Miley Cyrus' dad Billy Ray Cyrus reportedly bans the "Hannah Montana" star from dating young actor Jesse McCartney.

"Hannah Montana" star Miley Cyrus and actor Jesse McCartney may have the same feeling. The 15-year-old girl admitted that she had a crush on the "Summerland" star, while Jesse also said that he'd willing to date her. But it's not easy for them to have a romantic relationship as Miley's father Billy Ray Cyrus was reported to be banning her from dating the actor.

"There's been serious flirting between them for a while, but Billy Ray won't let them date," a Cyrus family mole told Star magazine. "It's driving Miley and Jesse crazy!" Another pal also revealed that the pair communicate over the phone and text each other. "They tell each other how crazy they are for each other. And how frustrating it is that they're being kept apart!" said the pal.

Jesse thought that Billy forbids him from dating his daughter because he's been known dating a lot of girls. A friend of the 21-year-old actor said, "Jesse also thinks the fact that he's been known to date a lot of young girls in Hollywood has gone against him with Miley's dad. Jesse's told Billy Ray that he's willing to start out by having a chaperone of his choice around. But that's not good enough for Billy Ray."

Miley previously shared her love secret, admitting that she had a crush on the "She's No You" singer. "It was so embarrassing, when I first moved to Los Angeles, I had a crush on Jesse McCartney," she said. The Disney beauty even revealed that she wrote a love song about him.
