Billy Ray Cyrus is in the midst of a messy divorce drama as he accuses his wife, Firerose, of making unauthorized credit card charges totaling almost $97,000 on his business American Express card. He claims that Firerose overcharged the account without his permission, stating that he never gave her access to his cards or accounts. However, Firerose disputes these allegations and asserts that she has been allowed to use his credit cards since moving in with him in 2022.
In response to Billy Ray’s claims, Firerose argues that there is no emergency in this situation and that she should be permitted to continue using his money for personal and household expenses, as well as legal fees, while they are still married. She maintains that she has only sustained her lifestyle and that Billy is mistaken about the extent of her access to his financial accounts.
The law firm representing Firerose has stated that they returned $45,000 to Billy, intending to charge her only $5,000 in a transaction that Billy believed was $50,000. This financial dispute adds another layer of complexity to the ongoing divorce proceedings, where Billy filed for an annulment of his marriage to Firerose, citing “fraud” as the reason.
Despite the love that once existed between Billy Ray and Firerose, their relationship has taken a contentious turn, with legal battles over financial matters intensifying. The couple got engaged in August 2022 and married in October 2023, following Billy’s divorce from his longtime spouse, Tish Cyrus.
As the details of this dispute continue to unfold, it remains uncertain how the allegations of unauthorized credit card charges will impact the broader divorce and annulment proceedings between Billy Ray and Firerose. The complexity of their financial disagreements underscores the challenges that can arise when untangling shared assets in the aftermath of a marital breakdown.
