Ugh, I don’t know what to think of this mess. Miley Cyrus and Liam Hemsworth may be officially OVER, except that they aren’t announcing anything officially. I guess it’s not Liam’s style to have his publicist make an announcement – maybe Liam’s public statement is the fact that he’s in Australia right now without Miley. Meanwhile, Miley won’t shut up, but she just hasn’t issued any specific statement about whether she and Liam have really broken off their engagement. Maybe it was always going to end like this – maybe it was always going to be a mess. She’s only 20 years old. That’s a pretty sloppy age for most young women (I was sloppy when I was 18-21). Anyway, Page Six’s “sources” are throwing down the split gauntlet this morning – it’s up to Miley to deny this story at this point:
Miley Cyrus has split with her fiancé, “Hunger Games” star Liam Hemsworth, multiple sources tell Page Six. Hemsworth has jetted off to his native Australia because, we are told, “He needed to get away from Los Angeles and spend some time with his brother and friends.”
One source said, “Miley and Liam are done; it’s over. She likes to party really hard and can be pretty wild. It became a problem for him.”
Another source added, “They have broken up before, and are broken up again now. There was drama because she suspected he had a wandering eye. And she recently tweeted a denial that he cheated.
“While Miley has insisted they are still together, right now they are very, very much apart,” the insider said.
Hemsworth, 23, has been spotted Down Under with his “Thor” star brother, Chris Hemsworth, sister-in-law Elsa Pataky and niece India Rose.
Meanwhile, days ago, former “Hannah Montana” star Cyrus was photographed outside an LA recording studio without her engagement ring. She’s been trying for a big career comeback with her fourth album, working with collaborators including Dr. Luke and Pharrell Williams.
Amid rumors of a split, Cyrus tweeted on March 6, “I am so sick of La. And sick of the lies that come with it. I didn’t call off my wedding. Taking a break from social media. #draining.” She also wrote that her new album will “shut everyone up.”
Cyrus and Hemsworth became engaged last May when he presented her with a 3.5-carat diamond ring. But recently rumors have swirled that they’re going through a rough patch. Another source added, “Miley is a fiery character, and they do fight, but she is crazy about Liam. She isn’t ready to accept it might be over for good.” Reps for Cyrus and Hemsworth didn’t get back to us last night.
I wonder if Page Six has sources in both the Team Liam camp and the Team Miley camp? How else do you explain that wildly different theories about why they (probably) broke up? Or maybe they broke up because of different things – for Liam, he couldn’t handle Miley’s partying and “wild” ways (or her hair?), and Miley couldn’t handle Liam’s wandering eye (and dong). Do we have to assign teams with this breakup? Can’t we just say that it was always going to be a mess and they both made mistakes within the relationship and it’s probably a good thing they never married?

I think both of them are too young and immature to even consider marriage. Some people have that maturity at a young age, but these two don’t. If they really are broken up, I am not surprised and it is probably for the best.
It’s all in how you’re raised. Liam seems to be from a close knit family with strong bonds. It’s telling that he went home to be with his family and friends to ‘ground’ himself. That’s a very mature thing to too.
I think he’s the more mature of the two and I really don’t think 23 is too young to be/get married. Many, many couples marry right out of college (at 21 and 22-years-old), begin their careers together, start a family, and make it through the long haul just fine.
Miley has been on a ‘Isn’t sex, life, and sex great!’ ride since she was 15-years-old. Her party may not end for several more years, and there’s nothing wrong with that. If it’s not ‘meant to be’ for them, now is the time to find out. Miley will be a great catch for some lucky guy in 5 or 6 years. And who knows? It just might be Liam. 🙂
I’m sorry, your post is too cogently and thoughtfully composed. You will have to leave the Internet. 🙂
Excellent points. My husband and I got marred at 22 and we’re still going strong ten years on. Many who meet us would probably consider us dull.
@Seagulls …
Good on you and your husband. 🙂
And dull is a relative word. These days, my idea of a ‘great time’ is reading a really good book.
