Miley Cyrus Is Engaged to Musician Maxx Morando After 4 Years of Dating

The pair were first linked in late 2021

Miley Cyrus will soon be in her wedding “Flowers” era.

The singer, 33, is engaged to musician Maxx Morando, a source confirmed.

The news of the couple’s engagement comes after Cyrus stepped out to the Avatar: Fire and Ash world premiere in Los Angeles on Monday, Dec. 1, sporting a diamond ring on her left-hand ring finger. She flashed the glitzy jewelry as she and Morando, 27, posed for photos together on the red carpet.

Cyrus was first spotted wearing the ring around mid-November, according to Deux Moi. 

Francesca Consulting, a rep for jewelry designer Jacquie Aiche, confirmed that Aiche made the “bespoke” ring, which features a cushion-cut stone set on a thick, 14-karat yellow gold band.

The three-time Grammy winner and the drummer were first romantically linked in December 2021, when they were photographed getting close backstage during Cyrus’ NBC holiday special, Miley’s New Year’s Eve Party, in Miami.

Months later, in April 2022, they seemingly confirmed their romance when they were spotted passionately kissing while out in West Hollywood.

In a cover story interview for British Vogue in June 2023, Cyrus shared the sweet story of how she and Morando first met.

“We got put on a blind date,” the Hannah Montana alum said at the time.

“Well, it was blind for me and not really for him,” she then clarified. “I thought, ‘The worst that can happen is I leave.’ “

Last year, Cyrus touched on the couple’s six-year age difference in a November 2024 interview with Harper’s Bazaar. She said their age gap works because they “just don’t take life too seriously,” though she noted that Morando “looks at life really differently than I do.”

“He grew up with a laptop. I had a desktop computer that I shared with my brothers and sisters,” she explained. “Honestly, he’s raised our dog off Reddit. I’m like, ‘Are you sure we’re supposed to be doing this?’And he’s like, ‘On Reddit it says blah, blah, blah.’ “

A source told PEOPLE in March 2024 that the two had taken a big step in their relationship and were living together.

“She is very happy with him,” the insider said at the time, adding, “Miley has changed a lot in the past couple of years. She seems more calm and harmonious. Everyone loves Maxx. He’s a great guy. He’s private and doesn’t like being in the press. It’s been good for her.”

Amid their personal relationship, Cyrus and Morando, who currently plays drums for the band Liily, have collaborated professionally. Morando worked on two tracks “Handstand” and “Violet Chemistry” from Cyrus’ 2023 album, Endless Summer Vacation. Morando also produced several songs on her ninth album, Something Beautiful, and co-wrote the title track.

When Cyrus won Record of the Year for her hit “Flowers” at the 2024 Grammys, she gave a sweet shout-out to her now-fiancé in her acceptance speech. In addition to thanking her team, she paid tribute to Morando, who was sitting in the audience, calling him “my love.”

Cyrus was previously married to actor Liam Hemsworth from December 2018 to August 2019.
