Miley Cyrus and Maxx Morando have quietly built one of Hollywood’s most intriguing modern love stories. What began as a low-key connection has slowly unfolded into a four-year romance rooted in creativity, comfort, and genuine compatibility. With the couple now reportedly engaged, here’s a full look at how their relationship evolved over the years.
How It All Started (2021)
Their story began privately long before anyone realized they were spending time together. Miley first hinted at Maxx’s presence in her life in September 2021, when she mentioned him in a Vogue interview while talking about a custom outfit collaboration. At the time, no one read much into it, but that small nod turned out to be the earliest sign of something more.
A couple of months later, in November 2021, the two were photographed together at Gucci’s “Love Parade” fashion show in Los Angeles. The photos sparked speculation, though neither of them commented publicly.
Going Public (2022)
By early 2022, whispers had turned into confirmation. Insiders shared that Miley and Maxx were officially dating, and by spring they were seen sharing affectionate moments in Los Angeles. Even with growing attention, the pair kept a low profile. They weren’t giving interviews or posting about each other; instead, they quietly nurtured their connection away from the spotlight.
They were occasionally spotted together, like during a dinner outing at Nobu in December 2022, reinforcing the idea that their relationship was steady, serious, and intentionally private.
A Creative Partnership Blossoms (2023)
In 2023 the world saw more of Miley and Maxx together. They appeared hand-in-hand at a Versace show in March, giving fans a clear look at their chemistry. Around the same time, Maxx’s role in Miley’s musical world became more evident. He contributed to her album Endless Summer Vacation, underscoring how their bond extended beyond romance and into creative collaboration.
Later in the year, Miley revealed in an interview that she and Maxx had actually met on a blind date. She spoke about her initial hesitation and how pleasantly surprised she was when everything clicked between them. It was the first time she openly discussed their origin story.
Growing Together and Moving In (2024)
By early 2024, their relationship had reached a new milestone—they moved in together at Miley’s Malibu home. Sources close to the couple described Maxx as a grounding presence in her life: calm, respectful, and supportive. Miley echoed that sentiment during the 2024 Grammy Awards when she referred to him as “my love” on stage after winning one of the biggest awards of her career.
They also attended major events together, including the SNL 50th Anniversary Special and later the Academy Awards. Each appearance showed how comfortable they had become as a couple in public.
A Relationship Built on Balance (2025)
Throughout 2025, Miley became more open about how different this relationship feels for her. She spoke in interviews about feeling respected, valued, and emotionally balanced with Maxx—something she hasn’t always experienced in her past relationships. Their bond appeared mature and steady, evolving naturally without theatrics or public drama.
Their red-carpet appearances throughout the year only reinforced that sense of ease. They weren’t trying to create headlines; they simply looked happy together.
The Engagement (December 2025)
The speculation about a possible engagement began when Miley attended the premiere of Avatar: Fire and Ash wearing a striking diamond ring on her left hand. Fans immediately noticed, and within days a source confirmed that she and Maxx are officially engaged.
The news didn’t feel rushed or shocking—it felt like the natural next step in a relationship that has grown quietly, steadily, and meaningfully over the past four years.
