In the intriguing world of celebrity relationships, twists and turns are not uncommon. The latest revelation involves singer Noah Cyrus, 24, and actor Dominic Purcell, 54, whose romantic involvement took an unexpected turn when Dominic entered into a relationship with Noah’s mother, Tish Cyrus, 56. As the plot thickens, details emerge about the timeline of these connections and the dynamics within the Cyrus family.
According to a source close to the situation, Noah and Dominic shared a casual, on-and-off, friends-with-benefits relationship. This arrangement eventually came to an end, paving the way for a surprising development: Tish Cyrus stepping into the picture. The source discloses, “Noah and Dominic were seeing each other in a friends with benefits way, off and on. They stopped seeing each other and then Tish started something up. Tish knew he had been seeing Noah.”
While Noah and Dominic had parted ways before Tish’s involvement, the revelation suggests that the transition from Noah to Tish transpired without a thorough discussion between mother and daughter. The source notes, “Tish never gave Noah the chance to talk about all of this before they got married.”
Noah’s representative has chosen not to comment on the matter, and representatives for Tish Cyrus and Dominic Purcell have yet to respond to inquiries.
This revelation comes on the heels of reports that Noah Cyrus has been a pillar of support for her father, Billy Ray Cyrus, amid the strains in the Cyrus family. An insider shared, “Noah is very loyal to Billy Ray. She and Billy Ray have always had a really close relationship.”
The country singer, Billy Ray Cyrus, initiated divorce proceedings from Tish in April 2022 after over 28 years of marriage. The former couple, who have both remarried since their divorce, share a blended family with daughters Brandi, Miley, and Noah, as well as sons Trace and Braison. Despite the complexities of their family dynamics, the insider acknowledges that the separation was “long overdue” and acknowledges the challenges faced by the children.
“It hasn’t been easy for any of the kids. Their parents’ separation was really hard, but it was also long overdue,” the insider stated.
The family’s representative issued a joint statement exclusively to PEOPLE at the time of the separation, expressing the decision with love and hope: “It is after 30 years, five amazing children and a lifetime of memories, we have decided to go our separate ways — not with sadness, but with love in our hearts.”
The statement continued, “We will always be family and look forward to a continued and loving shared experience as friends and parents. We have not come to this decision lightly or quickly but with so much going on in the world, we wanted to provide some clarity and closure, so we can remain focused on what is important. With Love and Hope… Tish and Billy Ray Cyrus.”
Adding another layer to this intricate tale, Noah Cyrus revealed her engagement to Peter Pinkus in June of the previous year. Interestingly, she was not in attendance at Tish Cyrus’s wedding to Dominic Purcell in August. As the saga unfolds, the public can only speculate about the dynamics and emotions at play within the Cyrus family, turning this celebrity storyline into one of intrigue and fascination.
