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.

James Van Der Beek’s widow shares tender tribute on first wedding anniversary since his death

James Van Der Beek’s widow, Kimberly, shared a touching message about the actor on what would have been their 16th wedding anniversary.
The “Dawson’s Creek” alum died in February after a battle with colorectal cancer. He was 48 years old.
On Sunday, Kimberly honored their anniversary by posting selfies of them together on Instagram as well as a pic of him in a group hug with their six children.
“16 years ago I was the luckiest woman in the world to marry @vanderjames,” she wrote. “The beauty of this marriage continues to unfold everyday with all these incredible children we have.”
“He continues to be present and guide us,” she added. “I’m eternally grateful. 🙏🌹😍🥰.”
Van Der Beek married Kimberly — his second wife after his split from his first wife, Heather McComb — on Aug. 1, 2010. They shared kids Olivia, 15, Joshua, 14, Annabel, 12, Emilia, 10, Gwendolyn, 8, and Jeremiah, 4.
Kimberly, 44, has continued to honor her late husband since his death. Last month, she shared throwback pics with him on Instagram, captioning her post, “Baby, love does not die. Death does not part.”
She also shared intimate pics of him being a dad to their children on the first Father’s Day since his death, writing, “Missing you so much and thinking of how magnificent you were in every single way today. And somehow, from the other side? You continue to parent. You’re a marvel. 🩵.”
Back in May, she acknowledged that she wasn’t doing well three months after Van Der Beek’s tragic death.
“To say I’m heartbroken is a severe understatement,” the film producer candidly wrote.
“Words just don’t capture what grief is. The comforts of shock have worn off. The reality is settling in … and I miss him. We all miss him.”
Still, she expressed her gratitude for the “outpouring of support” that been “beyond anything [she] could have ever expected.”
“I am deeply grateful. There is so much more to share here. And in time — I will,” she wrote.
McComb also revealed last month how she was on great terms with the “Varsity Blues” star despite their divorce in June 2010 after nearly seven years of marriage. She shared that he gave her his blessing when she told him she was getting married again to actor Scott Michael Campbell before he died.
McComb told Us Weekly of her ex-husband and Kimberly’s reaction, “They both were so full of love and support and excitement.”
“I know that James would want me to celebrate our love, just like he celebrated the love that he had for Kimberly, which was so beautiful.”

Modest Mouse boots guitarist Simon O’Connor from tour after allegations he sent inappropriate messages to minor

Modest Mouse has booted guitarist Simon O’Connor from its upcoming North American tour after he was accused of sending inappropriate messages to a teen fan.
The indie rock band announced Friday that O’Connor, who is in his 40s, will not join them on the road beginning Tuesday in Ojai, Calif.
“Simon O’Connor will not be joining us on the upcoming tour,” the “Float On” rockers wrote on Instagram.
“The good news is that Seth Jabour of Les Savy Fav will be jumping in to play guitar. We look forward to being out there with you all.”
On July 26, O’Connor was accused by a Reddit user, who identified themselves as a 17-year-old fan, of sending them “an erotic image” and commenting on their “bikini pics” through Instagram direct message.
The user, who posted a series of screenshots of their alleged conversations on the social platform, said they were 16 at the time of the interaction and had their date of birth listed in their Instagram profile.
O’Connor allegedly opened the conversation with a sticker reading, “Simon calls your bluff, BUZZZ,” before sending what the user described as a sexually explicit meme of a naked man.
The user responded by suggesting O’Connor’s account had been hacked.
“Wish I was hacked just had a party night and looking at everything with one eye ya know,” O’Connor allegedly replied.
“But you did blindside me with a gaggle of likes and then very little intro besides bikini pics so we are both to blame.”
O’Connor’s message was quickly deleted, but the recipient said they had taken a screenshot.
The user also alleged O’Connor viewed an Instagram Story counting down to their 17th birthday before later messaging, “sorry.”
O’Connor responded Monday in a lengthy statement, apologizing to the fan while saying he had mistaken them for someone he believed had repeatedly harassed him online using fake accounts.
“Throughout my adult life, there has been a person who has popped up from time to time with the intention of, for lack of a better term, messing with me,” O’Connor wrote on the Modest Mouse subreddit.
“I assumed that this was the same person I had dealt with before and, with poor judgement, I decided to reach out with a tasteless meme, a sticker that read ‘Simon calls your bluff,’ and an attempt to indicate that I recognized the ‘barrage of likes’ and similar photo content from the previous profiles…. Almost a ‘gotcha.’”
“After a few minutes, I realized that I had made a mistake and this was not the person who I had dealt with before,” he continued. “I unsent the messages and immediately ceased communication.”
“I’m genuinely sorry to the person who received those messages,” O’Connor added.
“They didn’t deserve to be put in that position, and I’m sorry for the stress and attention this has brought them. I know some people will choose not to believe me, and I understand that. I can’t change what’s happened.
“All I can do is tell the truth, take responsibility for my mistake, and apologize.”
The guitarist also wrote that he “unequivocally” opposes “any sexual behavior towards minors.”
The band did not explain O’Connor’s tour absence or say whether he remains a member in their statement Friday.
O’Connor joined Modest Mouse’s touring lineup in 2021 after performing in New York City’s music scene as Simon Doom.
He also appears on the band’s latest album, “An Eraser and a Maze,” which was released in June.
Fronted by Isaac Brock, Modest Mouse has been one of indie rock’s biggest bands since breaking through with the 2004 hit “Float On” and the platinum-selling album “Good News for People Who Love Bad News.”
Brock is now the band’s only original member following drummer Jeremiah Green’s death from cancer in 2022 at age 45.

