As Tish and Billy Ray head to divorce court over her alleged affair with rocker Bret, the two are trying to get the support of the most valuable thing they have — Miley!

Tish and Billy Ray Cyrus‘ divorce after 17 years of marriage is splitting their family in two, and forcing superstar daughter Miley Cyrus to choose sides! It appears however that Tish’s rumored affair with Bret Michaels may have helped Miley to choose which parent she will be lending her support to. An insider tells Star, “This whole situation has hurt Miley’s relationship with her mother — she’s definitely going to side with her father.”

Sources say Tish and Bret grew close when he and Miley recorded the song “Nothing to Lose” in February and Tish was soon stopping by the studio to see Bret, “in tight jeans and revealing T-shirts.”

The Cyrus’ estate is said to be worth an estimated $150 million and there is little to no doubt both Tish and Billy will be doing everything in their power to get what they deem their fair share. It seems, however, whoever has Miley’s support will likely have the upper hand.
