It seems like the most famous of American families and the closest thing to royalty in the United States, the Kennedys, have found themselves in the midst of gossip news once more: apparently, Miley Cyrus and Patrick Schwarzenegger are now a thing!
The Kennedy family has been in the spotlight since at least the late 50s, when John F. Kennedy was a prominent politician in the United States, becoming President by 1961 and being famously assassinated in 1963.
His niece, Maria Shriver, the daughter of his sister Patricia Kennedy, went on to marry bodybuilder/actor/former California Republican Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger. So, in other words, JFK was Patrick's great-uncle!
Coming from such a prominent family, it's no surprise that Patrick would end up going out with some of the world's hottest stars. After being seen together in the latest University of Southern California (USC) game - and making out right in the middle of the stadium, according to Hollywood Life -, it seems like it's official that Miley Cyrus and Patrick Schwarzenegger are dating now.
Earlier this month, celebrity gossip website Perez Hilton had reported that Miley Cyrus and Patrick Schwarzenegger were having a quiet relationship away from the cameras, so it hasn't been all that secretive from the beginning. But it's to be expected, as Miley is one of the most recognized faces in the world, haunted by paparazzi everywhere she goes.
Now, while they hadn't escaped the eye of the cameras lately, this is the first definite proof that Miley Cyrus and Patrick Schwarzenegger are now an item!
Earlier this week, it was reported that things between Miley Cyrus and Patrick Schwarzenegger were getting serious - so much that she'd already met his mom, journalist Maria Shriver.
While obviously, anyone would think that Patrick's "The Terminator" dad Arnold Schwarzenegger would be the truly intimidating in-law, Maria Shriver has a lot of things on her own: not only is she a journalist, but she's also an author and a member of the Board of the Special Olympics, which is a family tradition of sorts - as a matter of fact, the founder of this important sports institution was Patrick's grandmother, Eunice Kennedy Shriver.
It's no shock that Miley was really nervous about meeting her beau's mom: when you enter the Kennedy family, it's kind of a big deal!
While the Miley Cyrus and Patrick Schwarzenegger romance has just hit the mainstream media for the first time this week, it's not the first time that the Governator's son makes the gossip columns over his involvement with a blonde pop star: back in 2012, Patrick had a thing with "1989" star Taylor Swift!
Long before Miley Cyrus and Patrick Schwarzenegger were a thing, as she was in the midst of her on-again-off-again relationship with "The Hunger Games" Aussie hunk Liam Hemsworth, Patrick Schwarzenegger was going about with Taylor Swift ... as she dated his cousin, Conor Kennedy!
According to Perez Hilton at the time, it seems that Taylor went with Conor to a Kennedy family event, where she ended up being despised by the entire politically active clan: while she arrived with Conor, she still had no problem making out with Patrick as well, while all the family was around!
Of course, if those rumors are true, it's still something that happened over two years ago, and surely everyone has moved on ever since - and it's time for Miley Cyrus and Patrick Schwarzenegger to have a chance!
It is unclear whether Miley has met the rest of the Kennedy clan (or even father in-law, "The Terminator" himself), but it still seems like the young couple is very much in love. We might be seeing them hitting the red carpet together soon!
