Miley Cyrus has a budding romance with Patrick Schwarzenegger, but her ex Liam Hemsworth apparently isn't totally feeling the singer's new male companion.

Miley Cyrus Shows Off Wrist Surgery With Humor

On Thursday, Hollywood Life reported how Cyrus' ex feels about her relationship with Patrick Schwarzenegger.

A source revealed to the site Hemsworth will always care about Cyrus, which isn't really surprising given their history. They met while on set of The Last Song and their whirlwind romance took off. They were on and off and were even engaged before finally calling it quits in 2013.

Miley Cyrus Is Reportedly Banned From Kennedy Christmas Celebration By Patrick Schwarzenegger's Mom

The source said, "He does still care about Miley. He still feels protective of her."

"He hopes she's happy but he can't help but be a little suspicious of Patrick," the source added.

"He thinks he could just be using Miley for publicity. He hopes that's not what's happening but Liam has his doubts," the source revealed.

Schwarzenegger is a student at USC, but also dabbles in modeling and acting so Hemsworth's inkling could prove to be true down the line.

Hemsworth isn't the only one who has issues with the couple. Schwarzenegger's mom Maria Shriver is reportedly not thrilled about them dating either as is Schwarzenegger's father, Arnold Schwarzenegger.

Thursday Hollywood Life reported that Shriver banned Cyrus from their Christmas celebration. Plus, there have been other previous reports from The Economic Times and Hollywood Life detailing how Patrick's parents apparently feel about their son dating the singer.

The odds are against them, but maybe they'll prove to be a strong, steady couple. Other sources have revealed to Hollywood Life that the couple has "so much fun together."
