Miley Cyrus is officially engaged. The 33-year-old global superstar is preparing for her second walk down the aisle, this time with her longtime boyfriend, musician Maxx Morando. After days of speculation sparked by a diamond ring spotted in her recent Instagram birthday photo dump, the singer confirmed the news with a public appearance alongside her fiancé. PEOPLE later verified the engagement through a close source.
The confirmation came on Monday, December 1, when Cyrus and Morando made a rare red carpet appearance at the Avatar: Fire And Ash premiere in Los Angeles. The couple, who have largely kept their relationship out of the spotlight, arrived dressed in coordinated all-black looks. While the appearance itself drew attention, it was Miley’s left hand that quickly became the focus.
Cyrus was seen wearing a cushion-cut diamond ring set in a chunky 14-karat yellow gold band. According to her representative, Francesca Consulting, who spoke to Page Six, the ring features an East-West set diamond, a more traditional and understated choice compared to many contemporary celebrity engagement rings.
Jewelry designer Jacquie Aiche is reported to have worked on the piece. The design includes a prominent center stone paired with a thick gold band, offering a timeless aesthetic rather than an overly experimental one. Harper’s Bazaar estimates the diamond’s length-to-width ratio at approximately 1.3, valuing the ring between 75,000 USD and 150,000 USD. Other industry experts suggest the price could reach as high as 450,000 USD, citing the stone’s estimated 4 to 5 carat weight.
Miley Cyrus and Maxx Morando began dating in 2021 after first being spotted together backstage at Miley’s New Year’s Eve Party in Miami. Their relationship became public in 2022 when they were photographed sharing intimate moments in West Hollywood. Reports later revealed the pair had been set up on a blind date and quickly formed a strong connection.
Despite a 6-year age difference, the couple has maintained a steady and private relationship over the past 4 years. Morando, a drummer and producer, has also collaborated creatively with Cyrus, strengthening their bond both personally and professionally.
As Cyrus enters this new chapter of her life, fans are celebrating the engagement as a moment of stability and happiness for the singer, who has been open about her personal growth in recent years. While no wedding date has been announced yet, the engagement marks a meaningful milestone in a relationship that has quietly stood the test of time.
