Dance Moms: Abby Lee Miller Dead At 57?
Just like Larry The Cable Guy, The Sun was the first to report Abby Lee Miller’s rumored death. The outlet, again, claimed that the death of Abby Lee was trending on social media. Scrolling through Twitter, there aren’t any tweets to really suggest that is the platform her death would have been trending on. Twitter, however, does reveal that she’s certainly no stranger to “dying.”
According to Distractify, it was not The Sun who started this death hoax. There was a report that popped up on Facebook claiming Abby Lee Miller had passed away. And, that is where the death hoax started to make rounds.

The report of her death read: “At about 11 a.m. ET on Monday (July 24, 2023), our beloved dancer Abby Lee Miller passed away.”
Abby Lee Miller was born on September 21, 1966, in Pittsburgh. She will be missed but not forgotten. Please show your sympathy and condolences by commenting on and liking this page.”
Fans of Abby Lee Miller were pretty quick to take to the comments of the post to send thoughts and prayers to her family during this difficult time. Not everyone, however, was buying this death report from this random Facebook page. Likewise, many fans thought it was a little strange that the page appeared to be using her death to promote the page by encouraging people to like and follow.
Has Proof Of Life Been Confirmed?
Fortunately, the death hoax made its way back to Abby Lee and her legal team did take to social media to issue an official statement on her rumored death while confirming she was very much still alive.
The official statement read: “She joins the long list of celebrities who have been victimized by this hoax. She’s still alive and well, stop believing what you see on the Internet.”
