New Claim on What Broke Up Billy Ray and Tish Cyrus Marriage is Disturbing

(HMG Celebrity Gossip) – When Billy Ray and Tish Cyrus announced they had separated gossip being what it is today, there was an almost immediate theory that an affair had caused the split after 17 years of marriage. In the beginning of the year Bret Michaels worked with Miley on the racy duet “Nothing to Lose.” Michaels, 47, became close to the entire family and supposedly he and Tish, 43, carried on an on-the-sly romance. Michaels has since denied those claims vehemently. So now a new claim has emerged that it was daughter Miley who sparked the fight that ended it all.

The National Enquirer is reporting that a fight between  Billy Ray and Tish over daughter Miley’s ongoing brash behavior, escalated into violence and ultimately caused the couple’s divorce!

According to the Enquirer’s sources, Billy Ray attempted to ground Miley for talking back to him, and when Tish undermined him by letting the pop star go out, he lost control and went on a rampage. The insider explains:

“Billy screamed terrible things at Tish. Then he started kicking in the door. Tish locked herself in her bedroom to escape Billy Ray’s wrath. And he pounded on the door screaming: ‘Come out here and talk to me, bitch! You let everyone run wild when I’m not here! It’s going to STOP!’”

Supposedly one of their children cowered, terrified, nearby as this all happened. I am just having trouble picturing Billy Ray attempting to ground Miley, who basically is on her own most of the time jet-setting around the world.  So count me as not really buying this story. And really I think Miley, Braison, and Noah, feel bad enough that their parents are divorcing, so I really hope this is not some made up story to sell a few more copies of the Enquirer.
