Miley Cyrus performs during the iHeartRadio Music Festival at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas
After news broke earlier in the week that Miley Cyrus was engaged to longtime boyfriend Maxx Morando, the singer has confirmed the happy news.
Cyrus, 33, said during an interview on Good Morning America: “My life has been perfectly aligned with the release of Avatar, my personal life — those two things kind of, I guess you could say marrying each other and harmonizing with one another.”
Cyrus recently released the song “Dream as One” for the new film ‘Avatar: Fire and Ash,’ which she co-wrote and co-produced with Andrew Wyatt and Mark Ronson. Engagement rumors began to swirl after the couple arrived at the film’s premiere and posed for photos together on the red carpet, where Cyrus could be seen wearing a glittery ring on THAT finger.
Morando, 27, proposed during the couple’s recent trip to Asia, according to Cyrus. She said: “I actually had never gone to Japan, which, I did that purposefully. I wanted one place in the world that could be my special place that I saved for me. I am not easy to surprise because I love to control every situation, and I had completely surrendered. And I’m telling you, I was so, so surprised.”
The singer also told People in an interview: “The detail that I can share is that for us, our privacy and us kind of keeping it small has been something that I’ve been astounded that I’ve actually been able to have and being able to kind of have more choice. I think it’s also being older, being more protective of what I’m open to sharing.”
Cyrus added that Morando “did good” with her engagement ring, a 14-carat cushion-cut diamond set on a chunky, 14-karat yellow gold band designed by Jacquie Achie.
