A number of things have come out of the Miley Cyrus and Liam Hemsworth break-up: A new song, sunrise photos, plenty of Comments by Celebs content and a lot of ‘sources’.
Said ‘sources’ have made themselves available to tell us, the non-sources, what’s definitely been going on with the couple, who announced their split last weekend.
“Liam and Miley have agreed to separate at this time,” a representative for Miley said in a statement.
Throwback to February, when Liam gushed about Miley on TV. Post continues below audio.
“Ever-evolving, changing as partners and individuals, they have decided this is what’s best while they both focus on themselves and careers.”
The statement said the pair would “still remain dedicated parents to all their animals” and thank god, we were really starting to stress about the impact of this on their seven dogs, two mini horses, two regular-sized horses, pig and three cats.
There’s also been kissing on a boat, dancing on a boat, drinking on a boat, Instagram shade, mediocre nature photography, live commentary from Spencer Pratt and most recently a new song from Miley that’s 120 per cent about Liam.
It’s a lot to keep up with.
BUT, never fear, because the ‘sources’ are here to tell us the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth. Here’s what they’re saying.
Miley and Liam broke up because of Liam’s social life and use of ‘certain drugs’.
A ‘source’ told PEOPLE that everyone considers Miley a ‘wild child’ but it’s actually Liam whose partying was an issue.
“Everyone always thinks Miley is problematic and immature and a hardcore partier while he’s this chill surfer dude, but that’s actually [not accurate],” the ‘source’ said.
“Liam parties with his friends, and Miley thinks he should’ve grown out of that by now.”
A TMZ source “with direct knowledge of the breakup” (and who may or may not be one of their pets) said Miley’s dealbreaker was “that Liam was drinking a lot and using certain drugs, and she wanted no part of it”.
This particular rumour is also referenced in Miley’s break-up song Slide Away, which features the lines: “I want my house in the hills/Don’t want the whiskey and pills/I don’t give up easily/But I don’t think I’m down”.
Miley shared the artwork for the single on her social media and it features a whiskey bottle and a bottle of pills floating in a pool.
Yikes.
Miley and Liam broke up because of Miley’s social life.
‘Sources’ told Page Six that Miley is acting like the “old Miley” again and Liam wanted a “normal, settled-down life”.
Mamamia’s daily entertainment podcast The Spill discusses Miley and Liam’s breakup. Post continues below audio.
Miley and Liam broke up after they “grew apart”.
A ‘source’ told E! Liam was “focused on a more simplified lifestyle while Miley has been preparing for a new wave of her music career.
“She has been ready to put out music and be back in the game touring and performing. They really grew apart.”
Miley wanted to go to therapy.
‘Sources’ connected to Miley and Liam (they really should’ve asked their two mini horses and two regular-sized horses to keep their mouths shut) told TMZ Miley pushed for the pair to have therapy to work on their relationship but Liam “didn’t come close to meeting her halfway”.
Miley and Liam broke up because of Miley's unconventional view of marriage.
Liam loved that Miley had her own career and focus, but "he also wants a wife who cooks and would stay home with the kids," a 'source' who is also described as a 'friend' (clearly not a good one ¯\_(ツ)_/¯) told PEOPLE.
Miley and Liam split months ago.
A 'source' told TMZ that despite only announcing the break-up on Saturday, Miley and Liam actually broke up months ago.
Miley and Liam are just 'on a break'.
Another 'source' (or maybe the same one, because 'sources' are never given identifiers) told PEOPLE they haven't ruled out a reconciliation.
"They are having a break right now because they needed it. It was a bad situation with a lot of disagreements," said the 'source' who is 'close to Miley'. "They both agreed it’s better to spend time apart, but this doesn’t mean their relationship is completely over."
They 'source' said the pair had "been in similar situations" and "found their way back together again".
"They are great together when they are happy. There is absolutely hope that they will get back together again."
Miley and Liam's split "isn't shocking".
PEOPLE have a lot of 'sources'.
This time, a 'source' informed them that the pair's split "isn't shocking to people who are actually with them every day," and from this we gather the 'source' is one of their shared seven dogs.
"After they reunited, everyone thought they were this 'perfect' couple, but they still had a lot of issues. They’re not on the same page when it comes to a lot of fundamental things that make a relationship work. It's not surprising at all."
Miley and Kaitlynn have been for hooking up for "a couple of months".
That's according to one of Page Six's 'sources'.
Oh, and a TMZ 'source' claimed Miley had been unfaithful during their marriage.
Miley and Kaitlynn only got together after their recent splits.
While Miley and Kaitlynn have apparently known each other for a while, a 'source' told Entertainment Tonight the "hooking up" is new.
"They've known each other for several months, but the two of them hooking up is very new.
"For Miley, she's having fun, and for Kaitlynn, it seems too coincidental that she is hooking up with a huge music star, when that's what she wants most for herself in life - to be famous."
Liam is hurt but not surprised over the whole Kaitlynn thing.
Entertainment Tonight's 'source' said Liam "knows that she does this" kind of thing, referencing her being photographed kissing Kaitlynn Carter on a boat in Lake Como.
"Liam loves Miley and is hurt, but he knows that she does this. Miley and Liam very recently separated. Miley's behaviour is no shock to Liam. He is hurt but not surprised. The last several months they've been talking about taking a break."
"Liam's been frustrated with some of her antics."
Well.
Does everyone understand what the heck is going on now?
Where would we be without 'sources' and their valiant pursuit to ensure we're all kept in the loop?

Augh, I wish I didn't know a thing about this but sadly I've read all the articles.
The claim that Miley is upset that Liam is taking drugs and partying and she wanted him to grow out of it is laughable. Who knows what really goes on behind closed doors - but what we do know is that direct quotes from Miley and pictures that she herself has posted paint a very different picture.
