That Liam Hemsworth & Miley Cyrus Wedding isn’t Happening Any Time Soon

Miley Cyrus has been a pretty open book since her re-engagement to Liam Hemsworth in 2016. Earlier this year, she mentioned she wasn’t ready to get married to Liam just yet. Though we all hoped that her opinion would change and we’d see a Hemsworth wedding eventually, Miley is holding firm on her choice to wait.

The couple haven’t even started to think about a wedding, that’s how serious they are about staying where they are. “They consider themselves married,” a source told Us Weekly. They even said Miley and Liam, “still have zero plans of having an actual wedding.” This is kinda cute, TBH.

The source went on to tell the magazine that the couple has several friends with children and even that isn’t enough to spark a want for a family, let alone a wedding plan. “Miley loves playing with babies but isn’t ready to start a family of her own quite yet,” the source told the magazine. Well, I guess that’s that.

Before you get discouraged, just think about how they’re in a really good place right now. Who needs a wedding when you know the couple already feels like they tied the knot? If none of this is easing your sorrows about not being able to see Miley in a wedding dress, let’s just look back at how far they’ve come, shall we?

The year 2009 was the where it all began, when Miley and Liam were in The Last Song together. Though they claimed to be just friends, the pair made their first red carpet debut in 2010 as a couple for an Oscars event. Within the same year, they break up and get back together again — twice. Third time’s the charm I guess? In 2012, engagement rumors fly around because Miley is wearing a ring on *the* finger at Liam’s premiere for The Hunger Games. After a denial from Miley at first, the couple finally reveals in June 2012 that they are engaged.

After a little over a year of being engaged, the couple calls it off in September of 2013. Liam and Miley go their own ways for awhile, which is where Patrick Schwarzenegger comes into play. She dates Patrick for awhile but they eventually break up in 2015. In early 2016, Miley is spotted in Australia with Liam’s family, which sparks the rumors that the couple is back on. Shortly after, the two are spotted together and Miley is seen with her engagement ring again. Finally, after several Instagram posts together and a lot of evidence that the couple is back together, Miley confirms their engagement in October of 2016 on The Ellen DeGeneres Show. 

This condensed timeline just goes to show that Miley and Liam have a long history. They’ve been through a lot and they’re finally in a really good place. Why bother rushing into a marriage when they’re just happy to be together? Patience is truly a virtue, and I think one day we’ll see a wedding, but for now, let’s just be happy they’re so in love.
