"Dance Moms" follows Abby Lee Miller and the nation's favorite tween dancers as they take on Hollywood while new auditions, new competitions, and new studios raise the stakes.

The road has not been easy for “Dance Mom’s” star Abby Lee Miller. After completing her prison sentence last year, the famed dance instructor was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma. But if anything, Abby has proven she is a fighter and is not ready to hang up the dance shoes. The new season of Dance Moms follows Abby as she rebuilds her dance company while battling the after-effects of cancer that has left her confined to a wheelchair. Abby is ready to get back to her life and do what she loves most…teaching students to dance! With the goal of putting her life, health and dance studio back together, Abby returns to where it all began – the Abby Lee Dance Company in Pittsburgh.

Its sad what abby did to maddie, imagine telling you that no one likes you and that everyone is jelous. Sad

[bellebelle]

Abby be making up the most ridiculous scenarios when it comes to Chloe. I remember when she called her cockiest child she ever met for not getting the choreo right away 😬

[Tigerheiress]

I never trust abby but the thing about letting chloe get water sounded genuine

[anitagiangreco]

I feel bad abt how all these girls were treated on the show they were so sweet and deserved better

[AvgUtubeWatcher]

The only problem here is abby. A teacher can have favourite but should never favour them over other kids in front of them and most importantly, a teacher should teach the same thing to a first bencher and a last bencher with the SAME KINDNESS. A teacher who hates a student isn't a teacher just like a parent who doesn't like their children isn't a parent

This title sums up everything wrong and toxic with Abby’s relationship with Maddie. She’d manipulate this kid 24/7 saying things like “nobody’s happy for you, everyone’s jealous of you, ” “the moms are vultures, ” “you know Chloe would never be happy for you.” She even tried to manipulate Maddie to go against her MOTHER to appease her. Their relationship was not loving or healthy, idk how people can watch Abby’s obsession and gaslighting of Maddie and say Maddie should be “grateful.”

It’s sad that everyone criticise melissa but it’s not her fault. the other moms would do the same as her. maddie was the best, she has the technique but also the emotion. she became the most famous for a reason

[Freepaleestineeee]

Who else once found dance moms and now cant stop watching it 🥲

[asiaa]

Y’all ain’t have to do Melissa like that in the thumbnail 😭

[DaraMcgrandles]

Melissa: *flips out* don’t ask me to come back 😡😡
Also Melissa: *comes back the next morning* everyone has their moments it was no big deal 😁

[nbohjng]

Is it just me or holly has never said a bad word 😮😅😊

[snappiepappie]

Honestly the moms are wrong for being mad at Melissa for not saying something. Everyone knows talking to Abby is like taking a bullet. If ur upset you go in and tell Abby. If she went in it would've just made things bad for her kids and they know it.

It's disgusting how Melissa tells Maddie the mom's are attacking her and Melissa, when they're not attacking Maddie. And it's disgusting how Abby tells Maddie her friends and the mom's are jealous and that maddies friends would never be happy for her . I'm glad Chloe got the Joffrey thing. Melissa and Abby really did alienate Maddie and turn her into a very poor loser and a poor sport. She was never able to be happy for her friends the few times they did win, because she's too worried that Abby and Melissa are going to be upset she didn't win. It's no wonder these girl's lost their passion for something they're amazing at and should be enjoying . Sadly Abby didn't allow that and stole that from them. Even Maddie. I think it's really sad.

"i hope she continues she loves it"
Maddie saying how much she hated it

[donnalee]

The shame, is that Maddie's mother allowed Abbey to alienate her child to be Abbey's chess piece. I lay blame at Melissa feet...😊

[Jess-ypfo]

Christi and Kelly being Jealous of Maddie is more like it. How they mad Abby prefers her over Chloe?!

[MsDana-mofp]

I love how Chloe' s net worth in 2023 is twice of Maddie's & Abby's!

[BradyRanger]

I like how the official account admits Abby was turning the other kids against her.

[Bernice_]

It's super sad that Abby loves Maddie and when Maddie made a mistake on stage but Abby forgived her and when others make mistakes Abby never ❤ forgives them except Maddie😢
