The 16-year-old US star has been romantically linked to British guitarist Steve Rushton, 22, who now plays guitar in her backing band for her film 'Hannah Montana: The Movie'.
A source told Britain's The Sun newspaper: "Steve relocated to the US after signing his deal with Disney.
"Miley couldn't wait for him to move. He first met her on the set of the 'Hannah Montana' film after he was asked to play lead guitar for her band.
"They hit it off straight away. When they have been apart they have been spending hours instant messaging each other.
"She is still young but she is smitten with him. They are very much in love."
Steve got his first break as bassist in Son Of Dork - fronted by ex-Busted star James Borne - who had two top ten singles in the UK in 2005 and 2006.
More recently he has written songs for Miley to perform on her TV show 'Hannah Montana' and forthcoming Disney film 'G-Force'.
It has also been claimed Steve and Miley's ex-boyfriend Justin Gaston - whom she recently split from - didn't see eye to eye.
A source said: "Justin never got on with Steve. He was put out by Steve's fantastic relationship with Miley's dad Billy Ray Cyrus."
