Noah Cyrus and Dominic Purcell were seeing each other before mom Trish married actor: report
Sharing is not caring for the Cyrus family.
Tish Cyrus’ husband, Dominic Purcell, was reportedly seeing her youngest daughter, Noah Cyrus, before they got together, according to several reports.
“Noah and Dominic were seeing each other in a friends with benefits way, off and on,” an insider told People Friday. “They stopped seeing each other and then Tish started something up.”
According to the source, Tish, 56, knew of Purcell’s relationship with Noah, 24, but “never gave Noah the chance to talk about all of this before they got married.”
Meanwhile, a source for “Entertainment Tonight” claimed Tish decided against warning Noah about her budding romance with her ex.
Noah, in return, is reportedly quite “offended” by the entire situation, according to People’s source.

Us Weekly broke the news about the family drama, with an insider claiming, “Noah was [seeing] Dominic when Tish started pursuing him.”
The source also alleged, “The turmoil between Noah and Tish goes far beyond [what people think]. Noah is very distraught over Tish stealing Dominic from her.”
Page Six did not receive a reply from representatives for Tish, Noah or Purcell regarding the reports.
Fans may recall that the “July” hitmaker did not attend her mother’s August 2023 nuptials — at which Miley Cyrus, 31, served as the maid of honor. She instead spent time perusing the aisles of Walmart with her brother Braison.
While many saw their outing as a slight to Tish, the celebrity mom reportedly didn’t want Noah or Braison at her special day celebration.

“Tish was the one who did not invite Noah and Braison to her wedding, and blocked them on Instagram after she pursued Dominic,” a person close to the Cyrus family claimed to “Entertainment Tonight.”
“It was Tish who requested security at her wedding to keep Noah and Braison out.”
Although Noah was reportedly gobsmacked by the news of her mother romancing her ex, she has since found happiness. She announced her engagement to fashion designer Pinkus in June 2023.
“the greatest moment of my entire life was saying ‘yes’ to spending the rest of ours together,” she captioned her Instagram announcement at the time.
“this past month of being your fiancé and being in our own little world of just us two has been so perfect and i wish i could never leave this time.”
She went on to call her fiancé “the most talented, the most loyal, [and] the kindest person.”
Tish announced her engagement to the “Prison Break” actor, 54, just months before in April 2023.
She was previously married to Noah, Miley and Braison’s father, Billy Ray Cyrus, for 28 years. He also adopted her kids, Brandi, 36, and Trace, 35, when they tied the knot in 1993. He already had a son, Christopher, 31, when they got together.
After being on and off several times, Tish filed for divorce from the “Hannah Montana” alum for good in April 2022.
She revealed during her February 2024 appearance on the “Call Her Daddy” podcast that their marriage fell apart during the COVID-19 pandemic.
“[Our marriage] had not been in a good place for a long time, and I think I did stay so long out of fear — literal fear — of being alone,” she explained.
And when Billy Ray traveled to Tennessee while she stayed in California to be near their kids during the pandemic, she realized it was over.
“[I was just] looking at myself and going, ‘What in the heck are you doing?’” she candidly recalled.
“And so I literally just had made that firm decision and was like, ‘I’m moving on with my life.’ And, you know what, girl? It worked out for the best.”
