The Hemsworth Family (With Miley Cyrus) Win for the CUTEST Family Christmas Pic

Miley Cyrus' Full Dating History

Nick Jonas

We revisited this short-lived fling while dissecting Miley Cyrus and Selena Gomez's friendship, but it doesn't hurt to talk about it again! These two didn't really talk about their relationship when they first started dating, but Kevin Jonas spilled the beans about Nick's feelings when he first met Miley. He said, "When he met Miley, I think that kid's head exploded." He made this revelation during the brothers' documentary Chasing Happiness, where they also revealed a few of their songs were about the former Hannah Montana star.

In her book Miles To Go, Miley talked about how the two met at a benefit for the Elizabeth Glaser Pediatric AIDS Foundation charity and started spending more time together. The next year, Miley and the Jonas Brothers went on tour together (Best of Both Worlds), but that seemed to signal the end of her relationship with Nick.

Once they broke up, Miley talked about how she felt in great detail. "At first I bawled for a month straight. I was so sad. I just went into this weird funk," she said (via PEOPLE). What's ironic is that she admitted to "rebelling against" Nick's preferences. "...I've got to be by myself for now, and just figure out who I really am."

Justin Gaston

Miley's next boyfriend was Justin Gaston, a singer and model, who seemingly wore the same hairstyle as her dad Billy Ray Cyrus. Actually, the reason the two started dating is because of the "Achy Breaky Heart" singer! He must've taken a liking to Justin during Nashville Star because he introduced him to Miley, and the rest was history (via Glamour). "He actually reminds me a lot of myself when I was 20 years old and I was living and searching for the dream," he said. However, their relationship was short-lived because they called it off in 2009 (via NBC Washington).

Liam Hemsworth

The next person Miley Cyrus was linked to was her ex-husband Liam Hemsworth. For a time, everyone believed these two were meant to be...until they weren't. The pair filmed The Last Song together and couldn't deny the strong chemistry between them — even if they were supposed to be "just acting." They started making public appearances together looking very much smitten with each other, confirming any relationship rumors swirling around.

It's no secret they broke up and got back together several times, but they eventually decided to get engaged in 2012 (via Cosmopolitan). However that was short-lived once they decided to call it off...only to get it together a few years later. Though the couple eventually got married, they got divorced before their one-year anniversary.

"What really sucked about it wasn't the fact that me and someone that I loved realized that we don't love each other the way that we used to anymore," she said during an appearance on the Joe Rogan Experience.

Patrick Schwarzenegger

Once her marriage to Liam Hemsworth ended, Miley and Patrick Schwarzenegger were spotted getting close. However his mom Maria Shriver wasn't a fan of them dating (via The List). A source said that she was "very worried about the influence Miley's having on Patrick. She fully believes that you become who you surround yourself with and she's always been so happy with the friends Patrick chooses, she never saw this coming," (Hello! Magazine).

Luckily for this mama bear, Miley and Patrick's relationship didn't last long either. They broke up in 2015 because they were in "two different places in their lives," (via PEOPLE).

Stella Maxwell

It seemed like Miley decided to explore her options after things ended with Patrick Schwarzenegger — she was then linked to Victoria Secret's model Stella Maxwell that same year. It was speculated the two were in a relationship after they were seen kissing (via PEOPLE). However, Miley shut those rumors down while she talked about her sexuality. She told Elle, "I'm 22, I'm going on dates, but I change my style every two weeks, let alone who I'm with" and admitted she identifies as "pansexual."

Kaitlynn Carter

In 2019, Miley was seen kissing Kaitlynn Carter (The Hills: New Beginnings) while on vacation in Italy (via PEOPLE). It didn't seem like things were serious because a source said the pair were "just having fun" — which sounds similar to the mindset Miley had while she was seen with Stella Maxwell. Miley's sister Brandi Cyrus joined them on vacation, according to Instagram.

Miley and Kaitlynn were seen on a date where a source said, "They live together and are very happy," (via PEOPLE). But this may have been too much for the "Flowers" singer because they went their separate ways after it was revealed they "spent every day together."

Ouch?

