Miley Cyrus Trolls Brody Jenner After Kissing His Ex Kaitlynn Carter

The singer has seemingly moved on with Kaitlynn Carter, after splitting with husband Liam Hemsworth.

Miley Cyrus, she who cannot be tamed, is officially living her best life after splitting with husband Liam Hemsworth, soaking in that post break-up glow with a potential new fling.

She and Liam called it quits on Saturday after less than eight months of marriage and many more as a couple. The two announced they’ve decided to “focus on themselves and careers” in a joint statement that took a wrecking ball to the hearts of fans everywhere. 

However, it seems as though Miley is taking an on-to-the-next-one approach, as hours before the news broke, she was spotted kissing Kaitlynn Carter, who recently ended her not-so-real marriage to reality TV star and Kardashian step-sibling Brody Jenner.

Miley and Kaitlynn have been vacationing in Lake Como, Italy, with Miley’s sister, and were seen packing on the PDA at the Il Sereno hotel over the weekend, where onlookers said they were “not trying to hide it at all”.

The two have been breathlessly documenting their travels on social media all week, provoking some eyebrow-raising responses from the internet and their exes. 

“Rock the boat, don’t rock the boat baby,” Kaitlynn captioned a sun-kissed image of herself and Miley. 

Brody sent out the first missive, writing ― what else ― “Hot girl summer” in the comments under the photo.

But the former The Hills star seemingly took his joking too far for Miley’s taste, quipping that “Pics of Liam and I holding hands on the beach” would be coming soon.

Cue Miley entering the conversation with a commendably petty response, alluding to a fight Brody and Kaitlynn had on a recent episode of The Hills: New Beginnings.

″@brodyjenner go take a nap in your truck and cool off #HotGirlSummer,” she hit back, adding two dancing girl emojis. 

Miley is apparently looking toward the future after the split, sharing an inspirational message about change on her Instagram

“Don’t fight evolution, because you will never win. Like the mountain I am standing on top of, which was once under water, connected with Africa, change is inevitable,” she wrote.

“Life’s a climb… but the view is great,” she later added under a separate photo. 

Liam, meanwhile, has been the only one in this love square laying relatively low.

The actor stepped out with older brother Chris Hemsworth in Byron Bay, Australia, where the two picked up some frozen yoghurt. 

He even reportedly shut down a reporter when asked about the split, explaining that he didn’t “want to talk about it, mate”, later posting a statement on his Instagram explaining that he won’t be speaking to the media about the break-up.

Celebs Who Handled Their Splits Like A Boss

Let's be honest, break-ups can be messy, particularly in the glare of the spotlight, so it's good to see when two celebrities can put their differences aside and still be friends, as Cameron and Justin did - even eventually going on to star in 'Bad Teacher' together.

Harry Styles(02 of11)

No one is exactly sure what happened between Taylor Swift and Harry Styles, but even after she appeared to mock him during an awards show performance, he's had nothing but good things to say about her and her music in the press.

Whether he's genuinely happy for her, or he's simply killing her with kindness is unclear, but either way, we could all learn a thing or two from Hazza.

And speaking of how to flawlessly handle a break-up... The media coverage surrounding Jennifer Aniston for the decade after her split from Brad Pitt, was often unnecessary, cruel and steeped in sexism.

Through it all, though, she kept her head high, continued working and, more importantly, smiling away, despite what was said about her in the press.

Now she's one of the highest-paid actresses in the world, and is married to her long-time partner, Justin Theroux.

When she and the father of her two children, Nick Cannon, split, Mariah was determined not to give the press the dirt they were craving.

So much so, when approached by a TMZ reporter, Mimi said simply: "Oh, it's much too hot to talk."

Flawless.

Elin Nordegren - better known as the former Mrs Tiger Woods - is our personal break-up hero.

So, your husband has repeatedly cheated on you and the world's media are talking about it? Whatever.

Elin's attitude throughout the scandal was flawless: head down, sunglasses on ... and just wait for that divorce settlement to roll in. Props to you, Elin.

However, sometimes it's difficult to pretend you're anything other than hurt. And do you know what? That's OK too.

In showing her vulnerable side in her documentary film, 'Part Of Me', Katy undoubtedly assured a lot of people that it's not about how hard you fall, it's how you get back up again.

Gwyneth Paltrow hasn't had a bad word to say about Chris Martin ever since they "consciously uncoupled" in 2014, and even spoke favourably about his relationship with Jennifer Lawrence.

Instead, she focused on her own career, her family and friends, and the continuing growth of her site, Goop. Now that's how you tackle a break-up like a boss.

Perhaps not quite to this extent, but sometimes a night out with your friends can be just the thing to get you through a break-up, as Katie Price proved when she flew to Ibiza, shortly after splitting up from Peter Andre. (credit:Dave Wood via Getty Images)

Determined not to let anyone paint her as a victim, J-Lo bounced back from her split with Marc Anthony by getting together with a far younger man.

Nice one, Jen.

Similarly, the world of entertainment journalism seemed determined to paint Perrie Edwards as a victim when she broke up with ex-fiancé Zayn Malik, particularly when he quickly got together with Gigi Hadid.

How did she respond to that? With independence anthem 'Shout Out To My Ex', which quickly topped the UK singles chart, and bagged Little Mix their first ever Brit Award.

And then, of course, there's Adele, who managed to turn her disastrous break-up to her advantage and bag herself a wheelbarrow of Grammys, which we have all the admiration in the world for.

What was it Beyoncé said about 'lemons' and 'lemonade' again..?
