So… Miley Cyrus just casually pulled an engagement ring soft-launch and didn’t say a single word about it.
After hitting the Avatar: Fire And Ash premiere in Los Angeles on Monday (Dec 1) with her boyfriend Maxx Morando, red carpet pics showed Miley wearing a very prominent ring on that finger. Of course Smilers and fans alike went full FBI within minutes.
Then came the official-ish moment: Maxx’s dad hopped on Instagram, posting, “Congratulations! @mileycyrus @mmaxmm” alongside pics from her birthday last week. Like sir… we didn’t even get a Notes app announcement yet.
And Miley? Silent. No Instagram post, no cheeky TikTok, nothing. Just letting us spiral (which, she knows we absolutely will).
Everything About That Ring
You already know Miley doesn’t do subtle, and this sparkler is proof. I zoomed in (you can thank me later) and I’m pretty confident the gold band with the center diamond is by Los Angeles–based designer Jacquie Aiche. The ring features an east-west bezel setting with a cushion-cut diamond—likely around 4–5 carats—nestled in a chunky 14-karat yellow gold band. A piece like this could easily hit the $450,000 mark.
It’s chic, modern, and not trying too hard. The exact opposite of the giant sparkly billboard rings celebs usually go for. If this is the one she chose, it’s giving timeless.
When Did They Actually Get Engaged?
It looks like the engagement wasn’t a random red carpet surprise. Miley first appeared wearing the sparkler in photos shared on Instagram for her 33rd birthday on November 24. So yeah, she’s been engaged for at least a week, just letting us sit here blind and clueless. Love that.
Fans Are Eating This UP
Swifties may have a monopoly on wedding hysteria right now, but Smilers are on cloud nine. The vibe online is basically: “Please let this be the one that lasts.”
Everyone remembers her rollercoaster engagement → marriage → divorce with Liam Hemsworth — and how messy that whole era got. So we’re collectively manifesting Flowers level self-love energy forever, thanks.
Who Is Maxx Morando and How Did They Even Meet?
Maxx, 27, isn’t just the gentleman holding Miley’s purse for her. He’s a musician and designer, best known for drumming with Liily and working with The Regrettes.
The power couple were first linked in late 2021, showing up at events together and then later giving us major PDA. They’ve been low-key ever since with no PR stunts, no drama, and just vibes. This definitely looks like her most grown relationship yet.
So, Selena Gomez is married, Taylor Swift is about to have the biggest wedding of the century, and now Miley’s engaged. I’m so happy for these pop girlies!
