Abby Lee Miller Not Ready for Prison Just Yet
Following a lengthy fraud case, Abby Lee Miller may find herself behind bars for 10 years. Despite the uncertainties of her future, the reality star recently managed to take a swipe at her former employers, claiming that "Dance Moms" manipulated, disrespected and used her.
In a recent interview, Miller said she did not want to fight anymore. Holding back her tears, she said, "I don't want to do it anymore," referring to the decision to end her stint on the show.
On March 26, Miller also explained in a lengthy post on Instagram that the reason she had decided to leave the show was because she had not received ample creative credit for her award-winning routines, themes and costuming.

The studio owner also told Entertainment Tonight, "I think the word 'respect,' the word 'trust,' and the word 'thank you' was missing from my relationship with the production company."
When asked about Cheryl Burke replacing her on the show, Miller said, "I'm glad that someone who has worked on a network show for as long as she has on 'Dancing With the Stars' is going to see what I've been working with for seven years."
Miller admitted that she is not quite ready to spend time in prison yet. She also maintained that she did not leave the reality dance show because of that. She explained that she chose to quit because she did not want to fight for a greater idea, for better music and for a bigger costume budget.
Miller said she's looking forward to Burke dealing with all of that. Towards the end of the interview, she said she's done working under those conditions.
Last week, Miller confirmed that she would quit "Dance Moms." The announcement came shortly after the members of her junior elite competition team chose to compete with another studio for their recent dance competition.
