Trace Cyrus has expressed deep concern for his father, country music star Billy Ray Cyrus, following his recent performance at President Donald Trump’s Liberty Ball. In an emotional social media post, Trace shared a nostalgic photo of the two and pleaded for his father to reenter the lives of his grandchildren.
Reflecting on their past, Trace reminisced, “From my earliest memories, I always thought you were the coolest person ever. The day you adopted me was the happiest day of my life. But now, the person I looked up to is hardly recognizable.” He voiced his worry about Billy Ray’s health, stating, “It’s clear to everyone that you are not well.”
Trace further reached out, reminding his father of his daughter’s yearning for his presence. “Noah wants you in her life, and she deserves that,” he wrote. In a heartfelt appeal, he stated, “We all hold on to memories of the man we once knew. We are praying for you.”
During the Liberty Ball, Billy Ray performed several hits, including “Old Town Road,” but faced technical issues that prompted him to joke with the audience about his performance. Fans quickly took to social media to voice their concerns, with some calling the performance one of the most awkward moments in entertainment.
Despite the challenges, Billy Ray later affirmed his joy in performing, emphasizing, “I wouldn’t have missed the honor of playing this event. I was there because President Trump invited me.” He concluded on a positive note, sharing that the event was a blast and that he values entertaining his fans, regardless of the circumstances.
Billy Ray Cyrus is a father to five children, including Trace and Miley Cyrus, all of whom have expressed their love for him amidst growing concerns for his well-being.
