Brody Jenner defends ex Kaitlynn Carter after backlash over Miley Cyrus kiss

Brody Jenner has furiously defended his ex Kaitlynn Carter after she was met with backlash for kissing Miley Cyrus .

The Hills stars Brody and Kaitlynn split recently, and Kaitlynn was pictured getting cosy with old friend Miley after her split from husband Liam Hemsworth was announced.

Brody, the son of Caitlyn Jenner, has now spoken out to defend his ex's actions.

He explained why he and Kaitlynn split after their romantic wedding in Indonesia and why he has no hard feelings about what's been going on.

Sharing a statement on Instagram , he said: "There is far too much negativity being directed at someone who I love and care about very much. I feel the need to set the story straight.

"Kaitlynn and I have been best friends for 6 years, and we continue to be. We, like many others before us and many after us, grew in different directions over the same 6 years.

"Kaitlynn is a wonderful person, beautiful and fun to be with, always a positive force in my life. We decided the best move for both of us was to keep our love for each other strong but move forward separately with our lives.

"I respect Kaitlynn and care deeply about her. She deserves to be able to move forward in her life with respect and happiness."

Kaitlynn liked the post and commented with a love heart.

It's not the first time Brody, 35, has said something about the kiss.

After pictures of the newly-single women kissing in Lake Como emerged, Brody shared a snap of himself stood at the top of a cliff in Malibu with the ocean behind him and said: "Don’t let yesterday take up too much of today."

His Hills co-star Brandon Lee suggested: "Let’s round this scandal out and post a pic of us making out"

Brody jokingly replied: "watch out! Pics of Liam and I holding hands on the beach coming soon"

And it seemed Miley wasn't too pleased about his joke.

She replied: "Go take a nap in your truck and cool off."
