Yeah, we’re still talking about Miley Cyrus and Liam Hemsworth. This wasn’t the messy breakup I was hoping for this summer, but it’s the messy breakup we’ve got, so let’s milk it for all its worth. When we last assessed the Breakup of the Summer, Liam’s family reportedly hoped he would never ever get back together with Miley. Miley, in turn, made a song about how the breakup is all Liam’s fault because of “whiskey and pills.” And don’t forget MOODY. Well, now E!’s sources claim that Miley and Liam’s families actually sort of hope they’ll eventually get back together, but only after they’ve had time to cool off. Or something:
Their families want them to breathe: “Their families have urged them to take some time to breathe before they make any final decisions,” the insider reveals. “They are both upset about how this has blown up and are both hurting right now.” The source explains that leading up to their wedding, “they were in a great place,” which inspired them to “finally tie the knot”. But afterwards, the source says, “Their relationship completely changed.”
Their priorities in life are different. “Miley got back in the studio and was focused and serious about her new music,” the insider says. Meanwhile, the insider claims, “Liam was continuing to party with his friends.” And, while she used to enjoy partying with Liam in the past, the insider says that the “Can’t Be Tamed” singer has actually become quite tame. “They used to party, but Miley outgrew that phase.”
Miley is “willing” to separate and see where they are after some time: The source shares that the two “plan to spend a lot of time apart,” which will be easy considering Liam is “clearing his head” in Australia with his family and Miley is in Los Angeles with her flirty friend Kaitlynn Carter. Moreover, the source reveals they are “trying not to communicate and really give each other space,” especially since they are “both hurting right now.” Yet, as history has proven, there is an undeniable attraction between the pair. The insider is adamant, “There’s definitely a chance that they will get back together…. Neither Miley or Liam have decided when they are going to take the next step of filing for divorce, because there is a chance of reconciliation.”
Yes, I’ve been wondering if either of them would actually file for divorce and get a lawyer and all of that. That might be too “real” for their melodrama though – right now, it’s fun for them to snipe at each other through unnamed sources to People and TMZ and Page Six. Will it stop being fun at some point? I don’t know. What’s the over/under on Miley and Liam getting back together, in your mind?
Meanwhile, were you wondering about Miley’s affair with Kaitlynn Carter? People Magazine had the scoop: Kaitlynn and Miley are “staying together” in LA after they came home from their Italian jaunt. A source tells People:
“Miley is very close with Kaitlynn. It’s romantic, but also a friendship,” the source says. “They are both going through similar stuff right now and are bonding over it.”
“Miley is okay, but you can tell she isn’t 100 percent happy,” the source says, adding that “she hasn’t talked to Liam” since after her rep [issued the split announcement]. Being back in L.A. has been difficult for Cyrus as Malibu and the surrounding areas are locations where joyous memories were made during her marriage.
“They had many happy days together in L.A. and now Liam is not around. It’s hard for her to be back in L.A. without him,” the source says. “This is not the situation that she wanted. She hoped they could figure things out.”
“At the end of the day, she wants to be happy, and she genuinely wants Liam to be happy too,” the insider added. Though Cyrus and Hemsworth have been separated for months, she is not rushing to file for divorce, according to a source who told PEOPLE: “They both agreed it’s better to spend time apart, but this doesn’t mean their relationship is completely over.”
Yeah if I was Kaitlynn, I’d already be looking for an exit strategy, because she’s about to become roadkill in the larger story of Miley and Liam’s eventual reconciliation. I hope Kaitlynn doesn’t have feelings for Miley, because Miley is clearly only in this to get back at and with Liam.

Both have issues and both love to party, and am not buying she’s grown out of it either. Both need to grow up and move on with their lives as its clear that their relationship/dynamic is toxic and dysfunctional. 2 messed up people don’t make for a healthy relationship, esp if one wants to settle down and the other doesn’t.
