Miley Cyrus has long lived her life out loud, but for the past three years she’s mostly kept her relationship with boyfriend Maxx Morando out of the spotlight—a move that certainly seems to be working for her. Sources say she and her musician beau are happier than ever.

Paul Mescal and Gracie Abrams had a big night out together at the L.A. premiere of his new film Gladiator II on Nov. 18. While the actor, 28, and the singer, 25, did not walk the red carpet together, they appeared very affectionate at the premiere’s afterparty. “They looked happy together,” says an onlooker. “Occasionally Paul would get swallowed up in the party, but they always found their way back to each other, with lots of laughing and smiling.” Mescal and Abrams (the daughter of director J.J.
