Mama June: Lauryn Expressed Her Concern About Alana & The Future Of Her Bond With June Shannon
The Shannon family is constantly chased by drama and anguish. One such incident happened recently when June sent a long wedding invitation to her daughters but no reply from Lauryn heated things even more. In the latest episode of Mama June, her daughter was seen venting to Aunt Doe Doe. During this conversation, the former expressed concern for her little sister Honey Boo Boo. She mentioned that she almost had an argument with Alana because she wanted her to take her college applications more seriously.
But, Pumpkin is now annoyed as Alana has rebuffed her advice. Then, the former expressed her annoyance by claiming that her sibling is like her mother, as she always relies on her boyfriend, Dralin. Then Lauryn acknowledged that she didn’t want her sister Honey Boo Boo to be like their mother. As Aunt Doe Doe raised Mama June as she became more like a mother to her, and their sisterly bond almost went missing. The former then accepted that a similar thing was happening between Alana and Lauryn. As the latter has to be like a mother to Alana.
During this conversation, Doe Doe even asked her about the possibility of making things right between Pumpkin and June Shannon. To this, Pumpkin responded that she expects her to change a bit. She mentioned that she would never make things normal if her mother would force her and her sisters ‘to get over the past’ just because she is their mom.
What Made Things Heat Up Between Pumpkin & Mama June?
The blazing feud between Pumpkin and Mama June dates back to May 2022. This was the time when Pumpkin became the legal guardian of her 17-year-old sister Alana. Because their mother preferred giving up custody of her daughter than paying child support. This argument was brought up again when June Shannon confronted Pumpkin for not replying to her invitation. To this, Pumpkin responded that she did so because Shannon expects all her daughters to forget everything.
Pumpkin then continued asking June about her statement while they were in Lawyer’s office during Alana’s custody battle. But her mom was incapable of recalling it. Then Lauryn criticized her, saying, “I would rather sign over my rights than give up any money.” This incident has changed everything for Pumpkin as she longs to be a sister to Alana, as she has to protect her like a mother.
