Billy Ray Cyrus’ son slammed him for not attending “Mammie’s funeral” five years ago. Trace Cyrus took to his Instagram Stories Tuesday to call out his dad for flying to Italy for a fashion show, instead of going to Los Angeles for his grandma’s funeral “while he was still married to my mom.” “This man is so hungry for fame it’s pathetic,” Trace wrote. Billy Ray was married to Tish Cyrus for almost 30 years, and were still together when Tish’s mother, Loretta Finley, passed away in 2020. Trace claimed that the country singer refused to come “even after his daughter got him a 60k private jet like he demanded,” calling him the “lamest man to ever walk planet earth.” “Honestly embarrassed to ever have considered you my idol,” he added. In a separate post, Trace stated that he was “past the point of even caring if I ever speak to him again.” Billy Ray and Tish got married in 1993 and had three children together: Miley, Brazen, and Noah. He also adopted Tish’s two children, Trace and Brandi, that she shared with ex-husband Baxter Neal Helson. The pair’s divorce was finalized in 2022, Tish claiming that there were “irreconcilable differences” between her and the “Achy Breaky Heart” singer.
