Miley Cyrus and Liam Hemsworth announce their separation

Miley Cyrus and Liam Hemsworth have separated after serving less than a year of having married.

A spokesman for the singer announced last Saturday to People that the couple has decided to leave different paths on a sidewalk while paying full attention to “themselves and their careers.”

The couple met in 2010 while filming Nicolas Sparks ‘ film “The Last Song” and have maintained an intermittent relationship for almost a decade.

The representative said the couple will remain “parents dedicated to all their animals they share.”
