The shocking split between Billy Ray Cyrus and Firerose keeps getting crazier. Allegedly, Firerose secretly recorded an enraged Billy Ray saying nasty things about his family members and his second wife, Tish. Now, sources claim that the real truth about Billy Ray has been exposed.
That leaked audio of Billy Ray exploding at Firerose, his decades-younger, soon-to-be third ex-wife, is making their messy divorce even more twisted. An exclusive source revealed some unbelievable details to Us Weekly. Shockingly, this source alleged that Billy Ray is continuing to “spin his story” to villainize Firerose.

Us Weekly reported they “obtained a clip” of the expletive-ridden audio on “Wednesday, July 24th.” After Billy Ray ranted at Firerose that he was “really f–king pissed” at her and how she “will not f–king listen,” his words took an unbelievable turn.
Billy Ray’s Rage Spared None of His Family Members
Us Weekly alleged that Billy Ray began “referring to himself in the third person.” Then, he “seemingly” started “talking about his children.” What Billy Ray allegedly said is despicable enough, and if he’s really talking about his family, it’s unforgivable.
He mentioned “the other two children” in his marriage to Tish. Us Weekly believes that Billy Ray was talking about Tish’s kids, Brandi and Trace. While Billy Ray did legally adopt them, what he says in that leaked audio is insane.
Allegedly, Billy Ray called Brandi and Trace the “sh-t that was there” before “she” met Billy Ray. Us Weekly claimed that “she” is Tish. Billy Ray ranted that Tish had her kids “by two separate fathers… before she met Billy Ray.”
While that sounds heartless and cruel, it gets worse. Us Weekly alleged that Billy Ray started rambling, “Everyone knows the devil’s a sk-nk.”
Whether or not that’s the real truth, Us Weekly admitted that they didn’t know for sure who Billy Ray meant by “devil’s a sk-nk.” They wrote that it could be 31-year-old Miley or 57-year-old Tish.
Miley Sided with Her Mother
Allegedly, Billy Ray has also thrown the worst shade at Tish in texts. Shockingly, Page Six reported that Billy Ray’s nasty texts about Tish were leaked recently.
Page Six claimed to have “obtained” alleged text messages that Billy Ray sent to “his manager.” They reported that Billy Ray’s words sounded “heated,” and he called Tish a “liar,” a “cheat,” and even a “wh-re.”
But Billy Ray wasn’t nearly done throwing shade. Page Six alleged that he described Tish as a “complete sk-nk” and the “scum of the earth.” He then called her “a fraud,” and Billy Ray claimed that Tish makes Lindsay Lohan’s mother “look like Mother Teresa.”
According to Page Six, Miley is showing “allegiance to her mother” with posts on Instagram and X from a “Gucci photo shoot,” where Miley was photographed “sweetly embracing Tish.”
Page Six also reported how bad it is between Miley and Billy Ray. They wrote that Miley “has been estranged from her dad for some time.” When Miley won her first Grammy for Record of the Year in February 2024, she “noticeably excluded” Billy Ray in her acceptance speech.
Billy Ray Was Allegedly Slamming Miley in the Recording
On July 24th, the Daily Mail also claimed to have an “exclusive” on Billy Ray’s “expletive-filled tirade.” According to the Daily Mail, it was Miley who Billy Ray was “slamming” in the audio secretly recorded by Firerose.
Daily Mail said they’d listened to the disturbing audio, and they described the bizarre way that Billy Ray talked about “himself in the third person.” They added that Billy Ray turned “his attention to his daughter, Miley.” They alleged that Billy Ray uttered “the shocking statement: ‘Everyone knows that devil’s a sk-nk.”

It’s twisted how Firerose seemed to be the guilty party in this public breakup after Billy Ray filed for divorce on May 23rd. Today.com reported in May that Billy Ray had filed for divorce after just “seven months of marriage,” and he made shocking allegations in his court filing.
Billy Ray alleged that Firerose had been “verbally, emotionally, and physically abusive.” Billy Ray also claimed that his manager, Scott Adkins, had “witnessed” what Firerose did to him.
