Singer and actress Miley Cyrus and actor Liam Hemsworth call off Engagement

The 20-year-old singer admitted to Harper’s Bazaar that she doesn’t ‘have time to deal with a wedding right now’, a clear indication her engagement had hit a rocky patch. 

While representatives for both Miley and Liam confirmed to People that they have ended their relationship, Miley previously admitted the nuptials weren’t a priority for her and spoke about her stressful personal life.

She told the publication’s October 2013 issue:  ‘I definitely don't have time to deal with a wedding right now. But I will at some point.

‘I'm someone who cares about the real things in life. There are things that are personal that stress me out, but my career? That doesn't affect me. I know I'm doing what I'm supposed to be doing.’

The comments to the magazine were revealed just after it emerged Miley, 20 and 23-year-old Liam are on a break.

A source told RadarOnline: 'They’ve split for now. Miley and Liam have a very tumultuous relationship and both are exhausted. It’s a complicated relationship. The wedding is on hold, for now. It’s not cancelled but it doesn’t look promising.'

This weekend, Miley gave the clearest indication that her relationship with Liam had hit trouble, by unfollowing the Australian actor on Twitter however, Liam is still following Cyrus.

Meanwhile, Miley added to Harper’s Bazaar that her recent outrageous behaviour, which has included a now infamous performance at the MTV VMA awards, and getting naked in her Wrecking Ball video, is simply her enjoying a bout of immaturity.

She said: 'I was an adult when I was supposed to be a kid. So now I'm an adult and I'm acting like a kid.'

She offered advice to  former child star Lindsay Lohan, who has been in and out of rehab facilities in recent years, claiming the troubled actress will never be able to cut toxic people out of her life.

She said, ‘I'm like, “Honey, you're going to have to move out of this universe because everywhere you go there are toxic people.” ’

Miley also encouraged Justin Bieber to take a break so he can be ‘crazy’ in private.

‘I'm not saying you need to take a break because you're crazy. I'm saying you need to take a break so you can be crazy, and people aren't going to judge you. You're going to do dumb stuff from here on out. But do it in your own time. Do it safely. You can afford to protect yourself and still have fun.’
