Reality shows are known for their drama, but not always the drama that goes on in front of the cameras. Often the real drama comes from the behind-the-scenes revelations from the cast after the fact.
There's always been drama when it comes to Abby Lee Miller and the rest of the Dance Moms cast, but this time, it was a lot more serious than usual.
"I recently posted on my FB that racism is not something we can disagree on and still be friends, which in turn is why we are not friends," Smith wrote.
"A statement from her that sticks in my mind to this day during my time on DMS8 is, ‘I know you grew up in the HOOD with only a box of 8 crayons, but I grew up in the country club with a box of 64 — don't be stupid.'"
"Ask yourself what does that mean? This to me shows that you think you are better than me and in higher rank and all together superior to ME. Do you remember you told me, ‘Do you want me to tell you why you are really here?'" Smith asked.
"Again showing your superiority. Let me remind you what you said in case you forgot. You told me to ‘LOOK in the MIRROR! That's the only reason you are here!' Kam told me she heard ‘they need a sprinkle of color!'"
Miller has taken to her own Instagram to apologize.
"To Kamryn, Adriana, and anyone else I've hurt, I am truly sorry. I realize that racism can not just come from hate, but also from ignorance. No matter the cause, it is harmful, and it is my fault," she wrote.
"While I hope to one day earn your forgiveness, I recognize that words alone are not enough. I understand it takes time and genuine change," Miller wrote.
Adriana has since responded that she does not accept Miller's apology as she has not reached out to Adriana herself.
