Cyrus Calls Off Divorce, Gets His Family Back
Country star Billy Ray Cyrus has called off his divorce and reunited with his wife TISH.
The Achy Breaky Heart singer filed legal papers to end the 17-year union in October (10) and he has since blamed the success of his daughter Miley's Disney show Hannah Montana for "destroying" his family.
But Cyrus has been working hard to repair the family fall-out since his GQ magazine comments caused a tabloid storm - and he now reveals things are back on track with his wife and his kids.
In an appearance on U.S. talk show The View, due to air on Friday (18Mar11), the 49 year old says, "I've dropped the divorce. I want to put my family back together… Things are the best they've ever been."
And the singer insists he's also made amends with his superstar daughter Miley Cyrus, after lashing out at her for a string of scandals surrounding her personal life - including gossip about her love interests and outrage over video footage showing her smoking a bong.
He adds, "I feel like I got my Miley back. I feel like we're the daddy and daughter we were before Hannah Montana."
