Later, she acknowledged to Delfi.lt that the debt originated with her mother. Her manager, L. Lučiūnas, echoed this sentiment, stating to the same publication that the lawsuit was filed against her mother, with attempts to include Arlauskaitė despite a lack of documented financial obligations on her part.
