Unsurprisingly, Billy Ray Cyrus’ love language is the art of music.
The country singer-songwriter, who has made headlines in recent months for an alleged feud with his children, praised his daughters Miley and Noah Cyrus in an affectionate Instagram post Tuesday.
Both Miley and Noah have recently announced new music. Noah released “Don’t Put It All on Me,” a collaboration with Grammy-nominated folk band Fleet Foxes, on March 19. Meanwhile, Miley announced on Monday the arrival of her ninth album “Something Beautiful,” which is slated for a May 30 release.
“You are witnessing in real time what it feels like for a Dad who with in less than one weeks time has had his (butt) kicked and his mind blown by not one …but two of his own daughters @mileycyrus @noahcyrus,” Cyrus wrote alongside a side-by-side photo of Miley and Noah.
He added: “Flesh and blood … completely taking their art to a whole new level. Congratulations girls! Well done I’m so damn proud of both of you. I’m actually crying as I write this. Thank God you can’t see me. Have fun now and be happy! 😊Love Dad.”
Miley and Noah have seemingly not responded to Cyrus’ post since its publication.
Cyrus’ social media endorsement comes after his son Trace Cyrus expressed concern for the “Achy Breaky Heart” singer’s well-being in a Jan. 22 Instagram post, writing, “Sadly the man that I wanted so desperately to be just like I barely recognize now.”
“It seems this world has beaten you down and it’s become obvious to everyone but you,” Trace continued. “You may be upset with me for posting this but I really could care less at this point. Me and the girls have been genuinely worried about you for years but you’ve pushed all of us away.”
Days later, Cyrus allegedly threatened Trace with legal action for “encouraging him to get help,” the former Metro Station guitarist claimed in a subsequent post on his Instagram Story.
“You should be ashamed of yourself,” Trace wrote in a since-deleted follow-up post. “I will always love you but I no longer respect you as a man.”
Cyrus shares five children with ex-wife Tish Cyrus, including Trace Cyrus, 36; Brandi Cyrus, 37; Miley Cyrus, 32; Braison Cyrus, 30; and Noah Cyrus, 25. The singer has another son, Christopher Cody Cyrus, with Kristin Luckey.
For her part, Miley has kept mum about a possible rift with Cyrus. When asked if there was an estrangement between the two during a June 2024 interview with David Letterman, the pop star said, “My parents served us and sacrificed so much for us. Anything we dreamed of, they made possible.”
As for Noah, the “July” songstress reportedly showed appreciation for Cyrus in a pair of posts on her Instagram Story in February, per People magazine and E! News. In the first post, dated Feb. 7, Noah said she was “proud” of her father and gave a shoutout to the release of his song “Lost.”