Firerose Alleged that Billy Ray Harmed Her
But that leaked audio is making everyone wonder if Firerose is more like a victim of Billy Ray. On July 26th, Us Weekly reported that Firerose released a personal statement on social media.
Firerose posted an Instagram Story, writing in part, “This week has been monumental in many ways.” She mentioned the ways she’s “healing” from Billy Ray’s alleged narcissism and worse.
Before she secretly recorded that explosive audio, Firerose had alleged that Billy Ray was harming her verbally. According to a Page Six report, Firerose claimed that Billy Ray’s “rage” included shouting at her “at the top of his lungs” and calling her a “stupid dumb f–king b-tch” and a “crazy wh-re.”
In another Page Six report, they wrote that Miley had appeared on David Letterman’s streaming show, “My Next Guest Needs No Introduction.” During their interview, Miley also alleged that Billy Ray was a narcissist, and she “inherited the narcissism” from him.
Billy Ray Accused Firerose of Misusing His Credit Cards
In another shocking twist, Billy Ray has acknowledged that he was “vocal, frustrated, and angry” with Firerose on the leaked audio from May 2024. However, recent court documents show that Billy Ray is accusing Firerose of verbally and physically attacking him.
In a court affidavit, Billy Ray’s manager, Scott, alleged that he “personally witnessed” Firerose speaking “disrespectfully and acting out of control” with Billy Ray. Scott also alleged that Billy Ray told him, “Scott, she is hitting me again.”
Firerose has countered Billy Ray’s allegations with claims that she felt “unsafe” living under his roof in Nashville. Firerose claimed that she’s had to get emergency “psychological treatment” from a therapist “on more than one occasion.” She referred to life with Billy Ray as “sheer toxicity.”
Billy Ray also alleged that Firerose had used his credit cards when she wasn’t authorized to. He accused her of spending almost $100,000 in “fraudulent charges” on his American Express card. On this account, Billy Ray has scored a win.
The Daily Mail reported on June 14th that Billy Ray had requested a “temporary restraining order” from the court to stop Firerose “from having any more access to his bank accounts and credit cards.” In a follow-up report, Daily Mail confirmed that Billy Ray “won an injunction” preventing Firerose from “continuing to use them.”
Billy Ray Called Firerose His Soulmate
According to the Daily Mail, Billy Ray’s “strained” relationship with Miley hit its lowest point after he married Firerose in 2022, “just four months after Tish filed for divorce.” However, the real truth was that Billy Ray became friends with Firerose while he was still married to Tish. Daily Mail reported that Billy Ray “first met Firerose in 2010,” and the circumstances were twisted.
Billy Ray was 48 when he met Firerose, born in Sydney, Australia, under her real name, Johanna Scholem. Firerose was just 22 years old when she met Billy Ray. Allegedly, they bumped into each other outside the studio where Miley was starring in the Disney Channel hit Hannah Montana.
Daily Mail wrote that Billy Ray and Firerose “became friends,” and “nothing happened romantically” until Billy Ray “reached out” to Firerose “a decade later.” But could there be another, more shocking side to this story?
Billy Ray reached out to ask Firerose to “duet with him” on an updated version of the classic Tanya Tucker hit “Delta Dawn.” As the Daily Mail reported, Billy Ray “was still married to Tish,” but you won’t believe what he allegedly told Firerose. According to the Daily Mail, Billy Ray “told Firerose they were ‘soulmates,” and he “promised her a romance for the ages.”
Firerose agreed to be Billy Ray’s wife, and they married in October 2023. Now that they’re divorcing, the Daily Mail wrote that it’s become “an increasingly bitter legal battle.”
Billy Ray Kicked Firerose Out of Their House
There’s another side to this story. If it’s true, it makes Billy Ray sound even more heartless.
Daily Mail wrote that they obtained documents showing that Firerose agreed to move out of Billy Ray’s house after he filed for divorce. But she claims he “kicked her out of the marital home” at the worst time.
Firerose alleges he kicked her out on May 23, 2024. Daily Mail claimed that it was “one day before she was due to undergo a preventative double mastectomy” because Firerose has a gene that places her “at high risk of developing certain forms of cancer.” The Daily Mail confirmed that Firerose has “since postponed her surgery indefinitely.”
