Report: Noah Cyrus and Dominic Purcell were dating before mom Trish married actor

Reports suggest that there was more drama within the Cyrus family than meets the eye.

It has been revealed that Tish Cyrus’ husband, Dominic Purcell, was allegedly in a friends with benefits relationship with her youngest daughter, Noah Cyrus, before they officially became a couple. According to an insider speaking to People, Noah and Dominic had an on-again, off-again arrangement before Tish got involved with him.

The insider revealed, “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.” This revelation sheds light on the dynamics between the family members.

It has been reported that Tish was aware of Purcell’s involvement with Noah, but she proceeded with her relationship without allowing Noah to address the situation before they tied the knot.

On the other hand, a source for “Entertainment Tonight” claimed that Tish chose not to inform Noah about her intentions to pursue a romantic connection with her ex. This lack of communication has led to feelings of offense on Noah’s part, as stated by People’s source.

Us Weekly was the first to report on the family drama, with an insider claiming that Noah and Dominic had a romantic connection while Tish was also interested in him. The source suggested that the tension between Noah and Tish extends beyond what is known publicly, with Noah feeling deeply affected by her mother’s actions.

Page Six reached out to representatives for Tish, Noah, and Purcell for comment on these reports but did not receive a response.

Notably, Noah did not attend her mother’s wedding in August 2023, where Miley Cyrus served as the maid of honor. Instead, she was spotted shopping at Walmart with her brother Braison on the occasion.

While some viewed Noah’s absence as a statement, reports suggest that Tish specifically requested Noah and Braison not be present at the wedding. Security measures were reportedly put in place to ensure their exclusion from the event.

A source close to the Cyrus family disclosed to “Entertainment Tonight” that Tish made the decision to exclude Noah and Braison from the wedding festivities. Furthermore, she allegedly blocked them on Instagram after pursuing a relationship with Purcell.

It has been reported that Tish went to great lengths to keep Noah and Braison away from her wedding, indicating a deep rift within the family.

Despite the shocking revelation of her mother’s relationship with her ex, Noah has found happiness in her own life. She announced her engagement to fashion designer Pinkus in June 2023, expressing her joy and love for him on social media.

In her Instagram announcement, Noah described her fiancé as the most talented, loyal, and kind person, highlighting the strength of their relationship.

Interestingly, Tish herself announced her engagement to Dominic Purcell just a few months earlier in April 2023. Prior to Purcell, Tish was married to Billy Ray Cyrus for 28 years, and they share three children together.

After multiple attempts at reconciliation, Tish filed for divorce from Billy Ray in April 2022, citing the pandemic as a catalyst for their decision to end their marriage.

In a candid interview on the “Call Her Daddy” podcast in February 2024, Tish opened up about the challenges in her marriage and the realization that it was time to move on. Reflecting on her past decisions, she expressed relief at finally making the choice to prioritize her own happiness and well-being.

Their journey through separation and divorce has been a profound one, leading Tish to a place of acceptance and growth as she embarks on a new chapter in her life.

Despite the challenges and controversies that have arisen within the Cyrus family, both Tish and Noah have found paths to happiness and fulfillment in their personal lives, emphasizing the resilience and strength of the bonds that unite them.