And yeah as I said in a previous thread, she’s only behaving like this to get attention from him – typical narc attention seeking stunt. Plus Miley’s team have only started with the getting back together narrative when all the others ones backfired. Run Kaitlynn, you are just a new plaything who will get hurt.
also, when they got back together last time her team used the same angle – Miley is straightened out, she is chill and put her party days behind her, etc. As if she needs to change for Liam. I think that is how they get their messages to Liam about her being ready for reconciliation It also conveniently makes Liam seem old fashioned, which appeals to a certain demographic and gives her an exit strategy when she wants to act more volatile. It paints him as restrictive and controlling when she doesn’t need to clean up her image anymore. I wish she would just embrace whatever she wants to be without going around in circles and blaming others for her reputation and marketing choices. Her PR is a mess.
I am less aware of Liam’s issues but I am sure he has some. There is a reason he is attracted to someone who keeps denying her readiness for a partnership and throws him under the bus all the time.
So much of the commentary around Miley feels purely based in misogyny and jealousy. As far as I’m aware neither he nor she have any known npd diagnosis – weird you think
or say otherwise as though accurate.
She does not seem anymore narcissistic than any other celebrity and seems more self aware and self deprecating than many
For all we know she is done with his brand of partying. For all we know he is in Australia trying to be done with it too.
It is not beyond the realms of possibility that she is the injured party here – except successful young woman
I wish we didn’t all feel the need to leap on board too
the misogyny argument is getting really old, fast. the more people overuse it, the less meaning it has to real situations.
Ascribing women’s motives to jealousy is a form of misogyny in itself. This is a celeb gossip site and we come here for escapism. Do misogynist sentiments sometimes arise? Sure. And they get called out when they do. But leave accusations of jealousy to teen dramas.
You’re right, maybe not about the jealousy part since the only enviable thing she really has going for her is money, but definitely about the misogyny part. People think pointing this out is the same thing as saying all criticism is bad, or misogynistic, or invalid, but that’s not what’s being argued. It is a real problem, and it’s not something that only involves or is unique to one woman or girl either.
Ascribing motives to misogyny can be a form of misogyny, I agree. However all the commentary around Miley is based on media reporting which is intrinsically and notoriously misogynistic. It is almost global Miley bad Liam good reporting.
Additionally simply because we are women does not mean we are immune from internalised misogyny.
Much commentary around women is based on norms from the male view and societal norms put in place from paternalistic views on appropriate behaviour.
Lots of women are uncomfortable with other women being openly sexual- even if it is part of a role they take on for their art. We feel our opinion on how a woman should behave comes from nowhere…..
Miley has received miles and miles of negative commentary for being a young woman deciding who she is. We feel free to police her and blame her because of our place in a paternalistic society. I do think we are often jealous of her and other young, successful women not bound by the day to day rules we feel and we lash out as a defence mechanism. I rarely see this happen to younger men.
Really agree with jenny and Bettyrose. Thought attributing celebrity criticism to jealousy was getting old.
Toxic relationship.
Probably both of them are drama queen who like this mess: messy breakup, hurt each other, and than we go back, BUT this time is the good one.
Yeah I mean they have some kind of insane attraction to each other which i think for the most part keeps them together but in real life, they don’t work together. Also didn’t her parents file for divorce like 2-3 times in the last several years but never went through with it? I have a feeling Miley and Liam will be off and on for essentially, ever. Like they might even marry new people for a time, but I could see them always finding their way back to each other. I had and aunt and uncle like that and my aunt was such a free spirit they ultimately got back together (for the millionth time) and agreed to never get married again because their relationship worked best when they both felt “free.”
I was in a toxic relationship with a class A++ narcissist, and what kept us going was the drama: breakup-make peace-go back together. The adrenaline was over the top. It took me a while to understand that it was not healthy, and a lot of strenght to cut him out of my life because I was like “intoxicated” or addicted to this “thing”, because when you go back it’s like being high, and than everyday life happens and you start to fight for the breakup again.
I can’t talk for them, but seeing their on and off I wonder if it’s like that for them too. And yes Miley is a mess, but Liam is as addicted to this as she is. She is not doing the on and off thing all alone.
