Trace Cyrus penned an open letter on Instagram to express his concern for his estranged country star dad following his disastrous performance at Trump's inauguration, writing, "You’re not healthy Dad & everyone is noticing it."

If you were put off by country star Billy Ray Cyrus's performance at Donald Trump's inauguration, you are not alone—Cyrus's son Trace is sincerely concerned by his father's latest chapter.

Following Cyrus's disastrous performance at the even, Trace took to social media to write an open letter to his estranged father to say that he and his siblings Noah and, of course, Miley, are "genuinely worried" about their father.


In the letter, posted to Instagram, Trace Cyrus urged his father to get help for what he seemed to imply is a substance abuse problem.

In the post, Trace wrote that he himself recently got sober and urged his father to reach out.

"We haven’t talked in a while but I’m over a year and half clean from alcohol. Guess what? I feel amazing."
"I don’t know what you’re struggling with exactly but I think I have a pretty good idea & I’d love to help you if you would open up and receive the help."

Trace also seemed to confirm long-circulating rumors that Cyrus is estranged from his children, writing:

"Me and the girls have been genuinely worried about you for years but you’ve pushed all of us away."

He added that he, Miley and Noah are "genuinely concerned" about their father and "barely recognize" him anymore.

"We are all hanging on to memories of the man we once knew & hoping for the day he returns. You’re not healthy Dad & everyone is noticing it.”

Cyrus' performance was widely criticized after the "Achy Breaky Heart" singer sounded hoarse and seemed out of sorts amid what appeared to be multiple technical difficulties.

On social media, people found Trace Cyrus's post about his dad heartbreaking.






For his part, Cyrus claimed in his own Instagram post that his Liberty Ball performance was an "honor," and blamed the performance issues on technical difficulties.

Onstage, Cyrus also compared himself to Carrie Underwood, who also suffered technical difficulties and was said to be furious about the way they affected her performance.

GOP Senator Gets Blunt Reality Check After Comparing Trump Tariff 'Pain' To Home Renovation

Montana Republican Senator Tim Sheehy was criticized after he tried to compare the "short-term pain" of President Donald Trump's tariffs to home renovation, a claim so ridiculous that CNN's Kaitlan Collins quickly pushed back on the analogy.

Trump has repeatedly referred to April 2 as “Liberation Day,” pledging to impose tariffs—taxes on imports—to reduce U.S. reliance on foreign goods. He has framed these tariffs as “reciprocal,” aiming to match the duties other nations place on American exports.

Liberal Wisconsin Judge Calls Out Elon Musk In Victory Speech—And It's Everything

Liberal judge Susan Crawford called out billionaire Elon Musk in her victory speech after winning a seat on the Wisconsin Supreme Court, basking in successfully beating her Republican opponent Brad Schimel and ensuring that the nonpartisan court’s narrow 4-3 liberal majority remains intact despite Musk's efforts to sway the race.

Musk fueled the high-stakes race, having poured more than $20 million into supporting Schimel, according to state campaign records. That includes $3 million to the state Republican Party—$2 million of which was donated just last week. Due to state election laws, large contributions must be funneled through political parties before reaching candidates.
