Miley Cyrus Clears the Air on Family Rumors in David Letterman Interview
In a revealing and heartfelt interview on David Letterman’s ‘My Next Guest Needs No Introduction,’ Miley Cyrus addressed the swirling rumors about a divide in the Cyrus family. Fans and media alike have speculated about tensions within the family, particularly between Miley and her father, Billy Ray Cyrus, ever since Billy Ray and Tish Cyrus announced their separation in 2022.
Miley, known for her candor and openness, did not shy away from the topic when Letterman broached the subject of her relationship with her father. “I think what is so beautiful is that my parents, they served their children. My parents served us and sacrificed so much for us. Anything we dreamed of, they made possible,” she said, dispelling the notion of any lasting estrangement.
Reflecting on her father’s influence, Miley added, “I’m grateful for being able to watch him ahead of me. He’s almost given me this map. And there’s a map of what to do and what not to do, and he’s guided me on both. … I also inherited the narcissism from my father.” Her words painted a picture of a complex, yet deeply respectful relationship with Billy Ray, acknowledging both the positives and the challenges of having such a public figure as a parent.
While Miley credited her father for shaping her worldview, she was quick to highlight her mother, Tish Cyrus, as her true hero. “My mother Tish was the one who raised me,” Miley stated, underscoring Tish’s pivotal role in her upbringing and everyday life.
Rumors of discord within the Cyrus clan gained traction following the separation of Billy Ray and Tish. The situation was further inflamed when eagle-eyed fans noticed a lack of interaction between family members on social media. The gossip mill went into overdrive earlier this year when Miley noticeably failed to mention her father during her Grammy acceptance speech, fueling speculation of a rift.
Adding to the intrigue, Miley’s sister Noah was romantically linked to Dominic Purcell, who is now Tish Cyrus’s current husband. This twist only deepened public fascination with the family’s dynamics, leading to endless speculation about the nature of their relationships.
Despite the persistent rumors, Miley’s recent comments suggest a family that, while not perfect, remains bound by love and mutual respect. “I’m proud of where I come from, and I’m grateful for all the support and guidance my parents have given me,” she concluded.
