The Cyrus family has never been short on drama, but this latest chapter feels different. It cuts closer. It feels heavier. And it has sparked a wave of whispers across Hollywood and social media.

After nearly thirty years together, Billy Ray and Tish Cyrus divorced, sending the family into two emotional camps. Billy Ray moved on quickly, even marrying a much younger woman he first met on the Hannah Montana set. But the real shock came from Tish’s side—when she wed Australian actor Dominic Purcell in August 2023 at Miley’s Malibu home.

People noticed something strange that day.
Two empty seats.
No Noah. No Braison.

Then came the turning point:
Sources claimed Noah had once been romantically involved with Dominic before her mother married him.
One insider said, “Noah was seeing Dominic when Tish started pursuing him… and Tish knew.”

Fans pieced together their own clues—Noah posting pictures with Braison instead of attending the wedding, wearing a Billy Ray Cyrus T-shirt on the same day, and sharing quiet messages that felt like coded heartbreak. Reports even suggested Noah was “distraught” and that her mother never gave her a chance to talk things through before the wedding.

Tish and Dominic have reportedly sought therapy to help them navigate the fallout. And despite the tension, Noah did post a simple “Happy Birthday Mom,” hinting the door may not be fully closed.

So where does Miley stand?

A source says she was blindsided.
“Miley had no idea,” they shared. “She thinks it’s a strange situation, but she loves her mom and wants her to be happy.”

Sometimes families break. Sometimes they bend.
And sometimes, they keep trying—quietly, painfully, and with hope.
