Abby Lee Miller 'Bad Moms' film premiere, Los Angeles, USA - 26 Jul 2016
EXCLUSIVE: Dance Moms star Abby Lee Miller doesn’t flinch as a gymnast SOMERSAULTS over her during an outing to an LA beach. The reality TV star, 55, bravely lay back in her wheelchair as the muscular shirtless performer ran towards her then vaulted above her. Miller, who shot to fame as the star of hit show Dance Moms, has been using a wheelchair after undergoing surgery to remove a tumor from her spinal cord after reportedly being diagnosed with a form of cancer called Burkitt Lymphoma. Miller’s visit to the beach in Santa Monica, CA, saw her talking to a man and a woman dressed in workout gear before giving him a series of dance lessons. An onlooker said: “Abby was in great form and started giving the guy dance lessons. "She was teaching him to move and how and when to move his feet and it seemed he was struggling to get the hang of it. It was like she was back on the show Dance Moms and was shouting orders at him to ‘move to the side’ or ‘back right’. She appeared to be trying to teach him ballet just like she did to kids on the series. “It looked the guy had some gymnastic training and so afterwards they did a stunt where he ran at her and somersaulted directly above her.” Miller spent eight seasons on Dance Mom and previously taught Joelle Joanie “Jojo” Siwa. In 2017 she was sentenced to 366 days in prison for bankruptcy fraud. 31 Aug 2021 Pictured: Abbey Lee Miller.

Tell us how you really feel, Dance Moms co-stars! Instead of feeling sad or upset over Abby Lee Miller‘s, 50, prison sentence, mothers Kelly Hyland and Christi Zook Lukasiak CELEBRATED the occasion with a bottle of champagne out of a bar with two mother cast members, Dawn Check and Diane Pent. The smile on their faces is undeniable, and the women even raised their glasses for a toast. “Who’s the happiest?,” Kelly captioned the Instagram picture, which got quite the strong reaction from Dance Moms fans. “You’re so rude I hate you,” one wrote. “Get some class,” added another.

Meanwhile, poor Abby is gearing up to serve one year and one day behind bars — followed up an additional two years of supervised release. The dance instructor was found guilty of fraud on May 9 by Chief Judge Joy Flowers Conti in a Pittsburgh court room. It was also reported that Abby was fined $40,000 and ordered to pay a $10,000 judgement. But this is where the story gets really twisted — both Christi and Kelly sat BEHIND her in court as a way to show their support, which is weird since Kelly sued the Dance Moms villain in early 2014 for assault, defamation, and destruction of property.

But the show must go on, right? Abby shocked the world of March 27 when she announced her potentially permanent leave from Dance Moms. The Lifetime sensation simply won’t be the same about the ruthless instructor — but there’s a chance she’ll return at some point in the future. “Never say never,” she said to People. Guess we’ll have to wait to see how this plot twist plays out!

HollywoodLifers, do you think the moms are being insensitive to Abby? Or do you think it’s funny?
