A public rift within the ‌Cyrus family unfolded when Trace Cyrus, the eldest of⁤ the Cyrus clan, expressed his deep concern ​for his father, country singer Billy Ray Cyrus. Taking to Instagram, Trace reflected on the family’s struggles, stating, “It seems this⁢ world has beaten you down and it’s become⁣ obvious to everyone but you. You ‍may be ⁣upset with ‌me for posting this⁤ but I really could care less at​ this ⁤point.”

His message highlighted ‍a recurring worry that he and his sisters had, “Me and ⁤the girls have been genuinely worried about you for years but you’ve pushed all of us away… You’re not healthy,Dad & ⁢everyone is noticing it.” Trace​ acknowledged the uncertainty surrounding his father’s struggles, saying, “I’m not sure what you’re struggling with exactly, but I want to help.”

Despite these concerns, ​Billy Ray asserted that he was ⁤doing well and attributed any challenges during his performance at the⁣ Liberty ⁤Ball, following President Donald Trump’s ‌inauguration,⁤ solely to technical difficulties.”I wouldn’t have missed the honor of ⁢playing this event whether my microphone, guitar ‍and monitors worked or not. I was ther ‌because President Donald J. Trump invited me,” he explained to PEOPLE in a statement on January​ 22nd.”I had a ball at the Liberty Ball last night and I’ve learned through all these years when the producer says, ‘You’re on,’ you go entertain⁢ the folks even if the equipment goes to hell. I was there for the people and ⁢we had a blast. That’s called rock n roll!!!” He later ‍reinforced this stance on Instagram,‌ even celebrating⁢ his impromptu a cappella rendition of “Achy Breaky Heart” as the “most fun part” of the⁣ night.
