Kaitlynn Carter’s relationship with Miley Cyrus ‘no secret’ to her ex

Miley Cyrus and Kaitlynn Carter’s hookup may have seemingly come out of the blue - but it’s actually been going on for a while.

Brody Jenner knew Kaitlynn Carter and Miley Cyrus were hooking up long before photos hit the internet.

An insider told Page Six that Carter, 30, and Cyrus, 26, have been hooking up for “a couple of months” and that Carter’s ex Jenner is “totally okay with it.”

Earlier this month, Jenner, 35, announced his split from Carter and wasted no time partying away in Vegas after the breakup. Meanwhile, a source told us at the time that Carter was dating someone new. Now, she’s been getting cozy with Cyrus on a yacht as they vacationed in Italy last week and photos of them kissing were released over the weekend.

“(Kaitlynn) had some other priorities (in her marriage), and you now know what they are,” the insider snarked.

We’re told that Jenner and Cyrus have “known each other for years” and Carter “knows Miley through him. He introduced them.”

The insider added that Carter and Jenner discussed her relationship with Cyrus before they split and “it was no secret.”

It seemed that there were hard feelings between the three when Cyrus appeared to clap back at Jenner over an Instagram comment on a photo of the women in Italy, writing: “go take a nap in your truck and cool off #HotGirlSummer” after Jenner joked, “watch out! Pics of Liam and I holding hands on the beach coming soon.”

“Brody wants his ex to be happy and he’s friends with Miley,” the insider explained. “Miley’s comment was in jest. She was joking about him sleeping in his car because they’re friends. She knew about that episode. There are no issues.”

Still, their breakup won’t make it on air as The Hills: New Beginnings, which is available to stream on Foxtel, wrapped in January.

It is unclear if the exes — or Cyrus — will come back for the show’s second season.
