When the desperate search for Jurek's last missing victim forces Jonah to send his adopted daughter, FBI Agent Saga Bauer (Beetz), up against Jurek, how far will Jonah go?

Miley Cyrus Says She ‘Owned a Lot' of Mom Tish's Pain Throughout Marriage to Billy Ray

Miley Cyrus is opening up about where she stands with her parents, exes Billy Ray and Tish Cyrus, following years of estrangement and alleged drama. 'As I've gotten older, I'm respecting my parents as individuals instead of as parents — because my mom's really loved my dad for her whole life, and I think being married to someone in the music industry and not being a part of it is obviously really hard,' Miley, 32, said on the Saturday, May 31, episode of 'The Interview' podcast from The New York Times. 'I think I took on some of my mom's hurt as my own because it hurt her more than it hurt me as an adult, and so I owned a lot of her pain.' Billy Ray, 63, and Tish, 58, were married from 1993 to 2022, during which they welcomed Miley and her siblings Braison, 30, and Noah, 25. (Billy Ray also adopted Tish's two eldest children from a previous relationship, Brandi and Trace, and is father to son Christopher, whom he shares with Kristin Luckey.) In the years since the 'Achy Breaky Heart' singer and Tish divorced, the family fractured with Miley, in particular, staying closer to her mom. In her Times profile, Miley confirmed that she is no longer estranged from Billy Ray. Miley Cyrus Addresses Relationships With Mom Tish and Dad Billy Ray After Feud Speculation 'I think timing is everything,' Miley said, adding that she is glad both of her parents have moved on. 'Now that my mom is so in love with my stepdad [Dominic Purcell], who I completely adore, and now that my dad, I see him finding happiness, too — I can love them both as individuals instead of as a parental pairing. I'm being an adult about it.' She added, 'At first it's hard, because the little kid in you reacts before the adult in you can go, 'Yes, that's your dad, but that's just another person that deserves to be in his bliss and to be happy.' My child self has caught up.' Tish married Purcell, 55, in an intimate 2023 ceremony held at Miley's Malibu, California, mansion. Billy Ray, meanwhile, confirmed two years later that he is dating actress Elizabeth Hurley. 'I just try to be more compassionate to my parents, because I hate that for them,' Miley told The Times, referring to the constant attention surrounding Tish and Billy Ray's respective relationships. 'I mostly hate it for my siblings because they didn't choose that kind of highlight on themselves. But for me, I've gotten so used to it that I'm like, 'If this is the symptom — that sometimes we deal with these embarrassing or difficult public opinions — then that's something I'm willing to take to have the life that we have.'' The Something Beautiful singer is also working on her independence. Miley Cyrus Explains How Dad Billy Ray Cyrus' Relationship to Success Is 'Wildly Different' to Hers 'My mom no longer travels with me, because I'm [nearly] 33 years old, and it was getting ridiculous. I never want to detach from my mom because we're so close,' Miley quipped to the outlet. 'I'll get tears in my eyes even talking about her. But if nature plays its course in the way that it does, I will be an individual without my mom at some point, and that used to completely paralyze me.' According to Miley, she now 'mothers' herself in a way that Tish did when she was growing up. 'I don't have my mom with me the way that I used to,' Miley said. 'And now I just go, 'What was it about her that made everything better?' It was safety because I knew any situation that I didn't feel safe in, my mom would get me out of it or make it better. And so now I just imagine what soothed me about her, and then I do it for myself.' Miley and Dad Billy Ray Cyrus' Ups and Downs Over the Years: From 'Hannah Montana' to Now Overall, Miley has found that her fame — eclipsing Billy Ray's own success — 'added a level of complexity' to her family's dynamics. 'I think it would be hard for anybody with a dream to see somebody else achieving theirs in a way that you see for yourself, but I do think love conquered all,' she said. "He can still find the pride in me. But it would be delusional for any of us to think that that doesn't add a level of complication to our already complicated dynamic.' Miley further noted that she 'got rid' of any lingering guilt or shame during EMDR therapy. 'At times in my life, guilt and shame were a driver for me,' the former Disney Channel star recalled. 'I had a hard time accepting that I could suffer because of how blessed I am. I don't think that's actually played too much of a part between me and my dad, though, because I have to have the faith that, like any dad, he would want this for me.'

Billy Ray Cyrus Gushes Over Daughter Miley Cyrus After Putting Estrangement Behind Them

