What’s up guys, it’s Sussan Mourad with Clevver News, and Liam Hemsworth has officially
parted ways with the home that he and Miley Cyrus once shared together, despite losing
millions after the property was destroyed in the 2018 fires.
The 7.4 acre Malibu home that Miley Cyrus and Liam Hemsworth shared together has seen
it all: breakups, makeups, marriages, splits and even a destructive force of nature that
caused their entire home to go up in smoke.
Variety reported on Friday that Liam officially sold the property to an unidentified buyer
for $3.6 million in an off-market deal in October although having initially purchased
the home for $6.8 million back in 2014, just four years before the California wildfires
tore through the Malibu hills and burned it down in 2018.
New renovations for the home began months after the fire in 2019, and although it’s
unclear if the rebuild was actually completed, the buyer is said to have purchased the two
lots the property stood on, which contains “an untouched pool, plus several acres of
semi-charred rolling hills.”
The property, which is located “deep into the rolling hills” of Malibu was purchased
by Liam at a time when he and Miley were broken up, and she had just begun dating Patrick
Schwarzenegger.
However, once Miley and Liam reconciled in early 2016, she moved into the home with him,
which included “a long driveway that meandered over a gurgling creek, an updated 1950s ranch-style
house, a recording studio, detached writing studio, concrete barn, and a big grassy lawn.”
This home is also where Miley found the inspiration to write and record her hit single “Malibu”,
and even loved it so much that she purchased the smaller house next door, which ended up
surviving the fires, and which she still owns.
Liam shared the devastating news when the house burned down in the fires with this photo
of the wreckage that featured cement blocks that spelled ‘LOVE’.
Alongside the photo, he wrote, “It’s been a heartbreaking few days.
This is what’s left of my house.
Love.
I spent the day in Malibu yesterday and it was amazing to see the community pulling together
to help each other out in any way they can.”
Liam went on to say, “Malibu is a strong community and this event is only going to
make it stronger.
Thankful for all the great local guys that helped keep smaller fires out around my property.
I love u guys.
I love you Malibu.”
Around the time of the fires, Miley also shared an update via Twitter, telling fans that she
was one of the “lucky ones,” saying, “My animals and LOVE OF MY LIFE made it out safely
& that’s all that matters right now.
My house no longer stands but the memories shared with family & friends stand strong.”
She also made an appearance on On Air With Ryan Seacrest just weeks after the fires,
and said, “My dad has always told me, ‘Life is a series of adjustments.’
And sometimes we never understand what our parents are telling us until we start to experience
life more because they learn those things as they go.”
She went on to explain, “I’m starting to really understand what that means now.
I think experiencing something as life-changing and devastating as a natural disaster, it’s
a really deep character challenge, I think, to see the way you react to loss.”
She also gushed to Howard Stern about Liam’s heroism during the fire!
“Actually like Liam, I’ve never loved him more for this.
THis is your um boyfriend, yes, fiance, kind of.
My partner, I call him my partner, I call him my survival partner now.”
With something as devastating as their entire lives being burned to the ground, Miley and
Liam, who intended to get married in a ceremony held at their home, tied the knot a month
later, in December.
Things appeared to have run their course as Liam then filed for divorce eight months later
in August, citing irreconcilable differences, to which it was finalized in January of this
year.
Liam has since been living in Australia’s Byron Bay, in a $4.25 million home.
He revealed to People back in May that he was happy to be back near his family, saying
QUOTE, “It's just a very mellow area where I grew up.
It's quiet and it's a beautiful spot.
I'm able to see the ocean from my house.”
Both Miley and Liam have since moved on from their split, as Miley was more recently dating
long-time friend Cody Simpson for about a year until recently calling it quits.
Liam is dating model Gabriella Brooks, and appears to be happier than ever since the
start of their relationship back in December of last year.
Photos of the two kissing on the beach in January went viral as a source revealed to
Us Weekly QUOTE, “Liam feels comfortable with Gabriella.
His family approves of her and really likes her, which is very important to him.”
Both Miley and Liam deserve all the happiness in the world, and we wish them both nothing
but the best in their lives moving forward.
