The eye-catching jewelry was hard to miss once you noticed it. It stood out when the singer placed her right hand on the 27-year-old's chest while posing for pictures. In the photo at the top of this article, it is practically the third-largest item visible.
The huge diamond, set in a thick gold band, really glimmered as the cameras snapped photos of the couple.
So fans can't help but wonder: Are Cyrus and Morando engaged?
Hasn't Miley Cyrus Been Engaged Before?
Cyrus was engaged to actor Liam Hemsworth (brother of Chris) twice. The first time was around 2012, but the couple separated in 2013.
Then in 2016, Cyrus and Hemsworth reunited. They married in 2018, but divorced two years later. While it is rumored that the song "Flowers" is about her relationship with Hemsworth, Cyrus denies this.
"I wrote it in a really different way. The chorus was originally: 'I can buy myself flowers, write my name in the sand, but I can't love me better than you can.' It used to be more, like, 1950s," she said at the time. "The saddest song. Like: 'Sure, I can be my own lover, but you're so much better.' The song is a little 'fake it till you make it,' which I'm a big fan of."
When Did Cyrus and Morando Start Dating?
Cyrus and Morando, a producer and drummer in the band Liily, reportedly met on a blind date in 2021. They publicly confirmed their relationship the following year.
The couple has kept their relationship private. The 33-year-old briefly talked about her relationship with Morando with Harper's Bazaar last year.
"I worked with my dad forever," she said. "That's how me and my ex-husband met each other. I've always worked with the people that I love. And Maxx just inspires me so much."
Fans also spotted the ring in a pic Morando's father shared online. In the pic, he offers his Cyrus and his son his congratulations. Per TMZ, reps for neither Cyrus nor Morando have responded to requests for comment.
