Captivated by the Kate Middleton mystery, we missed out on a completely different psychodrama.
On this rainy March morning, we discovered, amused, that Tish - Miley Cyrus' mother - married actor Dominic Purcell, whom you may have seen in
Prison Break.
Be careful, read these lines carefully - because the story gets complicated.
In 2022, Tish divorced Billy Ray, the father of Miley Cyrus.
We wouldn't go so far as to say that our world was falling apart, but for us, the Cyruses were a bit like the perfect American family.
In particular Billy Ray and Miley, who played a father and his pop star daughter, so complicit in the series
Hannah Montana

Here we are, immersed in the twists and turns of this obscure family feud.
And we have, without a doubt, opened Pandora's box.
We learn, with wide eyes, that Tish Cyrus is accused of having “stolen” the lover of her daughter Noah, Miley's little sister.
According to the American press, Dominic Purcell, 54, would have first flirted with the 24-year-old young woman.
Then allegedly fell in love with his mother, eight months after the start of his relationship with Noah.
The icing on the cake: Tish Cyrus, 56, was aware of the romance between her daughter and the actor when she started dating him, indicates an anonymous source in
Us Weekly
.

Married at all costs
Certainly, Noah Cyrus and Dominic Purcell were experiencing communication “problems,” anonymous sources whisper.
Granted, they weren't officially a couple.
But we can't help but sympathize with Noah.
She was, it seems, not consulted regarding the romance between her mother and the actor.
She would also have had no say in the marriage of Tish Cyrus and Dominic Purcell, celebrated in August 2023, according to
People
.
Worse still, Noah and his brother Braison would not have been invited to the ceremony.
We discovered, to our shock, that Tish Cyrus even hired a security service to ensure that her daughter did not come and spoil the wedding.
We have known a more delicate process.
The day of this union, Noah, far from being fooled, published an Instagram story in which she appeared in a cafe with her brother, wearing a t-shirt bearing the image of… her father Billy Ray Cyrus.
The message is clear: Noah takes his father's side.
The singer now refuses to communicate with her mother,
Us Weekly
informs us .
The latter would, moreover, not be more open to the idea of “any reconciliation”.
In short, total chaos.
“Strange” situation
And Miley Cyrus in all this, we think?
Did she know?
Did she take sides?
No, a source close to the star
proclaims in
People on March 3.
“She had absolutely no idea.”
The artist nonetheless chose his side.
“She confronted Tish about it,” specifies the anonymous source.
She finds the situation strange, but she loves her mother and wants her to be happy.”
Two days later,
Us Weekly
delivered another version of the facts.
Yes, Miley was well “aware” of this estrangement between her mother and her sister.
She reportedly chose Tish's side and did "everything in her power" to stop Noah from ruining the marriage.
Miley Cyrus would no less be “devastated” to see her clan tearing itself apart.
Tensions between Miley and Billy Ray

Sucked into the Cyrus vortex, we are not at the end of our discoveries.
The more we investigate, the more incredible the story seems to us.
Did we forget to mention it?
In addition to the dissensions between Tish and Noah, Miley Cyrus has simply “cut ties” with her father.
At this point, we must struggle to keep our minds clear.
The name of Dolly Parton, Miley's godmother, is even mentioned in the case.
This would have sought to reconcile the interpreter of
Wrecking Ball
with Billy Ray - without success.
To untangle the threads of this tangle, we need to go back two years.
In 2022, Billy Ray Cyrus files for divorce after 30 years of marriage.
A real earthquake for Tish, who would have had a “nervous breakdown”.
Their five children Brandi, 36, Miley, 31, Noah, 24, Trace, 35, and Braison, 29, are going through a “difficult” time.
But it is above all the union of Billy Ray with the singer Firerose, 34, which would have ignited the powder between Miley and her father.
“Irreparable” tensions
The singer now believes that the damage inflicted on her clan is “irreparable”.
When she won the Grammy Award for best recording of the year in early February, Miley Cyrus sent her thanks to Tish, Brandi and Maxx Morando, her companion.
His speech does not mention Braison, Noah, Billy Ray, or Trace.
We say to ourselves that the myth of the model family is definitely shattered.
Even Dolly Parton's attempt at reconciliation failed.
It would also have caused “a lot of tension” between the latter and Billy Ray.
And if Dolly Parton couldn't do anything, who will be able to pick up the pieces?
A bit melancholy, we decide to turn our attention to the tribulations of the Windsors.
We move from tweet to tweet, stunned by the rumors of a completely different (alleged) divorce: that of Prince William and Kate Middleton.
God Save the Future Queen.
