Gabby Douglas is the Olympic sweetheart who’s beloved the whole world over, but a bitter family feud has erupted between her estranged parents, and the fight is all over the millions she stands to earn.

The bad blood centers on lucrative endorsement deals that are expected to bring in $10 million over the next few years and upward of $100 million over Gabby’s lifetime sources have told The National Enquirer.

“Both sides of Gabby’s family are jockeying to be in good standing with the goose that laid the golden egg,” a close source said. “Meanwhile, poor Gabby is caught in the middle.”

Ever since the 16-year-old “Flying Squirrel” catapulted into the spotlight with Olympic gold medals in the gymnastics team and individual all-around competitions, shocking details about her family life have emerged.

Her father Timothy Douglas was arrested in February for contributing to the delinquency of a minor; he pleaded no contest, and he has one year to complete a state-mandated parenting course to avoid jail.

The incident occurred less than two weeks after Gabby’s mom, Natalie Hawkins, filed for divorce from Douglas, 46.

“I’m trying to keep things positive right now,” Douglas, who served more than 17 years with the Virginia Air National Guard -- including being deployed to Iraq and Afghanistan -- told The Enquirer. “I feel like I’ve been the best father that I can be to my daughter and to my family.”

But the family feud boiled over while Gabby competed.
