Abby Lee Miller is throwing in the towel. The controversial dance instructor revealed that she will no longer be filming her hit reality television series, ‘Dance Moms.’ She made her announcement in a lengthy Instagram post to her fans and followers. Abby has been with the show since it debuted in 2011.
The dance choreographer was often slammed for being a bully to her dancers with her intimidation tactics and the cruel things she often said to them. And, according to Abby, she now wants the public to believe that it was all an act. In fact, she hinted that she might have been persuaded by Lifetime producers to act like the mean reality television villain that a lot of people see her as.
“I don’t have a problem working with any kid, I love children and have dedicated my life to making other people’s children successful!” Abby Lee said in the Instagram post. “I just have a problem with being manipulated, disrespected and used – day in and day out by men who never took a dance lesson in their lives and treat women like dirt!”
Then again, Abby did take part in the show for seven long seasons. After all, the show helped make her the household name that she is today. A lot of her fans can’t help but wonder why she’s throwing her producers under the bus now when she apparently didn’t have a problem berating her dancers and getting into fights with their moms while she was still on the show.
Of course, no one is surprised that Abby Lee Miller has finally cut ties with ‘Dance Moms.’ Many fans figured it would have happened sooner or later, especially with all of her current legal woes. In fact, many viewers still believe that Abby will end up behind bars for her bankruptcy fraud case. She was indicted for fraud for creating a secret bank account used to hide income from ‘Dance Moms’ and her dance tours. She was also indicted for making false bankruptcy declarations and hiding an estimated $755,000 in income.
