Actor Dominic Purcell had a connection to the Cyrus family before marrying Tish Cyrus.

Tish began dating Purcell in 2022. They married last August, but according to a source who spoke to Fox News Digital, Purcell had a casual relationship with Tish's youngest daughter, Noah, before getting together with his now-wife.

As the source explained, Noah and Purcell were seeing each other every now and then, but by the time Tish started seeing him, they had cut off contact completely. She was aware of his previous relationship with Noah when she decided to pursue her own romance with him.

Tish appeared to address the Noah and Purcell rumors that began circulating earlier this week on her podcast, “Sorry We're Stoned.” She co-hosts the show with her daughter Brandi Cyrus, and at one point during the show they asked guest Wiz Khalifa to name the craziest rumor he had ever heard about himself.

He didn't have an answer, but Brandi took the opportunity to tease Tish and asked, “Mother, do you want to answer that?”

“I don’t think so…” Tish began before trailing off. Brandi asked again if there were any crazy rumors about her and she said, “I don't think so.”

“I feel like some crazy things happened,” Brandi stressed, while Tish acknowledged that there are rumors about her, “but we're not going to talk about it.”

The question came as part of a game the two play on their podcast: If someone doesn't answer a question, that person has to “token.”

“Oh, I smoke,” Tish said adamantly. “I absolutely agree.”

Rumors about the alleged problems between Tish and Noah date back to Tish's wedding to Purcell. Noah and her brother Braison were not present and instead posted a photo of the two together at Walmart. She wore a Billy Ray Cyrus shirt. Billy Ray and Tish divorced in 2022 after nearly 30 years of marriage.

Fox News Digital's source suggested that Noah's absence had something to do with her previous relationship with Purcell.
