Romance rumors immediately started when
photos
of
Miley Cyrus
dining with alt-rocker
Yungblud
surfaced on Friday, but a source close to the two claims they are “just friends.”
A source tells
People
that Miley, 28, and Yungblud, 23, were enjoying lunch with a group of friends at the Rainbow Bar & Grill in West Hollywood, and from the pictures, the two seemed to be getting awfully close with each other. At one point, he had his legs in her lap; he was also photographed stroking her hair.
Miley has been single since breaking things off with boyfriend
Cody Simpson
in August, after dating for about 10 months. She was previously married to
Liam Hemsworth
from 2018 to 2019.
As for Yungblud, the British singer, born
Dominic Harrison
, dated
Halsey
in the past. In December,
he told
the British magazine
Attitude
that he is polyamorous and pansexual, and said that dating Halsey, who’s openly bisexual, helped him come to terms with his own sexuality.
Coincidentally, Miley has also
described herself
as pansexual in the past.
