Getty Nick Jonas and Miley Cyrus performing on December 27, 2009 Key Points Miley Cyrus and Nick Jonas were two teen stars in the aughts, ultimately ending their relationship in 2007. In a June 6 podcast interview, Cyrus shared what she thought of The Jonas Brothers bandmate around the time of their breakup—and how she sees him now, nearly two decades later. She also has made subtle—and not so subtle—references to another ex, Liam Hemsworth, as she promotes her new album Something Beautiful.
Unbelievably, we’re going on 20 years since Miley Cyrus and Nick Jonas broke up in 2007—but Cyrus recently made a rare comment about Jonas while promoting her new album, Something Beautiful. While appearing on the “Every Single Album” podcast on June 6, Cyrus—who is currently dating Maxx Morando—was asked about her 2009 book Miles to Go. When writing the book—which came out just two years after Cyrus and Jonas broke up in 2007—Cyrus said, “I probably was like…‘Nick Jonas dumped me.
He’s a dick.’ But they were like, ‘We can say he’s not a very nice boy,’” alluding to the ghostwriter that worked with her on the project. “But I was probably like, ‘He’s an asshole,’” she added.

“I’m into him.” Jonas is now married to Priyanka Chopra Jonas, with whom he shares 3-year-old daughter Malti Marie. Cyrus acknowledged that her ex is now “married with children” and added, “we’re all moving on.” “Everything is good in the world,” she said. “Niley for life,” referencing the portmanteau of their names.
Cyrus and Jonas first met in June 2006 at a charity benefit; Jonas and his band, The Jonas Brothers, were opening for Cyrus on her Best of Both Worlds tour. The Jonas Brothers also made an appearance on Cyrus’ television show, Hannah Montana, in 2007, and the band and Cyrus collaborated on the song “Before the Storm,” which ended up on the group’s 2009 album Lines, Vines and Trying Times.

“He was on a quest to meet me, and he was like, ‘I think you’re beautiful and I really like you.’ And I was like, ‘Oh my gosh, I like you so much.’” She added, “Nick and I loved each other. We still do, but we were in love with each other. For two years he was basically my 24/7.
But it was really hard to keep it from people. We were arguing a lot, and it really wasn’t fun.” In 2015, seven years after that interview, Cyrus called Jonas her “first crush.” Jonas wasn’t the only ex Cyrus has brought up recently. In that same aforementioned podcast interview, the singer said that both Jonas and Cyrus’ ex-husband Liam Hemsworth were “catching strays”—a dig that came not long after Cyrus subtly shaded Hemsworth while signing a copy of Something Beautiful.

Cyrus and Hemsworth met not long after her breakup with Jonas on the set of the movie The Last Song in 2009. They were a part of an on-again, off-again relationship before Hemsworth proposed in 2012; the two ended their engagement and broke up in 2013 before reconciling in 2015.
They married in 2018, separated in 2019, and divorced in 2020. Read the original article on InStyle
