!.! Miley Cyrus thanked her mother and sister Brandi, but did not mention her father – Billy Ray – and sister Noah when accepting the award for Record of the Year.

Miley, her mother – Tish Cyrus-Purcell – and half-sister Brandi attended the event of the National Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences of the United States on the morning of February 5. In her speech accepting the 2024 Grammy Record of the Year award for the song Flowers , the singer thanked Tish and Brandi.

After the show, the artist once again mentioned Tish and Brandi in a Grammy post on his personal Instagram . According to the Hollywood Reporter , the fact that the singer’s father – Billy Ray Cyrus – was not mentioned shows that there is a conflict between the two.

On social media X , one user wrote: “Fans know her family is divided. I think Billy is the cause of the rift.” Another account commented: “Billy Ray was wrong but it’s sad that their family is divided. I wish there was a way for them to reconcile.”

In April 2022, Billy Ray and Tish Cyrus announced their divorce after two years of separation. In October of that year, the country singer got engaged to Firerose, an Australian musician 27 years his junior. Tish also found love, getting engaged to Prison Break star Dominic Purcell a month later. Fans noticed that Miley and her father unfollowed each other on Instagram.

Meanwhile, Miley and Brandi – who Billy Ray adopted after marrying Tish – attended their mother’s wedding but did not appear at their father’s. Meanwhile, the singer’s two younger siblings – Noah and Braison – attended Billy Ray’s wedding.

Miley told Vogue that she was happy to see her mother find happiness. “I was moved to see my mother radiant and full of love. The two of them shared the sweetest, most genuine love. Since meeting Dominic, my mother has somehow become even more beautiful. Standing next to my mother and handing her hand to Dom is a moment I will cherish for the rest of my life,” the artist said.

Miley Cyrus , 32, is widely known for her role as Hannah Montana in the Disney series of the same name. The artist followed in her father’s footsteps and made many marks in the entertainment industry. In the early years, Billy always followed his daughter in projects and became her strong support.

Miley had a rebellious period and was criticized by many people for her free lifestyle, performance style, and offensive dress. In 2017, the singer publicly used stimulants , causing many controversies that affected her image.

Miley’s love life has also been a topic of public interest as she has dated both men and women. In 2018, she married actor Liam Hemsworth , but divorced after nearly a year of marriage. The song Flowers was speculated to be about Liam Hemsworth due to many details implying that the actor had an affair during their relationship. The singer later got back together with ex-girlfriend Kaitlynn Carter and dated Cody Simpson before falling in love with Maxx Morando.!.!
