Miley Cyrus has revealed how she met her current boyfriend, Maxx Morando, in a rare update on her love life.
The Flowers singer, 30, grew up in the spotlight and has spent most of her life in the public eye as a result of her role as Hannah Montana in the classic Disney Channel series.
She has, however, managed to keep much of her connection with the Liily drummer firmly behind closed doors since they initially started dating ‘a couple of summers ago’.
She shared how they met in an honest new interview with British Vogue, accompanied a lovely photograph.
‘We got put on a blind date,’ she said. ‘Well, it was blind for me and not really for him. I thought, “The worst that can happen is I leave.”’
According to the outlet, the songwriter called during the interview, with Miley setting his ringtone to Erykah Badu track, Tyrone – calling it the ‘boyfriend sexy ringtone’.
Before sparking up a romance with Maxx, the We Can’t Stop musician was in a high-profile relationship with ex-husband Liam Hemsworth which spanned 10 years.
After she released her single, Flowers, and her Endless Summer Vacation album, fans have been theorizing that some of her lyrics point to their failed marriage.
Many also couldn’t overlook the fact that she dropped the music video to her hit song on Liam’s birthday.
‘I wouldn’t erase my story or want it to be erased,’ she added of their split. ‘Having an interesting life makes for interesting storytelling.’
Miley initially met the Hunger Games star on the set of their 2009 film, The Last Song, and they quickly became close, marrying in 2012.
They split up the following year before rejoining in 2016 – and they later married in a secret ceremony in December of 2018.
It wasn’t to last, and they announced their divorce in August, 2019, with the divorce finalised a few months later.
‘Liam and Miley have agreed to separate at this time,’ their reps said while confirming the separation.
‘Ever-evolving, changing as partners and individuals, they have decided this is what’s best while they both focus on themselves and careers.
‘They still remain dedicated parents to all of their animals they share while lovingly taking this time apart. Please respect their process and privacy.’
Miley made light of the controversy last March when she assisted a happy couple in getting engaged onstage during a performance in Brazil.
After cheering the lovebirds on, she joked: ‘Honey, I hope your marriage goes better than mine. Mine was a f**king disaster.’
