A Look Back at Miley Cyrus and Patrick Schwarzenegger’s Relationship

by

The relationship between Miley Cyrus and Patrick Schwarzenegger, although short-lived (lasting just five months), remains a constant topic of interest among millennials and enthusiasts.

Back in the fall of 2014, Cyrus was initially connected to Schwarzenegger when he was a 21-year-old college student at the University of Southern California. At that time, Miley was immersed in her “Bangerz” phase.

During her time apart from Liam Hemsworth, Cyrus found herself attracted to the eldest child of Arnold Schwarzenegger and Maria Shriver.

Miley Cyrus had a passionate relationship with Patrick for several months, but their love turned rocky and rumors of his unfaithfulness emerged, causing them to separate in April 2015. The following year, Cyrus resumed her relationship with Hemsworth, eventually marrying him in 2018, only to divorce again in 2019. However, Patrick denied the infidelity allegations.

2011

During an interview with Details magazine, Patrick candidly admitted that he had a crush on Miley Cyrus in the past, even before they started dating. “Miley was always my focus,” he playfully hinted back then.

November 2014

Approximately five days before Cyrus turned 22, she was first rumored to be with Patrick. At that moment, they were seen exchanging kisses at a USC Trojans football match. The artist was dressed in Trojan attire – a beanie and letterman jacket – while Patrick stood out on the sidelines in all black.

For quite some time now, these two have been close companions,” a source revealed to Us Weekly back then. “They share many mutual acquaintances, thus they’ve been part of the same social groups for numerous years.

December 2014

In the upcoming month, the duo increased their warmth during multiple visits to Miami. On December 4th, Cyrus was snapped arm-in-arm with Patrick at the Jeremy Scott & Moschino Party, which also featured Barbie. The following day, they were spotted at La Cote, located within the Fontainebleau.

On December 5th, the duo celebrated at the Hublot Haute Living Party. Before this, Patrick had a chance to meet his father, Arnold, during a family ski vacation in Idaho. A source shared with Us after their return on December 29th that “Arnold understands his role as a father. He’s delighted for Patrick and was overjoyed when Patrick introduced him to Miley.

A few days passed, and Patrick and Cyrus celebrated the arrival of the new year at the Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino in Las Vegas, joined by the actor from Kindergarten Cop, along with friends Sofía Vergara and Joe Manganiello.

February 2015

On Instagram, Patrick declared himself as feeling extraordinarily fortunate, posting a picture alongside Cyrus in celebration of Valentine’s Day.

In that very month, I had the absolute thrill of accompanying Cyrus as my date to the Pre-Grammy Gala and Salute to Industry Icons, an event presented by Clive Davis and The Recording Academy. This special occasion was held to recognize Martin Bandier’s achievements. Inside the venue, we shared a moment, our hands entwined, while enjoying a delightful dinner together.

At the end of last month, the duo found themselves at the front row for Tom Ford’s Autumn/Winter 2015 Womenswear fashion show in Los Angeles. Nearby, you could spot none other than Scarlett Johansson and Amy Adams.

March 2015

In the heat of spring break, amidst the vibrant energy of Mexico, I found myself unwittingly entangled in an unsavory controversy. A captivating brunette beauty, shrouded in mystery, was spotted affectionately embracing me – wrapping her arms around my neck like a loving vine. The thrill of the moment led us to share a daring experience, as I partook in body shots off her, an unforgettable adventure that has now become the talk of the town.

As a loyal friend, I stand firm in my innocence. Tweeted: “Wow, it’s a close friend’s partner. I would never betray my girlfriend like that… Men and women can indeed have friendships.

April 2015

We verified on April 20th that the couple had decided to temporarily step away from their relationship following Patrick’s questionable spring break activities. As one source explained then, “The controversy took its toll.” They both discovered aspects of each other they weren’t happy with, but were making efforts to keep things going.

Two days later, Us confirmed that Cyrus and Patrick had called it quits for good.

May 2025

At the 2025 Met Gala, it’s reported that a photo captured an encounter between The White Lotus actor, Patrick, and Cyrus. In this snapshot from the event, Cyrus appears to have walked by Patrick without showing any recognition or response. (This version maintains the original’s information while using simpler, more conversational language.)

Meanwhile, Patrick wore a smile on his countenance, seemingly lost in something beyond the foreground. On the other hand, Cyrus seemed oblivious to her former boyfriend, striking poses gracefully for the camera’s lens.

June 2025

During his appearance on “Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen”, Patrick’s father, Arnold, reminisced about his relationship with Cyrus. He praised her, stating, “She’s an exceptional girl and human being. Extremely talented.” Referring to the former Hannah Montana star, he added that she was a delightful houseguest when they were skiing in Sun Valley.

Arnold expressed, “We adored her deeply. She was truly an exceptional, kind-hearted individual who brought joy to our company.

Allow me to express it this way: “I apologize for any inconvenience, but during the interim, Patrick found himself in a new relationship with Abby Champion. They’ve set their wedding date for September.” (Patrick got engaged to Abby Champion in December 2023 after eight years together.)
