Christi Lukasiak

**Christina "Christi" Maria Zook-Lukasiak** (born March 3, 1977) is the wife of Marc Lukasiak and the mother of Chloe Elizabeth and Clara Alexandra Lukasiak.

Christi was known for her constant battles with Abby Lee Miller, which were often based on the treatment of Chloe and Abby's favoritism towards Maddie. She was also known for her extremely close friendship with Kelly (who she often referred to as her partner-in-crime), her hilarious confessionals, her meme-worthy quotes and facial expressions, and her devotion toward being a good mother to Chloe.

The Lukasiaks eventually departed from both the show and the studio after a fight between Abby and Christi in *Hollywood Here We Come, Part 2*, where although otherwise was shown in the episode, Christi later revealed that Abby had actually made fun of Chloe's medical condition instead of calling her "washed up."

Christi and Chloe did not feature on the show again until the Season 7 Finale and Season 7B. The pair went on to join Murrieta Dance Project as guests before eventually forming their own team called The Irreplaceables.

* Prior to *Dance Moms*, she had known Kelly Hyland for nine years, Holly Frazier for seven and Melissa Ziegler for six.