Vincent Pastore mourned by ‘Sopranos’ cast after his death

The “Sopranos” cast is mourning the loss of one of their own.
Shortly after news broke that Vincent Pastore, who played Salvatore “Big Pussy” Bonpensiero on HBO’s “The Sopranos,” had died, his co-stars began paying tribute to him.
In a statement to Page Six, Edie Falco said, “It’s an awful loss. So unexpected.”
The actress, who played Carmela Soprano on the series, added, “Vinnie was always so full of life.”
Michael Imperioli, who played Christopher Moltisanti on “The Sopranos,” called Pastore a “beloved friend and collaborator” in a heartfelt Instagram post.
“This is a hard one for us, it seems like I’ve known Vinny forever,” he continued. “We did lots of work together and traveled all over the USA as well as Italy and Australia. Lots of good times. Lots of laughs.”
Imperioli concluded his tribute by noting that Pastore “was a kind hearted brother who cared deeply about his family and friends,” noting, “I will miss him always.”
In a post shared to her Instagram Stories, Lorraine Bracco wrote, “Such a funny & charming man…just a beautiful soul.”
The actress, who played Jennifer Melfi on the hit show, called Pastore’s death “absolutely heartbreaking 💔.”
Dominic Chianese, who played Corrado “Junior” Soprano, wrote in an Instagram post, “We lost a friend today.”
“Paying respect and sending Love in tribute,” he continued. “You were a gem Vinnie🤍.”
Page Six confirmed Pastore’s death at the age of 80 on Saturday, with sources telling us he was found dead by a neighbor in his home on City Island in the Bronx.
Police sources told Page Six the actor had died of natural causes.
In a heartfelt statement to Page Six, Pastore’s longtime manager, Robert Attermann, mourned his death in a lengthy statement.
“I had the privilege of representing Vinny for more than 30 years, long before ‘The Sopranos’ made him a household name,” Attermann said. “To the world, he will always be remembered as the unforgettable ‘Big Pussy,’ but to those of us who knew him, he was so much more.”
Attermann called Pastore “one of the kindest, most generous people [he’d] ever known,” noting that he “treated everyone with warmth and respect, never turning down a fan who wanted a photograph or an autograph.”
“He loved being an actor. He was passionate about his craft and was always encouraging, respectful, and generous with young actors, taking the time to offer guidance and support whenever he could,” he continued, calling Pastore’s loss “deeply personal” for him.
Attermann said he’ll remember Pastore not just for his “remarkable career but also the incredible person he was.”
“I will miss his friendship, his loyalty, his humor, and his heart,” he wrote, offering his condolences to Pastore’s family, friends, colleagues and “countless fans whose lives he touched.”
He noted that the actor “leaves behind a legacy that extends far beyond his memorable performances” and that he’ll “be greatly missed and never forgotten.”
Pastore starred on “The Sopranos” for the iconic show’s first two seasons. He returned for a recurring role in Season 3 and returned in a guest capacity for the final two seasons.
“The Sopranos,” largely regarded as one of the greatest dramas of all time, aired for six seasons between 1999 and 2007, earning critical acclaim and numerous awards throughout its run.
Pastore joins the growing list of “Sopranos” cast members who have died over the years, including James Gandolfini, Nancy Marchand and Jerry Adler — to name a few.
