Dance Moms star Kelly Hyland arrested for assaulting Abby Lee Miller
In not-so-shocking reality show news, one of the moms on Dance Moms was reportedly arrested in New York after allegedly attacking show star Abby Lee Miller over a casting issue.
Kelly Hyland, who is the mother of dancers Brooke Hyland and Paige Hyland as well as a former student of Abby’s, was booked back in November according to TMZ. The site was told Kelly “freaked out” after Abby brought in a new dancer to try out. Feeling that her kids were being overlooked, “Kelly began screaming at Abby and then Kelly allegedly grabbed Abby’s hair and it became a full-on cat fight,” according to the site.

Kelly Hyland and Abby Miller have quite the history, as you may know. Kelly went on a Twitter rant back in July after her daughter, Paige, got passed over in favor of another student because she refused to learn a new routine on the day of the dance company’s recital. “Never in 40 years of being in the Abby Lee Dance Company has anyone been given a solo the day of the f—king recital,” Kelly screamed on the episode.
Kelly later took her frustrations out on Twitter when the episode aired:
Kelly says that her contract ends after the sixth season, so she only has a couple more to go! Dance Moms is currently airing its fourth season with new episodes airing Tuesday nights at 9/8c.
