Cheer: How long was Maddy’s father in prison?

During Cheer season 2, Maddy says that her father served 12 years in prison.

Maddy’s grandmother, Terry Ann Flynn, also appears on Cheer. Speaking of the time when Maddy’s father was getting out of prison, Terry said that Maddy was “…beside herself, not knowing how she was going to handle it...”

Maddy took to Instagram in March 2019 to say that she was officially on the Navarro cheer team which means she would’ve moved to Texas around this time, after her father was released from prison.

Speaking of her father, Maddy said: “He didn’t get to see me a lot of my life but a the end of the day that’s kind of his fault.” The cheerleading pro also added that she thinks that her father “has a lot to make up for“.
