The latest Instagram session of the Abby Lee Dance Company or ALDC of dance instructor Abby Lee Miller had many thinking that Mackenzie Ziegler will be back in "Dance Moms" season 7.

Maddie Ziegler's younger sister took part in the recent Sheer Talent Nationals 2016 competition, where she and her teammates dominated the stage.

Miller celebrated the success of her students by posting on Instagram a picture of her with the victorious young dancers, their moms and Ziegler – all of them beaming as they reveled in their big win.

The dance coach captioned the photo "the over-all highest scoring group in the entire competition," showing how pleased she was with how her students performed in the competition.

In another photo posted by Miller, Kendall Vertes, who is set to return in "Dance Moms" season 7, is included. Miller reiterated her group's domination over the competition.

Basing on these photos, some fans thought that Ziegler will be returning to the show. Miller's hashtags that included "Dance Moms" season 7 also drew questions from fans.

However, it turns out that it simply shows that the youngster is still rehearsing in Miller's Pittsburgh studio and she still one of the members of the junior elite team there, despite having left "Dance Moms."

It is expected that the competitions such as this one will be featured in "Dance Moms" season 7. However, it will only be at these events that Ziegler will be appearing on the show.

As announced earlier this year, Ziegler and her older sister Maddie will no longer be appearing on the hit Lifetime series. Fans may expect the former in some competitions and nothing more.

Meanwhile, it is being reported that the production for "Dance Moms" season 7 will begin this September in time for a 2017 premiere. More "Dance Moms" season 6 episodes will be shown this fall.