Plenty of us had one of these at some point. Best case scenario, it ends, you learn from it and move into healthier relationships. That’s kinda what I thought was happening here, and it seems like a good move for both. Neither needs to be at fault for them just not to be good for each other.
Mikey is a bratty teen acting out like a tween. Her PR is trying to do damage control. I wouldn’t be surprised if she gets hospitalized or goes to rehab next. Remember the allergic reaction hospitalization a while back? Yeah there is a distinct pattern with these Hollywood kid stars.
She’s so immature,she really needs some alone time.
True, and people need to ignore her for awhile. She wants attention and could very well start acting out even more than usual to receive the most coverage possible.
Kaitlynn Carter is a beautiful, blonde LA model/actress and hanging out with Miley Cyrus made her a lot more famous than her tv show or fake marriage to Brody Jenner did. I think she’ll be just fine.
Ah, I get the connection now. I happened to catch an interview (repeat from mid-week) with a Brody Jenner fella yesterday. He’s down here in Australia doing a music tour. They tried to engage him in a discussion about his ex and MC, and he was having none of it. He was either well experienced in shutting down such questions, or just very Zen.
Well, he’s managed (as far as I know) to dodge all the Caitlynn questions so this should be a piece of cake. As for MC, isn’t this the same girl who frequently bragged about popping molly etc? Yeah..Liam is the party animal (sarcasm off).
I keep getting serious ’80s Rosanna Arquette vibes from the pics with the bangs.
I kinda feel bad spectating some of this stuff. Like, if I had relationship drama I certainly would not want a bunch of internet strangers tut tutting and speculating over it! Yikes!
Their people keep running to the tabloids, though.
I don’t think his people have engaged since hers made the initial drug allegation to TMZ. This “they could reunite” stuff is coming from her side. I think it’s probably true, because they can’t seem to quit each other, but I don’t think his people are talking anymore.
I think the “they’ll probably reconcile” talk sounds like it’s from her camp, not his!
There already was an article in People about reconciliation and after it her side accused him of partying and drugs etc. So it probably came from his side first.
Do you have a link for that? Every reconciliation article I’ve read quoted Miley sources. There have been a number of them saying it’s hard for her to let him go, she’s not ready to file for divorce, it’s hard being in LA without him, and now this E news one claiming their families want them to think about it.
I haven’t read anything that sounds like it’s coming from Liam saying he wants to get back together. I don’t know if he’s actually done with her, but his side hasn’t said anything like that to the press.
Thank God Miley already said she doesn’t want children,because can you even imagine an innocent child in the middle of this mess?They are both old enough to call this quits and stay away from each other.
I think the couple to get back together out of all this will be Kaitlynn and Brody. Brody has always been a kindred-spirit to his stepmom Kris, and knows how to milk fame out of drama. I side-eye all of this happening when The Hills has just relaunched, which I know isn’t what it used to be, but did anyone know who Kaitlynn was last week before this? And she was filming for The Hills a few weeks ago, so you just know that it’s going to play out on the show.
I watched about five minutes of the Hills reboot a couple of weeks ago. I tuned in as Linda (Brody’s mom) was mentioning that Kaitlyn needed to gain weight to have a baby. The following week in somewhat-real-life-tabloid-fodder land, we have the boat photos with Miley.
PR stunt is certainly one possibility for this entire thing. Except I’m not sure Liam got the memo. I remember how “over it” he looked during their last big breakup. I’ve always suspected Miley is more into him than vice versa.
Tin Foil Hat Time: I think Miley and Liam have been having issues for a very long time and I think that their split is genuine. I think Brody and Kaitlynn latched on for the tabloid drama.
@Kaiser: who’s messy breakup were you expecting this summer?
As for Liam & Miley, they suit each other as they are similar. So not surprised if they get back together.
Miranda Lambert & her Hot Cop. I thought they would be over by now.
I thought that one would have imploded by now, too. I’m still waiting because I feel it’s a distinct possibility at this stage of their marriage.
I feel like the best summer breakup was 2012 when Katie Holmes executed her brilliant undercover exit strategy.
Kate escape was epic!
Ben, Jen and the nanny was my personal fave. The drama!
