Miley Cyrus Says She ‘Owned a Lot' of Mom Tish's Pain Throughout Marriage to Billy Ray
Miley Cyrus is opening up about where she stands with her parents, exes Billy Ray and Tish Cyrus, following years of estrangement and alleged drama. 'As I've gotten older, I'm respecting my parents as individuals instead of as parents — because my mom's really loved my dad for her whole life, and I think being married to someone in the music industry and not being a part of it is obviously really hard,' Miley, 32, said on the Saturday, May 31, episode of 'The Interview' podcast from The New York Times. 'I think I took on some of my mom's hurt as my own because it hurt her more than it hurt me as an adult, and so I owned a lot of her pain.' Billy Ray, 63, and Tish, 58, were married from 1993 to 2022, during which they welcomed Miley and her siblings Braison, 30, and Noah, 25. (Billy Ray also adopted Tish's two eldest children from a previous relationship, Brandi and Trace, and is father to son Christopher, whom he shares with Kristin Luckey.) In the years since the 'Achy Breaky Heart' singer and Tish divorced, the family fractured with Miley, in particular, staying closer to her mom. In her Times profile, Miley confirmed that she is no longer estranged from Billy Ray. Miley Cyrus Addresses Relationships With Mom Tish and Dad Billy Ray After Feud Speculation 'I think timing is everything,' Miley said, adding that she is glad both of her parents have moved on. 'Now that my mom is so in love with my stepdad [Dominic Purcell], who I completely adore, and now that my dad, I see him finding happiness, too — I can love them both as individuals instead of as a parental pairing. I'm being an adult about it.' She added, 'At first it's hard, because the little kid in you reacts before the adult in you can go, 'Yes, that's your dad, but that's just another person that deserves to be in his bliss and to be happy.' My child self has caught up.' Tish married Purcell, 55, in an intimate 2023 ceremony held at Miley's Malibu, California, mansion. Billy Ray, meanwhile, confirmed two years later that he is dating actress Elizabeth Hurley. 'I just try to be more compassionate to my parents, because I hate that for them,' Miley told The Times, referring to the constant attention surrounding Tish and Billy Ray's respective relationships. 'I mostly hate it for my siblings because they didn't choose that kind of highlight on themselves. But for me, I've gotten so used to it that I'm like, 'If this is the symptom — that sometimes we deal with these embarrassing or difficult public opinions — then that's something I'm willing to take to have the life that we have.'' The Something Beautiful singer is also working on her independence. Miley Cyrus Explains How Dad Billy Ray Cyrus' Relationship to Success Is 'Wildly Different' to Hers 'My mom no longer travels with me, because I'm [nearly] 33 years old, and it was getting ridiculous. I never want to detach from my mom because we're so close,' Miley quipped to the outlet. 'I'll get tears in my eyes even talking about her. But if nature plays its course in the way that it does, I will be an individual without my mom at some point, and that used to completely paralyze me.' According to Miley, she now 'mothers' herself in a way that Tish did when she was growing up. 'I don't have my mom with me the way that I used to,' Miley said. 'And now I just go, 'What was it about her that made everything better?' It was safety because I knew any situation that I didn't feel safe in, my mom would get me out of it or make it better. And so now I just imagine what soothed me about her, and then I do it for myself.' Miley and Dad Billy Ray Cyrus' Ups and Downs Over the Years: From 'Hannah Montana' to Now Overall, Miley has found that her fame — eclipsing Billy Ray's own success — 'added a level of complexity' to her family's dynamics. 'I think it would be hard for anybody with a dream to see somebody else achieving theirs in a way that you see for yourself, but I do think love conquered all,' she said. "He can still find the pride in me. But it would be delusional for any of us to think that that doesn't add a level of complication to our already complicated dynamic.' Miley further noted that she 'got rid' of any lingering guilt or shame during EMDR therapy. 'At times in my life, guilt and shame were a driver for me,' the former Disney Channel star recalled. 'I had a hard time accepting that I could suffer because of how blessed I am. I don't think that's actually played too much of a part between me and my dad, though, because I have to have the faith that, like any dad, he would want this for me.'

