Leaving guardianship to Tish and Billy Ray Cyrus

Baxter Neal Helson is the biological father of Trace and Brandi, however neither of the children use the surname Helson and there is a reason for it.

Baxter had every right to become part of  their upbringing and was present for them whenever he could. However, at one point, Baxter was presented with the toughest decision of his life to give away both of his children for adoption, which means he no longer had the right to visit them unless by a mutual consent.

After adoption, Brandi Glenn Helson changed her name to Brandi Cyrus and Neil Timothy Helson to Trace Cyrus.
