Billy Ray Cyrus is claiming his estranged wife Firerose tried to stop him from having contact with one of his daughters.
The “Achy Breaky Heart” singer made the claim in a Monday, June 17, amendment to his May divorce filing, though he didn’t clarify which of his daughters he is referring to.
Cyrus shares daughters Miley, 31, and Noah, 24, with ex-wife Tish Cyrus. He is also the adoptive father of Tish’s eldest daughter, Brandi, 37,
“Additionally, since the Plaintiff filed his initial complaint, he discovered that the defendant had been conducting a campaign to isolate the Plaintiff from his family,” reads the amendment obtained by Us Weekly. “He has discovered that the Defendant, unknowingly to Plaintiff, blocked at least one (1) of his daughters from being able to contact him on his phone(s) or electronic devices.”

Cyrus filed his initial complaint to annul his marriage from Firerose, 35, on May 23, citing “inappropriate marital conduct.”

Cyrus’ attorneys, Rose Palermo and Jason Talley of Cheatham Palermo and Garrett, called Firerose’s allegations “confusing” in a statement to Us on Tuesday, June 18, claiming that “she begged Mr. Cyrus to forgive her and take her back only 2 days after he filed his pleadings to dissolve his marriage.”

“If Mr. Cyrus was truly guilty of the allegations that Ms. Hodges alleges in her pleadings, then it is mindboggling to try and explain why she would want to return to live with him. Furthermore, she was pleading with him to give her a chance to explain everything to him,” Cyrus’ attorneys said.
Sorry Hannah Montana fans, Miley and Billy Ray Cyrus don’t appear to have the same tight relationship that they portrayed on screen for years. Billy Ray and ex-wife Tish Cyrus welcomed daughter Miley (born Destiny Hope) in November 1992. While Billy Ray had a career of his own before his association with his daughter — […]
Cyrus’ lawyers shared with Us a handwritten note, allegedly from Firerose to Cyrus, asking him to “work this out” with her, as well as a text message Firerose allegedly sent Cyrus that reads in part, “I don’t want to live without you. Please give me a chance to make this right.”