Billy Ray Cyrus shared his pride for daughter Miley Cyrus one month after she confirmed the pair have put their long-running estrangement behind them. Billy Ray, 63, took to Instagram on Sunday, June 1, to praise Miley, 32, sharing his daughter's Instagram Story of the music video for her new track 'Easy Lover.' The 'Achy Breaky Heart' singer wrote over the clip, 'So proud of you Mile!!!' before tagging her and adding colored heart stickers to the post. The proud father also commented on Miley's earlier Instagram grid promotion of the track, from her new album, Something Beautiful, leaving three blazing heart emojis on his daughter's post and "liking" it. Miley Cyrus Says She 'Owned a Lot' of Mom Tish's Pain Throughout Marriage to Billy Ray The PDA comes after Miley revealed where she currently stands with Billy Ray in a May 10 Instagram Story statement. 'My dad and I have had our challenges over the years,' Miley wrote in the statement. 'Now, in my 30s, family is my priority above all else. I'm at peace knowing bridges have been built and time has done a lot of healing.' Hours prior to Miley's statement, Billy Ray posted a photo of himself with Miley and son Braison, 31, as well as Miley's boyfriend, Maxx Morando. (Cyrus is the father of five children — Miley, Braison, Noah, 25, Brandi, 38, and Trace, 36 — whom he shares with ex-wife Tish Cyrus, as well as Christopher, 33, whom he shares with ex Kristin Luckey.) More recently, Miley expanded on the family's reconnection during an interview for The New York Times' 'The Interview' podcast, released on Saturday, May 31. 'As I've gotten older, I'm respecting my parents as individuals instead of as parents — because my mom's really loved my dad for her whole life, and I think being married to someone in the music industry and not being a part of it is obviously really hard,' she said. 'I think I took on some of my mom's hurt as my own because it hurt her more than it hurt me as an adult, and so I owned a lot of her pain.' Billy Ray Cyrus Celebrates Daughter Miley Cyrus on Her Birthday with Sweet Throwback Pics In the years that followed the divorce of Tish, 58, and Billy Ray, the Cyrus family fractured, with Miley remaining close to her mom and supporting her stepfather, Dominic Purcell. 'I think timing is everything,' Miley said, adding that she is glad both of her parents have both moved on given Billy Ray's budding relationship with Elizabeth Hurley. 'Now that my mom is so in love with my stepdad, who I completely adore, and now that my dad, I see him finding happiness, too — I can love them both as individuals instead of as a parental pairing. I'm being an adult about it.' Miley continued, 'At first it's hard, because the little kid in you reacts before the adult in you can go, 'Yes, that's your dad, but that's just another person that deserves to be in his bliss and to be happy.' My child self has caught up.' Tish and Miley's relationship was put under the microscope after it was reported that Tish allegedly unfollowed Miley on social media. Us Weekly confirmed on May 8 that Tish began following her online that day.

Miley Cyrus Says ‘Half' of Her Family Members ‘Weren't Speaking to Each Other' Until Recently

Miley Cyrus' family is finally mending fences after their years-long feud. The 'Wrecking Ball' singer, 32, opened up about her family's 'dark decade' and their road to healing during her appearance on Monica Lewinsky's 'Reclaiming' podcast on Tuesday, January 10. Miley shared that 'half [of her family members] weren't speaking to each other at one point' following dad Billy Ray Cyrus' split from mom Tish Cyrus in 2022. 'We cleaned all that up. That was a really big part of my year this year, was all of my family, putting all of those lines of communication back together,' she added, explaining that she had 'a lot of loyalty' to Tish, 58, 'the way that families do when parents get divorced.' Tish filed for divorce from Billy Ray in April 2022 after 28 years of marriage. In addition to Miley, the pair share son Braison, 31, and daughter Noah, 25. Billy Ray is also a father to son Cody, 33, from his romance with ex Kristin Luckey, and he adopted Tish's two eldest kids, daughter Brandi, 38, and son Trace, 36, after their wedding in 1993. Miley Cyrus Says She 'Owned a Lot' of Mom Tish's Pain Throughout Marriage to Billy Ray Prior to Tish's 2022 divorce filing, Billy Ray had filed for divorce in October 2010, calling off the proceedings the following year to work on their marriage. The former couple split again when Tish filed for divorce in June 2013, but they reconciled and called off the divorce for a second time the following month. After their divorce, Tish moved on with Dominic Purcell in 2023, and another layer of family drama ensued when a source told Us Weekly that Noah, 25, had been seeing the actor, 55, first. Both Noah and Braison, 31, were notably absent from Tish's wedding to Dominic, but the mom and daughter later reunited and have seemingly put the feud behind them. Miley admitted that, by witnessing her parents' on-off relationship unfold and leaving her family's drama untouched for years, she 'watched what happens when you don't clean things up as they're happening. They really do stack, and then all of a sudden you go, 'Oh my god, it's been 10 years, and this is a mess that I barely even know how to start [with]. This is basically emotional hoarding.'' To help mend her family's differences, Miley said she 'busted through the pile that stacked and just [went], 'I'm here, you're here, let's start by having a good time together, and then as we start bringing some happiness and joy into each other's life, then we'll be in a better place to have these conversations.'' However, when asked if her family went through any counseling, Miley said, 'We're so messy, we didn't even do any of that.' The Grammy winner said that it was 'easier' to raise a 'white flag' and show that she was open and ready to talk. Miley, whose ninth album, Something Beautiful, was released on May 30, teased that she plans to sing about her family's feud in an upcoming album that she's already working on. She revealed that one track, 'Secrets,' will be about wanting Billy Ray 'to feel safe enough to tell [her] the things that were damning and damaging to the family.' Miley Cyrus Addresses Relationships With Mom Tish and Dad Billy Ray After Feud Speculation During the May 31 episode of 'The Interview' podcast from The New York Times, Miley confirmed that she and her dad are no longer estranged and reflected on both of her parents moving on after their divorce. (Billy Ray debuted his romance with Elizabeth Hurley on Easter.) 'I think timing is everything,' Miley said. 'Now that my mom is so in love with my stepdad, who I completely adore, and now that my dad, I see him finding happiness, too — I can love them both as individuals instead of as a parental pairing. I'm being an adult about it.' She continued, 'At first it's hard, because the little kid in you reacts before the adult in you can go, 'Yes, that's your dad, but that's just another person that deserves to be in his bliss and to be happy.' My child self has caught up.'
