Miley Cyrus made a bombshell announcement as she revealed she still loves her ex-husband Liam Hemsworth very much.

The Wrecking Ball singer tied the knot with the Australian actor back in December 2018 after a decade of an on-off relationship.

Just eight months later, however, the couple split, whereas their divorce was finalized in early 2020.

Now, the 28-year-old singer opened up about her turbulent relationship with the 30-year-old actor, who is now together with model Gabriella Brooks, and revealed she still loves him “very much” even though their relationship was full of conflict.

“There was too much conflict,” Miley admitted in an interview with Howard Stern. “When I come home, I want to be anchored by someone. I don’t get off on drama or fighting.”

While their marriage didn’t work out, the singer insists she will always love her ex. “And I really do and did love him very, very, very much and still do, always will,” she said.

In the interview, the 28-year-old also recalled what led the couple to their wedding which followed shortly after their Malibu house burned in a fire.

“We had been like, engaged – I don’t know if we really ever thought we were actually going to get married, but when we lost our house in Malibu – which if you listen to my voice pre- and post-fire, they’re very different so that trauma really affected my voice,” Miley said.

“I was actually in South Africa, so I couldn’t come home, and like, my animals were tied to a post at the beach. I lost everything. I had polaroids of Elvis, like front row, passed on from, I got a couple grandmas to give me their Elvis polaroids. I always became friends with my friends’ grandmas so I could get the goods from the artists I love.

“I had so much and it was all gone, every song I had ever written was in that house. Every photograph of me that my parents had given to me, all my scripts, I lost everything. And so in trying to put that back together, instead of going, ‘Oh, nature kind of did something I couldn’t do for myself; it forced me to let go,’ I ran toward the fire.

“(…) You’re attracted to that heat and me being an intense person and not wanting to sit with it, and not wanting to go, you know, ‘What could be purposeful about this?’ I just clung to what I had left of that house, which was me and him.”

Previously, in August, Miley also opened up about her breakup with Liam on the Call Her Daddy podcast as she revealed that the end of their relationship felt like “death.”

“I had a very public, very big breakup that was over a 10-year span of a relationship… It’s like a death when you lose a love that deep. It feels like a death,” the Midnight Sky singer admitted.

“Honestly, sometimes [death] even feels easier because [after a breakup] the person is still walking on the earth.”
