Liam, says our source,

was also devastated when

Miley made a U-turn over

their agreement to start

having children.

The family-oriented actor

• whose brothers Luke, 37, and
  Chris, 36, are hands-on dads
  to their large broods – was
  ready to have kids sooner
  rather than later, and he was
  crushed when Miley suddenly
  changed her mind. “He felt
  lied to,” reveals the source.

fall-out”withLiam’ssister-in-

law Elsa Pataky, 43, wife of

Thor star Chris.

“Miley accused Elsa

of being a golddigger and

leaked a string of stories

about her,” claims our source.

“Liam couldn’t stand feeling

constantly torn between

his wife and family.”

According to Miley’s

side of the story, there were

other reasons the marriage

broke down.

Four days after their

separation was announced,

sources close to the singer

said Miley had “valiantly”

tried to save the marriage, but

couldn’t abide her husband’s

“drinking a lot” and “using

certain drugs”.

The singer has made no

secret of her past battles with

substance abuse and the

sources say Liam’s dalliances

were a “deal-breaker”.

Insiders on Liam’s side,

however, deny the accusations,

saying it’s an attempt by Miley

to distract from her infidelity

and the actor has since moved

home to Australia, staying

with Chris and Elsa in

Byron Bay while he navigates

through the split.

“He’s keen to move back

to Australia permanently,”

says our exclusive source.

“LA harbours too many painful

memories for him and he

wants a clean break once the

divorce has been finalised.”
