Billy Ray Cyrus has recently made headlines with claims that his estranged wife, Firerose, pleaded for reconciliation just days after he filed for divorce. The country singer shared a handwritten love note allegedly penned by Firerose, in which she expressed her deep regret and desire to mend their relationship. This revelation comes amid Firerose’s accusations of “extreme verbal, emotional, and psychological abuse” against Cyrus in her recent court filings.
The love note, exclusively obtained by Page Six, reads, “I miss you more than I can possibly explain in words Baby. Please let’s work this out and not become anything but closer out of this hellish experience. I need you. I love you. I am so sorry.” This heartfelt plea from Firerose stands in stark contrast to her allegations of abuse, raising questions about the true nature of their tumultuous relationship.
In addition to the love note, Page Six also obtained a lengthy text message Firerose allegedly sent to Cyrus after their split. The message reads, “I’m praying with my entire soul that we can find each other again today. I feel completely lost & miss you more than I can explain. You have been my best friend in the world every day for over 4 years. 24/7. I miss you terribly. My heart is shattered & I need my best friend right now more than ever.”
Cyrus, 62, filed for divorce from Firerose, 36, in May, citing irreconcilable differences and inappropriate marital conduct. He also sought an annulment on the grounds of fraud. In an amendment to his original divorce filing, Cyrus elaborated on why he believes their marriage was fraudulent. He accused Firerose of lying about her previous marital status and using her ex-husband’s last name, “Hodges,” instead of her father’s. Cyrus argued that Firerose “knowingly, willfully, and intentionally committed fraud” to obtain his famous last name, which she still uses on Instagram as Firerose Cyrus.
Cyrus further claimed that if he had known the truth about Firerose’s past, he would not have married her. He also accused her of isolating him from his family, alleging that she blocked at least one of his daughters from his phone. This accusation adds another layer of complexity to their already contentious divorce proceedings.
The couple’s relationship has been under intense scrutiny, especially after Firerose’s allegations of abuse. In her court filing, she described Cyrus’s behavior as “unpredictable and volatile,” attributing it to “persistent drug use” and the consumption of marijuana. These claims have been vehemently denied by Cyrus, who has sought to clear his name by sharing the love note and text messages from Firerose.
Cyrus’s legal team has also weighed in on the matter, describing Firerose’s allegations as “confusing and suspicious.” They pointed out the inconsistency in her behavior, noting that she begged Cyrus to reconcile just two days after he filed for divorce. “If Mr. Cyrus was truly guilty of the allegations that [Firerose] alleges in her pleadings, then it is mindboggling to try and explain why she would want to return to live with him,” the legal team stated.
The drama between Cyrus and Firerose has also affected his relationship with his daughter, Miley Cyrus. It is believed that their relationship soured around the time Cyrus’s relationship with Firerose became public. Miley did not attend their October 2023 wedding but served as the maid of honor at her mother’s wedding to “Prison Break” star Dominic Purcell months earlier.
Adding to the financial strain, Cyrus recently requested an emergency motion to prevent Firerose from using his funds after she allegedly spent nearly $100,000 on his credit card in a matter of weeks. This financial dispute further complicates their already messy divorce.
As the legal battle continues, both parties remain steadfast in their positions. Firerose’s legal team has not provided any comments on the matter, leaving the public to speculate about the true nature of their relationship. The unfolding drama between Billy Ray Cyrus and Firerose serves as a stark reminder of how complex and multifaceted personal relationships can be, especially when played out in the public eye.
