Us has reached out to Lukasiak’s attorney for comment.

Lukasiak and her daughter Chloe were main cast members for the first four seasons of Dance Moms , which followed the inner workings of Abbey Lee Miller ’s dance studio in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.

Lukasiak and Chloe left the show following season 4 after Lukasiak clashed with Miller, though they made a guest appearance in season 7.

The pair returned to the Dance Moms franchise for Dance Moms: The Reunion , which aired May 1 on Lifetime. Lukasiak also hosted a clip show, Dance Mom: Epic Showdowns , which premiered on Lifetime in May.

In an interview with BuzzFeed in May, the mother-daughter duo reflected on their decision to return for the reunion special.

“I wanted to be able to just go and speak my mind and address some of the issues that we never got to talk about before,” said Chloe. “It really truly felt like closing the book on Dance Moms , which was good for me. I needed that closure to move on and kind of leave Chloé from Dance Moms in the past and go forward as my own individual self.”

Lukasiak added that she still keeps in touch with the other moms who appeared on the show.

“I have a group chat with all the moms. I talked to some moms more than the others. We all have different personalities, clearly,” she told BuzzFeed.

“I speak to Kelly [Hyland] quite a bit still, and we have our podcasts that we do every week. That's been a really interesting journey for the two of us to go back and revisit those old moments and watch them, but I think it's kind of therapeutic for the two of us to go through it together,” Lukasiak added.
