Abby Lee Miller isn’t getting any support from the original “Dance Moms” cast.
The 50-year-old reality TV star was sentenced to 366 days in prison for bankruptcy fraud and for taking $120,000 worth of Australian currency into the country without reporting it, but she hasn’t heard from anyone since she received the news.
“Nobody original from the show [has reached out to me],” Miller told Us Weekly. “You know, they’ve made a lot of money over the years and not a peep! And no one from the production company, no way.”
While Miller is waiting to hear from “Dance Moms” star Maddie Ziegler, she did tell the publication current stars on the show reached out to her.
“Yolanda and Elliana [Walmsley], Stacey and Lilly [Ketchman], and Jaime and Maesi [Caes], and Brynn and Ashlee [Allen] reached out,” Miller told the magazine. “And my own students, you know, of course, that are at my studio, but didn’t get the pleasure and the money and the perks of being on a television show, but have paid me since they were 3 years old and are very loyal customers and loyal students.”
Following her sentencing, Miller appeared on “Good Morning America” and shared how she would cope with life behind bars. She’s expected to serve 10 months.
“A year and a day; it sounds like a movie title,” she reflected
“I’m just going to pretend that I am shooting a movie, and we’re on set, and I am there for 10 months, and that’s the way it’s gonna be,” she said.
Miller said she will spend her time behind bars “reading and I want to learn how to speak Spanish, and I am already working on a new book.”
