Liam Hemsworth discusses ‘wonderful’ marriage to Miley Cyrus as pair make first public appearance since wedding

'It doesn't feel like a lot's changed, on one hand, but on the other hand it does'

Liam Hemsworth has opened up about his marriage to Miley Cyrus, describing their December wedding as a “really nice, beautiful day”.

The actor spoke about their relationship while attending the G’Day USA Gala in California, an event honouring prominent Australian individuals from the worlds of entertainment, sports and culture.

The occasion marked Hemsworth and Cyrus’ first joint public appearance since tying the knot.

While being interviewed on the red carpet, Hemsworth described the intimacy of their wedding, having only invited a selection of close relatives and friends to witness their nuptials.

“It was great. It was just a really nice, beautiful day with our immediate family and a couple of close friends,” the Australian actor said.

“It’s wonderful. We’ve been together for the better part of 10 years,” he added.

“It doesn’t feel like a lot’s changed, on one hand, but on the other hand it does. It’s all great, I’m loving it.”

Hemsworth and Cyrus first met on the set of the 2010 Nicholas Sparks film The Last Song, in which they play each other’s love interests.

The couple have since faced much media scrutiny with regards to the state of their relationship.

The pair eventually married in secret in Cyrus’ hometown of Nashville in 2018, two days before Christmas.

The singer revealed she and Hemsworth had married with a series of black and white photographs on Instagram.

Cyrus wore a stunning off-the-shoulder Vivienne Westwood gown for the occasion, while Hemsworth opted for a classic black suit and tie.

At the G’Day USA gala, which took place in Los Angeles, Hemsworth was honoured with the Excellence in Film award, following in the footsteps of his older brother and fellow actor Chris Hemsworth.

Some of Liam Hemsworth’s best known acting credentials include his portrayal of Gale Hawthorne in The Hunger Games film series, his role in 2015 film The Dressmaker opposite Kate Winslet and his parts in Australian soap operas Neighbours and Home and Away.

“I feel extremely lucky and very privileged to be in the position I’m in,” he said at the G’Day USA gala.

“Getting an award for doing something I already feel so privileged to do and so lucky to do, it just feels weird,” he added.

“But at the same time it’s a huge honour and I’m very thankful for it.”
