While singer and actress Noah Cyrus may have spent the early years of her career in the shadow of her older sister Miley Cyrus, she has proven her talents with a Grammy Award nomination. The "Lonely" singer secured her first Grammy nod in 2021 in the Best New Artist category, alongside the likes of Doja Cat, Megan Thee Stallion, and D Smoke.
Aside from her singing and songwriting, Noah has made headlines for her risk-taking fashion, her emotional lyrics, and her high-profile relationships.
From those infamous photos with Lil Xan, to her alleged fleeting romance with Demi Lovato, to her controversial reported relationship with Dominic Purcell (who would later marry her mom Tish!), we have a refresher on the Ponyo actress's dating timeline. Keep reading to learn more about her relationship history.
Noah Cyrus has a song (and a tattoo) with her ex Tanner Drayton.
The artist's first public relationship appears to have been with musician Tanner Drayton, who goes by the stage name Tanner Alexander.
The couple released a song together called "Lately" in 2018, and they got tattoos together in June of that year.
Celebrity tattoo artist JonBoy worked with Noah and Tanner, and they each got five stars tattooed (four of them were filled in) on their lower arms.
The two split shortly after getting matching ink, further proving that getting couple tattoos is the kiss of death.
Noah Cyrus dated rapper Lil Xan in 2018.
Noah's started dating rapper Lil Xan (real name Diego Leanos) in June 2018, when Lil Xan sent a DM to Noah asking to hang out. Their romance began shortly after the "End of Everything" artist ended her relationship with Tanner.
When the duo attended the 2018 MTV VMAs together, they took a few photos on the red carpet — and they soon went viral.
Despite publicly professing their love for one another on social media, Noah and Lil Xan split by September 2018. They each took to their respective Instagram stories to discuss the breakup, and things got messy fast.
They both accused the other of cheating, and Lil Xan accused Noah of faking their relationship.
Lil Xan later apologized to Noah and the rest of the Cyrus family for the breakup. He began dating YouTuber Gabby Parsons in November 2019, but they broke up in the summer of 2020 because of his reported infidelity.
He did appear in public with Noah again in April 2020, but it the two didn't reignite their relationship.
Noah Cyrus *may* have dated DJ Diablo too.
The former Hannah Montana guest star dated another heavily tattooed music star in the fall of 2019. Diablo, who is a DJ, confirmed his relationship with Noah with an Instagram post. In one of the photos he put up, he can be seen giving Noah a kiss on the lips.
Noah never confirmed that she was dating Diablo, but she did post about him being a good friend.
Noah Cyrus was spotted getting cozy with Machine Gun Kelly at the 2020 Grammy Awards.
During an after-party for the Grammy Awards in January 2020, onlookers noticed that Noah was holding hands with Machine Gun Kelly.
The two had previously interacted with one another online, and she appeared in the music video for his 2019 song "I Think I'm Okay," but it was the first time that they had been linked romantically.
MGK is now in a high-profile relationship with Megan Fox.
While Noah was rumored to be packing on the PDA with MGK at the 2020 Grammys, she hoped to ring in the 2021 ceremony with a win of her own.
Noah Cyrus was Instagram official with Smokepurpp.
In the summer of 2020, Noah began posting about her relationship with rapper Smokepurpp and she was publicly spotted holding his hand in Los Angeles.
"No one makes me happier," she captioned a snapshot of her and Smokepurpp in July.
The two didn't post anything together after that summer, but still followed one another on Instagram.
In November 2020, Noah confused fans when she captioned one of her posts, "My boyfriend says I have nice eyes." It's unclear whether she was referring to Smokepurpp with this post, if she was dating someone else, or if her words were simply just written for the sake of the caption.
Noah Cyrus reportedly dated Tana Mongeau in 2020.
Beginning in the fall of 2019, Noah and YouTuber Tana Mongeau sporadically teased that they were in a relationship. The rumors died down shortly thereafter when they stopped posting content together. However, the speculation was reignited in September 2020 when Tana referred to Noah as her "girlfriend."
"I mean ofc [of course] I had to take a break from Instagram until she was my girlfriend again," the Tana Turns 21 star shared in an Instagram post on Sept. 27, 2019.
Noah and Tana dressed up for Halloween together, and they began posting photos with one another again. But, Tana seemed to tease that she was single in a tweet she posted in November 2020.
"I will now be accepting any and all applications for a holiday season boyfriend OK go," she wrote on Nov. 22.
Noah Cyrus was then linked to singer Demi Lovato.
Following Noah and Demi's performance at the 2021 YouTube Pride event, the pair was spotted out and about at Six Flags in July 2021. Previously, Noah and Demi collaborated on the song "Easy" for Demi's album "Dancing With the Devil." Rumors soared after photographs showed them holding hands and walking around the park.
Noah Cyrus reportedly dated actor Dominic Purcell — aka her mom Tish's future husband.
Though we all know that Noah's mom Tish married Prison Break actor Dominic Purcell in August 2023, headlines blared in early 2024 that before he married Tish, Dominic had apparently been seeing Noah.
"Noah and Dominic were seeing each other in a friends with benefits way, off and on," a source claimed to People. "They stopped seeing each other and then Tish started something up." The source also noted that "Tish knew he had been seeing Noah."
Noah was reportedly "offended" by what her mom did, with the source claiming that "Tish never gave Noah the chance to talk about all of this before they got married."
Messy!
Noah Cyrus announced her engagement to Pinkus in June 2023.
In April 2023, Noah introduced the world to her relationship with a fashion designer, Pinkus. It was only two months later, in June 2023, that she took to Instagram to tell us that they were engaged!
"The greatest moment of my entire life was saying 'yes' to spending the rest of ours together," she wrote on her Instagram post.
What did Pinkus have to say about the announcement? He commented, “u want kids?” on her post.
