"The detail that I can share is that for us, our privacy and us kind of keeping it small has been something that I've been astounded that I've actually been able to have and being able to have more choice," she told People.

"I think it's also being older, being more protective of what I'm open to sharing," she added.

Cyrus and Morando have been together for four years, and first met through a blind date.
