Miley Cyrus has rubbished talk of a feud with her parents

Miley wrote in a statement on her Instagram Story: "I rarely comment on rumours, but my mama and I are too tight for anything to ever come between us.

"She's my best friend. Like a lot of moms, she doesn't know how to work her phone and somehow unfollowed me - simple, coincidental and uninteresting."

Tish also claimed that she had unfollowed the 'Flowers' hitmaker by mistake after it was brought to her attention by a fan.

She wrote on the social media platform: "I didn't. Idk what happened lol. I have no idea how that happened but it's fixed now [pink heart emoji]."

Tish, who has managed Miley's career since she found fame as a teenager on the TV series 'Hannah Montana', added that she is as "close" as ever to her daughter.

She wrote in a separate post: "I would never unfollow Miley, her and I are as close as we've ever been. Period. Little [heart] emoji @mileycyrus."

Miley also discussed her relationship with her father Billy Ray, 63, and said the pair are in a good place at present despite the "challenges" of the past.

The 'Wrecking Ball' singer said: "My dad and I have had our challenges over the years.

"Now, in my 30s, family is my priority above all else. I'm at peace knowing bridges have been built and time has done a lot of healing."

Miley added: "Grateful for the good health and love that flows through my family."

Meanwhile, the star previously insisted that it was her mother who had "raised" her, although the 'Achy Breaks Heart' singer had considerable influence on her music career.

She said on 'My Next Guess Needs No Introduction' with chat show host David Letterman last year: "Without my dad, I know - I mean, not just literally I wouldn't be sitting in this chair, I wouldn't exist - but I would not, who I am as a person, it wouldn't exist. Because my dad, as a creative and as an artist in the way that his brain works, has always made me feel safer in my own mind because we're very similar in our ideas.

"So I think a lot of his perspective on reality and on life, I've inherited from him, more so than the way that I was raised - which really, my mom raised me."
