While flying first class to visit her parents in Thailand, Miley Cyrus and her partner were snuggled under a blanket, not even in one of the coveted pod seats.

The couple first met on the set of The Last Song in 2009, got engaged in 2012, broke up in 2013, and then reconciled in 2016. Cyrus expressed her gratitude for Hemsworth when he acted heroically during the California wildfires.
"After having sex, I realized that putting on the wig again felt strange. It was like a realization that I had grown up. While I enjoy the feeling of being sexual, I do not perform for men. Their pleasure has no bearing on the decisions I make in my career," she shared with Elle in July 2019. Check out other celebrity sex confessions throughout the years below.

Personally, I don't like the idea of someone feeling like they "hit that" after being intimate with me, even if it's a one-time thing.
