An Arizona Woman Sued Billy Ray Cyrus – And Subpoenaed Taylor Swift & Hillary Clinton – Because She Claims She’s The Biological Mother Of Miley Cyrus
What in the world?
Things seem to be going well for both Miley Cyrus and her father, Billy Ray Cyrus, right now. Despite some family drama earlier in the year, and a bizarre performance from Billy Ray during President Donald Trump’s inaugural ball, it seems the “Achy Breaky Heart” singer has found happiness in his new relationship with Elizabeth Hurley. Meanwhile, Miley recently announced her engagement to longtime boyfriend Maxx Morando.
But a bizarre lawsuit filed by an Arizona woman claimed that SHE was actually the biological mother of Miley Cyrus – and claimed Billy Ray had breached the agreement they made when Miley was born.
The lawsuit was actually filed back in May in Davidson County Court here in Nashville by a woman named Jayme Lee. In the complaint, which has been obtained by Whiskey Riff, Lee claims that she gave birth to Miley, who was born on November 23, 1992, when she was only 12 years old. (She also claims that Billy Ray is not Miley’s father).
Lee claims that she entered into an agreement with Billy Ray to adopt the child, but that she would be allowed to choose Miley’s name and would continue to be able to see the child while serving as her nanny and piano teacher. But she claims that Billy Ray then took the child and kept her from Lee, preventing her from having a relationship with Miley.
The woman sued Billy Ray for several causes of action, including breach of contract, intentional infliction of emotional distress, fraud, and unlawful interference with parental rights. And she was asking the court to enter an order restoring her right to have a relationship with the child, while also ordering Billy Ray to pay her damages.
In a motion filed in June, Lee asked the court to order all parties, including Miley and Billy Ray, to undergo a DNA test to prove that Lee is Miley’s biological mother. She claims that, prior to Billy Ray adopting Miley, several celebrities were approached about taking the child, including Sharon Osbourne, Hillary Clinton, Neil Patrick Harris and Julia Roberts. She then says that her grandfather drove her to Nashville, where she met Dolly Parton at the Grand Ole Opry, and it was Dolly who suggested that Billy Ray adopt the child.
Lee claims that while trying to get visitation with her child in 1992, she was “brutally attacked” and only recently remembered that she was Miley’s mother.
Things got even weirder when Lee filed a motion in November asking the court to add Dolly Parton to the lawsuit, claiming that she assisted Billy Ray in covering up his scheme to take Miley away from her biological mother. And a few days later, she sent a host of subpoenas to various high-profile celebrities, including Sharon Osbourne, Eminem, Dr. Dre, Neil Patrick Harris, Julia Roberts, Hillary Clinton and Taylor Swift. (In her subpoena to Swift, Lee requests that she provide “the scrapbook made by Jayme for Miley when she was 12 – if you have access to it”).
Lee also filed a lawsuit back in November in the federal court in her home state of Arizona against a wide range of law enforcement agencies and mental health facilities, claiming that she is Miley’s biological mother and that Miley was sex trafficked to President Donald Trump. She claims that she was unlawfully arrested and placed on an involuntary mental health hold for attempting to report her allegations to the police (at least that’s the best I can figure out from reading the complaint – as you can probably imagine, it’s a little tough to decipher).
Well Billy Ray finally filed a motion to dismiss the case in Nashville earlier this month, claiming that the lawsuit was “clearly brought for the purposes of harassing” the singer and wasting the court’s time. His attorneys obviously deny the woman’s claims, but argue that the woman has no legal claim because of state law that requires a lawsuit to establish parentage be filed within 3 years of a child turning 18 – and Miley is well beyond 18 years old. He also claims that her allegations are past the statute of limitations for any “case” she claims to have.
And as you can imagine, the court agreed with Billy Ray, dismissing the lawsuit with prejudice last Friday – meaning it can’t be filed again, and Billy Ray is still legally the father of Miley Cyrus.
What a wild ride. But man, I think the only evidence he needed to submit to prove that his ex-wife Tish is actually Miley’s mother would be a picture of them together.
