Miley Cyrus teased her new single, “Flowers,” on Instagram three years after finalising her divorce from Liam Hemsworth, sharing a short portion of the lyrics: “I can love me better than you can.”

The 30-year-old Malibu singer announced the news on her Instagram page, revealing that her next single, Flowers, will be released on January 13. Fans were quick to notice a connection between Cyrus’ release date and her ex Liam Hemsworth’s birthday.

Miley Cyrus will be a wrecking ball in 2023. Before ringing in the New Year, the pop star surprised her Instagram followers by revealing new music is on the way. Simply put, she captioned her December 31 post, “NEW YEAR, NEW MILEY, NEW SINGLE.”

Miley even performed a small portion of the song, “Flowers,” in which she sang the lyrics: “I can love myself better than you can.”

The 30-year-old also revealed that her song will be released on January 13, which is also the birthday of her ex-husband Liam Hemsworth. While Miley has yet to comment on whether her new music was intended to coincide with her ex’s birthday, it’s clear from the lyrics she teased that the song is rich in meaning.

Furthermore, the month of January is significant for the former married couple, who divorced in January 2020. A source close to Liam told E! News at the time that they were both looking forward to closing this chapter in their lives.

“This motivates each other put their past behind them,” an insider explained. ” “It’s a relief for them.” “The two are eager to resolve any remaining issues.”

After less than a year of marriage, the Hunger Games actor filed for divorce in August 2019. The two had announced their split two weeks prior, with Miley’s rep telling E! News that they had both agreed to separate.

According to the singer’s rep, the couple, who are ever-changing as individuals and partners, have decided that this is the most beneficial thing for both of them while they are concerned with “ones self and professional lives,” according to the singer’s representative.

Since calling it quits, the two have kept the details of their split private. However, exactly one year after the news broke, the singer shared a glimpse into her road to healing after heartbreak.

Cyrus and Hemsworth dated on and off for ten years after meeting on the set of Nicholas Sparks’ novel-turned-film The Last Song in 2009.

The two played young love interests and quickly fell in love. They were engaged in 2012 but divorced the following year. They rekindled their romance in 2015 and married in December 2018. Only a few months later, in August 2019, Cyrus and Hemsworth announced their separation.

Cyrus has since moved on with Maxx Morando, Liily Drummer’s boyfriend of nearly a year. Liam has also been going strong with his three-year girlfriend, Gabriella Brooks.