Great post. I’m rooting for them both. I’ve been with my husband since I was 21 so I know younger relationships can last (it’s been 20 years), and I’m still rooting for them, maybe because she DID come from such a crazy background and I want her to find something normal. Only time will tell.
“And who knows, it just might be Liam.”
My thoughts exactly. If they’re meant to be then they will find their way back together eventually. No need to rush into marriage.
I disagree with you. If he were the mature one, he would have ended his relationship and made the announcement publicly before flirting with other women, publicly. And, if Liam thought he was mature enough to consider marriage, then he should have chosen an older, unknown actress like his brother did. Miley is more famous than he is, and she still has the potential for a career. Plus, she is too young to play the stay-at-home wife role. A mature person would have considered those facts before becoming engaged.
@Evyn, who wrote: “I disagree with you. If he were the mature one, he would have ended his relationship and made the announcement publicly before flirting with other women, publicly.”
There are still some men who are gallant enough to allow the lady to announce a split (it used to be considered ‘polite’ as it allowed the lady to save face and avoid embarrassment).
And from all reports, all Liam did was talk to the ‘other woman’ most of the night at a party. I don’t recall an mention of kissing or extreme touching, and as someone said, it wasn’t bad enough for anyone to snap off a camera phone photo. So how is the incident even considered flirting?
Emma, this is a perfect post.
I’ve been with my fiance since we were 14. We ‘dated’ in 7th grade for a few weeks (I mean 7th grade dating doesn’t really count, it’s just heehhee I have a boyfriend) , and neither of us dated anyone between then and 9th grade when we started going out again. He’s 23 now, I’ll be 23 in may. We’re getting married next August. We’re crazy about each other. And probably could be considered a relatively boring couple because we enjoy just cooking, or watching tv, or doing pretty much nothing together. We don’t go out an party other than on a few occasions.
We both come from very tight knit families, and for us, things work. We’re happy. I don’t care if some people consider us too young to settle down, or go on the tangent of “Oh, you should have dated around more” because I really honestly believe I’ll be marrying the right person.
Nothing wrong with a sex life that started at 15? Mmkay!
agreed, I wasn’t anywhere near mature enough to marry at 20 or even 23 whereas my best friend was. Since she got engaged I didn’t think it would last because of that. I think she just needs to spend more time figuring out who she is/wants to be.
Yeah, at this point it’s probably “all of the above”. This is for the best,imo.
I wish there was a pic to go with this story of him being seen with his brother and family, because I love seeing Chris with that baby!
Me too! A hot man holding his baby just makes him even hotter!
Yes!
Yes! I have a major crush after watching red dawn. As long as his wife walks far enough away I can hold my hand over in picture and pretend he’s alone.
If you close one eye, she is easily erased by a well-placed thumb.
They seem far too young and immature to get married. I don’t blame them for not making an official announcement, but Miley should have stayed off Twitter altogether.
Hey, maybe Miley and the Biebs can get together now that they’re both single!
The Biebs…oh, Faye, NOOOOOOO!!!!
@JudyK – Come on, it would be an entertaining trainwreck of epic proportions. Can you imagine the Twitter fodder potential alone :)?
Miley can wear clown pants, and Beiber can get a clown haircut. I like it.
Match made in heaven! She thinks she’s a punk, he thinks he’s a gangster and neither one of them realizes that we are all laughing at them. posers.
I was crazy from 20-21 and my now hubby and I broke up for a while too while we were still dating so I get that she needs “Miley time” to figure herself out. Liam just seems more settled in himself than she is
Hey i love that idea!!! pls gossip genie make it happen. how awesome would a douche off between miley and the biebs be?
I think Liam may seem like the more mature one. But although Miley has a wild child image, she wasn’t the one hooking up with January Jones. Hooking up with a woman who probably for all intents and purposes got knocked up with a married man’s kid is probably not the most mature thing to do. And getting caught by the paps is also up there in stupidity.
If he wanted out, this wasn’t the way to go about it. Miley FTW, because I support my fellow women.
