So many parents think their children are especially talented, but Jessalyn was right about what she saw.
Speaking withThe U.S. Sunin 2023, Miller explained, “She knows why she’s here.
I believe she would still be a star, but not to the magnitude that she is.
She’d be successful, but not a multimillionaire.
That was because of [‘Dance Moms’].
And she knows that.”
… [She’s] literally the most opposite of that."
She added, “My second dream in life is to be a surgeon.
Jessalyn spoke withPeopleabout her relationship with her daughter in a 2021 joint interview.

“I could go a week without showering.
Literally, what I would do is I would put my hair in a ponytail.
I’d fall asleep with it in a ponytail.
I would wake up and I would just re-slick it.
“I feel more confident with my hair up.
I wear my hair up all the time because I don’t like it down.

Go home.'”
Everyone does grow up.
I think I’ll cross that bridge when I get to it.
But I mean, what do people want me to do?
Wear black every day?”
I also want to keep things in my life private until they are ready to be public.
