Liam Hemsworth embarrassed by wife Miley Cyrus’ twerking in 2019 video

Unearthed red carpet footage from February 2019 shows tension between then-newlyweds Miley Cyrus and Liam Hemsworth.

In the video, posted to Instagram on Monday by the @popcultureangel account, the Australian actor, 31, looked visibly embarrassed by the Hannah Montana star, 28, as she began twerking at a Vanity Fair Oscars after-party. 

The event took place just two weeks after the high-profile couple tied the knot.

In the footage, Miley twerked in front of Liam during their joint Access interview.

The Hunger Games actor quickly stepped away from his bride while looking uncomfortable.

‘Don’t do it. Don’t do it,’ he begged her. ‘You’re scaring everyone on the carpet.’

Miley then stopped, before glancing awkwardly at the camera.

Liam could be seen wearing his wedding ring in the video, which was recorded just six months before the A-list couple filed for divorce.

Awkward! 'Don't do it. Don't do it,' the Australian actor, 31, begged the 28-year-old Wrecking Ball singer. 'You're scaring everyone on the carpet'

In the same Monday post, another video from April showed deepening tensions between the couple as 2019 wore on.

The visibly annoyed pop star pushed her husband’s hands away, while he offered an embarrassed grin.

She then raised her arms and posed up a storm.

Liam and Miley filed for divorce just four months later, after being together on and off for a total of 10 years but only married for eight months.

He is now dating Australian model Gabriella Brooks.

It comes after Liam sent fans wild on Tuesday when he debuted what appeared to be ‘nose ring’ in an Instagram selfie. 

He shared a close-up photo alongside his dog, and fans were quick to spot what looked to be a new piercing.

The actor’s followers soon realised, however, it was just his dog’s whisker in the frame of the photo.

The insider went on to claim that he has become something of a ‘recluse’ in Byron Bay, with it even affecting his relationship with his Thor star brother, Chris.    

‘Liam and Chris have been inseparable throughout their careers, but lately Liam hasn’t seemed to be such a fixture among Chris’ social circle,’ added the source. 

Amid the influx of A-Listers flying into the country, the source also said Liam feels ‘left out’, with his brother Chris, 37, the ‘ringleader’ of the cavalcade of stars.
