Miley Cyrus makes light of dating younger men with mom and sister
During the 1 hour and 36-minute episode, the trio bonded over their similar relationship age gaps, with Brandi playfully pointing out, 'What does it say about the three of us that, technically, we are all cougars?' prompting laughter from Miley and Tish.
Miley, 32, is currently dating musician Maxx Morando, 26, whom she's been linked to since late 2021. Brandi, 38, is in a relationship with Matt Southcombe, 36, while Tish, 58, married actor Dominic Purcell, 55, in 2023. The women took the age difference in stride, joking about the generational quirks that come with dating younger partners.
Miley also opened up about her own experience with the age gap in her relationship, referencing her November 2023 Harper's Bazaar interview. 'He looks at life really differently than I do,' she shared. 'He grew up with a laptop. I had a desktop computer that I shared with my brothers and sisters.'
Beyond the laughs, Miley's appearance also served to subtly shut down ongoing rumours of a rift between her and her mother. The episode marked a rare and heartfelt on-air moment for the Cyrus women, offering a glimpse into their close-knit relationship and their ability to keep things real—and funny.

Jenna Ortega rocks bleached eyebrows at 'Wednesday' Season 2 premiere in London
Jenna Ortega unveiled a striking new look at the London premiere of Wednesday season two on July 30. The 22-year-old actress arrived on the red carpet with bleached eyebrows that matched her sheer, snakeskin-inspired dress by Ashi Studio, giving the illusion of having no eyebrows at all. Standing beside her co-stars Catherine Zeta-Jones, Fred Armisen, and Emma Myers, Ortega completed the look with a maroon lip and her signature dark hair styled into a relaxed ponytail. Her eyebrow transformation immediately drew attention, adding a Gothic edge to her already unconventional red carpet presence. The new appearance aligns with her ongoing efforts to reflect the eerie tone of Wednesday, where she plays the iconic Addams family character. 'I definitely feel like I have a bit more Gothic taste than I did when I was a teenager,' Ortega told Harper's Bazaar in May. 'I've always been into dark things or been fascinated by them, but I was a Disney kid, and the whole thing is being bubbly and kind and overly sweet.' Reflecting on the challenges of portraying a teenage character while in her twenties, Ortega added, 'It's like how you're dressed in the schoolgirl costume. There's just something about it that's very patronising.'

Winona Ryder reveals why she was dropped from a Marlon Brando film
Winona Ryder is reflecting on how one of her most iconic early roles nearly ended her career before it began. In a recent interview with Elle UK, the actress revealed that her decision to star in the 1988 cult classic Heathers cost her a major role opposite screen legend Marlon Brando — a consequence that industry insiders warned her about. As a teenager, Ryder was advised by her team not to take the role of Veronica Sawyers, the sharp-tongued protagonist in Heathers, a dark comedy about a murderous high school clique. 'My agent at the time literally got down on her knees begging me not to do it,' Ryder previously told Harper's Bazaar. 'She said, 'You're going to destroy any chance of a career.'' Despite the warnings, Ryder took the role — and quickly saw fallout. She was dropped from the 1990 crime comedy The Freshman, which starred Brando and Matthew Broderick. 'They thought it was making fun of teen suicide. They were deeply offended and, yeah, they revoked the offer,' she said. 'I'm like, 'I can't work with Marlon Brando?' I had to stand my ground. I wasn't gonna apologize.' Heathers was polarizing at the time but ultimately became a cult favorite and a defining moment in Ryder's career. 'I never turn off Heathers if it's on. I know it basically by heart,' she said, expressing no regrets. Producer Denise Di Novi told Variety that Ryder was 'very brave and unusual' to take on such a controversial role, describing her as 'an amazing 15-year-old' who became obsessed with the script. Though The Freshman was a missed opportunity, Ryder's gamble on Heathers proved to be a bold move that solidified her reputation as a fearless and unconventional talent.

Tish Cyrus rushed into marriage, and Brandi was terrified she'd regret it
Brandi Cyrus is opening up about the concerns she had when her mother, Tish Cyrus, quickly moved on from her marriage to Billy Ray Cyrus and wed Prison Break star Dominic Purcell. On the latest episode of the Boyfriend Material podcast, Brandi told her mom she was initially 'scared' by how fast things moved. 'We just got out of one marriage, why are we jumping into another?' she recalled thinking. Tish and Billy Ray divorced in 2022 after nearly three decades together. While Brandi, 38, says she did express caution at the time, she ultimately sees that it worked out for the best. 'You didn't listen to me,' she joked, but acknowledged that Tish seems happy with Purcell. Tish, 58, married the actor in August 2023, just over a year after confirming the relationship. Miley Cyrus was reportedly the most encouraging about her mom's new relationship, a fact Brandi playfully teased on the show. 'I feel like you like taking your own dating advice,' she told Tish. Despite early hesitation, Brandi was one of three children who attended Tish's wedding, along with siblings Miley and Trace. Noah Cyrus, who was at odds with Tish at the time, did not attend but has since been working on mending their relationship. 'We still need our mommy so bad,' Noah said in an April podcast appearance. The Cyrus family dynamic has seen its share of shifts, with Billy Ray recently separating from Firerose and stepping out with Elizabeth Hurley. Through it all, Tish appears to have found stability, and support from most of her kids, in her new chapter with Purcell.
