Miley<\/b> Cyrus<\/strong><\/a>, 30, is one of the most celebrated names in music, and fans may also be somewhat familiar with her parents, Billy Ray Cyrus<\/strong><\/a>, 61, and Tish Cyrus<\/strong><\/a>, 55. The “Edge of Midnight” singer has grown up in the spotlight under her rock star dad and with her producer\/actress mom, but contrary to many famous families, they’ve seemed to have weathered the storms that often come with that journey. Although Miley has had her share of challenges with her parents, the Cyrus family remains a solid unit<\/a>, with the pop star growing closer with Billy Ray and Tish over the years.<\/p>\n Read more below about Miley’s loving parents Tish and Billy Ray<\/a> and discover more details about their loving family below!<\/p>\n Miley’s mom Tish was born Leticia Jean Finely May 15, 1967 in Nashville, Tennessee. Before marrying Billy Ray, the actress and producer was actually wed to another man, Baxtor Helson<\/strong>, and the two share two children together,\u00a0Trace\u00a0<\/strong>and\u00a0Brandi<\/strong>. When Tish married Billy Ray, he ended up adopting the children as his own.<\/p>\n Before Tish and Billy Ray met, he had a fling with a South Carolina waitress, Kristen Luckey<\/strong>, and she became pregnant. Shortly thereafter, Tish and Billy Ray became smitten and Tish got pregnant with Miley (who was originally named Destiny Hope). Both women were pregnant at the same time which caused some controversy, but Billy Ray ultimately stuck with Tish as his partner. She became pregnant with their second child, Miley’s younger brother Braison Cyrus<\/strong><\/a>, and the two tied the knot in 1993. The couple also welcomed their third child together,\u00a0Noah Cyrus<\/strong><\/a>, in 2000.<\/p>\n Tish and her now ex husband<\/a> have had their fair share of challenges over the years as a couple, both filing for divorce for “irreconcilable differences” once in 2010 and then again in 2013. Ultimately, the couple chose to stay together for the next nine years before their eventual divorce in 2022<\/a>. “I do think that marriage is hard work,” Tish told Bravo<\/a> in 2017. “And I think a lot of people, when you go through struggles and difficult times, that people throw in the towel a little too easy. And I think that any relationship \u2014 whether it’s marriage or family, it doesn’t matter \u2014 it’s you truly do have to take care of it and nurture and really work hard at relationships.”<\/p>\n In 2022, Tish was the one who filed for divorce and cited “irreconcilable differences” and requested the court to split their existing assets. She also confirmed the break-up in. a joint statement with Billy Ray. \u201cIt is after 30 years, five amazing children and a lifetime of memories, we have decided to go our separate ways \u2014 not with sadness, but with love in our hearts,” they said.<\/p>\n “We have grown up together, raised a family we can be so proud of, and it is now time to create our own paths. We will always be family and look forward to a continued and loving shared experience as friends and parents,” the exes went on. “We have not come to this decision lightly or quickly but with so much going on in the world, we wanted to provide some clarity and closure, so we can remain focused on what is important. With Love and Hope\u2026 Tish and Billy Ray Cyrus,” they signed off.<\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n A post shared by Tish Cyrus (@tishcyrus)<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n![\"Miley](\"https:\/\/hollywoodlife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/miley-cyrus-parents-ss-post-11.jpg?resize=620%2C847\")
