Billy Ray Cyrus and Firerose settle divorce, ending marriage after less than a year

Billy Ray Cyrus and Firerose’s short-lived marriage is officially over.

The singers have settled their divorce after more than a month of tension and allegations of abuse and fraud, The Times has confirmed. A representative for the “Achy Breaky Heart” singer said the former spouses settled Friday, but did not disclose more information about the terms of their separation.

In a statement shared with The Times, the rep for Cyrus said the singer “is relieved to put this nightmare behind him” while Cyrus dubbed his marriage to Firerose a “crazy insane scam.” Additionally, the father to Grammy winner Miley Cyrus and his rep also alleged that Firerose, 36, legally changed her last name from Hodges to Cyrus “a couple of weeks ago” and that the surname was her “sole impetus for marrying” the 62-year-old singer.
