Liam Hemsworth has finally addressed his shocking and heart-breaking split with Miley Cyrus – who he married over Christmas last year after a ten-year on/off romance.

And he’s been just as dignified as we would have expected…

The 29-year-old actor broke his silence on his Instagram account yesterday, in a bid to put an end to all the false rumors about his reactions to the “private matter”…

“Hi all,” the post began.

“Just a quick note to say that Miley and I have recently separated and I wish her nothing but health and happiness going forward.

“This is a private matter and I have not made, nor will I be making, any comments to any journalists or media outlets. Any reported quotes attributed to me are false.

“Peace and Love.”

The post has already received over two million likes, with a lot of support coming from A-list pals such as Tom Welling, Ryan Rottman, and Ryan Garcia, to name just a few.

Liam Hemsworth’s official social media statement comes just one day after an alleged comment he made to a tabloid newspaper circulated…

“You don’t understand what it’s like. I don’t want to talk about it mate,” he allegedly told Daily Mail Australia when the news of the split first went public.

Several sources have claimed that the Hunger Games actor has been having a “difficult few weeks” in the lead up to the separation…

“It makes him uncomfortable that everything has been so public,” a source reportedly told E! News.

“It’s been a difficult few weeks for him. He’s with his family and just wants to be around people that are going to support him and try and take his mind off of what’s going on.”

Let’s hope that Liam’s family and friends can give him the support he needs during this difficult time…
