Watch: Miley Cyrus & Kaitlynn Carter Hold Hands After 2019 VMAs

After enjoying the 2019 MTV Video Music Awards on Monday, Miley Cyrus and Kaitlynn Carter attended the same after-party as Brody Jenner.

The 26-year-old singer and the 30-year-old star of The Hills: New Beginnings attended Columbia Records' bash at New York's Up&Down. The two arrived holding hands around 1:00 a.m. and headed to the VIP section. Brody arrived about 20 minutes later; however, he was not seated near the duo. The 36-year-old reality star, who called it quits with Kaitlynn earlier this summer, sat at a table near the DJ booth. He was also spotted with Josie Canesco.

However, they weren't the only celebrities in attendance. Miley's famous family members, Billy Ray Cyrus and Tish Cyrus, were also there. During the party, guests celebrated the success of "Old Town Road," which won the award for Song of the Year earlier in the night.

After staying for a bit, Miley and Kaitlynn left the party. Brody and Josie headed out at around 2:15 a.m., and he was spotted wrapping his arm around the 22-year-old model while waiting for their car. 

"Everyone stayed inside [for] about an hour," an insider told E! News. "[The] club is very small, but no interaction was seen."

Earlier in the night, Miley took the VMAs stage to perform her new hit "Slide Away." Kaitlynn was later spotted walking with the artist backstage and resting her hand on her head.

"Miley and Kaitlynn have been inseparable for almost two months, and it's no surprise that Miley asked Kaitlynn to go to the VMAs," another insider told E! News. "Kaitlynn has been a huge support system for Miley, and they haven't left each other's sides in almost six weeks. They are basically living together at this point, and their relationship is getting more serious."

Miley and Kaitlynn were spotted kissing earlier this summer during an Italian getaway. The vacation came shortly after fans learned about the "Malibu" singer's split from Liam Hemsworth. The 29-year-old actor has since filed for divorce from Miley. However, she recently took to Twitter to deny any cheating rumors.

"I can admit to a lot of things, but I refuse to admit that my marriage ended because of cheating," she wrote via the social network last week. "Liam and I have been together for a decade. I've said it before and it remains true, I love Liam and always will."

 Earlier this summer, a source told E! News Miley and Kaitlynn are friends and recently bonded over their public splits.    

"Miley just wants to be healthy and happy," an insider told E! News, noting she had been separated from Liam for months. "This isn't easy for her."

Now, a source tells E! News "Miley has expressed she can be her true self around Kaitlynn" and that "their relationship has been very easy—something Miley hasn't had in a long time."

"Kaitlynn has been staying with Miley in LA and has been traveling with her," the insider continued. "They have plans to spend time in both Nashville and Malibu and their relationship isn't slowing down at this point."