@ Anna
I totally agree with you. So Liam is tired of Miley’s hard partying? How convenient. How about Miley is tired of Liam’s wandering eye/dong.
Liam isn’t that mature if he can’t own up to his own indiscretions. I am sick of the woman having to take it up the arse every single time — & you know why? Women don’t even get the respect of fear.
Agreed!
How do you know that Liam didn’t end it before his ALLEGED ‘hook up’? For all we know, they both called it quits and Liam gave Miley the option to handle it in the press however she wanted. It is looking pretty clear that they are over, and Miley is choosing to play games with the story in the press.
So right – early 20s are a “sloppy” age for many women. I can’t imagine adding fame and unlimited $ to the mix.
They’re both too young to be in committed relationships.
I could see Miley heading down the wrong path very easily tho……she should stay away from Chateau M
+1
The real danger time for her will be if not much comes of her music. I think she has accepted that she won’t make it in movies and threw herself into music. If that doesn’t work out (I don’t think it really will. i am thinking a dance hit or two at best) what then?…..
I don’t really agree with 20 is a sloppy age for most women. I hate that women under a certain age all get generalized into one. I got engaged and married at 21, been with my husband for 2+ years before we got married, and he’s only 3 years older, not once have we broken up. I think it depends on the person and how you’re raised. By 17/18 I was done partying and hooking up with random guys. I can’t speak for all 20+ women but most of us nowadays have our shit together better than some 30+ women.
I agree, we shouldn’t generalize. But Miley, specifically, is pretty sloppy right now. She’s still sowing her wild oats, or whatever the term is 🙂
To be completely fair, our emotional capacity doesn’t stop maturing until age 26 so yeah I can see how early twenties are a messy time for both genders.
I agree that they are both too young and immature.
There will be better days ahead for both of them. If I had it to do over, I wouldn’t marry until I was at least in my 30s, but, unfortunately, life does not come with an eraser.
Yep we all think we know everything when we’re young but 25 years down the line and none of those couples I knew who married out of college or high school are still together. That includes a couple matches everyone thought would last forever.
honestly I can believe both sides, they are way too young to be engaged.
I don’t think this was ever really going to end any other way.
A very young couple where one half’s career is on the rise, the other half’s is on the fall, then throw in an identity crisis for good measure and a liberal dash of immaturity and you’ve got the perfect recipe for an almighty mess.
Ugh they are both such douchebags.
Non of them seem devasted about their separation/break up. They are both too young anyway, who cares. Liam looks good.
Yep. No-one’s crying a river. They were never going to actually get married.
Agree with all…too young. She’s too immature. Miley and her family would be such high maintenance and drama. Liam’s family are so normal and grounded in comparison. I suspect Liam would have been advised by his family to have fun with Miley (in a nice way) and not to marry her. Chris is such a good role model for him. Liam can do much better. I want a Liam/Emma Watson pairing!
If Liam had really cheated on Miley with January there would be far more PR from her side calling him out….so far not much.
As sad as it is I think this break up, assuming the rumors are true, is what is best for Miley and Liam. They’re both too young, immature and simply not ready for marriage.
Miley needs to give Taylor Swift a call. They’ll write the Breakup anthem to end all Breakup anthems. It has all the potential ingredients to make it work. Hot guy(Liam) sweet misunderstood girl(Miley) man stealing hoebag(January).I’m loling just thinking about it
Sadly, it won’t happen because Taylor swift does not like Miley and her family very much….she is properly happy about this alongside Selena Gomez.
That’s her plan FOR SURE.
Her team is going to use this breakup to build so much anticipation for her next album. Poor Miley in a “I’m not a girl, not yet a woman” type angle. It would be hard to get enough people excited about her return to music without some drama.
well in that case.am looking for for catching fire promotion..so they can ask her about it
Eh, if a guy breaks up with you over how you choose to wear your hair, he’s prob not marriage material anyway. Not that I buy this rumor being true.
So Liam was engaged and cheats but since he is cute, it is no big deal? That is pathetic.
