Maxx Morando Outsmarted Miley Cyrus — Source

Miley Cyrus was reportedly preparing to take the lead with her own engagement plans with Maxx Morando, a source revealed. She had carefully selected potential locations and confided only in a few close friends to keep her intentions secret. However, during a recent trip to Asia, which she later described as a moment when she completely surrendered control, the 27-year-old singer found herself on the receiving end of a proposal, catching her off guard.

According to insiders, Cyrus had been quietly planning to propose for weeks, arranging the details and believing she would be the one to surprise Morando. She thought she would be the one doing the surprising, one source said. Another insider mentioned that she had hoped to propose before the years end, but Morando acted faster than she anticipated.

During the trip to Asia, the drummer proposed first, while Cyrus later shared on Good Morning America that she was so, so surprised, proudly showing off her 14-karat gold Jacquie Aiche ring. While her public reaction reflected her emotions, those close to the couple emphasize that the timing of the proposal added a significant layer of surprise.

Cyrus and Morando, who met on a blind date four years ago, have been living together since 2024. They had discussed marriage previously and were both ready to take the next step, even if Morando ended up making the first move.
