The Cyrus family drama just hit a new high note—and it’s not a pleasant one. Trace Cyrus, the edgy older brother of Miley and the guy who looks like he fronts a rock band (because he does), is in an all-out public spat with their dad, Billy Ray Cyrus. And let me tell you, this drama has more twists than a country line dance.

Trace’s Open Letter: The Concern Heard ‘Round the Internet
Earlier this week, Trace, 35, decided to air his family’s dirty laundry on Instagram. Not just a sock or two, mind you—he unloaded the whole hamper. In a heartfelt yet savage open letter, Trace shared that he and his sisters (yes, even the twerking queen Miley and the brooding Noah) were worried about their 63-year-old dad’s health.

Apparently, the concern peaked when Billy Ray, the man who gave us Achy Breaky Heart and those unforgettable dad jeans, had a less-than-stellar performance at Donald Trump’s inauguration. Billy Ray blamed technical difficulties, but Trace? He’s not buying it. Cue the family intervention vibes.

Billy Ray’s Alleged Response: “Lawyer Up, Son”
Now here’s where it gets spicy. On Saturday, Trace returned to Instagram like the main character in a reality show reunion episode, claiming that instead of a heartfelt father-son chat, Billy Ray threatened him with—wait for it—legal action. Yes, Billy Ray Cyrus, the man who once crooned about his achy, breaky heart, is now allegedly channeling his inner courtroom drama.

“For all of you wondering, no, I still haven’t heard from my dad,” Trace wrote, probably with a dramatic soundtrack playing in his head. “He did contact a family member to let me know he’s taking legal action against me for encouraging him to get help.”

Yikes. Someone pass the popcorn.

Trace Claps Back: A Masterclass in Calling Out Your Dad
Trace wasn’t about to let his dad lawyer up without delivering a mic drop of his own. “Dad, I live 30 minutes away from you. You could’ve just come & talked to me like a man,” he posted, channeling serious Maury energy.

Then, in a move that deserves a standing ovation, Trace dragged his dad further by sharing old photos of happier times, like Father’s Day 2022—what he called “the last good day I had with my dad.” The emotional gut punch was real.

The Direct Call-Out: Zero Filters Given
In another Instagram story, Trace went all in, tagging Billy Ray directly. “Dad, my message was beyond loving. I could have been extremely honest about a lot more, but I don’t want to put your business out there like that.” Translation: You’re lucky I didn’t spill all the tea, old man.

But Trace didn’t stop there. He channeled his inner therapist, life coach, and disappointed child in one go: “For you to threaten me with legal action for wanting you to get help is a disgrace. Pappy is looking down at you with such disappointment, I can assure you.”

Oof. When you bring the ancestors into it, you know it’s serious.

The Final Blow: Respect Lost, But Love Remains
Trace ended his message with a one-two punch that could make any Southern soap opera writer jealous. “I will always love you, but I no longer respect you as a man.” BOOM. Emotional damage: 100%.

He didn’t just throw shade; he built an entire pergola over his dad. And to make sure Billy Ray couldn’t miss it, he tagged his Instagram. Because why text when you can publicly post your feelings for millions to see?

What’s Next for the Cyruses?
Will Billy Ray fire back with a cryptic Instagram post of his own? Will Miley step in with a twerk-themed family mediation? Or will this feud inspire Trace’s next emo rock ballad?

One thing’s for sure: this family drama isn’t over, and we’re all just here for the ride. Stay tuned. The Cyrus family might not be breaking hearts, but they sure are breaking the internet.
