Miley Cyrus & Liam Hemsworth: She Feels ‘Vindicated’ By His Declaration Of Love

Miley Cyrus couldn’t be happier now that former fiance Liam Hemsworth has said that their relationship will always be a huge part of his life, and his love for the pop star will never change! HollywoodLife.com has more EXCLUSIVE details on Miley’s reaction.

Miley Cyrus, 22, is on top of the world now that former fiance Liam Hemsworth, 25 has gone on record about how much their relationship meant to him. She feels vindicated that The Hunger Games hunk has revealed that his loving feelings will never change for the pop star. He also gave sweet validation to their five-year relationship as being “the real deal,” and HollywoodLife.com can report EXCLUSIVELY that Miley is absolutely thrilled with his words!

“Hearing him defend her and say he still cares about her and loves her is huge, Miley could not be happier. For a long time she was angry at him and she felt like he abandoned her so it’s that much more meaningful that he’s being so public about it, she feels vindicated,” an insider tells HollywoodLife.com EXCLUSIVELY. The couple was together for five years and engaged in 2012 before calling it quits just a year later.

As for those feelings of love that still remain, is there any chance Miley and Liam could reunite? “Who knows, crazier things have happened, but that’s not what’s happening right now, they’re strictly friends at this point,” our source shared. It’s great that the couple is still close, unlike Miley’s tension filled breakup with Patrick Schwarzenegger, 22, where she was no longer on speaking terms with him.

Liam had nothing but loving words for Miley in the upcoming issue of Men’s Fitness magazine. “You fall in love with who you fall in love with,” he said. “You can never choose. I guess some people just come with a little more baggage. I mean, look — we were together five years, so I don’t think those feelings will ever change. And that’s good because that proves to me that it was real. It wasn’t just a fling. It really was an important part of my life and always will be. She’s a free spirit. I think she’ll always surprise people with what she does, but she’s not a malicious person in any way. She’s a young girl who wants to do what she wants to do.”

While Miley Cyrus had one serious relationship since Liam – her winter 2015 love affair with Patrick – Liam has remained single since their split. The love of his life these days is a rescue pup named Tani. He posts photos of the dog on his Instragram account, the latest with the caption #TrueLove as he and Tani look into each other’s eyes.