Miley isn’t a newbie, she has been working for years, so she doesn’t get a pass for her obnoxious, extremely immature behavior. I have yet to see her held accountable by herself or others for any of her mistakes.
Miley makes sure everyone knows everything about her life so if they had broken up before he cheated, I feel confident there would have been talk of it.
I’m not sure what I believe on that. I kind of figure they were already over and that’s why he did it (if he did it) so publicly.
Thank you!!! I think that she is a brat, and I hate how both she and her team handled that racist photo that she took with her friends where they are mocking the Asian kid who is with them. Disgusting. I love how she was let off of the hook for that and then made to be some kind of hero for being an “ally” for gay rights…apart from that I do feel a bit bad for her in this situation, it is a total MESS. But she is young, she will get over it.
I assume he broke up with her and was leaving the announcement up to her so she could do it in her own time. She appears to be someone that doesn’t take well to being dumped and was still trying to control him by wearing her ring and denying a breakup. She’s just trying to make him look bad and make herself look like the poor victim. This child has never had anyone set limits on her or told her no. She’s not liking that she can’t control him anymore.
^^This.
Hey Miley,if Gloria Gaynor survived it , so can you!”First she was afraid ,she was petrified,kept thinking how shed ever lived w/o him by her side,but then she spend so many nights thinking how he did her wrong,and she grew strong and learned to get along,you too Miley !
If she was smart, she would choose this time to thrive, but I think she’ll be very close to a mess.
She’s never NOT been a mess. When she was Hannah Montana I was a little surprised that so many people let their kids idolize her so much. She was making poor decisions way back then and nobody was doing anything about it. Nobody.
The only thing I found interesting about these two is that they got engaged at such a young age. As everyone has said, they’re both very young – way too young to get married. So the break up was to be expected. *yawn*
Marriage at that young age is a very bad idea. You can’t possibly have really found yourself yet, I don’t care how successful your career is, your bones are still forming, including the bones in your noggin.
Smartest move these two have made in quite a while.
I am ashamed of how invested I am in this story. It’s really embarrassing. I want to think I am just naturally attracted to the name Hemsworth.
ha ha, whatever helps you sleep at night j. or maybe you’re just trying to keep up on the family gossip so as not to be blind sided at the next dinner?
It really had been easier this trip what with her gone and Budgetboy drunk and shirtless. CHemboy is so much more relaxed and that is working out well for everyone. *grins*
I think they both dodged a bullet. It’s pretty clear that neither one of them was ready for a real commitment. They probably had that super-intense infatuation at the beginning of their relationship and mistook chemistry for true love. I know too many people who’ve ended up in terrible marriages that way.
Ooh, Miley and Liam broke up? Shocking!!! Here’s my ‘shocked’ face: -_-
I don’t know anything about recording music, but doesn’t it seem like she’s been doing this “album” for a long time now? Is it typical for albums to take a long time to be made? I’m not trying to be snide, I’m just ignorant when it comes to the music industry.
Also, isn’t it common for twenty-somethings to break up and make up? I mean, we can’t expect them to be the most grounded, especially living in Hollywood, right? Maybe I’m just old and need more coffee. 🙂
they are very young with the added pressure of being in hollywood. it’s probably for the best.
Oh so that is how he wants to spin it? Honestly, there’s been rumors of him cheating for AGES. Even during their break before they got together again he was all over Amanda Bynes, right before she lost her damn mind. Google the pictures.
And if her not being at home enough or cutting her hair super short are huge issues for him it says more about him than it does about her. She’s young. She should party while she can. Life gets real too fast and the you wish you had partied more because then you can’t. You’re too busy or too tired, or you have babies, etc.
Also, I always found her obnoxious but ever since I noticed that she’s a cutter and then her career not really taking off after becoming an adult, I feel for her. She was put in this business too young and now it’s hard for her to find a place in the business. People need to cut her some slack. Liam never took her seriously and girls like Miley tend to put up with so much crap and then take it out on their bodies.
