Cyrus reveals Morando proposed during a trip to Asia, celebrating their four-year relationship and her personal growth since they met.

Miley Cyrus has confirmed her engagement to her partner of four years, musician Maxx Morando.

The three-time Grammy winner was seen wearing a gold and diamond ring on her engagement finger at the premiere of Avatar: Fire and Ash in Los Angeles on Monday.

In an interview with US TV show Good Morning America on Wednesday, the 33-year-old said Morando had proposed during a recent trip to Asia.

“I am not easy to surprise because I love to control every situation and I had completely surrendered and I’m telling you, I was so, so, so surprised,” she said.

Cyrus, whose hits include Flowers and Party in the USA, previously married Australian actor Liam Hemsworth in 2018. The couple, together for a decade, announced their divorce in 2019.

Speaking to British Vogue in 2023, Cyrus said she and 27-year-old Morando met after being “put on a blind date.” Morando is a drummer with LA-based band Liily, which participated in NBC’s Miley’s New Year’s Eve Party hosted by Cyrus in 2022 alongside musicians including her godmother Dolly Parton and David Byrne.

Holding up her ring, Cyrus told Good Morning America that Morando “did good” with the choice.

“Me and Max have been together for four years and it’s very obvious the drastic amount of growth that I’ve had in those four years,” she said.

“You want to have someone by your side that always tells you you can do it.”

Cyrus’ latest song, Dream as One, is featured in the new Avatar instalment. She released her ninth album earlier this year but said she has “no desire” to tour, citing challenges in maintaining sobriety and mental health on the road. (Arise News)
