Billy Ray Cyrus and Miley Cyrus's disagreement is being handled maturely by both parties.
Miley Cyrus recently sat down with The New York Times to discuss her complex relationship with her father, Billy Ray Cyrus. When asked if they were "estranged," the singer simply said "no."
As an adult, Miley has learned to view her parents – particularly her dad – as individuals, instead of just as parents. This shift in perspective was catalyzed by taking on some of her mother's emotional pain from the divorce and seeing her mom find love with Dominic Purcell, and her dad with Elizabeth Hurley.
According to Miley, this newfound maturity in her relationship with her parents has helped her appreciate and accept the changes in their family dynamics. She sees that her parents are indeed happier in their new relationships, allowing her to love them both independently and without bias.
In the past, their bond was strained due to family issues and Billy Ray's sobriety journey. But, now, Miley emphasizes the significance of timing, stating that family has become a priority in her thirties. This renewed closeness was visible after Billy Ray shared a family photo on social media, hinting at a repaired rift between Miley and her father following earlier rumors of a disagreement.
For those unaware, Billy Ray Cyrus and Tish separated in 2022 after a 30-year marriage[4]. They share three children together – Miley, Braison, and Noah – with Billy Ray also adopting Tish's children, Brandi and Trace[3].
Miley Cyrus's relationship with her father, Billy Ray Cyrus, transcends the complexities of family dynamics and extends into their shared love for music and entertainment, often enjoying joint appearances and collaborations with celebrities.
Exploring her parents' lives beyond her own, Miley has come to admire the celebrities her father, Billy Ray, is associated with, demonstrating a growing sense of appreciation for the overlapping worlds of family and entertainment.