But, he shouldn’t have to stay with her because she’s a cutter and because her career never took off. He was a child himself when he got involved with her. She’s a self destructive person and he’s probably coming to terms with the fact that no matter what he does, that’s not going to change. People are blaming the stupid haircut when they need to be looking at all of her other behavior.
When did I say that? Break up with her then. Don’t propose to calm her down and then cheat on her with famous women at parties where there’s reporters and photographers. That’s vindictive. Especially when you know she’s unstable. Don’t get involved with unstable girls if you can’t handle it, but don’t use it against them as a reason to cheat.
How difficult it is to not be a total douche to your ~fiancee? Easier to keep a famous gf because you need the press so your career picks up.
Annie, how difficult is it to not make assumptions when you don’t have any of the facts?
As is often the case, maybe Liam fell for Miley without realizing her issues were bigger than they seemed… MAYBE she even managed to hide her issues…. which many are able to do early in a relationship. Maybe she even faked who she really was… and tried to change herself. That is Liam’s fault?? MAYBE once the ‘issues’ became more apparent, he was already involved enough with her, and wanted to help her work through them? MAYBE they worked through the issues on and off…. and then maybe, just MAYBE things spiraled and Liam finally got to a place where he realized it wasn’t going to work, and broke it off…….and DIDN’T cheat on her. Hell, he might even be taking all of this shit from judgmental women who don’t have a clue what really went on, in order to let Miley save face…. now THAT would make him truly horrible wouldn’t it?
I just can’t bring myself to take sides or call anyone the bad guy.I think these two were in love and were just moving too fast.They’re acting like normal 20 year olds.I also happen to think that Miley was in a super hurry to get married and get rid of the “Disney star” image.Just like she spent the last two years talking about smoking weed and loving sex and cursing like a sailor in interviews,getting married was just another way to show she is a grown woman now. Too soon.
Excellent, this is the 1st mature move that either of them have made.
If you are too young, doubtful etc..then call it off!
Good for them, it’s the right move.
I still don’t think this relationship was real. I think it was a PR invention to transition him into the American movie market. And I dont’ think she was truly aware of how much Liam was going to stick to that plan.
I am glad they are over. The average 20 year has no business getting married. Especially when they clearly have no idea of who they are or who they want to be. As human, we are constantly growing and changing. But btwn the ages of 18-24, you change at rapid speed. You really shouldn’t make any wild, semi permanent decisions doing that time. Miley comes off unsure of herself and a poser b/c she is always changing. Every time you turn around, she has a new style or attitude. It is pretty common for someone her age but it is the main reason she shouldn’t be getting married. She should try to figure out who the hell she is first. And, if Liam really does have a wandering eye, getting married won’t change that.
They are both young! It’s really not that shocking that they broke up. Liam is only 23 – he SHOULD date more women before settling down and Miley should date other men before getting married.
Miley should get somebody that is rocker too so she can party as hard as she wants to.
So Liam cheated with January Jones, and his team is spinning this as they’re done because Miley parties too much? Couldn’t they have come up with something a bit more logical like he wants to be with other women and was too chicken to tell her he wanted out?
Unfortunately, it looks like a lot of people are happy to blame her because Liam is, like, so cute.
So…that’s how he’s going to play it. She parties too hard, which gave him no choice but to cheat, but he’s taking the high road because she’s a partier. Right… Isn’t he a swell guy?
sorry fans but ive seen miley as nothing but a Twittered out spaz with AADD since she surfaced in my celebrity world…
i don’t know these folks, but i suspect liam prefers to be a bit lowkey and it’s gotta be hard keeping up w/ miley, in pics she always seems to be ‘going’ (talking, laughin, gesturing)..
then again, i’m like 41 and dont really care!
I had a feeling this wasn’t going to end well. They’re too young.
Well, Justin Bieber is single again maybe these two would want to try dating. That would be something worth watching.
I find it weird Liam is the one who “broke up” with Miley! o_O
Miley has been wild for how many years now? This report is bull…. ( No offense to Celebitchy)! Liam knew how Miley was when he asked her to marry him!
How often do we hear about Miley partying? No often!
