On the blue carpet of the 2025 Met Gala, White Lotus star Patrick Schwarzenegger had a notably awkward moment when he spotted his ex, Grammy-winning singer Miley Cyrus, posing on the iconic Metropolitan Museum of Art steps. Though the two shared no conversation, fans couldn’t help but notice the glance Schwarzenegger cast in Cyrus’s direction, sparking amusement among followers.
The pair dated about a decade ago during one of Cyrus’s breaks from her on-and-off relationship with Liam Hemsworth. Miley eventually married Hemsworth, but their union ended within a year.
Cyrus stunned in a bold all-black leather ensemble featuring an open torso and matching skirt, finishing the look with a sleek braid. Schwarzenegger complemented her with a sharp black striped suit paired with a bright yellow blouse. He was accompanied on the carpet by his White Lotus co-star Aimee Lou Wood.
Currently, Schwarzenegger is engaged to longtime partner Abby Champion, while Cyrus is dating musician Maxx Morando.
Wood also shared how Schwarzenegger helped ease her nerves at the event, telling media, “But Patrick—thank God. He was like, ‘I’m going. Should we go together in the car?’ And I said, ‘Yes, please.’ … So, we came in the car together and that made everything a lot less scary.”
The White Lotus season 3 cast continues to enjoy widespread praise from both critics and fans alike, riding high on the show’s success.
