Miley Cyrus and Maxx Morando turned heads on the red carpet at the premiere of Avatar: Fire and Ash in Los Angeles — and not just because of their glam looks. Fans quickly noticed a sparkling diamond ring on Cyrus’s left hand, kicking off new speculation that the couple may be engaged.
While the singer hasn’t confirmed the news, reports suggest the pair may be taking the next big step after four years together. Here’s a look at how their relationship has grown since 2021.
2021: A Blind Date That Worked Out
Cyrus revealed she and Morando were introduced on a blind date — a leap of faith she joked she could always walk away from. Later that year, they were spotted together at the Gucci Love Parade, fueling early dating rumors.
2022: Keeping Things Quiet
The duo kept their blossoming relationship mostly off the radar. Morando supported Cyrus behind the scenes while she co-hosted Miley’s New Year’s Eve Party, showing that he was already part of her world — even if the public didn’t see much of them.
2023: Creative Collaboration
Morando, a drummer and producer, teamed up with Cyrus on her Endless Summer Vacation album, contributing to tracks like “Handstand.” People close to the pair described the relationship as fun, supportive, and low-pressure — just how Cyrus liked it.
2024: Public Appearances With Family
Morando joined Cyrus and her family at the 2024 Grammys, where she won Record of the Year and lovingly thanked him onstage. Reports later suggested the two were living together, and in interviews, Cyrus hinted at how grounded and happy she felt with him.
2025: More Spotlight — and More Rumors
This year has seen the couple step out for major events including the Oscars and SNL’s 50th anniversary celebration. Cyrus has shared that Morando inspires her personally and creatively, even contributing to her Something Beautiful album.
Their latest appearance together, however, is the one making headlines. The singer stunned in a black sequin gown — but the ring on her finger is what fans can’t stop talking about.
