Miley Tish’s mother is trying to ‘heal’ her marriage to Australian actor Dominic Purcell amid reports he first dated her daughter Noah.
To Di For podcast host Kinsey Scofield discussed singer-songwriter Miley Cyrus’ latest family drama. There are reports that Tish Cyrus’ husband, Australian actor Dominic Purcell, was dating her youngest daughter Noah before the two got together. Billy Ray Cyrus’ ex-wife revealed on a podcast that her marriage “definitely has issues.” “I blame Billy Ray Cyrus and the Disney Channel for all of this,” Ms Scofield told Sky News presenter Rita Panahi. “Because it’s classic dysfunction — I could never date someone my mom dated.”
An insider said Us Weekly Thursday that the couple has been “working on communication and seeking therapy together” amid bombshell reports about their marriage.
“It pushed them away from each other [and it’s] it will take time to heal,” a second source told the publication.
Last month, several outlets reported that Purcell was romantically involved with his current wife’s youngest daughter before they got together.
Tish Cyrus married Australian actor Dominic Purcell in 2023, nine months after dating.
“Noah and Dominique saw each other as friends with benefits, every now and then,” the insider said people at this time. “They stopped seeing each other and then Tish started something.”
According to Us Weekly — who first reported the news — the Jail break actor, 54, and July singer, 24, are said to have been involved for around eight or nine months before Tish “started chasing him”.

Noah was reportedly “confused” and “offended” by the whole situation, driving a wedge between the mother-daughter duo.
Although neither of them have addressed the situation, Tish is reportedly hopeful that Noah will eventually recover.
Tish hinted that there are some “issues” in her marriage to Purcell during an appearance on Brandi Cyrus’ daughter’s podcast Sorry to be stoned last month.

The mother-of-five revealed she was “so scared” when she first met Purcell because their astrological signs were not a good match.
Tish – a Taurus – explained that he “gets offended easily” and “takes things so personally”, while Purcell – an Aquarius – is “straightforward” and “unemotional”.
“And that can be a problem,” she said. “But you know what, this is where I grew up, it’s like, I just feel like instead of being so offended because I respect him and I love that we’re having conversations.”
Tish and Dominic went public with their romance in November 2022.

She continued, “And instead [of] I get so upset and heated about it and I don’t take it personally, I just let him have an opinion. I’ve never been good at it. These are definitely problems. But also issues that I deal with because I love it.”
Tisch and Purcell went public with their romance in November 2022 and married nine months later.
However, fans first became aware of the family drama after Noah and her older brother Brayson missed their mother’s wedding.
Instead of attending the romantic ceremony, the brother-sister duo were seen strolling around Walmart and enjoying a relaxing brunch at Vivian’s Cafe.
However, Tish’s other children — Miley, Brandi and Trace — were in attendance when she walked down the aisle.
