Billy Ray Cyrus’ fiancee Firerose gets the two thumbs up from Dolly Parton. The singer admitted she hasn’t caught up with Billy Ray since he popped the question. Still, she got to hang out with Firerose after the Australian dropped in on the couple during filming in 2022. “[Billy Ray] did my Christmas special, the ‘Mountain Magic Christmas.’ We got a chance to talk a lot and I got to meet his girlfriend. She seemed like a sweet girl,” Parton told Us Weekly. “I love Billy Ray like I love Miley. They’re family. He’s like a brother to me, and she’s like a daughter.”
It’s good that Billy Ray has Parton’s support, at least, because Miley Cyrus isn’t rushing to start a bridal party in the USA anytime soon. E! News reports that the father-daughter relationship has been strained since Miley took her mom Tish Cyrus’ side following her parents’ split. “It’s been hard to connect with him in the last year,” a source said. “She hopes they can eventually work on their relationship.”
The source said Miley “doesn’t have a relationship” with her future stepmom, but “she, of course, hopes he is happy.” The slightly creepy way Billy Ray and Firerose first encountered each other probably doesn’t help. “We actually met 10 years ago on the set of ‘Hannah Montana,'” Firerose told Ryan Seacrest in 2022. “Billy Ray’s been a phenomenal supporter of my music ever since.”
