They Had ‘Instant’ Chemistry on ‘The Last Song.’

“I heard a rumor that he didn’t really want the role, and so when he came in to audition for the role, I’m thinking, ‘Here’s this guy, he’s amazingly good-looking, super-confident, and he doesn’t realize how blessed he is to be in this room, because I know how blessed I am.’ This is such a big opportunity for both of us.” Miley told Seventeen in December 2009 about Liam’s audition for their first movie together. “And I was thinking, ‘Ugh, gross, you know?’ Then I started talking with him, and he was just the most genuinely precious, sweet person. And the second audition comes around, and the chemistry was instant. From the time he walked in that door and we saw each other again, we [both] lit up, and we were excited to get work and learn together.”

Their Breakup Had A Silver Lining.

“I think people who break up and get back together, I think that’s awesome because you know it’s true but you get time to be yourself. You get time to grow up,” Miley dished about their previous split. “I think if you’re growing up attached to another person, you never really get solid as your own being. So I’m really solid, and then he gets to be really solid, and then together we get to be two really grounded people. But it’s not a half and a half make a whole.”

She’s Never Let Age Be A Factor.

“We’ve been together a really long time and I just know that this is what I want, you know, for my life,” Miley told Marie Claire back in 2012. “So a lot of people I think, you know, say ‘I can’t believe they’re getting married, it’s so young.’ But it’s like life is too short to not spend every moment making the person that makes you the happiest happy in return.”

She Wasn’t Really In A Rush To Get Married.

“Three years ago, if you’d asked me if I’d be here, this happy with this man, I’d have been stunned,” she said in 2017. “I’m just riding this out. In some relationships, you lose yourself by being with someone else. Actually, it made me find myself more. I have no idea what the next three years will bring, but if it’s possible to get even happier, I’ll take it.”

Always A Gentleman.

“I met him, and he opened the door for me and I was like, ‘I’ve been in LA three years, and I don’t think any guy has actually opened the door for me,” the songstress divulged to Ellen DeGeneres in 2010. “It wasn’t like he wanted the job, it’s just because that’s who he is. And I was like, ‘Wow, that’s super impressive.'”

He’s Miley’s Hero.

When the pair’s Malibu home tragically burned down during the California wildfires, Miley was eternally grateful to Liam for rescuing their animals. “He got all the animals out in his truck — he put two pigs in crates. I said, ‘How did you get them out?’ and he said the only thing he could do was get a really powerful hose and sprayed them in the ass. So, he just chased the pigs into the crate — which was genius,” the singer told Howard Stern. She added, “He got a lot of action for saving the animals. He got a lot of action.”
