He has forged a close bond with his mother Elizabeth Hurley's former flame Hugh Grant whom he dotingly refers to as 'Uncle Hugh'.
And Damian Hurley, 15, cheekily teased his godfather, 57, that he is taller than him now when he posted a sweet throwback picture on Instagram on Saturday.
The teen shared the snap of himself aged 10 accompanying the Hollywood actor to his film premiere The Pirates! In An Adventure with Scientists! in London in March 2012.

'Who would have thought I’d be the taller one now?' Elizabeth Hurley's son Damian, 15, cheekily teased his godfather Hugh Grant as he shared sweet throwback picture on Instagram on Saturday (pictured together in London, March 2012)
In the snap, dapper Hugh put an affectionate hand on the little boy's shoulder showing how close they are when they graced the red carpet together.
Now more than five years later, Damian poked fun at his godfather as he revealed he is taller than The Bridget Jones heartthrob in a tongue-and-cheek fashion.
Elizabeth's son, whose father is entrepreneur Steve Bing, wrote: 'Who would have thought I’d be the taller one now?'

Before Damian and Hugh attended their first premiere together, Elizabeth joked that her son had been banned from seeing most of Hugh's films because of swear words.
She did however admit she would let him watch her own films including Austin Powers and Bedazzled which had an age 15 rating.
'We're always trying to find something that Uncle Hugh has done that he can see, but they're full of swear words,' she told The Telegraph in 2010.

'We can't find any! He can't watch Four Weddings And A Funeral. He can't watch About A Boy. It's quite difficult trying to find stuff for kids.'
Elizabeth and Hugh enjoyed a high-profile romance which grabbed attention in the 1990s but the past lovers split amicably in May 2000 after 13 years together.
The model first propelled into the limelight on the arm of the hunky superstar when she wore a black Versace safety pin dress for Four Weddings and a Funeral premiere.

The former flames have remained close and as they live round the corner from one another, the BAFTA winner and his godson have gone from strength to strength.
Proving they are still close, Damian accompanied Hugh to the London premiere of his latest movie Paddington 2 in November.
Paddington 2 follows on from the first movie which ended with the nation's favourite bear happily living with the Brown family in Windsor Gardens.
Hugh takes on a new role as the somewhat shady, charming actor Phoenix Buchanan, whose career has diminished in recent years.

Keep it chic in a ruffle sleeve pencil dress like Liz Hurley
Elizabeth Hurley looked sensational on the red carpet at the Paddington 2 premiere in London last month, attending alongside her son Damian.
And whilst he looked very dapper in his suit, it was of course Liz who stole the show rocking a pencil dress by Antonio Berardi teamed with metallic heeled sandals and a clutch.
We're loving the fitted silhouette of this dress which shows off Liz's incredible figure; meanwhile the ruffle sleeve detail is a fun twist.
So inspired by Liz's chic look (as you cannot buy this dress) we've rounded up some fab similar styles in the carousel below, with options from Antonio Berardi, Missguided, Roland Mouret and Keepsake.
Style with pointed courts for your next night out!
