Billy Ray Cyrus Just Wants Miley Happy

In an interview with Parade magazine, Billy Ray Cyrus acknowledged that fame can be dangerous. With all the turmoil that he has been faced with lately, his family's misfortunes have seemed to dominate the headlines. Billy Ray called off his divorce with his wife, Tish, in March of this year. "I think it's important to stay focused on where you wanna go… And there will be a lot of distractions out there. That's why it's all the more important to stay focused on what you believe in". His public estrangement with daughter, Miley Cyrus also gave unwanted attention to his family woes. With all that behind them , the family is spending quality time with each other and trying to regain the closeness that has held them together in previous years. Said Billy Ray, "My wish for Miley is to be happy, to love what she's doing… As long as she's happy and loving making music--and I know she loves acting--that's all that matters. I pray the same for Miley as I pray for my other kids--that they live their life with purpose knowing that it's about giving back and finding out what you can do in this world to hopefully make it a better place". With her upcoming global tour and reuniting with her ex, Liam Hemsworth, hopefully her father's wishes are finally coming true for 18 year old Miley.
