Italian getaway, “Miley and Kaitlynn
were spending lots and lots of time
together,” says another source. “Mi-
ley will go to Kaitlynn’s house [in
West Hollywood, where she’s been
living since her split from Brody] late
at night — dropped off in an SUV —
and spend hours there. Everyone
suspected they were hooking up.”
The Italy vacation isn’t their firsttrip together either, adds a U.K. in-
sider. “Miley and Kaitlynn were in
England earlier in the summer. Kait-
lynn was behind the scenes when
Miley was performing at the Glaston-
bury music festival at the end of
June, but kept a low profile. There
was a lot of flirting going on that
didn’t go unnoticed.”
LIAM’S REVENGE?
Though Miley and Liam certainly
loved each other, some of the red
flags concerning their marriage now
seem tough to ignore. Both have ad-
mitted they exchanged vows at Mi-
ley’s Tennessee home in December
in large part because they’d strug-
gled with the devastating loss of
their Malibuhomeinthe Woolsey
Fire lastNovember(seeabove).The
wedding, Liam said in May, “was
something really good coming out
of a horrible situation. It was going
to happen eventually, but I think
this just sped it up a little bit.” Ac-
cording to Miley, “I’m not sure with-
out losing Malibu, we would’ve been
ready to take this step or ever even
gotten married.”
Miley also raised eyebrows this
summer when she shared some load-
ed lyrics to the song “Never Be Me”
off her upcoming seventh studio al-
bum: “If you’re looking for faithful,
that’ll never be me / If you’re looking
for stable, that’ll never be me / If
you’re looking for someone that’ll be
all that you need, that’s never going
to be me.” Liam had to find that out
the hard way, says the insider, adding
that this divorce “could get very in-
teresting. I don’t think they have a
prenup, and Miley is worth some-
thing like $250 million. Liam doesn’t
come close to that. He’s so hurt, I
wouldn’t be surprised if he goes after
a chunk of her fortune.” ◼WHOKNEW?
BRODY & LIAM
ARE FRIENDS!
Liam and Brody got to know each
other years ago while surfing
together, says a source. After
Kaitlynn posted a swimsuit selfie
of her and Miley on Aug. 9, Brody
commented, “Hot girl summer,”
adding a flame emoji. When pics
of Miley and Kaitlynn making out
surfaced, he seemingly tried to
bring some levity to the messy
situation by posting, “Watch out!
Pics of Liam and I holding hands
on the beach coming soon.” But
Brody may be better off saying
nothing. “Liam is hurting right
now,” says a friend. “While
Brody may think he’s helping, his
comments are inappropriate.”2018
HEARTBREAKING DISASTER
When a wildfire burns their
Malibu home to the ground,
Miley expresses gratitude for
Liam amid the tragedy. “My
animals and LOVE OF MY LIFE
made it out safely and that’s all
that matters right now,” she
writes on social media.2018

other,” she explains of their
reconciliation.
