Noah Cyrus on Family Drama—And the One Factor That Puts an End to It

The Cyrus family remains a united team—despite and feud rumors.

Recently, Noah Cyrus openly discussed the ongoing public curiosity about the family disputes that unfolded following the divorce of her parents, Billy Ray Cyrus and Tish Cyrus, in 2022, as well as her sister, Miley Cyrus.

In an interview with People published on August 21st, Noah stated, “I tend to maintain a good distance from any personal or family-related matters. What unites us all, however, is our shared passion for music, which we consider as our top priority.

Beyond this, the Cyrus clan has grown accustomed to living under scrutiny, given Miley, who is now 32 years old, achieved stardom at the tender age of 13 with her role on Hannah Montana. Notably, Noah mentioned that although their family problems are often amplified due to their public platform, it doesn’t imply that their struggles are unique when compared to any other family.

The 25-year-old explained, “Growing up with such openness as the norm didn’t seem unusual to me. It wasn’t until later that I realized we were more like a regular family, dealing with everyday family matters.

As Miley’s big brother Noah, who happens to share the family limelight with my fabulous siblings Brandi Cyrus, 38, Trace Cyrus, 36, Christopher Cyrus, 33, and Braison Cyrus, 31, I feel compelled to clarify. Though our lives may seem like a never-ending tabloid drama, it’s essential to understand that the headlines don’t always capture the heartwarming truth. Beneath the media spotlight, we’re not just a family, but a loving group of individuals who truly care for each other deeply. Our challenges are magnified, yes, but at the end of the day, everybody’s great, and that’s what really matters.

Moreover, the youngest among the Cyrus siblings likewise disclosed that enduring public scrutiny regarding their family isn’t a recent phenomenon for them, but rather an aspect they’ve grown accustomed to handling throughout the years.

She went on to say, “It takes a toll emotionally, yet it neither harms nor affects us physically. It’s crucial to maintain a distance and separation between such experiences and your own self.

Previously this summer, Miley spoke about the rift within her family during an episode of the Reclaiming podcast on June 10th. She admitted that their problems weren’t extraordinary; instead, they mirrored the typical behavior that families exhibit when parents separate. However, because it was leading to “emotional hoarding,” they have since made efforts to mend their relationship.

The artist known as “Jaded” shared with podcast host Monica Lewinsky, “At some point, half of us had fallen out of communication. But this year, a significant part of it was reestablishing the broken connections within my family.

And part of that reconciliation was Miley ending her estrangement with her dad.

The former Hannah Montana star expressed on her Instagram Stories on May 10 that she and her father have faced difficulties throughout the years. Now, with her being in her thirties, she emphasizes that family takes precedence over everything else. She finds comfort in knowing that relationships have been mended, and the passage of time has promoted healing. She expresses gratitude for the good health and loving bond within her family.

Billy Ray Cyrus married Tish Cyrus (née Leticia Finley) on Dec. 28, 2003.

At that point in time, they had already shared a 12-month-old child named Destiny Hope Cyrus, who is more commonly known as Miley Cyrus. Meanwhile, Tish was carrying their son Braison Cyrus, who made his arrival on May 9, 1994.

In those days, they were already nurturing a 12-month-old daughter named Destiny Hope Cyrus, better recognized as Miley Cyrus. Simultaneously, Tish was expecting their son Braison Cyrus, who was born on May 9, 1994.

Approximately seven months prior to Miley’s birth on November 23, 1992, Billy Ray’s former partner, Kristin Luckey, welcomed their son, Christopher Cody Cyrus, into the world on April 8th.

In my role as a dedicated follower, I recall that when the “Achy Breaky Heart” singer tied the knot with Tish, he embraced her family. This included their daughter Brandi Cyrus, born on May 26, 1987, and son Trace Cyrus, born on Feb. 24, 1989. It’s worth noting that these children were biologically fathered by Tish’s former spouse, Baxter Helson.

Tish and Billy Ray’s youngest, daughter Noah Cyrus, was born Jan. 8, 2000.

Between 2006 and 2010, Billy Ray Cyrus portrayed Miley Stewart’s (the teen pop star character on Hannah Montana) father in the Disney Channel sitcom and the 2009 movie adaption of it as well.

