How Billy Ray's ex-wife Tish Cyrus first suspected an affair with Elizabeth Hurley YEARS ago

Tish Cyrus, Billy Ray Cyrus’s former wife, had suspicions for a long time that he had been unfaithful with Elizabeth Hurley, his new partner, years back. Despite this, he adamantly denied any wrongdoing when questioned.

The 63-year-old country musician and the 59-year-old British model seemed to confirm their relationship casually on Easter Sunday by sharing an affectionate photo with the public.

Even though the news of their romance caught many by surprise, Tish Cyrus, aged 57, wasn’t shocked at all, having witnessed their close bond while they worked together on the movie Christmas in Paradise in 2022, a time when Billy Ray Cyrus and Tish were still married.

Speaking exclusively to the Daily Mail, an insider claimed that while the new relationship is a ‘slap in the face’ for Tish, she was likely right about her suspicions.

They said: ‘Billy Ray met Elizabeth in 2022 on the set of their Christmas film, which they both starred in.

‘Tish had her thoughts and suspicions at the time that he was cheating on her with Liz, but Billy Ray flat out denied it.

‘They got very close on the set and seeing that they are together now is a slap in the face for Tish, but it also confirms that she was likely right about her suspicions. They never stopped being in contact.’

Tish and Billy Ray officially divorced in April 2022 after nearly three decades of marriage. They share daughters Miley, 32, and Noah, 25, and son Braison, 30.

Billy Ray also adopted Tish’s daughter Brandi, 37, and son Trace, 36, from her previous marriage.

Tish has since moved on and married actor Dominic Purcell, who she wed in an intimate Malibu ceremony in August 2023 with Miley as her maid of honor.

Billy Ray, meanwhile, finalized his whirlwind divorce from singer Firerose in August, just months after a dramatic break-up that played out both publicly and privately.

After an increasingly bitter and public break up, during which each accused the other of verbal and emotional abuse, court documents obtained exclusively by the Daily Mail show that Firerose walked away with $0.

Elizabeth’s last long-term relationship with cricketer Shane Warne ended in 2013, following a marriage to Arun Nayar and a 13-year romance with Hugh Grant.

She shares a son, Damian, with the late businessman Steve Bing.

The insider went on to claim that Elizabeth ‘is good’ for Billy Ray and that he can ‘be himself’ around her. 

They added: ‘Despite what people think about this, she is good for him. 

‘If she can keep Billy Ray on the straight and narrow, more power to her.

‘The fact that she has such a history with him and met him at a time in his life when he was doing well is a good thing. He can be himself around her.’

However, the source noted that many in Billy Ray’s family ‘feel that Liz is a rebound from Firerose’.

Elizabeth and Billy Ray both shared the PDA-filled photo announcing their relationship to their respective accounts on Sunday.

At the same time, Tish shared her own Easter post and uploaded a snap of her daughter Noah collecting eggs.

It remains unclear when Billy Ray and Elizabeth started dating and when their work relationship turned into something more personal.

While promoting their Christmas film, Elizabeth described the musician as ‘an absolute hoot’ in an interview with the Boston Herald.  

And earlier this month, she dropped a big clue about the romance when she uploaded a reel of herself on Instagram frolicking on the beach with Billy Ray’s song She’s Not Cryin’ Anymore playing beneath it and tagging the singer.
