Billy Ray Cyrus and his new wife, Firerose, got married not long ago. The official start of their union was in 2022, and it ended with a small, private ceremony.
Billy Ray Cyrus and Tish Cyrus made the choice to get a divorce for the third time after being married for 28 years. They told everyone about this in April 2022.
Once the divorce was over, Billy Ray Cyrus started dating an Australian artist named Firerose. In November 2022, they chose to tell everyone that they were engaged.
Back in 2013, when Firerose was trying out for a part on Hannah Montana, the two of them had already become friends. The singer from the country remembered their first meeting very clearly.
He thought back and said, “There were a couple of old pine trees on the lot that reminded me of Tennessee. Tex, my dog, and I would go out there in the middle of the day, and he’d do his thing. We’d stretch, and I’d think about how much I missed Tennessee. On that particular day, Firerose emerged from the front door. There was almost a moment of, I don’t know, recognition. I thought, ‘This girl’s a star.’”
He continued, “She mentioned she had an audition, and I said, ‘Well, I’m sure you got the job.’”
Firerose didn’t get the part in the end, but Cyrus put her in touch with some directors.
“I just thought, well, the casting agents, the producers, the writers, they’re all on the floor of where we do Hannah Montana. And I actually said to her, ‘Don’t ever take a strange man up on this offer, but, in this case, Tex will testify that you will be totally safe,’” he said.
“‘I’m going to introduce you to a producer, and you can kind of make yourself at home and watch us rehearse and, you know, maybe it might lead to a role or just another contact at Disney.’ And, so, off me and her and Tex went back to the studio. And I think she met a lot of the cast and met the producers, writers. And, in some ways, well, in a lot of ways, we became friends,” the crooner shared.
Before Cyrus asked Firerose to be more than friends after his split at the start of last year, they were just friends. In August 2022, not long after Cyrus proposed, she moved in with him.
“Billy looked at me and said, ‘Do you, do you wanna marry me?’ And I was just like, ‘Of course I do. I love you,’” Firerose recalled the moment. “He said, ‘I love you. I wanna make this official. I wanna be with you forever.’”
A few months after his ex-wife Tish got married again, Billy Ray married Firerose. Firerose got married to “Prison Break” star Dominic Purcell in August 2023.
Brandi, 36, and Trace, 34, were there. They are Tish’s children from earlier relationships, and they were happy to take pictures with Purcell and two of his four kids.
Billy Ray and Tish had Brandi and Trace when they were married. Miley Cyrus, Braison, and Noah were all there to cheer on the couple.
Notably, Noah and Braison did not go to the wedding of their mother. Instead, they posted pictures of their trip to Walmart on social media. Noah was wearing a Billy Ray t-shirt.
It’s still not clear if Cyrus’s children were at his wedding to Firerose.
Some fans couldn’t help but notice one thing about the couple’s social media posts from their wedding day: Billy Ray Cyrus’ hair! “Could he not have at least combed his hair for the occasion?” asked one person. “He couldn’t find a comb?!” asked someone else. “All that money and no hairbrush?!” joked someone else.
A lot of people were interested in Billy Ray Cyrus’s haircut and why he chose it.