We could do a special: “most messy breakup EVAH!” LOL.
+1 Katie Holmes and Suri’s Epic Escape!
Best Breakup Ever. Katie rocked it!
They need to not. Neither one seems mature enough to handle a relationship. It feels like this was all built on drama and narcissism. Both should go their separate ways and try to figure out why it is that they keep gravitating towards an unhealthy partnership. Lord knows I had to do that about a decade ago and while it was hard, it was the best thing I could have done for myself. They need to do the same.
I am already tired of them.
Word. Stop this.
Oh, yeah. But… I still want to see their drunk texts…
honestly would rather read a duchess of sussex report or even, heaven forbid, anything on presidente cheetos than be subjected to speculation about miley attention seeker cyrus
Who’s minding the animals and doing all this “loving co-parenting” while the two of them are gallivanting around the globe?
My dogs would hate it if I shuttled them off to a pet sitter or even a fancy doggy spa for weeks on end…
The pet sitter probably stays at their house so the pets aren’t moved
Not everyone is in a monogamous relationship, not every lover outside the couple is an “affair.” But the press love when they can shove that word into a story. We don’t really know what this or any couple considers cheating. Yet Miley is branded a cheater now. Ugh, it’s so personal and unfair.
Good point. I believe the reports about them having already been broken up (it probably happened in late July). This is not the first time this messy couple has done things like this. Whispers of them being done come out, one or both of them try to deny it and make their relationship look better than it is to the public (usually Miley’s team), then a few weeks later one of them is with someone else, the split is announced publicly, and we find out that they had already broken up privately. This time it’s just her moving on right away instead of him. They should definitely not get back together though, especially after she threw him under the bus.
there were literally sources from Liam’s side talking about Miley saying he was a drug addict was a distraction from her infidelity.
The press haven’t had to lift a finger, Miley did all the posting, singing and trash talking herself. She thrives on drama and negative attention.
Agree. She needs to shut her pie-hole.
Are people really branding her a cheater? TMZ, the DM, People, etc are all saying they broke up in June (even though they were photographed together on July 9th.) It seems like they’re buying her version more than the infidelity angle.
I very much doubt Kaitlynn will be hurt by any of this.
Just like Miley is into staging pap walks and a public make out session with a girl (just like the last time when she used Stella) to get back at Liam, K is into it for exposure and to raise her profile. Nothing about this “relationship” is genuine.
I suspect Liam’s family never contacted the Sun or E tonight. Sources close to his family? Maybe..to E tonight..but again, I don’t see his parents commenting to tabloids. Maybe Liam’s sister in law but that’s about it. Miley’s mom? Yes. Her dad? No. Their collective friends are different. But getting back together? Yes, I see it.
I’m not sure there’s any coming back from the allegations both camps have out out there about the other. Clearly, they both hate each other enough to allow people to spread these kinds of rumors.
I have a hard time believing he could forgive her for putting his issues on blast like that out of nowhere, but he hasn’t filed for divorce and they’ve broken up and gotten back together so many times, so who knows.
I feel like I’ve died and gone back to high school. Grow up you two.
“Miley Cyrus & Liam Hemsworth will probably get back together in a few months“
Because Miley is beginning to realize her PR strategy is backfiring on her and she’s hoping that putting that out to the tabloids will make her look better.
It’s too bad she is incapable of keeping her giant yap shut because he’s winning the PR war by simply saying next to nothing. I’m already exhausted at the thought of all the “scandalous” and “edgy” things she’s going to be doing soon to once again prove how free and empowered she is. I wonder who she’ll use as a stage prop in her next phase?
She’s still being photographed with her jump off so she doesn’t care that much how she’s being perceived.
They are both drama queens who deserve each other.
He’s into the drink and she’s into ladies on yachts. They both act like children, she’ll call him a cad and he’ll call her some Australian slang for American brat…and then they’ll kiss and make up.
Rinse and repeato.
