GRAPHIC WARNING: Tish Cyrus’s new husband Dominic Purcell reveals his gruesome injuries after horrific accident on set
Dominic Purcell shocked his followers on Sunday by sharing a graphic throwback photo of the facial injuries he suffered while filming one of his projects.
The image showed the 54-year-old actor’s face drenched in blood after an iron bar hit him during a shoot, fracturing his skull and shattering his nose.
Purcell, who is married to Miley Cyrus’ mother Tish, insisted the injuries were real and not a makeup job.
‘No, it’s not make-up. When an iron bar breaks your face and cracks your skull. You get it resolved and you move on,” he wrote in the caption.
He explained that the injury occurred in Morocco while he was filming a scene that became life-threatening in an instant.

‘One minute I’m running, the next minute a huge force explodes on me. My clumsy @johnnymacstunts came running up to me and said ‘doesn’t look good. Your nose is crushed and I can see your skull. I replied, “that’s not good.”
‘The thing is, I thought for sure I was going to have a brain haemorrhage, pass out and die. I thought it was funny that my ending would be in the desert, with no hospital insight, doing what I love most.
‘On reflection, it is the way I accepted death that has always amazed me. I think it’s just that. I have accepted it.’
Tish married Prison Break actor Dominic in August 2023 following her divorce from her 28-year-old husband, Billy Ray.
The news comes come after recent reports that the Cyrus family argues Behind the scenes.
While some family members, like daughter Miley, attended the wedding, Tish’s children Noah and Braison were absent from the nuptials – fueling speculation of a rift at the time.
His family troubles come after recent reports that the Cyrus family are feuding behind the scenes after Tish’s daughter Noah (left) failed to attend her and Dominic’s wedding.
According to a DailyMail.com insider, Noah’s absence from the wedding was not a choice, but the result of Tish not inviting her.
We weekly then published a report claiming that Tish had ‘stolen’ Dominic from 24-year-old Noah, who was said to ‘saw’ the actor when her mother started chasing him.
‘Noah has always craved attention because she didn’t get it growing up. Tish was always so Miley-sided because that’s where the money was,” the source claimed.
“Miley and Tish are like sisters and Noah has always been jealous of this because she has never had the bond with Tish that Miley has.”

However, it has since been claimed that Miley Cyrus’ sister ‘never dated Dominic’ and she has been accused by family insiders of ‘fabricating’ the relationship to ‘paint herself as a victim’ in her ongoing feud with Tish.
It has since been claimed that Tish is keen to rekindle a relationship with Noah.
“Tish definitely still wants to be in a relationship with Noah,” a source said American weekly. “She hopes they can get over this.”
