Packing on the PDA! Miley Cyrus wrapped her arm around Kaitlynn Carter while the two strolled around Los Angeles on September 1. The ladies looked happy and chill in casual outfits while they enjoyed the sunny day. They just returned to their hometown after attending the MTV Video Music Awards in New Jersey with the pop star’s mom, Tish Cyrus, and look thrilled to be back.

A makeup-free Miley, 26, rocked a white T-shirt, jean shorts and brown Birkenstock-style slide-on shoes for the outing. For a pop of color, she added a red purse. Kaitlynn, 30, was somewhat coordinating in jeans and white crop top with sunglasses.

Both of the blonde beauties are coming off the heels of highly publicized splits. Liam Hemsworth officially filed for divorce from the singer on August 21 after eight months of marriage. Although a source exclusively told In Touch that Miley was “shocked and hurt” when the Hunger Games actor took action so quickly, “she’s moved on.”

As for The Hills: New Beginnings star, she and Brody Jenner announced on August 2 that they ended things after five years together. Despite having a wedding in Indonesia back in 2018, the two never filed the paperwork to be legally married. The two went their separate ways, but there’s no saltiness between the exes.

“Kaitlynn’s relationship with Miley doesn’t bother Brody in the slightest,” a separate source exclusively spilled to In Touch. “It’s good publicity for him. He’s still friends with [both of them].” The stud has since moved on with model Josie Canseco.

Miley and the reality starlet are enjoying the ride of exploring their new romance. “Miley’s the happiest she’s been in years,” the insider gushed. “She’s embracing her sexuality and new found freedom, and telling pals she can finally be herself without anyone getting in the way.”

For now, the new couple is seeing where life takes them. “[They’re] dating,” the source noted. “They’re both very sexual, open women who don’t take life too seriously and like to have fun — they’re crazy about each other, and friends say they make a great match.”

Glad to see things are going well!
