Volume 90%

Miley, for her part, spoke out on social media on Sunday, August 11.

“Don’t fight evolution, because you will never win,” the “Nothing Breaks Like a Heart” singer captioned two pictures of herself on Instagram. “Like the mountain I am standing on top of , which was once under water , connected with Africa , change is inevitable.”

With a nod to her hit song “The Climb,” Cyrus added in a second post: “Life’s a climb… but the view is great.”

Carter and Jenner, meanwhile, split earlier this month after one year of marriage.

“Brody Jenner and Kaitlynn Carter have decided to amicably separate,” Jenner’s rep Scott Newman told Us in a statement at the time. “They love and respect one another, and know that this is the best decision for their relationship moving forward.” The former couple, however, were never legally married as they didn’t obtain a marriage license before their celebration in Indonesia.
