On the podcast "The Squeeze," Tish Cyrus, Miley Cyrus' mother, spoke about the two most tragic events she had experienced and the way she chose to deal with them.
She revealed that after her divorce from Billy Ray Cyrus and separation from her mother, she found the solution in marijuana.
"I've always been very open about the fact that I was a marijuana user. I've always had a little anxiety. I think at that time, for me it was almost like medicine, because I'm a big believer in herbal medicine and I think during the time when I lost my mother and my marriage fell apart, I was kind of self-medicating, without even realizing why I was doing it. I think it numbed all that pain," she said.
But this "numbness" was short-lived. After she stopped drinking, she faced severe anxiety, so much so that she says she didn't know what was happening to her. She later underwent therapy, which helped her get through that difficult period.
In April 2022, Tish Cyrus filed for divorce from Billy Ray Cyrus after 29 years of marriage. According to her, this moment was one of the most difficult, because it came two years after her mother passed away.
Since then, Tish Cyrus has built a beautiful relationship with her new husband, actor Dominic Purcell, whom she married in August 2023.
