He didn’t caption the photo which sparked a huge reaction from his fans, with some insisting they thought it was his famous mum in the image. 

"Such a beautiful woman," wrote one, while another said: "His mother!" and a third commented: "You really are so feminine and it is absolutely wonderful. You look so much like your beautiful mother as well."

Many more marvelled at the uncanny resemblance to Elizabeth and branded him, "lovely," and, "glorious".

Fans couldn't believe how much Damian looks like his mum 

Elizabeth chimed in herself and wrote: "I miss you," along with two heart emojis. The mother-son duo have spent the majority of the COVID-19 lockdown at her Herefordshire estate, but judging by the swimwear designer's comment, they're currently apart. 

Damian is following in his famous mum's modelling footsteps and Elizabeth couldn't be prouder of him. 

He has taken the modelling world by a storm and has featured in a number of high profile campaigns over the past few years.

Elizabeth and Damian are incredibly close 

Last year, Elizabeth shared her pride for her only son after he landed a modelling gig for Pat McGrath.

The actress shared a photo on Instagram from the shoot of the teenager posing alongside Irina Shayk, and wrote: "Proud Mama had to post this ravishing shot of my son @damianhurley1 with the gorgeous @irinashayk for the new @patmcgrathreal campaign shot by Steven Meisel."

Damian has also been studying photography, something Elizabeth says he is amazing at as well. 

"He has a really good eye," she said on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen's After Show in 2018. So much so, she admitted he often takes her infamous bikini snapshots.
