Miley Cyrus & Liam Hemsworth — A Relationship Timeline

Miley Cyrus & Liam Hemsworth — A Relationship Timeline — They’re not seventeen anymore. Miley Cyrus and Liam Hemsworth met when they were just teenagers, and over the following decade, these two would have a whirlwind, on-again/off-again love affair. From their first passionate meeting on The Last Song in 2009 to Liam filing for divorce in August 2019, the two rode the romantic rollercoaster. They experienced numerous ‘break-ups-and-make-ups,’ experienced a three-year-break, and a joyous reconciliation. The couple wound up tying the knot in 2018 when no one was looking, but their marriage was over as fast as it began. Fans of these two have enjoyed some euphoric highs (like Miley celebrating her love for Liam in the song ‘Malibu’) and suffered some crushing lows (Miley eulogizing her split in the song ‘Slide Away.’) At last we still have our memories. As these two continue to deal with the fallout from their split, here is a fond a look back at some of their happier moments.
