New details surrounding Billy Ray Cyrus’ shock divorce filing from Australian wife Firerose after just seven months of marriage have been revealed.
TMZ reported that the 62-year-old singer claimed irreconcilable differences and “inappropriate marital conduct” were the reasons for their split.
Additionally, Cyrus seeks an annulment, alleging that the marriage was entered into fraudulently.
He said their separation date was May 22, 2024 in divorce papers filed last month.
In court documents obtained by E!, Cyrus says he is seeking the annulment because “he gave his consent to the marriage based on fraud on the part of the wife, that if he had known, he would not have entered into the bonds of marriage.

TMZ also reports that it appears Billy wanted Firerose, 34, out of their home by May 24. He is willing to pay up to $500 per night for 10 days for his accommodation costs.
Once the 10-day deadline is up, he is willing to pay $5,000 per month for her to acquire a suitable new house in Tennessee.
Billy is willing to make the payments within 90 days or once their divorce is officially finalized, whichever comes first. Payments must be made on the first of the month.
DailyMail.com has reached out for comment from Billy’s rep.
The singer married his Australian wife in October 2023 but filed for divorce in late May – according to TMZ. She was his third wife – he was married to Cindy Smith from 1986 to 1991 and to Miley Cyrus’ mother Tish from 1993 to 2022.
The divorce case states that there are no minor children between them.
Tish Cyrus – who shares three children – including Miley Cyrus – with Achy Breaky Heart hitmaker – married Prison Break star Dominic Purcell in 2023.
Billy and Firerose previously opened up about their romance and the unexpected way they met and eventually got married.
On an episode of The Kelly Clarkson Show last year, Clarkson asked the couple about the story of how they met, with Firerose saying, “It’s actually a funny story because I was coming out of an audition at the Sunset Gala in Hollywood.”
Additionally, Cyrus seeks an annulment, alleging that the marriage was entered into fraudulently.
The couple tied the knot in an “ethereal celebration of love” in October and shared images from the special day on Instagram.
The couple met on a street in Los Angeles while Billy was with his dog and Firerose was leaving an audition.
“(He) was the most beautiful German Shepherd you ever saw,” Firerose said, “he was exploited for divine purpose because we were, at the time, just friends and all these years more late…that was 14 years ago All these years later, we just got married.
Their wedding took place more than a year after the initial announcement of their engagement, and almost two years after Billy Ray’s divorce from Tish Cyrus.
The hitmaker said “yes” to the Australian singer earlier this month, just two months after his ex-wife Tish married Prison Break star Dominic Purcell in August.
In the caption of a joint Instagram post with his new wife, Billy sweetly wrote: “10/10/23 will always be the beautiful and joyful day when our two souls joined as one in holy matrimony. ”
Cyrus said: “It was the most perfect, ethereal celebration of love we could ever imagine.”
“For both of us, hearing the preacher say, ‘Billy Ray and Firerose Cyrus…I now pronounce you man and wife,’ was the sacred moment our new eternity began. Long live love! ❤️.’
This is the end of Billy’s third marriage – he is pictured with his second wife Tish Cyrus and daughter Miley Cyrus in 2019 – he was married to Tish from 1993 to 2022.
The Achy Breaky Heart singer married Fireose just two months after his ex-wife Tish married Prison Break star Dominic Purcell in August.
Just a month after the split, Billy shared a sweet snap with his wife and told her “there’s so much to be grateful for.”
Billy and Firerose are seen in happier times
In August 2022, Billy proposed to Firerose, however, he did not confirm their engagement until later that same year in November.
After Billy Ray and Tish, 57, divorced last year after nearly 30 years of marriage, a source said their five children “have chosen sides”, but “friends hope the breakup doesn’t last eternally”.
The two notably collaborated on the track titled New Day, released in 2021 and the pair have also performed the song together on a number of talk shows.
Cyrus and Firerose also worked on the track Plans, which they sang together on Good Morning America in September.

He is now embroiled in a family feud with his daughter Miley.
The Grammy Award winner shared a photo of himself with his daughter Miley along with a poem he wrote for her on Friday amid a reported breakup.
“One of my favorite memories: @cma Fest, back when it was Fan Fair,” Billy Ray began the caption. “It’s @mileycyrus and me, surrounded by thousands of incredible fans at the fairgrounds.”
He held Miley, now 31, like a baby in the photo, which was framed with two pages of handwritten poetry.
“The next day, someone handed me this photo and I immediately wrote this poem on the bus,” he said.
Tish married Dominic Purcell in an intimate ceremony in Malibu last August, with Miley as maid of honor.
Noah, 24, and son Braison Cyrus, 29, were notably absent from the nuptials, fueling further speculation of a feud at the time.
In February, reports emerged that Noah was dating Purcell, 54, when Tish “started pursuing him” and she “knew” he was with her daughter.

“The turmoil between Noah and Tish goes way beyond (what people think),” a source told Us Weekly. “Noah is very upset that Tish stole Dominic from him.”
Another source has since told DailyMail.com that Noah made up the story about his relationship with Purcell.
“Noah never dated Dominic and they weren’t together,” the source said. “She has the illusion of thinking otherwise and tries to create a narrative that portrays her as a victim.”
Billy Ray and Tish also share daughter Brandi, 37, and son Trace, 35, his children from a previous relationship whom he adopted. Additionally, he is a father to son Christopher Cody, 32.
