Last year came with a lot of stress and struggle in the family of reality tv star Mama June Shannon.
From her weight loss journey, to her addiction scandal, to her issues with the law, and lastly which is the biggest blow, losing the custody battle of her youngest daughter Alana “Honey Boo Boo” Thompson, 17, to her daughter Lauryn “Pumpkin” Efird, 23.
In the family’s latest WEtv show “Mama June: Family Crisis,” viewers saw how much effort Mama June is putting to correct her mistakes and bring her family back together.
Because she wants to repair her broken home by being in her daughters’ lives, she sought a therapist. As it is, things are gradually moving well for the 43-year-old as she was present at Alana’s high school graduation early this month.
Mama June — June Chose To Stand By With Her Children
Two months ago, TMZ broke the news that Mama June’s eldest daughter Anna “Chickadee” Cardwell has been diagnosed with stage 4 Cancer.
Although the news is a sad one, it seems to have made Mama June’s intention to no longer be an absent parent in her daughters’ lives stronger.
Earlier this week, the “Mama June: Road To Redemption” alum confirmed to “The U.S. Sun” that she and her husband Justin Stroud would soon relocate to Georgia from Alabama in order to take good care of Anna.
“We are definitely leaving Alabama. I’m in the process of leaving Alabama now and I’m in the final steps of my legal issues,” said the Matriach to “The U.S. Sun,” adding, “So we’ll definitely be going back to Georgia.”
In an exclusive interview with E! News’ Francesca Amiker, Mama June said that she and all her daughters are “Fighting one of the biggest fights [we] have ever fought in our whole entire life. We are in each other’s lives.”
She also noted that, “We’re going through a lot right now, we’re doing it day by day. We’re just doing it all together, and we’re trying to fight the storm all together.”
The mom of 4 added, “It’s real life. It’s real life issues that everybody deals with every day, the struggles that we are dealing with as a family.”
