On Tuesday, internet users noticed that Miley Cyrus's name had disappeared from Tish Cyrus's list of followed profiles. The timing raised suspicions, as the unfollow occurred just hours after Billy Ray Cyrus hinted at a possible reconciliation with his daughter.
On his Instagram profile, Billy Ray shared an old video of Miley at the piano while he played the guitar. He captioned it, "Can't wait to see this young woman. It's crazy how time flies."
Fans quickly demanded explanations from Tish. In the comments of a post, one follower directly asked, "Why did you unfollow Miley?"
The Cyrus matriarch then tried to shut down the rumors. "I have no idea how that happened, but it's fixed now!" she replied.
It is still unclear whether Billy Ray's post is related to Tish's unfollowing of Miley. However, one curious detail caught the attention of fans: Elizabeth Hurley, the singer's current girlfriend, liked Miley's most recent Instagram post -- also published on Wednesday. Fans speculate that the possible reconciliation between father and daughter, coupled with the good relationship between Miley and Hurley, may have bothered Tish.
Tish, meanwhile, has reportedly recently reconciled with her daughter Noah Cyrus, after a turbulent period between the two. The disagreement reportedly began when Tish began a relationship with Dominic Purcell, who, according to rumors, was involved with Noah before starting the relationship with her mother.
