This weekend, fans of singer-songwriter Miley Cyrus were left stunned by the news that her and her spouse, Australian actor Liam Hemsworth, had decided to split after just eight months of marriage.

The couple first met back in 2009, on the set of the musical rom-com The Last Song. The movie, based on the bestselling novel by Nicholas Sparks, tells the story of a rebellious teenage girl (Cyrus) who reconnects with her estranged father and falls in love with a handsome beach volleyball player (Hemsworth).

In a breathtaking example of taking method acting too far, Cyrus and Hemsworth hooked up during filming, and were embroiled in an on-again/off-again relationship for some time. They got engaged in June 2012, split for a period, and eventually tied the knot in an extremely secret ceremony in December of 2018.

However, this week the couple decided to break up, allegedly after Miley was caught kissing actress, Kaitlynn Carter, while on holiday in Italy.

A spokesperson for the couple told People that: "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 added: "They still remain dedicated parents to all of their animals they share while lovingly taking this time apart. Please respect their process and privacy. [sic]"

Plenty of fans have reacted with dismay to the news. But in the wake of the breakup, a number of fans have noticed that President Donald Trump himself appears to have taken an interest in the couple when they previously split.

Indeed, fans have unearthed a number of tweets that show Trump actively supporting the Wrecking Ball singer. For example, on September 19, 2013, Trump wrote: "@MileyCyrus – don’t worry about Liam. You can do much better and you have plenty of time—remain strong! [sic]"

He also commented on her moral character as well, writing on September 21, 2013: "An important part of my (or anybody's) success is the ability to judge people. I believe that @MileyCyrus is a really good person. [sic]"

He even had an opinion on her dress sense, writing two days later: "I am a defender of @MileyCyrus, who I think is a good person (and not because she stays at my hotels), but last night's outfit must go! [sic]"
Strangely enough, Miley herself seems to have mixed opinions regarding the Republican leader. Indeed, after Trump's victory in the 2016 Presidential Election, Cyrus posted a vlog on Twitter, sharing her feelings and misgivings about Trump as a leader.

Miley stated: "Happy hippies, we adjust and we accept everyone for who they are. And so Donald Trump, I accept you. And this hurts to say, but I even accept you as the President of the United States, and that's fine, that's fine because I think now I want to be a hopeful hippie."

She added: "But please just treat people with love and treat people with compassion and treat people with respect and I will do the same for you. Anything you want to talk about or understand, please if you want to open your mind and your heart I would love to give you a key."

The President has not yet commented on the couple's most recent breakup, but knowing him, I have a feeling he has some strong opinions on the matter...
