Interviewer Karl Stefanovic jokingly asked Cody ‘what he was thinking’ in dating someone as high-profile as Miley, 28.
‘I’d known her for a long time at that point,’ Cody said, going on to describe the Wrecking Ball star as ‘not like a mentor’ but ‘always a very hyper creative person’.
‘We went from being good friends, to just having a lot of the same friends, to being together for a while,’ he continued.
