Billy Ray Cyrus accuses ex Firerose of physical abuse and denies ruining her career

Although Billy Ray admitted that he was “certainly vocal, frustrated and angry” with Firerose, his filing alleged that “it is the plaintiff who has in fact been abused… Not just verbally and emotionally by [Firerose]but also PHYSICALLY abused by [Firerose].”

The country star again pointed to an alleged love note in which Firerose begged the country star to reconcile: “If [Billy Ray] was indeed as insulting as [Firerose] claims, it is baffling to try to explain why, upon leaving the home [Billy Ray’s] premarital residence, [Firerose] Would leave [Billy Ray] a handwritten note and then send him a text message saying in her words, “I’m sorry” and “please give me a chance to make this right.” I can explain everything, but I need you on my side. ”

Billy Ray also denied Firerose’s accusation that he tried to ruin her career, costing her $415,000 in scheduled concerts and a movie deal with Hallmark, arguing that she had “absolutely not had a meaningful career in the music industry before meeting him ” and that “it was clear that the termination of the relationship between the parties would result in the parties not performing the shows.
