The man came back into Lindsey's life when he learned that his daughter had become popular and rich. Unable to build a relationship with her, he went the other way and started slandering the actress. Lohan's mother was not better, she was trying to make as much money as possible at the expense of her daughter.

When the star needed help and tried to recover from drug addiction, Dina Lohan arranged her meetings with journalists for a good amount of money. She was not worried that Lindsay would spoil her already flawed reputation, telling the whole world about her problems and personal life.

Meghan got the attention of the media when she started dating Prince Harry. Her family also got into the spotlight and her father, designer Thomas Markle, said nasty things about his daughter, demanding a lot of money from journalists for candid interviews.

In a recent conversation with the press, the man spoke again about the childhood of Prince Harry's wife and the relationship with her mother. Markle spoke fondly of his daughter and admitted that she does not help him out as she promised before.

Leighton Meester

Leighton can be grateful to her mother for helping her become a star, since from an early age, Constance had her daughter work in modeling agencies and sent her to various auditions. Meester rose to fame starring in the TV series Gossip Girl. It was she who had to provide for the whole family.

The actress used to send her mother seven and a half thousand dollars a month, hoping that some of this money would go to the treatment of her sick brother. However, Constance spent the money on herself and got addicted to illegal substances again. She then demanded her daughter to send more money. She claimed that ten thousand dollars each month would be enough.

When the star found out how the money was being spent, she said she would no longer sponsor her mother. The woman could not accept the news and began to publicly accuse her daughter, saying that she does not want to help her and refuses to communicate. Meester took extreme measures, went to court and won custody of her younger brother, while Constance was left with no money and no children.
