Miley Cyrus says that the family dispute prevented them from speaking for years

The family of Miley Cyrus It is finally rebuilding ties after a long dispute.

The “Wrecking Ball” singer, 32, spoke about the “dark decade” of her family and her path to healing during her appearance in the podcast “Reclaiming” of Monica Lewinsky On Tuesday, January 10. Miley shared that “half (of their family members) did not talk to each other at one time” after the separation of their father Billy Ray Cyrus of his mother Tish cyrus In 2022.

“We fixed all that. A large part of my year this year was to gather my whole family, restoring all those lines of communication,” he added, explaining that I had “a lot of loyalty” to Tish, 58, “in the way families do when parents divorce.”

Tish requested Billy Ray’s divorce in April 2022 after 28 years of marriage. In addition to Miley, the couple shares their son Braison31, and her daughter Noah25 years. Billy Ray is also the father of Cody33, of his relationship with his ex Kristin Luckeyand adopted the two oldest children of Tish, the daughter Brandi38, and the son Trace36 years old, after his wedding in 1993.

Before Tish’s divorce application in 2022, Billy Ray had requested divorce in October 2010, but canceled the process the following year to work in their marriage. The former partner separated again when Tish requested divorce in June 2013, but they reconciled and canceled the divorce for the second time the following month.

After his divorce, Tish passed the page with Dominic Purcell In 2023, and another level of family drama emerged when a source told Us Weekly That Noah, 25, had been dating the actor, 55, first. Both Noah and Braison, 31, were remarkably absent at Tish’s wedding with Dominic, but mother and daughter then gathered and apparently left the dispute behind.

Miley admitted that, by witnessing the intermittent relationship of his parents and leaving his family’s drama without touching for years, “he observed what happens when you do not fix things while they are happening. They really accumulate, and suddenly say, ‘Oh my God, 10 years have passed, and this is a mess that just know where to start. This is basically emotional accumulation.’

To help repair the differences of his family, Miley said that “he crossed the battery that had accumulated and simply (he said), I am here, you are here, let’s start having a good time together, and then, as we begin to bring some happiness and joy to the life of the other, we will be in a better place to have these conversations. ‘”

However, when asked if his family had gone through some therapy, Miley said, “We are so messy, that we didn’t even do any of that.”

The Grammy winner said it was “easier” to raise a “white flag” and show that she was open and ready to speak.

Miley, whose ninth album, Subject Beautifulhe was released on May 30, he insinuated that he plans to sing about his family’s dispute on an next album he is already working on. He revealed that a song, “Secrets”, will try to want Billy Ray “to feel safe enough to tell him the things that were condemned and harmful to the family.”

During the episode of May 31 of the “The Interview” podcast The New York TimesMiley confirmed that she and her father are no longer distanced and reflected on how both parents continued their lives after their divorce. (Billy Ray debuted his romance with Elizabeth Hurley In Easter.)

“I think the moment is everything,” said Miley. “Now that my mother is so in love with my stepfather, whom I adore completely, and now that my dad, I see him finding happiness too, I can love them both as individuals instead of how a parental couple. I am being an adult about this.”

He continued, “at the beginning it is difficult, because the child in you reacts before the adult can say, ‘Yes, that is your dad, but that is just another person who deserves to be in his joy and be happy.’ ‘ My childhood has updated. “
