"Look at that," Cyrus says in the since-deleted clip (via Whiskey Riff). "Oh my gosh, chunks of hail falling from the sky. It is a tornado. You mentioned blackout, and here it comes."
Cyrus reportedly lives in a $5 million home in Music City. Cyrus was born in Kentucky. He currently lives in the home he previously shared with his former wife, Tish Cyrus, whom he divorced in 2022. While it's not clear where he lives now, he used to live in Hendersonville, just outside of Nashville, where Diplo used to deliver food to Cyrus.
"I did deliver also to Billy Ray Cyrus," Diplo reveals on Watch What Happens Live!. "He also lived in Hendersonville. It was the only Chinese restaurant in that little suburb of Nashville."
Billy Ray Cyrus' Romance With Elizabeth Hurley
Cyrus might still be clearing the damage from the recent storm, but fortunately, other aspects of his life are going quite well. Cyrus recently went public with his relationship with actress Elizabeth Hurley. The two originally met while filming the 2022 holiday film, Christmas in Paradise.
"We did very few scenes together, but the couple times we were in the same scene there was a chemistry there," Cyrus recalls on The Ty Bentli Show.. "We just laughed, and it was at a time I wasn't laughing a lot."
Cyrus and Hurley didn't speak for two years after the movie. But when he was going through a tough spot, it was Hurley who reached out.
"I felt like, 'Wow, can life get any harder? Can it get any tougher?' For me, at a certain point it was like, you can't get knocked down any flatter than laying on your back when life is kicking you," recalls Cyrus. "And in this moment... a friend reached out."
Once they started talking again, sparks flew, and Cyrus is now completely smitten with Hurley, calling her "so brilliant."
"She's a very smart businesswoman," he boasts, comparing her to Dolly Parton. "If you can laugh together, you can make it through everything."
