Billy Ray Cyrus is making headlines for all the wrong reasons after being caught in a bitter tirade against his estranged wife Firerose and ex-wife Tish Cyrus.
The bombshell leaked audio, which surfaced last month, reveals the 62-year-old country star’s harsh words, leaving fans and loved ones deeply concerned.
On the recording, Cyrus can be heard calling Firerose, 35, derogatory names, including “an idiot” and “a selfish f***ing b****,” repeatedly telling her to “shut up.”
His anger doesn’t stop there; he also lashes out at his ex-wife, Tish Cyrus, 57, with whom he shares five adult children: Brandi, 37, Trace, 35, Miley, 31, Braison, 30, and Noah, 24. The couple’s 28-year marriage ended in divorce in 2022, but it seems the wounds are far from healed.
During the tirade, Billy Ray refers to Brandi and Trace, who he adopted, as “from a previous marriage.” He quickly corrects himself, saying: “No, wait a minute, I said that wrong. Not a previous marriage. The other two children… She was impregnated by two different men… Everyone knows the devil’s a s***k.”
The bitterness doesn’t end with the tape. Leaked text messages between Billy Ray and his manager reveal more vitriol aimed at Tish. He describes her as “a liar… and a cheat. Complete skank. Scum of the earth. A fraud.” The harsh words have left those close to the Cyrus family deeply worried about the growing toxicity in Billy Ray’s life.
One of the most concerned is Miley Cyrus, who reportedly tried to dissuade her father from marrying Firerose and even refused to attend their wedding in protest. The release of the tape has only deepened the rift between them. An insider shared with RadarOnline: “Miley is saying she never wants to lay eyes on her dad again. The whole family is completely divided; it’s very sad.”
This escalating family drama has caught the attention of country music legend Dolly Parton, who has been a longtime friend of Billy Ray and is Miley’s godmother.
The 78-year-old icon is reportedly heartbroken over the situation. “It breaks Dolly’s heart to see the Cyrus family so at odds; she loves them all,” the insider revealed. “She’s aware of the awful things he’s been caught saying, and it’s shocking and apparent to her and everyone else in Billy Ray’s world that he needs to take some responsibility and stop lashing out and blaming those around him for HIS issues.”
Dolly, who has always been a supportive figure in the Cyrus family, is now urging Billy Ray to confront his demons and seek help. “Anger management seems the first step, but not before a groveling apology to those he’s offended. Billy Ray has a lot of work to do if he’s to get any face time with Dolly again soon, if ever,” the insider added.
The situation has left many of Billy Ray’s friends and family members worried, with some urging him to take immediate action to address his anger and mend the fractured relationships in his life. If he doesn’t, he risks losing the support of those closest to him, including Dolly Parton herself.
