Liam Hemsworth doesn’t seem to be sweating his recent breakup with Miley Cyrus — but he is sweating. The Hunger Games actor, 23, has been putting in some serious time at the gym since splitting with his 20-year-old fiancee earlier this month. And it shows.
Walking around West Hollywood after a workout on Thursday, May 30, the newly single star looked ready to take on anything. Having just come from the gym, he was dressed casually in black shorts, neon green sneakers, and a white tank top that showcased his bulging biceps and buff chest.
The outing came just one day after Us Weekly broke the news of his split from Cyrus, whom he met in 2009 on the set of the movie The Last Song. The couple dated for three years before getting engaged last June; in the time since then, they’ve grown both up and apart.
“They had the worst fights,” source says in the new issue of Us Weekly. “They know what makes each other tick.”
Adds another insider: “The are definitely over.”
The breakup likely comes as a relief to Hemsworth’s family, who were vocal about their concerns over the actor’s engagement. As Us Weekly reported exclusively in early May, the star’s brothers, Chris and Luke Hemsworth, staged an intervention in April to get him to “end the romance for good.”
Cyrus, for her part, has been throwing herself into her work amid all the drama. In a recent interview with V magazine, she said her new album was her top priority.
“I put this record before everything, and I’ve never done that with anything,” she told the mag. “I’ve put too much into this record to put anything else in front of it.”
