Billy Ray Cyrus Calls Tish Cyrus A ‘Strong Mother,’ Admits Marriage to Him Was Hard

Billy Ray Cyrus and Tish Cyrus might actually be reconciling … ’cause Billy Ray just heaped praise on his ex-wife — and admitted he’s at fault for many of their marital issues.

The singer-songwriter took to Instagram to share a loving Mother’s Day message … starting with praise for his own mother, Ruthie — from whom he says he inherited an ear for music.

BRC then asks fans for prayers because his family’s so close to healing — and, to prove it, he shouted out Tish … who he’s seemingly been at odds with since their shocking divorce.

Billy calls Tish a “strong mother” … adding he’s the first to admit that he wasn’t an easy person to be married to — and, he’s great at making mistakes.

He calls himself an imperfect man … but adds his mom always told him life is a series of adjustments — and, he’s still working on making many of them.

As far as we can tell, this is the first time Billy’s admitted to wrongdoing in his marriage publicly … and, it seems like tensions between him and Tish have died down considerably since Tish filed for divorce back in 2022.

Of course, Tish has moved on … marrying “Prison Break” star Dominic Purcell — and, Billy’s now with actress Elizabeth Hurley after his short marriage to Firerose ended in annulment.

BTW … Billy’s also got some kind words for his daughter Miley in the post — another sign the two aren’t beefing like they used to anymore. This comes just a couple days after Billy shared a pic with Miley and his son, Braison.
