A family torn apart, sibling rivalry and a mom accused of stealing her daughter’s boyfriend – it sounds like a delightfully trashy telenovela. But for the Cyrus clan – singer Billy Ray (62), his ex-wife Tish (56) and their daughters Miley (31) and Noah (25) – it’s just the harsh reality of their life.
They’ve had their share of ups and downs over the past few years but the damage the bitter family feud has wreaked was evident at this year’s Grammy Awards when Miley accepted her trophy for best pop solo performance and pointedly excluded dad Billy Ray in her thank-you speech.
Not long after came another shocker – claims that Tish “stole” her now-husband, Prison Break star Dominic Purcell, from Noah, who’d been dating him first.
