Billy Ray Cyrus wants to cut ties with Firerose in more ways than one. The “Achy Breaky Heart” singer has requested a temporary restraining order against his Australian bride, alleging that she racked up more than $96,000 worth of purchases on his personal and business credit cards. He filed his emergency motion in Williamson County Court in Tennessee last week, according to legal documents reviewed by The Times.
Cyrus is asking the court to keep Firerose (real name Johanna Rosie Hodges) and her team “from the unauthorized use” of his credit cards and financial accounts. The singer, father of Miley Cyrus, also requests that his estranged wife of less than a year reimburse him for all “unauthorized” funds obtained from his business card. A legal representatives for Cyrus did not immediately respond to The Times’ request for comment.
Firerose’s attorney did not comment. Cyrus, 62, and Firerose, 34, married in October after a year-long engagement but separated last month. The country star filed his complaint for an annulment on May 23, alleging fraud, according to legal documents.
A day later, the spouses agreed that Firerose would vacate Cyrus’ home and that he would provide her “some financial support” for 90 days, or until their marriage was officially over. Last week, Cyrus’ management learned that Firerose had allegedly used the “Hannah Montana” star’s American Express card for 37 “unauthorized” charges from May 23 to June 7 and totaling $9.
