Trace Cyrus has made several disconcerting accusations about ex Brenda Song during their relationship.

Cyrus shared a screenshot on Instagram Stories of his response to an unknown post in which someone commented on understanding why Song “left” him.

The Metro Station member claimed Brenda stole thousands of dollars from him, faked multiple pregnancies, lied about being terminally ill, and made his family believe she was diagnosed with breast cancer, as well as a brain tumor.

Cyrus alleges his mother confronted Song after finding out that she had been lying. The Suite Life of Zack & Cody and Running Point actress was allegedly “humiliated” over the discovery, and never showed her face to the family again.

“It was all a lie,” Cyrus wrote. “She was humiliated to ever show her face around my family again once we figured it out and my mom confronted her and called her out on all of it.

“Thanks for reminding me of another scenario where I was a great loving person and someone did me wrong for no reason,” he concluded.

Cyrus posted another comment where he recounted the time when Song allegedly “faked an abortion.” The 36-year-old alleges he and his mother found Brenda in the bathroom with fake blood on the floor, and rushed to the hospital. “That's when all the lies started unraveling and we realized it was fake,” he wrote.

In a separate post on his Instagram Stories, Cyrus claimed he and his family were “catching on to her lies,” and allegedly uncovered that she did not have surgery to remove a brain tumor in Chicago by ripping off the bandage on her head, revealing no signs of a procedure.

In his final Instagram Story post about Song, Cyrus said he hopes Song is “doing better mentally.”

After the two went public with their relationship in 2010, Cyrus announced their engagement the following year.

E! News reported Cyrus and Song were expecting their first child that same year. Cyrus confirmed in a statement in 2012 that they were no longer together, and had “split up a couple of months ago.”

In her appearance on the Mythical Kitchen series Last Meals, Song opened up about being 16 years old when her mother was diagnosed with breast cancer, while also booking The Suite Life and getting accepted to Harvard University.

Following her split from Cyrus in 2017, Song started dating Macaulay Culkin the following year. Sources reported their engagement in Jan. 2022. They remain together, and have two children.
