Born in Cairo, Egypt, Hurst was the youngest son of hydrologist Harold Edwin Hurst and a descendant of Isambard Kingdom Brunel. Raised in Oxfordshire, Hurst was educated at the Dragon School and University of Oxford.[1]

An Oxfordshire Youth Services product, Hurst played his senior rugby with Wasps and was capped once by England, as a winger against Scotland at Murrayfield during the 1962 Five Nations Championship.[2]

Hurst was a solicitor by profession. He met his wife Bernadita Barriga on a rugby union tour to Chile.[3]
