Miley Cyrus has been a prominent figure in the entertainment industry since her Disney Channel days on Hannah Montana. Along with her successful career, her personal life, particularly her relationships, has often been in the spotlight. This article provides a comprehensive timeline of Miley Cyrus’ dating history.
Early Relationships
Cyrus’ early relationships included romances with fellow Disney star Nick Jonas and model Justin Gaston. Her relationship with Jonas began in 2006 and lasted for two years. They met at a charity event, and Cyrus described it as love at first sight. The pair even collaborated professionally, with the Jonas Brothers opening for Cyrus’ Best of Both Worlds tour. Their breakup inspired Cyrus’ hit song “7 Things.”

Following her split from Jonas, Cyrus dated Justin Gaston, a model and musician who appeared in Taylor Swift’s “Love Story” music video. They met through her father, Billy Ray Cyrus, and dated for approximately a year. Cyrus described Gaston as respectful and selfless, but the relationship ended before she began filming The Last Song.
Liam Hemsworth: A Decade of Romance
Cyrus’ most significant relationship was with actor Liam Hemsworth. Their romance began in 2009 on the set of The Last Song. The couple’s relationship was characterized by on-again, off-again periods, including an engagement in 2012, a subsequent breakup, and a re-engagement in 2016.

They surprised fans with a secret wedding in December 2018, but separated just seven months later. The divorce was finalized in 2020. Cyrus later spoke publicly about the difficulties of their very public separation.
Relationships After Liam Hemsworth
Following her divorce from Hemsworth, Cyrus had several shorter relationships. She briefly dated actor Patrick Schwarzenegger, son of Arnold Schwarzenegger and Maria Shriver, in 2015. The relationship ended after five months.

It ended amicably by the end of the summer. Shortly after her separation from Hemsworth in 2019, Cyrus was seen with reality TV star Kaitlynn Carter. Their relationship was short-lived, ending after a month. Later that year, Cyrus began dating Australian singer Cody Simpson. They were frequently seen together and collaborated on music, but ultimately split in 2020 after 10 months of dating.
