Record of the Year Acceptance Speech Leaves Out Billy Ray Cyrus
Miley Cyrus’s acceptance speech for Record of the Year at the recent awards ceremony has sparked speculation of a feud between the pop star and her father, Billy Ray Cyrus. While thanking her team, Columbia Records, her mother, and her sister, Miley notably left out her father. This omission has led fans and social media users to question the state of their relationship.
In her speech, Miley expressed gratitude towards her team and loved ones, including her “main gays.” However, the absence of any mention of her father has raised eyebrows and fueled rumors of a strained relationship between the two music industry figures.
Family Feud Rumors Intensify
The speculation surrounding a potential feud between Miley and Billy Ray Cyrus began after Miley’s mother, Tish’s, wedding to Dominic Purcell in August 2023. Miley’s siblings, Noah and Braison, were noticeably absent from the ceremony. Instead, Noah and Braison spent the day together, posting an Instagram story from an outing to Walmart where Noah wore a Billy Ray shirt.
In contrast, Miley served as her mother’s maid of honor and walked Tish down the aisle during the Malibu nuptials. Miley spoke affectionately about her mother’s happiness and love for her new husband, emphasizing her role in supporting Miley throughout her life.
Months later, Billy Ray Cyrus tied the knot with Firerose, a woman he met years ago while filming “Hannah Montana” alongside Miley. The details of this wedding remain unclear, including whether any of Billy Ray’s children attended the ceremony.
The Complex History of Miley and Billy Ray’s Relationship
The relationship between Miley and Billy Ray Cyrus has had its ups and downs over the years. The couple filed for divorce in 2010 but reconciled a year later. In 2013, Tish filed for divorce again, only to reunite with Billy Ray shortly after. However, their split in 2022 appears to be permanent.
Miley has rarely spoken publicly about her father since the divorce, but she has acknowledged their differing views on fame. Despite any potential tensions, Miley has expressed appreciation for her father’s musical talent and the influence he had on her own singing career.
The recent acceptance speech, which excluded Billy Ray Cyrus, has reignited rumors of a feud between father and daughter. Fans and social media users speculate about the state of their relationship, with some suggesting that Miley’s omission of her father’s name is indicative of a strained connection.
As the speculation continues, only time will tell if Miley and Billy Ray Cyrus can mend their relationship and put these rumors to rest.
