Miley Cyrus sparked major marriage speculation on Friday after her mother, Tish Cyrus, appeared to refer to fiancé Maxx Morando as the singer’s "husband” during her Hollywood Walk of Fame ceremony.
The 'Flowers' hitmaker, 33, was honored with the 2,845th star on the iconic Hollywood Walk of Fame and celebrated the milestone surrounded by family, friends and famous supporters in Los Angeles.
During the glitzy ceremony, Miley posed for photos beside her new star, which is located directly across from the famed Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel. She was joined by her mother Tish and older sister Brandi Cyrus for a series of family snaps before one unexpected moment quickly caught fans' attention.

Both Miley and Tish then motioned for Maxx, 27, to step into the frame. The musician happily joined the Grammy winner before leaning in to place a sweet kiss on her cheek as cameras captured the affectionate moment.

The pair first began dating in 2021 after reportedly meeting on a blind date and have largely kept their romance out of the spotlight. However, they have made occasional public appearances together over the years, including at the Hannah Montana 20th Anniversary Special in March.

"He's very similar to me. We just don't take life too seriously," she said at the time.
The singer also joked about their different upbringings, explaining: "He grew up with a laptop. I had a desktop computer that I shared with my brothers and sisters."

Friday's ceremony marked another major milestone for Miley, who delivered an emotional speech while accepting her star.
"What's so special to me about this star is that it's an accumulation of devotion," she told the crowd.
