Miley Cyrus had spoken about her relationship with dad Billy Ray Cyrus in the past
Miley Cyrus previously opened up about her bond with her father, Billy Ray Cyrus. Miley appeared on My Next Guest Needs No Introduction season 5 episode 1
and shared her equation with her father. Talking to David Letterman, she said:
"My parents served us and sacrificed so much for us. Anything we dreamed of, they made possible. My dad has great hair, and I got that."
She further joked by saying that she "also inherited the narcissism" from her father. Miley Cyrus further spoke about her father, Billy, and continued:
"He has a relationship and a foot on the ground to the real and to nature, and he always did, even when he was super famous."
She went on to say that Billy had a rougher childhood than she ever faced. Miley Cyrus added that she has lots of "empathy and compassion" for Billy's childhood that shaped him that way he was at the time. Billy, too, has taken to Instagram to appreciate his daughter. In June 2024, he called her a "survivor and true artist" in an Instagram post.
According to Teen Vogue, rumors about Miley and Billy not being on great terms stemmed when the former did not attend Billy's wedding with Firerose in October 2023. The speculations were further fuelled when she did not acknowledge her father during her acceptance speech at the 2024 Grammys.
However, Miley's mother, Tish, was present at the event with Miley Cyrus.
