Miley Cyrus and Brody Jenner's ex-wife Kaitlynn Carter sparked headlines recently after they were pictured spending a holiday together on Italy's stunning Lake Como - around the time the news broke that Miley and husband Liam Hemsworth had decided to separate. The two friends were also joined by Miley's sister Brandi Cyrus and male pals including pilates guru Saul Choza and eyewear designer Bradley Kenneth McPeek, and wasted no time in posting plenty of Instagram photos from their sunny break!

Their base was the exclusive penthouse suite at the Il Sereno Lake Como, an ultra-chic hotel with just 30 rooms and even its own stunning 16th-century palazzo, where the group was spotted enjoying the beautiful grounds. They were also treated to trips aboard the hotel's bespoke wooden riverboats and the stunning waterfront infinity pool. Scroll down to see more of their private Italian escape…
