Tish Cyrus is shedding light on the unique dynamic between her children, particularly how her son Trace has navigated the overwhelming fame of his superstar sister, Miley.
In a candid conversation on the Sibling Revelry podcast with hosts Kate Hudson and Oliver Hudson on Monday, November 25, Tish opened up about the sibling bond within her family, emphasizing how Trace has always taken a supportive, non-jealous approach to Miley’s megastardom.
“He really just told me the other day, ‘I’ve always, like, I’ve never been jealous of Miley. I’ve always been grateful for the opportunities I get because of her,'” Tish, 57, shared. “I think that my kids have mostly seen it that way.”
While Tish acknowledged the difficulty of growing up in the shadow of a worldwide sensation, she noted that her children understand how rare Miley’s rise to fame truly is. “I’m sure it’s hard to be… the Mileys of the world don’t come around very often,” she explained. “But my kids have mostly taken it in stride.”
Reflecting on Miley’s rise through Disney’s Hannah Montana, Tish called the industry powerhouse a “machine” and pointed out the extraordinary nature of Miley’s opportunities, comparing it to “winning the lottery.”
Tish emphasized the importance of her children understanding the business and the rare career path Miley had taken. “Not everybody gets to go in that way,” she said. “It’s harder because you have to work harder and do things differently. It’s just a completely different career path and a way into your career than the way Miley had with Hannah Montana.”
In a rare moment of reflection, Trace Cyrus, 35, shared his perspective on how growing up in a famous family impacted his own career. In August 2023, during a candid Instagram Q&A, Trace admitted that while he loved his family, he believed his career might have flourished more if he weren’t connected to such a high-profile family.
“I love my family so much, but I think I’d be much more successful if I wasn’t part of a famous family,” Trace shared. “People immediately want to judge me and discredit all my hard work because of who I’m related to. But that’s so far from the truth. I got a record deal without anyone from my label even knowing who I was related to until after they signed me,” he said, referencing his former band Metro Station.
This honesty revealed Trace’s frustration with how the public perceives his career, often overshadowed by his famous family. Nonetheless, he pointed out that his accomplishments were hard-earned and separate from his sister’s fame.
Tish’s story is not just about Miley. She has five children in total, from two marriages. Trace and his sister Brandi, 37, are her children from her first marriage to Baxter Neal Helson. When Tish married country star Billy Ray Cyrus, they had three more children together: Miley, 32, Braison, 30, and Noah, 24. Billy Ray also has a son, Christopher, 32, from his previous relationship with Kristin Luckey.
While Miley’s fame took the world by storm, Trace has pursued a quieter path, focusing on his solo music career. He recently released his latest single, “On the Run,” in November, continuing to carve out his own space in the music industry.
As Trace’s career continues to evolve, it’s clear that, despite the challenges of being part of such a famous family, he remains grounded and determined to define his success on his own terms. The Cyrus family’s story is one of individual paths, sibling solidarity, and the ever-present balancing act between fame and family.
