Hemsworth had introduced Brooks to his parents, Craig and Leonie, over a family lunch in mid-December. A source recently told US Weekly that Brooks is popular with the Hemsworths. ''Liam feels comfortable with Gabriella. His family approves of her and really likes her, which is very important to him,'' the insider claimed.

Who is Gabriella Brooks?

For those who don't know, Brooks is an Australian model. She hails from Australia and is just 21 years old. She studied ancient history and archaeology from Sydney University. Brooks has worked with several top brands such as The Lovers and Drifters Club, Topshop and Calvin Klein.

Before Hemsworth, Brooks dated The 1975's frontman, Matt Healy, for four years. Apparently, they broke up in early 2019. As per reports, their lifestyle differences led to their split. "He parties a lot at home when he's there and Gabby had just had enough," one insider shared. "She doesn't want to lead her life like that."

Miley Cyrus and Liam's relationship

Miley Cyrus and Hemsworth's announcement to part ways after being married for eight months came as a surprise to many. Cyrus and Hemsworth met when they were teenagers on the sets of "The Last Song" in 2009. They dated on and off for nearly 10 years before they tied the knot on December 23, 2018, at Cyrus' family's home in Franklin, Tennessee.
