Maddie Ziegler comes from a big and blended family. She was born on September 30, 2002, in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, to parents Kurt Ziegler and Melissa Gisoni. Two years later, the couple welcomed Maddie’s sister, Mackenzie. Before her parents wed, her father was previously married and had two sons, Ryan and Tyler, born in the ’90s. In 2011, Maddie’s parents divorced, and her mother remarried to Greg Gisoni in 2013. Gisoni also had children from a previous marriage, twins Matthew and Michele, born in 1985, making them become Maddie’s step-siblings.
Although Maddie is close with her siblings, her relationship with her father became strained when she, Mackenzie, and their mom had to relocate to Los Angeles to film “Dance Moms” in 2015. In 2023, Mackenzie, a singer as well as a dancer, wrote a song about their father titled “Anatomy.” Speaking to People, she shared that Maddie was a huge help with the song’s music video as she choreographed it. “We grew up the same, so it kind of was a moment for us to share together, and it was super emotional,” she noted.
