Miley Cyrus lashes out after split from Liam Hemsworth

Just a day after revealing her split from Liam Hemsworth, Miley Cyrus has launched a savage take-down of reality star Brody Jenner while Liam takes an extended break Down Under.

It's over! Miley Cyrus and Liam Hemsworth split

It’s the bizarre relationship break-up that has the world talking.

And now Miley Cyrus has launched a savage take-down of reality star Brody Jenner, while Liam Hemsworth is extending his trip back home to Australia where he’s staying with brother Chris to recover from the break-up.

The Sun published new photos of a clearly downcast Hemsworth in a cafe in Byron Bay, where he said to a reporter: “You don’t understand what it’s like. I don’t want to talk about it mate.”

Just hours after his break-up became public, Cyrus, 26, was photographed kissing US reality star Kaitlynn Carter, 30, on a girls’ getaway to Italy’s Lake Como. Carter split with Brody Jenner, the son of Olympian Caitlin Jenner, last week.

Jenner has not been shy about commenting on Cyrus’s steamy Instagram posts in the aftermath of her break-up with Liam Hemsworth.

Jenner took to Instagram with a photo of himself on a Malibu clifftop, the caption reading: “Don’t let yesterday take up too much of today.”

His friend, Brandon Thomas Lee, the son of Tommy Lee and Pamela Anderson, wrote on the photo: “Let’s round this scandal out and post a pic of us making out.”

Replying to Lee, Jenner wrote: “Watch out! Pics of Liam and I holding hands on the beach coming soon.”

Cyrus, who is currently on holiday with Carter and their friends in Italy, bit back: “@brodyjenner go take a nap in your truck and cool off #HotGirlSummer.”

The latest development came as pictures emerged showing a downcast Liam Hemsworth in the build-up to his split from the singer after just seven months of marriage.

The Aussie actor, 29, was photographed on June 24 while grocery shopping in Malibu with his parents wearing jeans and a hoodie without his wedding ring.

Cyrus was only days from performing at the Glastonbury Festival in England — where she ranted on stage “I’m f**ing sick of men” while performing Wrecking Ball onstage.

The newlywed pair have been rarely seen together ever since, while Hemsworth has been seen numerous times without his ring.

A representative said: “Liam and Miley have agreed to separate at this time.

“Ever-evolving, changing as partners and individuals, they have decided this is what’s best while they both focus on themselves and careers. They still remain dedicated parents to all of their animals they share while lovingly taking this time apart. Please respect their process and privacy.”

Last week it was revealed that Liam has been staying in Byron Bay with his older brother Chris, without Miley, sharing images of early morning sunrises with his 13 million Instagram followers.

A recent post shared by both brothers featured Chris hard at work doing biceps curls before revealing a shirtless Liam, looked noticeably leaner and more muscular than usual.

In her first social media post after confirmation of the breakup, Cyrus said “change is inevitable”.

“My dad always told me “ Nature never hurries but it is always on time” … it fills my heart with peace and hope KNOWING that is true. I was taught to respect the planet and its process and I am committed to doing the same with my own.”

The New York Post reports that news of the split came just hours after Cyrus posted a photo without her wedding ring while vacationing in Italy. Cyrus was also snapped by the pool at Lake Como kissing reality star Kaitlynn Carter, who recently split from Brody Jenner.

Cyrus and Carter were pictured cuddling and kissing as they flaunted their toned bikini bodies at the Il Sereno hotel, alongside Cyrus’s sister, Brandi.

Cyrus and Hemsworth married at the end of December in a small wedding at Cyrus’ Nashville home.

A source told E! News that the couple had been struggling for a while, but distance and different career priorities ultimately led them to “drift apart.”

“They have been trying to make it work for months now but haven’t felt they were connecting on the level they were feeling when they got married last year,” E!’s source said. “It’s been a rough year.”

The two have been “spending a lot of time apart,” E!’ s source added, and that was likely to continue as Cyrus’ music career is ramping up.

It wasn’t ugly in the end, the source said. “Miley and Liam have still been communicating and it wasn’t a messy split but they have decided they are at different points in their lives currently.”

NOVEMBER 2015: Hemsworth opens up to Men’s Fitness about his time together with Cyrus: “You fall in love with who you fall in love with; you can never choose.

And that’s good because that proves to me that it was real. It wasn’t just a fling.”

JANUARY 2016: They reignite their romance at the Falls Music Festival in Byron Bay and People reports the couple’s engagement “is back on”, with a source close to Cyrus saying: “It might seem sudden, but they have been very close for the past few months.”

OCTOBER 2016: Cyrus tells Variety she is pansexual and single. “Once I understood my gender more, which was unassigned, then I understood my sexuality more. I was like, ‘Oh — that’s why I don’t feel straight and I don’t feel gay. It’s because I’m not.’” In the same month, she tells Ellen DeGeneres that wearing an engagement ring is not really her style:

“This is really weird because this is like real jewellery and most of my jewellery is made out of gummy bears and cotton candy … And [Liam]’s kind of like what’s going on? I’m like, this isn’t really my aesthetic, but I’ll wear it because you love me.”

You’re more precious than ever. So thankful to have you in my life.”