I’m afraid you’re right,they’re not ready to break up and move on.IMO when people are truly over a relationship they don’t do this attack PR verbal bashing stuff.When I left my physically and verbally abusive ex many years ago I said nothing- he still wanted to argue and fight and I wouldn’t play that.He proceeded to bash me to anyone who would listen,and I said nothing to defend myself because I didn’t have to.The truth comes out eventually,and people can see who was right or wrong.
If you’re over it you have nothing to say,these two are trading insults through the media and are clearly still invested in their drama,it spells *not over*to me.Truly over is silence from both sides-wish the other person the best and go live your best life.
It’s different with celebrities though because fans and the press want to assign blame. They supposedly haven’t spoken to each other since she announced they separated, so it’s possible he is really done this time.
He tried to go the respectful route with his Instagram post and then she told TMZ that he did drugs and he said it was a deflection from her infidelity. Since then he’s been quiet and she’s still talking about how they could get back together and how it’s hard to be in LA without Liam.
It’s possible they get back together. I think it’s also possible she went a bridge too far and she knows it, so now she’s trying to soften the blow to keep that door open.
I agree kebbie,they have fans and images,but celebs have split more quietly,I suppose my overall guess based on what they’re doing is just that they don’t seem to be over, and I stupidly thought just a few days ago that it may really be through,time will tell..
Eh, I wouldn’t be surprised at all if they had an open relationship prior to the split. Not saying there couldn’t still have been infidelity, depending on the terms of the relationship, but I definitely got that impression based on Miley’s previous comments about how “modern” her marriage is/was and how nobody can possibly understand it.
Miley clearly got a Ph.D in Madonna’s Method of Narcissistic Attention-Grabbing.
I walked into the grocery last night and every stand had a People magazine with Miley’s face taking up most of the cover, except for the blaring headline at the bottom: “Why I left Liam for a woman”.
Way to heap embarrassment on top of pain, Miley. If Liam has ANY self-respect your relationship is toast forever.
Yeah. Clearly these two have no idea what real love is. Whatever they are doing or have going on, it’s not love. I’m sure they’ve bought into this belief that they are soulmates but they have a toxic relationship. They need to be done with each other and move on.
Lol “family sources” Aka team Cyrus.
Chris Hemsworth has all but put his distaste for Miley on blast. No one on team Hemsworth is advising a reconciliation.
Miley and her vile Momager are scrambling because Billy managed to kick her ass on the charts this year and nobody cares what any of Miley’s musical face masks has to say.
I feel a tiny bit bad for Kaitlynn because she is a pawn in Miley’s game and will end up being alone and probably without Miley as a friend.
Liam, RUN!
Before last week, most people hadn’t heard of her. Now she’s everywhere. She’ll be fine.
That sounds like a story emailed to the paps by a very hopeful Cyrus family member … waves to Billy Rae 🙋🏻♀️
I’m thinking their marriage wasn’t even legit real. If it wasn’t, Liam needs to run. Miley is straight up toxic in pretty much every single way you can be. She’s selfish, she’s trashy, she’s a big mouth, she’s indiscrete, she’s deranged and she clearly has substance abuse issues. She is Britney 2.0 but with only one redeeming quality, she seems to love her pets. That’s it.
yes, I’m also anticipating a britney-esque breakdown coming up soon. all the signs are there, and it appears to be inevitable to those consumed by the celebrity machine.
People saying Miley isn’t “playing it right” and that’s why Liam is winning the public are being naive. She’s a bisexual woman whose entire act these past years (minus the fail throwback to being a wholesome country girl) has been “hey, look at me, I do sex!”, and Liam is a white straight guy.
We know whose side people will take.
Can’t say I like Miley, but you can be critical of her thirst and her racism without being sexist or biphobic, jsyk…
I wonder if she might be bipolar.
She blew up her life with the whole I’m-ratchet-now/twerk/drugs/Robyn Thicke thing. Then she settled down and also had a bit of a rough time after her house burned down. Now she’s blowing up her life again.
It could be immaturity. It could also be a genuine mental health issue. It is possible for people with bipolar disorder to have cycles that last five years. Hers would have to be longer than that, since the Robyn Thicke performance was in 2013, but it is possible.