Meanwhile, the Cyrus family resided in Nashville, Billy Ray and Miley decided to relocate to Los Angeles to kick off Miley’s individual entertainment journey.

In October 2010, Billy Ray and Tish publicly announced their decision to part ways, but within a year, they had reconciled once more.

In June 2013, they initiated another round of divorce proceedings, yet changed their minds only a few weeks afterward. During this period, they confided in TopMob News that their participation in couples therapy had proven very beneficial to their relationship.

As an ardent fan, I couldn’t help but express my emotions when the news about Billy Ray Cyrus filing for divorce in Nashville after 19 years of marriage with Miley’s mom broke. So, I took it upon myself to reach out on Twitter, hoping to break through the apparent communication barrier between them. I tweeted, “Hey @billyraycyrus, it seems your texts and emails aren’t getting through. Fancy a chat instead?

In 2010, they both acted in the movie “The Last Song” and had an on-again, off-again relationship for about a decade. They eventually got married in December 2018, just a short while after their home in Malibu was destroyed by fire.

Miley reminisced that the choice originated from a spot marked by past pain and an urgent need for swift recovery, during her “Used to Be Young” TikTok series.

But Liam filed for divorce in August 2019 and they finalized the paperwork in January 2020.

According to the source, it was quite straightforward; they developed feelings for each other while young, and their personalities have evolved since then.

Braison and his wife Stella Cyrus welcomed son Bear Chance Cyrus on June 8, 2021. 

Tish filed for divorce fo a third time in April 2022, and this time it stuck.

Furthermore, her petition stating “insurmountable disagreements” highlighted that she and her spouse, who had been married for nearly 30 years, have resided separately since February 2020.

After three decades, five wonderful children, and a lifetime filled with cherished memories, Tish and Billy Ray have chosen to follow separate journeys – not out of sadness, but with love in their hearts. As we’ve matured together, built a family that makes us immensely proud, it is now time for each of us to carve our own paths forward. (People magazine statement)

They mentioned that their choice to part ways permanently wasn’t made casually or hastily. They also emphasized that they would forever remain family, looking forward to future shared experiences as friends and parents filled with love.

Billy Ray discreetly became engaged to the 27-years-younger Australian singer Firerose in August 2022, however, he decided not to reveal the news until November of the same year.

In an interview with People, Firerose shared that her deep affection for music, nurtured during her childhood in Australia, overshadowed other interests. She has been familiar with his music for as long as she can remember.

What started as a friendship turned into more during the darkest days of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Suddenly, the life I’d grown accustomed to as a touring artist seemed like a thing of the past,” Billy Ray explained. “It was a time of immense change. And amidst this, Firerose, who had been such a source of positivity, a true friend. Then, as we started creating music together, it transformed into something more profound, from being musical partners to being soulmates, a love that was pure and happy. A love I hadn’t known could exist.

In late November of 2022, as I learned about my former spouse’s upcoming nuptials, I stepped into a new chapter of my life by making it official on Instagram with the talented actor, Dominic Purcell, known for his role in “Prison Break.

In April 2023, they became engaged, and in August of the same year, they exchanged wedding vows in Malibu during sunset. Miley, Trace, and Brandi were among those who stood with their mother on that special occasion.

Life is ever-changing and uncertain, as demonstrated by this picture capturing a family milestone with my siblings and the bride. I believe it’s crucial to appreciate our history, anticipate what’s to come, and find joy in each fleeting moment, because that’s truly all we can control.

Seeing my mom so joyful and in love leaves me quite emotional,” Miley shared with Vogue before her mother’s wedding. “Dom and my mom have a tender, sincere love that feels almost new, which perfectly suits my mom, who possesses a youthful spirit.

Regarding her father’s upcoming life phase, it was reported by TopMob News in October 2022 that Miley herself expressed a lack of affection for the scenario and does not maintain a relationship with her potential stepsibling.

Her parents’ divorce has made it challenging for her to maintain a close bond with her father, as their communication has been strained over the past year. However, she harbors hope that they will find a way to mend their relationship in the future.

