Dolly Parton is racing to save the Cyrus family from implosion after recent bombshell allegations threaten to tear them apart forever.

In a bizarre report published by US Weekly, a source claims that Tish Cyrus, 56, had begun dating her now-husband, Australian actor Dominic Purcell, 54, after he was involved with her 24-year-old daughter Noah!

โ€œNoah was [seeing] Dominic when Tish started pursuing him,โ€ a source told the publication, adding that Tish โ€œwas aware of this when she began to contact the starโ€.

FAMILY DRAMA

Since then, the claims have been refuted, with another source confirming to the media that โ€œNoah never dated Dominic and they were not togetherโ€.

โ€œNoah has always craved attention because she did not get it growing up. She is delusional to think otherwise and is trying to create a narrative that will paint her as a victim.โ€

Whether the rumours are true or not remains to be seen, however Dolly, 78, who was asked to be Mileyโ€™s godmother by father Billy Ray while they were touring together in the early โ€™90s, is said to be โ€œheartbrokenโ€ by the rift.

She has put a hold on her new album promotion and flown from Tennessee to LA, where sheโ€™s taking on the role as the familyโ€™s peacemaker.

Whispers of a feud in the family have been simmering ever since mum Tish and father Billy Ray, 62, filed for divorce in 2022, with the news said to have caused ripples within the Cyrus compound.

However, it wasnโ€™t until the parents found and married new partners that a divide โ€“ particularly among the once inseparable siblings, Brandi, 36, Trace, 35, Miley and Christopher, both 31, Braison, 29, and Noah โ€“ was made more evident.

In 2022, Miley sensationally unfollowed her father on social media after he announced his engagement to his much younger girlfriend, Australian musician Firerose, 34.

At the time, sources claimed that the Hannah Montana star struggled to come to terms with her father dating a woman her age. While this was said to have brought her closer to her mother Tish, Noah and her brother Braison appeared to gravitate towards their father.

The pair were noticeably absent from their motherโ€™s nuptials with her new partner Dominic last year, choosing to spend their day at a Walmart store instead.

Tellingly, Noah uploaded videos of her sporting Billy Ray merch, clearly pointing at where her loyalties lie.

DISRESPECT

Noah then added fuel to the feud rumours when she publicly called out Miley after a podcast interview resurfaced on TikTok.

The Wrecking Ball songstress labelled her sisterโ€™s record The End Of Everything โ€œthe most depressing EP youโ€™ll ever listen toโ€. Later, Noah uploaded a snippet of the interview to Twitter, adding the caption, โ€œThe disrespect in this videoโ€ฆโ€

Having been close to the Cyrus family for decades, Dolly knows just how close they were โ€“ and how far they have fallen. Sheโ€™s hoping that she can get through to them by getting to the core of the problem, which she believes starts with Miley and Billy Ray.

In a recent interview, Dolly expressed how she often gives Miley advice, but sources say sadly, she has found herself in the middle of the drama.

โ€œDolly has told Billy to apologise, which has caused a lot of tension between them,โ€ tells one insider, who says their closeness has subsided in recent months.

โ€œBilly wants to sort things out himself and doesnโ€™t necessarily want Dolly involved.โ€
