"No, they're not true," she said. "I wouldn't say that they stole my money."
After a lengthy pause, the TikTok star added, "I think we did a lot of things as a family."
D'Amelio also reflected on how little control she had over her finances when she first became famous as a teenager.
"There are not a lot of rules and regulations when it comes to people who do what I do," she explained. "I didn't start learning about and getting involved in my [finances] until I was about 21."
"I'm very fortunate to be able to be living the life that I am, but I've also been working nonstop since I was 15, so I should have stuff to show for it," D'Amelio added.
