It’s crazy to think Dance Moms first graced our television screens back in 2011, and Maddie Ziegler, Chloe Lukasiak, Nia Frazier and more cast members were introduced as young girls in Abby Lee Miller’s class. These days, they’re all grown up and have changed so much.

Abby’s controversial teaching method makes for great television but has created a strained relationship with many of her former students.

Maddie, one of Abby’s most successful protégés, exclusively told Life & Style in April 2019 that she’s “not in contact” with her former coach.

While most of the cast has shaded Abby after their time on Dance Moms, JoJo Siwa has remained amicable with her former coach and they even reunited in July 2022.

Keep scrolling to see how much the Dance Moms cast has changed since season 1 and get an update on where they are now!