Cody Simpson

A younger Cody Simpson admitted to Fuse he had a crush on Miley Cyrus in 2012, and it was the cutest thing ever! They become best friends a few years later with Cody telling GQ Australia, "...she helps with some of that transitional stuff—trying to escape your childhood. She’s super open-minded, and I’m working on becoming more like that." Paparazzi snuck a photo of the two kissing in 2019, sparking dating rumors (via TMZ).

They did become boyfriend and girlfriend, but broke up in 2020 because Cody said they "were going in different directions," (via Billboard).

Maxx Morando

Before long, Miley Cyrus and her current boyfriend Maxx Morando were seen getting cozy in 2021. Daily Mailsaw them cuddling in Miami while a source later told Entertainment Tonight, "They've been together for a little while and are just enjoying their relationship." They met for the first time during a "blind date" after Miley decided to open herself up to dating again. "I thought, ‘The worst that can happen is I leave.'" Ever since then, he couple have been enjoying their relationship and even enjoyed a recent date night (via Page Six).

How did Dolly Parton and Miley Cyrus meet?

As you may know, Miley's dad, Billy Ray Cyrus, is a popular country music artist. During his "Achy Breaky Heart" era — yes, it's stuck my head now, too — he connected with Dolly as they toured together. Dolly recounted more about this to the London Evening Standard last year when she said that “...of course, Miley became my goddaughter; I was her fairy godmother." She continued, "We really have a true bond; she is like a daughter or a sister to me.”

Are Miley Cyrus and Dolly Parton related?

Dolly has claimed to be Miley's "honorary godmother." She told Howard Stern recently that she's known Miley since she was born, and even retold the story of how she came to be Miley's amazing godmother. She told Howard of Billy Ray, "And he said … ‘We’re having a girl, and you’ve got to be her godmother!’ And I said: ‘Well, I’d be honored.’" And while that was the inception of this beautiful relationship, Dolly elaborated that it was really what formed between she and Miley that made it so special. She said, "So actually, Miley and I took over from there. We just stayed very, very close through the years.”

And this week, Access Hollywood has actually revealed that the two are, indeed, related by blood after all! In the interview, Ancestry revealed that Dolly and Miley are actually seventh cousins once removed! It turns out their family member that they have in common was named John Brickey who lived in Virginia in 1740. Dolly was ecstatic over the news saying, "Is that true? That's amazing! Well, we're so close, Miley and I. I would've thought we would've been at least third cousins, 10 times removed." In regards to how Miley felt about the news? She said, "I’m sure she'll get a kick out of that, but it doesn’t surprise me because she does feel like family." We didn't think we could love these two anymore, but it turns out we can!

Have they collaborated on any projects?

Ever since the Hannah Montana days, these two have collaborated on projects and music! Dolly appeared on Miley's song, "Rainbowland,"and Miley returned the favor by appearing on Dolly's rendition of "Wrecking Ball" last year. The two have also covered each other's songs countless times over the years — not to mention the clear influence Dolly's music had on Miley's own songwriting in general.

In an interview with NPR, Miley discussed how Dolly helped her understand sexuality and personality in music. She says, "The best thing that she does is, she's not afraid to laugh at herself," she said. "And she pushed the boundaries for country music, by looking the way that she does, and saying the things that she says, and being sexual in that way. I mean, there's no one that's been able to make country music sexual more than Dolly!"

Our Favorite Miley and Dolly Moments

These sweet girlies have shared so many amazing moments, so keep scrolling to see their best collaborations, and all of our favorite times they've talked about each other over the years!

Miley Cyrus and Dolly Parton Singing on New Years Eve

One of my favorite, most recent, moments for this adorable duo is this stunning performance of "Wrecking Ball" and "I Will Always Love You." They combined their most popular songs into a stunning harmonious medley, while also showcasing their love and friendship for each other. This was a stunning and emotional moment for everyone tuning in to watch their New Years Eve special!

Miley Cyrus and Dolly Parton Singing "Jolene"

We all know and love this song, but I will certainly remember being introduced to "Jolene" with Miley's iconic cover when I was a kid. I love this rendition where the two pals get to sing it together, too. Their voices are so different, yet blend incredibly well together! This was yet another sweet moment for the books!

