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.
Read on to find out some specifics that people have been talking about.
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.
