And you thought your relationship with your mother was strained.
Leighton Meester and her mom are no stranger to ugly tabloid stories–in 2008 it came to light that the Gossip Girl star was born while her mother, Constance Meester, was in jail, serving a sentence for selling drugs.
In February of this year, Leighton fired her mom, who had been acting as her manager, after the elder Meester was accused of making death threats.
And the relationship seems to have soured further–the Gossip gal is suing Mom!
Via the NY Daily News:
According to the suit, Leighton sends $7500 a month to her mother to care for her younger brother, Lex, who has severe medical issues. But instead Constance — who refuses to work — uses it for plastic surgery, Botox and hair extensions.
Sounds like a real Blair Waldorf move.
