Billy Ray Divorce

Billy Ray Divorce

Billy Ray Cyrus said he is calling off his divorce in an attempt to rebuild his broken family, People magazine reported Thursday.

"I've dropped the divorce," Cyrus, 49, said in an interview on "The View" that will air Friday, according to the magazine.
"I want to put my family back together … Things are the best they've ever been," he continued.
Cyrus and his wife, Leticia "Tish" Cyrus, announced in October they were divorcing after 17 years of marriage. The couple have five children together, including the superstar singer and actress Miley.

"I feel like I got my Miley back. I feel like we're the daddy and daughter we were before 'Hannah Montana,'" he added about his 18-year-old daughter and co-star on the now-ended Disney sitcom.

Cyrus also responded to previous comments he made about his daughter's Disney success being the cause of his family's turmoil -- referring in particular to a GQ interview when he said, "The damn show destroyed my family."
