Riverdale Star Feuds with Director Dad Over Scandal

Riverdale star Hayley Law has reportedly been locked in a bitter feud with her father after he married her former best friend and schoolmate. 

The 33-year-old Canadian actress - best known for her portrayal of  - is the daughter of casting director Blair Law and grew up in Surrey, a small town outside Vancouver.

Last month, Blair's much younger bride - who is also Hayley's former Riverdale co-star - Caitlin Mitchell-Markovitch, 30, shared photos from her bridal shower on Instagram. Hayley was noticeably missing from the festivities.

A source told the Daily Mail that Hayley and Caitlin 'were very close' in the past and were even pictured together in a number of photos on Hayley's father's Instagram.

However, his new age-gap marriage with her former friend has reportedly fractured his relationship with his daughter, who the source said 'cannot get behind this union or the relationship' and 'hasn't spoken to her dad in quite some time.'

'This felt like the ultimate betrayal from both of them,' the source said. 'They've been together for a while now.' 

The source confirmed that Blair is in his sixties, adding that he 'is one of the biggest casting directors in Vancouver,' and 'never had problems getting young women because of his job.' 

Hayley has unfollowed her father and former friend on social media, while her sister Brittany, who attended the wedding, still follows both.

In contrast to her apparent distancing from her dad, Hayley is understood to have maintained a strong bond with her mother, whom her father separated from when she was a child. 

'Hayley was always very close with her mom growing up,' the insider said.

'She was always present and she basically raised her kids as a single mom. Blair wasn't a consistent presence and wasn't as involved in their lives as she was.

'Blair would bring his daughters around to the studio and work when they were little, but their mom was the one who did a lot for them. 

'Their mom really loved being a stage mom almost. She really wanted Hayley especially to get into acting. The split from their mom was quite messy.'
