Miley Cyrus’ Australian stepfather, Prison Break star Dominic Purcell, has stunned fans with his rugged new look.
The 55-year-old actor, who shot to fame playing Lincoln Burrows on the hit Fox drama, recently shared a selfie showing off his striking transformation.
Once known for his shaved head, five o’clock shadow and chiselled frame, Dominic has embraced a full silver fox makeover, sporting a thick white beard and a more relaxed physique.
In one snap, the actor appeared contemplative as he posed in a black T-shirt, his salt-and-pepper hair slicked back and his beard taking centre stage.
The new look couldn’t be further from the tough, clean-cut image fans remember from his Prison Break days.
His wife Tish Cyrus, 58, has previously poked fun at his rugged reinvention, joking in the comments of one post: ‘I have no idea who this is?!? Bring my husband back.’

Dominic was born in England in 1970 and moved to Australia when he was two years old.
In 2023, he married his fiancée Tish, ensuring that her superstar daughter Miley now has a very special connection to Australia.
The American singer, 32, gained four Aussie step-siblings after her mother married Dominic.
The English-born actor began dating Tish in July 2022, just three months after she divorced Billy Ray Cyrus.
Tish revealed her and Dominic’s engagement news in April 2023 by sharing a pair of loved-up pictures that showed off her diamond sparkler.
Dominic shares son Joe, 25, daughter Audrey, 24, and twins Lily-Rose and Augustus, both 22, with his ex-wife Rebecca Williamson, whom he split with in 2008.
And the talented siblings have a lot in common with the pop icon.
Joe appears to be following in his father’s acting footsteps after recently appearing in the short film Shellbound, which was written by his sister Audrey.

He also starred in the 2025 mini-series His Nerd.
They wed in an intimate ceremony in Malibu, California, just four months after announcing their engagement.
The lovebirds initially sparked romance rumours after she left a string of heart emojis on his Instagram and wrote, ‘Hi Babe’ in response to one of his posts.
Tish and her ex-husband Billy Ray tied the knot in 1993 and called it quits twice before finally going through with their divorce in 2022.
The former couple share five children: Miley; Trace, 36; Brandi, 38; Braison, 31; and Noah, 25.
