Miley Cyrus has revealed she feels it was a ‘blessing’ that her home she bought with then-husband Liam Hemsworth burned down a month before they moved in in 2018
Pop superstar Miley Cyrus has revealed how the home she shared with ex-husband Liam Hemsworth burning down was “the biggest blessing”. The catastrophe happened a month before the pair tied the knot in 2018.
The four-bedroom house, which the former couple bought together for $2.52million was set to be their dream home. However, Miley has since reflected on the “dark time” they faced due to the Woolsey Fire.
Speaking during a Q&A session a her Something Beautiful event on Tuesday, the 32-year-old star said: “When my house burned down, that was the biggest blessing I’ve ever had in my life, actually.”
She added: “‘Losing everything and being able to rebuild, and to be able to be purposeful and choose every piece that I’m gonna collect or also just about the people in my life. And I guess for me, when my house burned down, a lot of my relationships also burned down, and that again just led me to such magic and to have so much gratitude.”
Mayra then told the crowd: ‘I think what I would have told my younger self is to appreciate those darker times because, like I said, they are only leading you into the light.”
Miley’s marriage to Liam, 35, ended as the pair divorced in 2020. She previously opened up on the trauma she went through after the devastation of losing the property. She had been on the set of Netflix’s Black Mirror in South Africa when she was informed her home had been destroyed.
In a TikTok message in 2023, Miley told her followers: “Actually as my house was burning down I was strapped to a gurney with my hands locked in handcuffs strapped to a bed.
The had to film her pop star character Ashley O’s dance-filled On a Roll music video the next day as she shrugged: “The show must go on!”
Miley has faced tension in her family in recent years. And that tension within the family erupted as Miley’s parents, Billy Ray and Tish, split and then divorced in 2023 after 30 years of marriage.
After two previous divorce filings, the pair finally went their separate ways in April 2022, saying at the time: “We have grown up together, raised a family we can be so proud of, and it is now time to create our own paths.”
Things turned sour shortly after and a bitter war of words between the Cyrus family erupted this year following Billy Ray’s performance at President Trump’s inauguration. It’s speculated that Miley took her mum’s side in the divorce.
