Noah Cyrus is ‘so proud’ of her father Billy Ray Cyrus’ latest single amid their turbulent family drama.
On Saturday, the 25-year-old singer Noah Cyrus took to her Instagram Story to reshare a teaser clip for the newly released track, celebrating the Achy Breaky Heart performer’s ‘incredible’ release, Lost.
‘so proud of my Dads INCREDIBLE new single LOST with my good, old friend @samtinnesz and @tommeeprofitt @billyraycyrus,’ she penned above the video.
The post marks the first time the July vocalist has publicly acknowledged her 63-year-old father after brother Trace Cyrus suggested there was bad blood between he and the latter.
Lost’s release comes nearly three weeks after Billy Ray’s controversial gig at Donald Trump’s inauguration in Washington D.C. that sent tongues wagging.
After the ‘trainwreck’ performance, Trace took to Instagram to pen a shocking response claiming he could barely ‘recognize’ the country star, urging him to seek help.
‘Since my earliest memories all I can remember is being obsessed with you and thinking you were the coolest person ever. I wanted to be just like you. The day you adopted me was the happiest day of my life,’ he began.
‘Sadly the man that I wanted so desperately to be just like I barely recognize now. It seems this world has beaten you down and it’s become obvious to everyone but you,’ he added.
‘Me and the girls have been genuinely worried about you for years but you’ve pushed all of us away,’ he said, referencing sisters Brandi, Miley and Noah.
‘Noah desperately has wanted you to be a part of her life and you haven’t even been there for her. That’s your baby girl. She deserves better.
Somehow just like me she still idolizes you though. We are all hanging on to memories of the man we once knew & hoping for the day he returns,’ the guitarist went on.
Days later, the 35-year-old brother of Miley Cyrus also claimed Billy Ray threatened him with legal action following the public post that painted the Old Town Road singer in a negative light.
In a following post Trace wrote: ‘Dad my message was beyond loving. I could have been extremely honest about a lot more but I don’t want to put your business out there like that. But for you to threaten me with legal action for wanting you to get help is a disgrace.
Referring to his paternal grandfather, he added: ‘Pappy is looking down at you with such disappointment I can assure you. You should be ashamed of yourself.’
‘I will always love you but I no longer respect you as a man. Everyone close to you is terrified to tell you how they really feel. I’m not. Get help,’ he finished.
Trace added, ‘For all of you wondering no I still haven’t heard from my dad. He did contact a family member to let me know he’s taking legal action against me for encouraging him to get help.
‘Dad I live 30 minutes away from your. You could’ve just come & talked to me like a man.’
Billy Ray and Tish Cyrus went their separate ways in 2022 and he quickly remarried. He and Australian singer-songwriter Firerose, 36, born Johanna Rosie Hodges, tied the knot in 2023.
The marriage quickly unraveled amid allegations of turmoil. Court documents filed during their divorce proceedings revealed both parties accusing each other of emotional, verbal and psychological mistreatment.
