Miley Cyrus *can* buy herself flowers, but we sure hope her boyfriend, Maxx Morando is grabbing them for her anyway.

ICYMI: the songstress has been loved-up with Maxx for a few years now. The couple mostly keep their relationship out of the spotlight, aside from the occasional red carpet appearance—such as the 2025 Oscars.

They were first spotted together on the red carpet at the Gucci Love Parade in late 2021, and sources confirmed to tabloid media that they were dating a few months later. 

But who exactly is he? If you haven’t come across the muso before, we don’t blame you. Scroll on for everything you need to know about Maxx, and his relationship with Miley.

Does Miley Cyrus Have a Boyfriend?

Miley Cyrus and Maxx Morando have been dating since at least January 2022, when E! News reported that the Disney star and musician were “happily dating.” A source told the outlet they met through mutual friends and grew close since “they are both artistic and creative” and “bond[ed] over being musicians.”

Since, Maxx has accompanied Miley to major events like the Grammys and the Oscars.

The “Flowers” singer officially confirmed she was off the market in a May 2023 interview with British Vogue. She told the magazine her and Max were set up 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,” she said. 

Who Is Maxx Morando?

Maxx Morando is the drummer for an LA-based rock group called Liily. He previously drummed for the Regrettes from 2015 and 2018, and is also a skilled guitar player. 

Maxx is an artist, too and even drew cartoons that were part of a designer collab Miley wore during a performance in 2021.

Maxx Morando Age

Maxx Morando was born on November 16, 1998, making him 26 years old. Miley Cyrus is 32.
