'Learning from her past': Miley Cyrus can reportedly see a 'fruitful life' with boyfriend Maxx Morando
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: In the long run, Miley Cyrus sees herself and her boyfriend Maxx Morando leading a "fruitful life."
According to a source, the songstress is reportedly still "very much in love" with Morando, more than two years after the couple first sparked romance rumors in November 2021.
Before Morando, Cyrus was married to Liam Hemsworth in 2018. However, their marriage did not last long as they called it quits on their romance in 2019 after ten years of courting. Their divorce was finalized in 2020.
Miley could see a healthy, positive and fruitful life with Maxx, as per source
"They're doing great," a source told US Weekly, adding that the couple's future is bright and they intend to spend it together, per OK! Magazine.
"Miley could see a healthy, positive and fruitful life with Maxx," the insider said of the 'Wrecking Ball' singer. "She’s learning from her past marriage and relationships and wants to build toward a better future with him."
The insider acknowledged that although she is not in a rush to say "I Do," Cyrus would be willing to go down the aisle once more if it meant Morando could wait on the other side.
Since Morando "doesn't enjoy the spotlight," Cyrus has kept her love life relatively private while dating the Lily drummer for more than two years, another insider revealed in September.
"He is supportive of Miley and happy to be by her side at events, but prefers that they don’t share too much publicly," said a source.
The insider revealed, "Miley has learned from the mistakes she made in the past. This is what works for her and Maxx."
Though Cyrus had a couple more affairs before Morando, her 10-month romance with Cody Simpson, which lasted from October 2019 to August 2020, appears to have been the most significant.
Cyrus' decision to keep the public from becoming too engaged in her relationship with Morando comes after her split with Hemsworth was extensively reported in the media, given the history of the pair's interaction and their prominence as A-list celebrities.
Miley Cyrus and Maxx Morando were 'exploring things and seeing where it goes'
In February 2022, Us Weekly confirmed that Cyrus and Morando were "exploring things and seeing where it goes." However, months before, Cyrus had mentioned Morando by name in an interview.
In an interview with Vogue from September 2021, the Disney alum stated: "This look is a one-of-a-kind collaboration between two of my favorite emerging artists, Maxx Morando and Shane Kastl."
"Their collaboration is the perfect example of sustainability becoming the next fashion phase, and it proves that anything can be reinvented, which resonates with me deeply."
Although Cyrus and Morando posed for pictures at the Gucci Love Parade in November 2021, their romance did not begin until the following year.
Cyrus revealed to British Vogue on May 2023 that she and Morando went on their first date a few summers back, saying, "We got put on a blind date. Well, it was blind for me and not really for him. I thought, The worst that can happen is I leave."
The twosome's situation turned out well. A different insider told Us in March 2022 that Cyrus and Morando were "having fun and have been spending a lot of time together" when the couple's relationship first became public.
The insider continued by stating that Morando and Cyrus had been "exploring things and seeing where it goes" and that they were "very compatible with each other."

Morando was a huge support to Cyrus throughout the recording of her 'Endless Summer Vacation' album, which was released in March. He even produced two of the album's tracks.
Regarding her album, Cyrus told British Vogue at the time, "My boyfriend brings his phone and I don’t bring one. I had no way of knowing what number it would [chart at], and it wasn’t of importance to me because it wouldn’t have changed anything."
