Letting the photo do all the talking, Cyrus captioned the photo with a simple red heart. He also shared the image on his Instagram Stories, accompanied by his song, “Missing You.”
Hurley reciprocated the public display of affection by commenting, “❤you xx.”

The couple first sparked dating rumors on Easter when they shared an affectionate photo in a joint Instagram post. The snap showed Cyrus kissing Hurley on the side of her face as they both leaned against a picket fence. PEOPLE confirmed their romance shortly after.
A Cyrus source told PEOPLE that he and Hurley have known each other for years after meeting on the set of 2022’s Christmas in Paradise.
“Liz is great and visited him for Easter. They’ve been seeing each other romantically for a little bit. And how lucky is he? Liz is lovely,” said the source. “She’s very warm, positive and the best to be around.”
Cyrus later recalled the meeting on Apple Music Country’s The Ty Bentli Show, which PEOPLE published an exclusive excerpt from before its premiere.
“We did very few scenes together but the couple times we were in the same scene there was a chemistry there. We just laughed, and it was at a time I wasn’t laughing a lot,” Cyrus said of Hurley.
“The oddest part was first, how much we laughed,” he continued. “Second, I figured we were so different but in some very strange way we had way more in common than we had different.”
During the interview, Cyrus also teased that fans would see a photo of Hurley kissing him, like the one seen on his latest Instagram post.
As for the reason, Cyryus said that “people have been saying, ‘Why’s he always kissing her?’ ”
