Nick and Miley met in June 2006, just before he and his brothers Joe and Kevin became big stars. They dated while the Jonas Brothers accompanied Miley on the Best of Both Worlds Tour as her opening act, and broke up in December 2007. Miley penned her song “7 Things” about Nick.

Miley met the Midnight Sun star in 2011, and had a brief fling before they began dating in late 2014.

Although the couple attempted to make amends, they ultimately broke up for good the following month.
12. Stella Maxwell: 2015
The model was romantically linked with Miley in June 2015, shortly after the singer came out as bisexual. She was spotted kissing the Victoria’s Secret angel behind a trailer on set in Hollywood. “I am literally open to every single thing that is consenting and doesn’t involve an animal and everyone is of age,” Miley said of her sexuality. “Everything that’s legal, I’m down with. Yo, I’m down with any adult — anyone over the age of 18 who is down to love me.”
13. Liam, again: 2015-2019
Liam, 29, and Miley were spotted hanging out together in April 2015 not long after Miley and Patrick broke up. Liam told Men’s Fitness that their romance was anything but fleeting when he was the November 2015 cover star. The couple was seen unloading a U-Haul truck together at Liam’s Malibu home in January 2016. Months later, Miley started wearing her original engagement ring from Liam.

Two weeks after the bombshell news, the Hunger Games actor filed for divorce from Miley.
14. Kaitlynn Carter: 2019
Only a day before Miley and Liam announced their separation, Miley was spotted making out with the Hills: New Beginnings star in Lake Como. Their fling lasted only several weeks as they jetset from Italy to Los Angeles and New York. The couple broke up in late September 2019 but are “still friends” with one another.
15. Cody Simpson: 2019
Most recently, Miley was reportedly spotted kissing the singer after two highly publicized splits. They were seen together at a grocery store in Los Angeles on October 3, and an eyewitness revealed that they “noticed people seeing them so they tried to rush out of there.” Cody, 22, referred to Miley as one of his closest friends in 2015, but they appear much closer now.
