Billy Ray Cyrus Announces Engagement

American singer Billy Ray Cyrus, father of Miley Cyrus, has revealed his engagement to his girlfriend, Firerose, who is 27 years his junior.

In an interview with People magazine published on November 16th, Billy Ray Cyrus shared that he met the Australian vocalist 12 years ago on the set of a Disney production in Los Angeles. He was immediately impressed and believed she would soon become a star. Subsequently, the two became friends and often exchanged thoughts on music. Firerose frequently sent her compositions to Billy for feedback and advice.

They grew closer during the pandemic. In July 2021, they decided to collaborate on the music video for “New Day.” After Billy’s divorce, Firerose moved to his farm in Tennessee, where they have been living together since. They got engaged in August.

The country music star revealed that before finding his new happiness, he went through a rough patch. He separated from his wife, Tish, in April and his mother, Ruth Ann Casto, passed away a few months ago.

Billy Ray Cyrus, born in 1961, is a renowned American country music singer and actor. He shares three children with television personality Tish Cyrus: Miley, Braison, and Noah. Miley Cyrus followed in her father’s footsteps and made her mark in the entertainment industry. In her early years, Billy always supported his daughter in her projects and served as a solid foundation for her.

Firerose, 34, was born and raised in Sydney, Australia. At the age of 19, she moved to Los Angeles to pursue career opportunities. There, she collaborated with several famous singers but did not make a significant impact in the music industry.
