During a 2017 interview with Today, Hurley opened up about the different ways she maintains her youthful looks, with one of the most crucial parts being skincare.

"I have one serum I use all the time," she said. "You need to look after your skin. You need to look after your health. If you want to glow from the inside, you have to be healthy. You have to watch your diet. You have to watch your lifestyle. You have to get enough sleep."

Hurley also noted the importance of staying positive, adding, "We all get terrible knocks in life, all of us. Some people have terrible things they have to deal with. You see some people and they just manage to keep their attitude positive. They rise above stuff. Some people get angry. Sometimes I think to glow, you have to let go of a lot of stuff and move on. Be as nice as you can to everyone."
