Tish Cyrus has revealed one of her regrets as a mother – amid claims she is locked in a feud with her daughter Noah, 24.
Putting the feud rumors to one side, Tish, 56, and her eldest daughter Brandi, 36, appeared on Wiz Khalifa’s podcast Putting It All On The Line this week.
During a rollicking conversation with the marijuana-loving rapper, Tish confessed that she wished she had indulged in cannabis when her children were young.
‘I didn’t smoke pot when I had kids,’ said Tish. ‘I didn’t start smoking until I was like 46, and so – but I think I would’ve been a better parent if I would’ve smoked then.’
If she had begun when her children were younger, she could have made ‘school projects’ into a ‘more fun’ experience instead of getting frustrated the way she did.

Referring to Brandi, Tish noted: ‘She doesn’t smoke at all, and she will tell me like: “You are so much better when you smoke”‘ – to which Brandi concurred.
‘My decision-making is so much better now that I smoke weed,’ Tish marveled. ‘This is so great, that now, like, I’m starting to understand myself.’
When Tish’s most notorious daughter Miley Cyrus made her rocky transition from child stardom to adult fame, she made a point of flaunting her marijuana use.
Tish, at that point, had yet to begin indulging in the drug and told Wiz she was initially ‘was not happy’ that her daughter was using cannabis.
The remarks come amid claims Tish is allegedly ‘spiraling out of control and trying to figure out how to diffuse’ her rift with daughter Noah.
The mom-of-five reportedly wants to repair their relationship following reports that she ‘stole’ her husband Dominic Purcell from her youngest child, 24.
Despite her best efforts, an insider told Us Weekly that the duo are still ‘on the outs’ and the family ‘rift is real.’
‘Noah and Tish haven’t spoken since the whole thing happened with Dominic,’ the source noted.
At one point, the outlet claims the duo briefly blocked each other via social media when this ‘all this started,’ but have since refollowed each other.
Earlier this week, Us Weekly claimed that their fallout occurred after Tish, 56, began ‘pursuing’ Purcell, 54, who was reportedly romantically involved with Noah for ‘about 8 to 9 months.’
Purcell and Noah, who have a 30 year age gap, were said to be ‘having issues.’
Matriarch Tish – who revealed she suffered a ‘complete psychological breakdown’ before her divorce from Billy Ray Cyrus – notably tied the knot with the Prison Break actor, 54, in August 2023.
While some family members, including daughter Miley Cyrus, were present for her wedding to the Australian actor, Tish’s daughter Noah and son Braison were absent from the nuptials – fueling speculation of a rift at the time.
A source told Us Weekly that ‘Noah was [seeing] Dominic when Tish started pursuing him’ and ‘was aware’ of this when she began to contact the star.
‘The turmoil between Noah and Tish goes far beyond [what people think]. Noah is very distraught over Tish stealing Dominic from her,’ the insider added.
DailyMail.com has reached out to Tish, Dominic and Noah for comment.
Earlier this month, Tish appeared on the Call Her Daddy podcast and opened up about her relationship with Purcell, including details about their first date.
She explained that he had initially reached out to her in 2016 in an Instagram message – which she missed.
‘I had followed him on Instagram and he DMed me and just said, “Hey Tish, just wanted to [say], I think you’re super cool and… you’re doing such a great job with your family.” [But] I didn’t see it for a year.’
However, later in 2017, Tish’s daughter, Brandi, noticed that Purcell had blocked her account.
‘His ex had seen he hit me up and blocked me from his Instagram. I almost peed my pants because I was like… Why am I blocked? He doesn’t even know I exist, and I’m blocked. We were laughing so hard.’
Years later in 2022, following her split from Billy Ray, Tish reached out to Purcell and he quickly responded back. The pair soon went on a date and the next day, told each other ‘I love you.’
The couple eventually said ‘I do’ in August 2023 – but both her daughter Noah and son Braison were not in attendance – and the Us Weekly source has now alleged that the All Falls Down songstress wasn’t actually invited.
The wedding was held at Miley’s lavish Malibu mansion, and the insider claimed that the Grammy winner had guards stationed outside in case Noah did attempt to show up.
During a recent appearance on the Call Her Daddy podcast, Tish opened up about her marriage, describing how she and Dominic first connected on Instagram

However, Noah kept busy on the big day by spending time with her brother, Braison. She took to Instagram to share moments from their day together, including an excursion to Walmart while sporting a Billy Ray Cyrus shirt