Guess who! Aussie actor looks unrecognisable as he steps out for VERY famous pop star step-daughter's New York premiere
An Australian actor looked completely unrecognisable as he stepped out for a New York premiere for his very famous pop star step-daughter. The 55-year old looked worlds away from his trademark clean cut look as he was spotted arriving at New York's Beacon Hotel on Saturday. He recently tied the knot with the world-famous American pop star's mother, with their union making headlines at the time. Away from his romantic life, he also got his start on Australian screens with a brief stint as a policeman on long running soap Home And Away. After turns in such shows as Raw FM, Heartbreak High, and Water Rats, he headed stateside where he landed one of his best known roles in a top prison drama. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. He appeared in five seasons of the popular Fox series and picked up the international award for best actor for the role at the 2007 AACTA awards. But do you recognise who this Australian actor is? It's none other than Dominic Purcell, who stepped out to support step-daughter Miley Cyrus at the premiere of her visual album Something Beautiful on day three of the Tribeca Film Festival. Dominic's new look was a far cry from his Prison Break days, with the actor sporting a neatly trimmed salt and pepper beard. His trademark buzzcut had also been swapped for a neatly cropped 'do' that suited the actor to a tee. He cut quite the stylish figure in a dark grey Western-tinged jacket that featured leather embellishments on the collar, shoulders and pockets. He wore this over a black V-neck T-shirt that clung to his chiselled frame. Dominic finished his red carpet look with a pair of plain black jeans and a pair of very well-worn black leather boots. Dominic arrived with wife Tish Cyrus, 58, who cut a very stylish figure in a form-fitting sequined off-the-shoulder jumpsuit. Miley, meanwhile was the epitome of glamour, arriving in a dazzling gold gown with boyfriend Maxx Morando on her arm. Her strapless, embellished gown perfectly hugged her curves, with the star adding to the glam with her showstopping locks, which were styled in voluminous waves. The couple looked happier than ever as they held each other close while walking through the crowds. Dominic also recently posted a black and white snap of himself to Instagram. Fans branded the star as 'unrecognisable' as he was sporting a long, white beard and moustache. His new look appears to be more recent, as the actor was still clean-shaven at his 2023 wedding. Prison Break viewers were quick to rush to the comment section to discuss his drastic change in appearance. OMG! Santa Claus is in the house,' one fan joked. 'For a second, I didn't recognise you,' another commented, while a third wrote, 'Bro, you are unrecognisable.' 'He looks like a different man. Still [fire],'yet another shared. Dominic tied the knot with Tish Cyrus back in 2023, in a romantic ceremony following her divorce from her husband of 28 years Billy Ray. While some family members such as daughter Miley were present for the August wedding, Tish's kids Noah and Braison were absent from the nuptials - fuelling speculation of a rift at the time. According to a insider, Noah's absence at the wedding was not by choice, but the result of Tish failing to invite her. Us Weekly then published a report claiming Tish, had 'stolen' Dominic from Noah, 24, who was said to be 'seeing' the actor when her mother began to pursue him. 'Noah has always craved the attention because she did not get it growing up. Tish was always so Miley-sided because that is where the money was,' the source claimed. 'Miley and Tish are like sisters and Noah has always been envious of this because she's never had a connection with Tish like Miley has.' However, it was then claimed that Noah 'never dated' Dominic and she was accused by family insiders of 'fabricating' the relationship to 'paint herself as the victim' in her ongoing feud with Tish.

