Courtney Stodden's mother resigns as her manager

Los Angeles: Reality TV star Courtney Stodden's mother Krista Keller has resigned as her manager.

Keller says she and the 20-year-old, who caused a media storm in the last few weeks with the release of her solo sex tape via Vivid Entertainment, have parted ways "due to serious creative differences", reports usmagazine.com.

“On May 22 I resigned as Courtney's manager/momager. I love my daughter very much, but I decided to step down due to serious creative differences,” Keller said in a statement.

Now Keller, 55, hopes to take on new clients.

"I will also be on the lookout for people that I would like to manage to help them reach their goals in the entertainment industry. I plan to use my time now to help my husband, Reggie, with his Christian website called powersharing.com, which is a ministry to uplift and inspire others to follow their dreams through faith," she said.

Stodden, who has been married to 54-year-old actor Doug Hutchison for four years, received $1 million for her sex tape, despite claiming two years ago she had turned down a $5 million offer to shoot a pornographic movie.
