What’s up guys, it’s Sussan Mourad with Clevver News, and exactly one year after Miley
Cyrus and Liam Hemsworth called off their marriage, Miley and Cody Simpson have officially
parted ways after 10 months of dating.
Just on the heels of the release of Miley’s new single “Midnight Sky,” many outlets
are reporting that she and Cody Simpson have called it quits after almost a year of dating.
Miley and Cody first started dating back in October of last year, just two months after
she and Liam Hemsworth called off their 8-month-long marriage.
The two didn’t try to hide their relationship, and from the get go they posted many photos
and videos together on social media.
They even celebrated birthdays and holidays together, and some of their TikTok dances
will forever go down in history as some of the absolute greatest.
Miley and Cody became very close throughout their 10-month relationship -- as many fans
recall, he took care of Miley when she underwent vocal cord surgery back in November, and in
March they got matching tattoos together.
Sources close to Miley and Cody revealed to TMZ that they split within the last few weeks,
and while it was unclear what exactly led to the breakup, sources from Us Weekly revealed
that they split because they QUOTE “realized they're better off as friends than dating
each other.”
Miley then seeing all the reports, took it upon herself to CONFIRM the news saying this.
"So today, it came out that me and my boyfriend have broken up, it was confirmed by a 'reliable
source' even though no one is reliable in a relationship except the two individuals
that are participating in it.
But, for right now, two halves can't make a whole and we're individually just working
on ourselves to become the people that we wanna be.”
She continued to say this.
“Like everybody else at this age, we're just deciding who we wanna be with our lives,
what we wanna do with our lives.
And so, don't make it some drama story if next week we're out hanging out or getting
pizza.
We've been friends for 10 years and we're gonna continue to be friends.”
Because of how close they became throughout their relationship, fans grew to love seeing
them together as they always seemed to make each other happy.
However, there does seem to be truth to their strong friendship after fans noticed that
Cody and Miley were FaceTiming last night while she celebrated the release of her new
single “Midnight Sky.”
Cody shared a screenshot of their conversation last night to his Instagram story, with the
caption, “So proud of you.
Congratulations to the most special of all.
Go cop that new new!!”
Coincidentally, news of their breakup happened almost exactly a year after Miley and Liam
Hemsworth announced that they would be separating just eight months after getting married.
Last August, Liam shared this post to Instagram sayin QUOTE, “Hi all.
Just a quick note to say that Miley and I have recently separated and I wish her nothing
but health and happiness going forward.
This is a private matter and I have not made, nor will I be making, any comments to any
journalists or media outlets.
Any reported quotes attributed to me are false.”
Although their separation appeared to be pretty amicable, fans were shocked at the time to
see Miley move on pretty quickly with Kaitlynn Carter, right after news of the breakup broke,
before her relationship with Cody.
Fans began sharing their thoughts on Miley and Cody’s breakup, however, many were quick
to point out the coincidental timing of her split that coincided with the release of new
music.
One user wrote, “Miley breaking up with Cody just before releasing her new single...
it would scare them if they knew how smart she is.”
Another fan shared their thoughts on the matter, saying, “When Miley didn’t actually break
up with Cody but just said this to get more clout for Midnight Sky, her mind I fear.”
Many also recall that Miley dropped her emotional breakup song “Slide Away” just days after
her split with Liam, which featured lyrics that hinted at a relationship that began when
they were teens.
Some of the lyrics read QUOTE, “Move on, we're not 17 / I'm not who I used to be / You
said that everything changed / You're right, we're grown now.”
Interestingly enough, Miley’s new 80s-inspired single “Midnight Sky” suggests that she
is loving her freedom, with lyrics that read, “It’s been a while since I felt this good
on my own” and, “I was born to run; I don’t belong to anyone.”
It’s not every day we see a healthy breakup between friends-turned-lovers-turned-friends
again, and this split seems to be what’s best for both Miley and Cody for the time
being.
So if you need us, we’ll just be over here with “Midnight Sky” on repeat for the
entirety of the weekend.
