The couple’s unexpected relationship has sparked widespread curiosity, especially considering Hurley and Cyrus had never been publicly linked before. Sources close to the couple have shared that their connection deepened after a supportive gesture from Hurley.

According to insiders, Cyrus, who had been going through a rough period following his divorce from singer Firerose in June 2024, received a heartfelt text from Hurley offering emotional support during this challenging time.

Hurley, who had worked with Cyrus on the 2022 film Christmas in Paradise, reached out to him with a simple yet meaningful message, and this gesture sparked a deeper bond between the two. What began as a friendly conversation soon evolved into a romantic relationship.

For Billy Ray Cyrus, this relationship marks another chapter in his personal life following a string of high-profile divorces. Known for his hit song Achy Breaky Heart, Cyrus has been married three times and has six children, including his famous daughter, pop star Miley Cyrus.

His most recent marriage to Firerose, a fellow musician, lasted only seven months and ended in a bitter divorce amid allegations of inappropriate conduct. Prior to this, Cyrus was married to Tish Cyrus for nearly three decades, before they separated in 2022.
