Teen star Miley Cyrus is reportedly consulting a lawyer about divorcing her parents.

The ?Hannah Montana? actress, who recently celebrated her sixteenth birthday, is said to be keen to file a Petition of Emancipation in order to gain complete control of her career and financial decisions.

This new development is rumoured to be a result of her unconfirmed romance with 20-year-old male model, Justin Gaston.

A source told The Daily Star: ?Although she?s only 16, she has been forced to mature much more quickly than most girls her age.

?She is dating a 20-year-old and is already a superstar, so she thinks it?s high time she started living like an adult.

?And although she loves her parents, she no longer wants to be treated like a child.?
