Reality TV shows and their personalities have been having a tough time lately, the Duggars lost their show;  'Real Housewives of New Jersey' cast member Teresa Giudice and her husband pleaded guilty to 41 counts of fraud with both serving time in prison, Honey Boo Boo and her family have fallen to the wayside and now 'Dance Moms' is in the unflattering spotlight.

Abby Lee Miller, the often grating and sometimes harsh star of 'Dance Moms' is now on the receiving end of some unpleasant news. According to Entertainment Weekly, Miller has been indicted on charges of bankruptcy fraud, concealment of bankruptcy assets, and false bankruptcy declarations, as put forth by Attorney David J. Hickton on Wednesday.

According to Entertainment Weekly, Miller filed a petition to reorganize her dance company in 2010. She allegedly attempted to prove bankruptcy by creating bank accounts to hide the money she made from Lifetime’s 'Dance Moms' and its spinoffs, approximately $755,492.85. She could face up to 5 years in prison along with some hefty fines if she is found guilty. The article states that she is due in court on November 5.