At the time, a separate source informed Us Weekly, ‘It’s no secret neither of them approves of Dominic, and that’s created tension with their mom.
‘[Noah has] always been close with Billy Ray… It’s caused a rift between her and Miley,’ the insider continued.
Tish and the Achy Breaky Heart singer tied the knot in 1993 and remained married until she filed for divorce in April 2022 citing ‘irreconcilable differences’, with their date of separation taking place two years earlier.
The pair had ups and downs throughout the relationship, with the singer filing for divorce in 2010 – which was dropped. Tish also previously filed in 2013 – but that had also been dropped.
The former spouses share five children together: biological kids Miley, Noah, 24, and Braison, 29, as well as Brandi, 36, and Trace, 34, Tish’s daughter and son from a previous marriage, who Billy Ray adopted.
Billy Ray also shares a son, Christopher, 31, with his ex, Kristin Luckey.
The rumored family rift also extends to Miley – who notably left her father out of her Grammys acceptance speech earlier this month. The father-daughter duo’s relationship reportedly became shaky following Billy Ray’s split from Tish.
An insider told Page Six shortly after the Grammys earlier this month that Billy has ‘tried reaching out to Miley many times’ and also ‘congratulated her’ on the Grammy wins.

Billy Ray and Tish’s divorce is said to have caused a rift between their kids, with sources saying that Miley (seen with her parents and siblings Noah and Brandi in 2017) remained close to her mother, while Noah sided with her father
‘Miley and Billy Ray are on the outs,’ the source told the outlet. ‘Miley’s very close with her mom and is standing by her.’
While Miley made no mention of her father during her Grammys speech, her mom Tish and her stepfather Dominic were both present at the awards ceremony, with the Prison Break star sharing a gushing tribute to the popstar on Instagram.
‘A [new] experience for me for sure…. Sharing the moment with the wife,’ he wrote alongside an image of himself and Tish behind-the-scenes at the awards show.
‘@tishcyruspurcell and her beautiful daughter @mileycyrus who’s up for “a thousand awards”… such an extraordinary talent.
‘To the hottest woman on earth, my stunningly beautiful wife. What would we all do without you? Humbled to be around you both. Love u.’
As for the rest of their six children, the insider said that all of ‘kids have chosen sides’ but ‘friends are hoping the rift doesn’t last forever.’
Earlier this month, Tish revealed she had a ‘complete psychological breakdown’ in the wake of her split from Billy Ray.
During an interview on Alex Cooper’s Call Her Daddy podcast, the star detailed the end of her marriage to longtime husband amid the COVID-19 pandemic.
‘It was so crazy, my two biggest fears in life were being alone and my mom passing away. And I had one month of a complete psychological breakdown,’ she recalled.

The whole process had sent her entire world into a tailspin, she explained, as she detailed what an incredibly hard time it was for her.
Tish explained: ‘It was the worst thing, it was not good… Kind of pushed the mom thing under the rug, and then the divorce thing came.
‘I could not eat, I could not sleep, I could not stop crying. I don’t have my mom, and then I don’t have my husband that has been my husband for 30 years. Like I’m scared.’
She also said that she pushed her now ex-husband into doing Hannah Montana with daughter, Miley, so their ‘family could be together.’
In regards to the split and his relationship with his kids following the divorce, Billy Ray told People, ‘Everyone knew that that relationship was over a long time ago. Everybody’s turning the page. It’s been a lot, but everyone knew that it was time for a change.’
Billy has also since moved on following the divorce from Tish, and married Australian singer, Firerose, late last year in October during an ‘ethereal celebration of love.’
The ceremony was held two months after Tish and Dominic said ‘I do’ in August.
In the caption of the joint post with his new wife, Billy sweetly penned, ’10/10/23 will always be the beautiful, joyous day that our two souls united as one in holy matrimony.’
Cyrus expressed, ‘It was the most perfect, ethereal celebration of love we could have ever imagined.’
Earlier this month, Tish (seen on her birthday with Dominic last year) revealed she had a ‘complete psychological breakdown’ in the wake of her split from Billy Ray
‘For both of us to hear the preacher say, “Billy Ray and Firerose Cyrus… I now pronounce you husband and wife” that was the sacred moment our new forever began. Long Live Love!’
The two notably collaborated on the track called, New Day, which was released in 2021 and the pair also performed the song together on a number of talk shows.
Cyrus and Firerose also worked on the track, Plans, which they sang together on Good Morning America last month in September.
In August 2022, Billy proposed to Firerose, however, he didn’t confirm their engagement until later that same year in November.