Miley Cyrus oozes glamour in a dazzling gold dress as she and boyfriend Maxx Morando step out after the premiere of her visual album Something Beautiful
Miley Cyrus was the epitome of glamour on Friday night as she and boyfriend Maxx Morando stepped out following the premiere of her visual album at Hotel Beacon in New York City. The singer, 32, ensured she dressed to impress in a dazzling gold gown during the evening which saw her debut her latest offering, Something Beautiful, on day three of the Tribeca Film Festival. Miley's strapless, embellished gown perfectly hugged her curves, with the star adding to the glam with her showstopping locks, which were styled in voluminous waves. The Flowers hitmaker, who finished of her look with a black clutch bag and pointed gold shoes, beamed as she held hands with her dapper musician partner, 26. Miley began dating Liily drummer Maxx in 2021, with Max being one of the eight producers credited on her new album. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new Showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop The couple looked happier than ever as they held each other close while walking through the crowds. The pair were joined by Miley's mother Tish Cyrus, 58, and her actor husband Dominic Purcell, 55, for the evening. The outing comes after Miley revealed where she currently stands with her ex-boyfriend, Nick Jonas, after they dated as teenagers. The Wrecking Ball singer reminisced on the time she briefly dated the Jonas Brothers member, 32, when they were both Disney stars and opened up about their current relationship. During an appearance on the Every Single Album podcast, Cyrus said that there's no bad blood between them despite their bad breakup, which she went on to describe in detail. 'I like Nick,' she said during Thursday's podcast episode. 'I'm into him.' She also gushed about his marriage to Priyanka Chopra and the couple's three-year-old daughter Malti. 'He's married with children. We're all moving on. Everything is good in the world,' she said on the podcast. Then, she jokingly added, 'Niley for life,' as she referenced their past couple name. Nearly two decades ago, Cyrus and Jonas dated from 2006 to 2007 before briefly reconnecting in 2009. The Hannah Montana alum's songs, 7 Things and Before the Storm, are rumored to be about her relationship with him. Her confession comes just shortly after she seemingly shaded her ex-husband Liam Hemsworth with a snarky, sly move. During a meet and greet with one lucky fan, the Hannah Montana star subtly took a shot at her former spouse, 35, as she signed a copy of her new album. The fan, who shared the same first name as Hemsworth, shared proof of the snarky move on X (formerly Twitter). While autographing her latest record, Something Beautiful, she cheekily addressed it to: 'The Best Liam.' The compliment clearly made her fan's day as he shared a photo of himself with the Wrecking Ball singer with the caption: 'me when I'm "The Best Liam."' Cyrus' declaration that her fan is "The Best Liam" comes after a decade-long romance with Hemsworth, who she met when they both starred in the 2010 film The Last Song. The former couple secretly wed in December 2018, but split less than a year after walking down the aisle. Hemsworth filed for divorce citing 'irreconcilable differences' as the cause of the split. Their divorce was finalized in January 2020. Miley has been dating drummer Maxx since 2021 while Liam has been with model Gabriella Brooks since late 2019.

Miley Cyrus speaks out about dad Billy Ray's romance with Elizabeth Hurley
Miley Cyrus is sharing her thoughts on her dad, Billy Ray Cyrus' new relationship and reflecting on how their own bond has evolved. In a new interview with The New York Times published Saturday, the Grammy winner spoke candidly about Billy Ray's romance with actress Elizabeth Hurley, as well as her mom Tish Cyrus' marriage to actor Dominic Purcell. "Now that my mom is so in love with my stepdad, who I completely adore, and now that my dad, I see him finding happiness, too -- I can love them both as individuals instead of as a parental pairing," Miley told the outlet. "I'm being an adult about it." She continued, "At first it's hard, because the little kid in you reacts before the adult in you can go, 'Yes, that's your dad, but that's just another person that deserves to be in his bliss and to be happy.' My child self has caught up." Billy Ray and Tish Cyrus, who tied the knot in 1993, divorced in 2022 after nearly 30 years of marriage. They share three children -- Miley, Braison, and Noah -- and Billy Ray also adopted Tish's two older children, Brandi and Trace. Miley Cyrus reveals rare medical condition behind her 'unique' voice Billy Ray went public with his relationship with Hurley on Easter Sunday. Their debut as a couple came just months after he finalized his divorce from his second wife, Firerose, in August 2024, according to People. In her New York Times interview, Miley also addressed longstanding speculation about her relationship with her father. When asked if they were estranged, she simply replied, "No." "I think timing is everything," she explained. "As I've gotten older, I'm respecting my parents as individuals instead of as parents -- because my mom really loved my dad for her whole life, and I think being married to someone in the music industry and not being a part of it is obviously really hard. And so I think I took on some of my mom's hurt as my own because it hurt her more than it hurt me as an adult, and so I owned a lot of her pain." Her comments followed a rare family photo that Billy Ray shared earlier this month, showing the family reunited to celebrate Braison's 31st birthday -- a moment that came after months of rumors about a rift between the father and daughter. Miley also directly addressed those rumors in a statement shared to her Instagram stories on May 10. "My dad and I have had our challenges over the years," she wrote at the time, per E! News. "Now, in my thirties, family is my priority above all else. I'm at peace knowing bridges have been built and time has done a lot of healing. Grateful for the good health and love that flows through my family." Billy Ray echoed those sentiments in his own Mother's Day post on Instagram, praising his daughter and the progress they've made. "I'm so proud of Miley and her guts and her courage... her wisdom and strength to bring it when our family needed it most," he wrote. "We are so close to a full healing."