Billy Ray communicated to People magazine in November that there were no lingering bitter feelings within the family regarding his engagement.

He remarked, “Everyone is moving forward; it’s been quite an experience, but everyone understood that it was high time for a transition.

On October 10, 2023, I was privileged to unite my life with Firerose’s, marking a breathtaking and joyful day as our spirits melded into an indivisible bond of marriage.

By the evening of the 2024 Grammy Awards, held on February 4, it seemed that the rift between Miley and her father was still unresolved.

Tish, Brandi, and Maxx Morano (Miley’s boyfriend) were present at the event. All three of them received recognition when Miley Cyrus was awarded Record of the Year.

As Miley concluded her speech, “I don’t think I forgot anyone.”

There haven’t been any confirmed or denied reports that Noah was romantically involved with Dominic before his relationship with her mother. However, in April 2024, the Grammy-nominated singer publicly rebuked an Instagram user who insensitively implied that both Noah and Tish had engaged in intimate activities with the actor.

In a regretful manner, Noah wrote, “I’m truly sorry but could you possibly pretend to swallow the largest swallowable object, for a brief moment? Many thanks.”

By doing this, we maintain the original intent and tone of the message while making it more appropriate and easy to read.

Approximately eight months into their married life, Billy Ray petitioned for the cancellation of their marriage, claiming in legal papers that it was obtained through deception.

He listed May 22, 2024, as their date of separation.

However, Billy Ray amended his plan and filed for divorce, which was settled that August.

As a person who values truth over deception, let me tell you that what I have recently encountered is nothing short of an unbelievable, mind-boggling hoax – the craziest, most insane scam I’ve ever come across in my life. Shockingly, I find myself right at its epicenter, making me not only a curious observer but the primary target of this sordid scheme. It is deeply regrettable that it has unfolded in this manner.

In a heartfelt Instagram post on January 22, 2025, I, your devoted son, expressed my deep-rooted admiration and obsession for you that dates back to my earliest memories. To me, you’ve always been the epitome of coolness, someone I aspired to emulate. The day you welcomed me into our family through adoption was undoubtedly the happiest moment of my life. Regrettably, the person I longed so fervently to become bears little resemblance to the man I see today.

Over the past few years, I’ve found myself deeply concerned about your wellbeing, along with my sisters. However, it seems we’ve struggled to maintain a close connection due to your decision to distance yourself from us.

Noah was especially hurt, according to Trace.

He expressed, “Noah has deeply yearned for you to be a part of her life, yet you haven’t been present when she needed you. That’s your little girl, and she deserves more. Somehow, just like me, she still looks up to you, but unfortunately, we’re all clinging onto memories of the person we once knew and praying for the day he comes back.

In the spirit of transparency as a lifestyle advisor, I must share that recently, my heart goes out to my dear family. On January 26th, 2025, my son Trace, along with Miley, Brandi, and Noah, expressed concern about me-their father, their brother, and their friend. So, in this moment, I’m reaching out to all of you to ask for your prayers. I hold close to my heart each one of them, and of course, their loving mother. Together, we stand strong, even when the waves seem rough.

In March 2025, it appeared that Billy Ray’s relationship with his children was strengthening, as he publicly paid a heartfelt homage to Miley and Noah, recognizing their newest musical accomplishments.

He wrote on Instagram, ‘These two are raising the bar in art to unprecedented heights.’ At that moment, he expressed, ‘I’m bursting with pride for each of you. I can hardly contain my emotions as I type this. God bless you, may you not see my tears.’

In May 2025, Billy Ray uploaded a picture showing him alongside Miley Cyrus, her boyfriend Maxx Morando, and their son Braison Cyrus, which seems to be taken at Billy Ray’s farm in Tennessee. He labeled his Instagram post as “Happy Birthday Braison!!!

A day after, Miley addressed the speculations surrounding the family feud on Instagram, stating that she and her father have encountered difficulties throughout the years.

In her thirties now, Miley emphasized that her family takes top priority over everything else. She finds comfort in the mended relationships and the healing power of time. Grateful for the well-being and affection within her family, she is at peace.
