Dance Moms alum Christi Lukasiak is determined not to repeat her mother Debbie’s patterns with her kids, Chloe Lukasiak, 23, and Clara, 14.
Lately, Christi Lukasiak has been in trouble. She was caught red-handed for driving under the influence following a car crash.
Highlights
- Though, Christi strongly resembles her mother Debbie, she isn’t close with her.
- She was raised by her grandparents and shares very close-knit relationship with them.
- It’s dubious whether her siblings stayed with their mother of grandparents like Christi.
It’s not the first time that Christi has been in the limelight. She was notable for her ongoing clashes with Abby Lee Miller, which largely centered around Abby’s favoritism toward Maddie over Chloe.
Her strong bond with Holly and Kelly, whom she fondly called her partner-in-crime, was well-known.
She was beloved for her humorous confessions, memorable quotes, and expressive facial reactions.
Above all, Christi was dedicated to being Chloe and Clara’s loving and supportive mother.
Christi Lukasiak Didn’t Get Along With His Mother, Debbie
Christi and her mother, Debbie, resemble strikingly in their physical features, such as their pretty facial structure and classic blonde hair.
However, despite their similar appearance, they didn’t have a good relationship.
Christi was born to a young mother and faced a challenging childhood, largely due to her poor relationship with Debbie, whom she described as being emotionally abusive.
Regarding her father, she has chosen to stay mum about his details.
She often expressed that her upbringing was tough, and she didn’t have the opportunity to pursue a life of dance like her daughter Chloe now enjoys.
In a heated moment during an argument with Abby Lee Miller, Christi once told Abby something like,
“The reason I don’t have a relationship with my mom is because she’s exactly like you.”

This statement highlights the depth of Christi’s feelings towards her mother and Abby, drawing parallels between their behaviors that harmed her life.
Because of this difficult relationship, Christi lived with her grandparents, with whom she developed a strong bond.
She doesn’t miss a chance to wish her grandmother Elizabeth’s birthday on social media platforms.
Sadly, her grandma is no longer there, but she often reminisces how Elizabeth cared for and nurtured her during her early days.
Christi Lukasiak Hasn’t Said Anything About Her Siblings Whereabouts
Christi grew up with two sisters- the youngest of three is Jodie, while the other’s identity remains disclosed.
It’s unclear whether her two sisters chose to stay with Debbie or her grandparents, just like Christi.
Similarly, she doesn’t include her biological siblings on social media premises.
Instead, she calls Kelly Hyland both her sister and partner in crime.
Additional Information
- In 1998, she married her husband, Marc Lukasiak, a director of marketing and communications at the Children’s Hospital of Pittsburgh.
- For years, she struggled with unsuccessful attempts and was on the brink of giving up when she received the joyous news of her pregnancy with Clara.
- In 2019, Christi took on a significant role as a core mom for YourMomCares.
