Billy Ray Cyrus accuses Firerose of overcharging his credit card

Billy Ray Cyrus has accused estranged wife, Firerose, of overcharging his credit card – shortly after filing for divorce last month in May following seven months of marriage.

The Achy Breaky Heart hitmaker, 62, has asked for an annulment while citing both ‘irreconcilable differences’ and ‘inappropriate marital conduct’ as the reasons for the separation.

In new court documents obtained by TMZ on Friday, Cyrus claimed in a separate filing that Firerose made 37 unauthorized charges on his American Express card totaling a whopping $96,986.05 between May 23 and June 7.

Billy has requested for a temporary restraining order to prevent the Australian-born singer, 35, from having anymore access to his bank accounts and credit cards.

He further claimed that his estranged wife – who has since denied the allegations – made the charges without his consent, and added he never permitted her to have access to his cards.

In the court documents, Cyrus added that both he and Firerose did not file joint tax returns to further back up his side. 

The star has requested that a judge approve an ’emergency motion’ to halt Firerose from having access to his accounts and cards, while asking for reimbursement on the 37 unauthorized charges. 

However, Billy’s estranged wife has also filed her own court documents and denied the allegations. 

The singer claimed she always had access to his credit cards – which began when she moved in with the Hannah Montana star in 2022. Firerose also added that she was never given a limit in regards to what she could charge. 

According to TMZ, she has also claimed she should be allowed to have continuous access to Billy’s money ‘for her personal and household expenses’ and ‘attorney fees’ while the two are still married. 

Cyrus also claimed that one of the charges included $50,000 on his credit card statement. 

But the law firm representing Firerose claimed that it has already returned $45,000 – adding that $5,000 was only meant to be charged instead of $50,000 at the time of the transaction. 

Also on Friday, a source told Us Weekly in another update following the pair’s shock divorce that Cyrus had accused his estranged wife of cheating before filing for an annulment of their marriage. 

‘Billy and Firerose were always fighting and the relationship was intense and toxic at times,’ the insider expressed to the outlet. ‘Billy accused Firerose of cheating and it was the final straw for him.’ 

According to the source, his daughters Miley and Noah, as well as ‘their siblings never understood the relationship and why Billy married her so abruptly. No one approved of the marriage.’ 

The Flowers songstress ‘is hopeful this will give some peace to the family and she thinks this is a good step in the right direction for him.’ 

Earlier this week on Tuesday, new details surrounding the divorce filing came to light. TMZ reported that the singer claimed both irreconcilable differences and ‘inappropriate marital conduct’ were the reasons behind their split.

Additionally, Cyrus is requesting an annulment, alleging the marriage was entered into fraudulently. 

He said their date of separation was on May 22, 2024 in the divorce documents, which were filed last month.

In court documents obtained by E!, Cyrus said he is seeking an annulment as ‘he gave consent to marriage based on Fraud by the Wife, that had he known he would not have entered into the bonds of matrimony.’

TMZ also reported that it appears Billy wanted Firerose, 34, out of their home by May 24. He is willing to pay as much as $500 a night over the course of 10 days for her lodging costs.

Once the 10 day period has lapsed, he is willing to pay $5,000 a month for her to acquire a suitable new home in Tennessee.

Billy is prepared to make the payments over the course of 90 days or once their divorce is officially finalized, whichever happens first. The payments must be made on the first of the month.

DailyMail.com has requested comment from Billy’s representative.

The singer wed his Australian wife back in October 2023 but filed for divorce in late May – per TMZ. She was his third wife – he was married to Cindy Smith from 1986 until 1991 and Miley Cyrus’ mom Tish from 1993-2022.

The divorce case notes there are no minor children between them.

Billy and Firerose had previously gushed about their romance and the unexpected way they met and eventually got married.

On an episode of The Kelly Clarkson Show last year, Clarkson asked the couple about the story of how they met, with Firerose saying: ‘It’s actually a funny story because I was walking out of an audition on Sunset Gala in Hollywood.’

The couple met each other on a Los Angeles street while Billy was with his dog and Firerose was coming out of an audition.

‘[He] was the most beautiful German shepherd you’ve ever seen,’ said Firerose. ‘He was tapped into some divine purpose because we were, at the time, just friends and all these years later…that was 14 years ago. All these years later, we just got married.’

Their wedding took place over a year after they initially announced their engagement, and almost two years after Billy Ray’s divorce from Tish Cyrus.

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 song, Plans, which they sang together on Good Morning America in September.

In August 2022, Billy proposed to Firerose, however, he didn’t confirm their engagement until later that same year in November. He is now embroiled in a family feud with his daughter Miley.

The Grammy winner shared a throwback photo of himself with daughter Miley along with a poem he wrote for her earlier last week amid a reported rift.

‘One of my best memories ever: @cma Fest, back when it was Fan Fair,’ Billy Ray started in the caption. ‘That’s @mileycyrus and me, surrounded by thousands of incredible fans at the fairgrounds.’

He held Miley, now 31, as a baby in the photo, which was framed along with two hand-written pages of poetry.

‘The next day, someone handed me this picture, and I wrote that poem right then on the bus,’ he recounted.

Tish tied the knot with Dominic Purcell in an intimate Malibu ceremony last August, with Miley as her maid of honor. Noah, 24, and son Braison Cyrus, 29, were notably absent from the nuptials, fueling further speculation of a feud at the time.

In February, reports surfaced that Noah was dating Purcell, 54, when Tish ‘started pursuing him,’ and she ‘was aware’ he was with her daughter.

‘The turmoil between Noah and Tish goes far beyond [what people think],’ a source told Us Weekly. ‘Noah is very distraught over Tish stealing Dominic from her.’

Another source has since told DailyMail.com that Noah fabricated the story about dating Purcell.

‘Noah never dated Dominic and they were not together,’ said the insider. ‘She is delusional to think otherwise and is trying to create a narrative that will paint her as a victim.’

Billy Ray and Tish also share daughter Brandi, 37, and son Trace, 35, her children from a previous relationship that he adopted. Additionally, he’s father to son Christopher Cody, 32.
