Tish Cyrus ‘stole’ husband Dominic Purcell from her estranged daughter, Noah Cyrus, amid a family feud, a source told Us Weekly on Tuesday.
The producer, 56 – who suffered a ‘complete psychological breakdown’ before her divorce from Billy Ray Cyrus – notably tied the knot with the Prison Break actor, 54, last year in August 2023.
However, while some family members such as daughter Miley were present for her wedding to the Australian actor, Noah, 24, and brother Braison were absent from the nuptials – fueling speculation of a rift at the time.
An insider informed the outlet that, ‘Noah was [seeing] Dominic when Tish started pursuing him,’ which Tish ‘was aware’ of when she began to contact the star.
‘The turmoil between Noah and Tish goes far beyond [what people think]. Noah is very distraught over Tish stealing Dominic from her.’

Earlier this month, Tish appeared on the Call Her Daddy podcast and opened up about her relationship with Purcell, including their first date.
She explained that he had initially reached out to her in 2016 on Instagram – which she missed.
‘I had followed him on Instagram and he DMed me and just said, “Hey Tish, just wanted to [say], I think you’re super cool and…you’re doing such a great job with your family.”…I didn’t see it for a year.’
However, later in 2017, Tish’s daughter, Brandi, noticed that Purcell had blocked her account.
‘His ex had seen he hit me up and blocked me from his Instagram. I almost peed my pants because I was like…Why am I blocked? He doesn’t even know I exist, and I’m blocked. We were laughing so hard.’
Years later in 2022, following her split from Billy Ray, Tish reached out to Purcell and he quickly responded back. The pair soon went on a date and the next day, told each other ‘I love you’.
The couple eventually said ‘I do’ in August 2023 – but both her daughter Noah and son Braison were not in attendance. The source told Us Weekly that the All Falls Down songstress actually hadn’t been invited.
The wedding was held at Miley’s lavish Malibu mansion, and the insider claimed that the Grammy winner had guards outside in case Noah did attempt to show up.

However, Noah kept busy on the big day by spending time with her brother, Braison. She took to Instagram to share moments from their day together, including an excursion to Walmart while sporting a Billy Ray Cyrus shirt.
At the time, a separate source informed Us Weekly, ‘It’s no secret neither of them approves of Dominic, and that’s created tension with their mom.’
‘[Noah has] always been close with Billy Ray…It’s caused a rift between her and Miley,’ the insider continued.
Tish and the Achy Breaky Heart singer married in 1993 until she filed for divorce in April 2022 citing ‘irreconcilable differences’ with their date of separation taking place two years earlier.
The pair had ups and downs throughout the relationship, with the singer filing for divorce 2010 – which was dropped. Tish also previously filed in 2013 – but that had also been dropped.
They share children: Miley, Noah, 24, Braison, 29, and also Brandi, 36, and Trace, 34. He adopted Brandi and Trace from Tish’s previous relationship and also shares son Christopher, 31, with his ex, Kristin Luckey.
The rumored family rift also extends to Miley – who notably left her father out of her Grammys acceptance speech earlier this month. The father daughter duo’s relationship reportedly became shaky following his split from Tish.
An insider told Page Six shortly after the Grammys earlier this month that Billy has ‘tried reaching out to Miley many times’ and also ‘congratulated her’ on the Grammy wins.

‘Miley and Billy Ray are on the outs,’ they told the outlet. ‘Miley’s very close with her mom and is standing by her.’
As for the rest of their six children, the insider said that all of ‘kids have chosen sides’ but ‘friends are hoping the rift doesn’t last forever.’
Earlier this month, Tish revealed she had a ‘complete psychological breakdown’ in the wake of her split from Billy Ray.
During a recent interview on Alex Cooper’s Call Her Daddy podcast, the star detailed the end of her marriage to longtime husband amid the COVID-19 pandemic.
‘It was so crazy, my two biggest fears in life were being alone and my mom passing away. And I had one month of a complete psychological breakdown,’ she recalled.
The whole process had sent her entire world into a tailspin as she detailed what an incredibly hard time it was for her.
Tish explained: ‘It was the worst thing, it was not good… Kind of pushed the mom thing under the rug, and then the divorce thing came.
‘I could not eat, I could not sleep, I could not stop crying. I don’t have my mom, and then I don’t have my husband that has been my husband for 30 years. Like I’m scared.’

She also said that she pushed her now ex-husband into doing Hannah Montana with daughter, Miley, so their ‘family could be together.’
In regards to the split and his relationship with his kids following the divorce, Billy Ray told People, ‘Everyone knew that that relationship was over a long time ago. Everybody’s turning the page. It’s been a lot, but everyone knew that it was time for a change.’
Billy has also since moved on following the divorce from Tish, and married Australian singer, Firerose, late last year in October during an ‘ethereal celebration of love.’
The ceremony was held two months after Tish and Dominic said ‘I do’ in August.
In the caption of the joint post with his new wife, Billy sweetly penned, ’10/10/23 will always be the beautiful, joyous day that our two souls united as one in holy matrimony.’
Cyrus expressed, ‘It was the most perfect, ethereal celebration of love we could have ever imagined.’

‘For both of us to hear the preacher say, “Billy Ray and Firerose Cyrus… I now pronounce you husband and wife” that was the sacred moment our new forever began. Long Live Love! ❤️.’
The two notably collaborated on the track called, New Day, which was released in 2021 and the pair also performed the song together on a number of talk shows.
Cyrus and Firerose also worked on the track, Plans, which they sang together on Good Morning America last month in September.
In August 2022, Billy proposed to Firerose, however, he didn’t confirm their engagement until later that same year in November.
