Billy Ray Cyrus seems to have caused concern within his family, especially among his children. After his controversial performance at the inauguration in January 2025, Billy Ray’s son, Trace Cyrus, revealed that he and his siblings are worried about their father’s health. So what is happening with the «Old Town Road» artist?
Hollywood Life has gathered everything we know about Billy Ray’s health below.
Billy Ray has not publicly disclosed any health issues. However, Trace claimed that his father is «not well» in a lengthy Instagram post in January 2025, which read: «From my earliest memories, all I can remember is my obsession with you and the thought that you were the coolest person in the world. I wanted to be like you. The day you adopted me was the happiest day of my life. Unfortunately, the man I wanted to be so much like is now barely recognizable to me».
«It seems like this world has broken you, and it’s become obvious to everyone but you», - Trace continued in his caption. «You may be annoyed by my post, but I don’t care at this moment».
Trace then noted that he and his sisters, whom he referred to as «girls», - have been «genuinely concerned» about Billy Ray for «many years» and accused him of pushing everyone away. The Cyrus siblings stated that Noah Cyrus «wanted [their father] to be a part of her life» and accused Billy Ray of «not being there for her».
«This is your daughter. She deserves better», - Trace explained, addressing Noah. «Somehow, like me, she still admires you. We all cling to memories of the person we once knew and hope for the day when he returns. You are not well, dad, and everyone is noticing».
Trace concluded his open letter, emphasizing that «this message comes only from a place of love and fear that the world may lose you too soon».
«I love you, dad», - he wrote, adding: «We haven’t talked in a long time, but I haven’t had a drink in over a year and a half. You know what? I feel amazing. I don’t know what you’re struggling with, but I think I have a pretty good idea, and I would like to help you if you opened up and accepted help. You know how to reach me. Until that day comes, I will continue to pray for you».
Billy Ray has six children. He shares Miley Cyrus, Noah, and Braison with his ex-wife Tish, as well as stepchildren Trace and Brandi Cyrus, whom Tish shares with her ex-husband Baxter Neal Helson. Billy Ray is also the father of a son named Christopher Cody, whom he shares with his ex-girlfriend Kristin Luckey.
During Donald Trump’s inauguration ball, Billy Ray complained about technical difficulties on stage. He performed his hits «Old Town Road» and «Achy Breaky Heart».
On stage, Billy Ray seemed irritated when technical difficulties arose, saying, «Check. Is anyone awake? I can’t hear that. Do you hear that? Where is everyone? Check. Is anyone there? Can someone turn on my guitar? We’ll sing a little more… Do you want me to sing more or just leave the stage? I don’t care».
He then told the crowd, «In life, when you have technical difficulties, you just have to keep going, or as President Trump would say, 'you have to fight.'»
Social media users reacted to Billy Ray’s performance, noting that his voice and behavior sounded and looked different than usual
