Miley Cyrus Met Her Boyfriend Maxx Morando on a Blind Date
There's a new man in Miley Cyrus' life, and his name is Maxx Morando. The couple has kept details about their romance under wraps, but many of Miley's fans believe that songs "River" and "You" off her eighth studio album, Endless Summer Vacation, were inspired by her new love with the 24-year-old musician. In March 2023, she was spotted with Maxx at her album release party as well as star-studded events for fashion houses, Gucci and Versace.
The couple has been romantically linked since 2021, when the Daily Mail published photos of Miley cozying up to Maxx days before hosting her 2022 New Year's Eve bash in Miami. While the couple has kept their relationship low-key and out of the public eye, we've gotten some glimpses of cute moments that they've shared over the years. Here's everything we know about Miley Cyrus' boyfriend, Maxx Morando.
Max is a drummer
Max currently plays the drums for the Los Angeles-based rock band Lilly. Before that, he performed as part of The Regrettes from 2015 to 2018.
He met Miley on a blind date
Miley opened up to British Vogue about how she landed her first date with Max. The "Jaded" singer said, "We got put on a blind date," before she clarified saying, "Well, it was blind for me and not really for him." Miley also dished about her thought process going into the blind date. "I thought, 'The worst that can happen is I leave.'" The low-key couple began dating "a couple summers" ago but have kept details about their relationship under wraps until now.