Miley Recreates Dolly Parton Classic With Jimmy Fallon

In this absolutely hilarious skit, we see Jimmy Fallon and Miley Cyrus re-create Dolly Parton and Kenny Rogers' classic hit, "Islands in the Stream." And Miley, busty and all, goes fully into the character. This was such a funny moment, and we love how the two are able to poke fun at each other in respectful, yet hilarious ways.

Miley Cyrus Says Dolly Only Contacts Her Via Fax

One of our favorite things about Dolly is her drastic aversion to technology. Miley told Seth Meyers about a hilarious instance she had with Dolly about this. She claimed that Dolly doesn't mind using a phone, but whenever she needs to talk to someone over text, she'll do a fax, and then someone who works for her will scan the fax, then the scan will go into a text, which then gets sent to Miley. Whew! We're exhausted just thinking about it!

Miley says that if Dolly wants to send a demo, then it's a similarly complicated process. She'll record a cassette, which gets recorded on a flip phone, which gets recorded on an iPhone voice memo, which then gets sent to Miley. We're glad Miley's finding the humor in Dolly's anti-technology quirks!

Miley Cyrus Covers Dolly Parton's Song "Light of a Clear Blue Morning"

Miley's voice may be different than Dolly's, but you can't dispute that her growly vibrato, and yodel-edque vocals were made for country. So when she covered this stunning Dolly song, she definitely killed it and delivered a beautiful cover. Don't mind us keeping this on repeat until further notice...

Dolly Parton Talks About Being Miley's Godmother

In this Wired interview, Dolly answered common questions that she gets about herself online, and one of the questions was about Miley. In regards to the question, "Is Dolly Parton Miley Cyrus' Godmother?" Dolly said, "Well everybody knows that. I would actually say I'm the fairy godmother of Miley Cyrus." We love how fun Dolly is, and we can tell how proud she is to be Miley's godmother!

Dolly Parton Covers Miley's "Wrecking Ball"

@dollyparton When I heard 'Wrecking Ball' I almost wept in my car. When it started into the chorus it hit me like a wrecking ball! I thought how great can a song be and how great can @Miley Cyrus ♬ Wrecking Ball - Dolly Parton

Dolly talked about how beautiful Miley Cyrus' song "Wrecking Ball is", and how much she needed to cover it, on her Tiktok account. Dolly talked about how much the song meant to her, and how much it meant to have Miley sing it with her on her rock album. She concluded with, "How great can a song be?" We definitely agree, Dolly!

Are they rebooting Felicity?

While promoting The Diplomat season 2, Keri Russell said she'd love to bring the series back if the story made sense. “I would totally do that if it was the right stuff,” she told E! News. “Mandy had a good pitch for it, actually. A really good pitch for, like… life wasn’t going great and, you know, didn’t work out. And she was supposed to be all these things. And then she bumps into someone…Never say never!"

In case you haven't seen the show (which ran from 1998-2002 and is available to stream on Hulu, FYI), Felicity follows Keri Russell's titular character, who's in for a rude awakening when she follows her high school crush to college in New York City. But once she's there, she realizes just how big the Big Apple really is.

The series also starred Scott Speedman as Ben Covington, Scott Foley as Noel Crane, Amy Jo Johnson as Julie Emrick, and Tangi Miller as Elena Tyler. Keri actually said they "all still talk all the time!”

“They’re like my total pals,” she says.

What else has the cast said about bringing Felicity back?

Scott Foley told ET that he'd consider coming back for another installment of Felicity, even though he's been against a reboot in the past. "I had always said I wouldn't — you know, there's no reason to do anything," he said. "But just to be with them again, I think would be really nice... When we did the 20th reunion down in Texas at the [ATX Television Festival], we were onstage in a panel answering questions, and I missed being with them."

"I don't know if it could ever really happen, you know, Felicity was such a specific show at a specific time that took took place in a specific moment in people's lives," he continues. "And it's really hard to recapture — especially with the amount of gray going on right now."

In March, Greg Gunberg (who played Sean Blumberg) hinted that there'd be some "GIGANTIC Felicity News Coming VERY Soon."

So are we getting a Felicity reboot? It looks like, in Keri Russell's words, never say never!
