Miley Cyrus Clears the Air on That Awkward Unfollow Drama with her Mom

May 12, 2025

Mother’s Day weekend almost got messy in the Cyrus fam — but don’t worry, it’s not what you think. Fans went into full FBI mode when they noticed that Tish Cyrus, 58, had mysteriously unfollowed Miley Cyrus on Instagram. Cue the feud rumors. Cue the chaos. Cue the group chats.

But Miley wasted no time shutting it all down.

“I rarely comment on rumors,” she wrote on her IG story, “but my mama and I are too tight for anything to ever come between us.” 👏

She then went full daughter-mode and explained the real reason behind the unfollow:

“She doesn’t know how to work her phone.” 💀

That’s right. Turns out, it was just a classic Boomer moment — accidental taps, weird settings, algorithm sabotage… you know how it is. Miley called the whole thing “coincidental and uninteresting,” which is the most iconic way to dismiss drama we’ve seen all year

Even Mama Tish chimed in herself, saying,

“I would never unfollow Miley. Her and I are as close as we’ve always been.”
And yes, it’s all fixed now. Crisis averted.

But Wait — There’s More: Miley Also Spoke on Her Dad 👀

In the same post, Miley gave fans something much deeper — an update on where she stands with her dad, Billy Ray Cyrus.

Let’s rewind: Miley and Billy Ray famously unfollowed each other back in late 2022, right around the time he started dating (and later married) Aussie singer Firerose. The internet speculated a full-on family feud.

But in 2025 Miley fashion — mature, grounded, healing-core — she shared:

“My dad and I have had our challenges over the years. Now, in my thirties, family is my priority above all else. I’m at peace knowing bridges have been built and time has done a lot of healing.”

Okay Miley, go off with the emotional growth 💅

TL;DR:

📱 The unfollow was an accident.
👩‍👧 Miley and Tish = still BFFs.
🎸 Miley and Billy Ray = rebuilding.
💖 The Cyrus clan = healing and thriving (mostly).

One thing about Miley? She will shut the internet up with class and chaos in one breath. We love to see it.

Now go hug your mom (and maybe help her update her phone settings).
