or LiamHemsworth,

the writing was on the

wall for his marriage when

his wife Miley Cyrus did

the one thing she promised

him she’d never do – go back

to her headline-grabbing,

wild-child ways.

Woman’s Day understands the

couple quietly separated in July,

just seven months after getting

married, with Liam retreating

to Byron Bay to seek comfort in

his brother Chris and his family,

and to reflect on the split and

heal his emotional pain.

“LiamhaslovedMileydeeply

for the past 10 years or more,

and to finally come to the

realisation that she was never

going to settle down with him

properly was brutal,” an insider

tells Woman’s Day exclusively.

“As she got more and more

impetuous, he knew it was over,

as much as it killed him inside.”

Insiders say the last thing

Liam expected was for Miley

to publicly move on so quickly

• and with a woman. But just
  hours after the couple
  announced their decision to

‘She’s been

an excellent

person to turn to

for advice’

As heartbroken Liam, 29, now

comes to terms with the end of

his marriage, thankfully, he is

surrounding himself with his

hometown favourites, including

pretty former Home And Away

star Isabel Lucas.

GOOD FRIENDS

Sources say single Isabel, 34,

who dated Liam’s older brother

Chris in the early 2000s while

they co-starred on the hit Seven

show,hasofferedher shoulder

for him to cry on.

“Liam’s in Byron staying with

Chris. Isabel moves in the same

social circles up there, and

they’ve spent some time

together,” another insider

reveals. “They’ve become quite

good friends. She’s there to take

his mind off things and she’s

been an excellent person to turn

to for advice. She’s in Europe at

the moment and feels bad she’s

jetted out during the worst of it

for Liam, but even so, she’s been

keeping in touch via text.”
