Mama June has surely given her family members some trouble. Lauryn ‘Pumpkin’ Shannon has been taking care of her younger sister Honey Boo Boo ever since their mother went to rehab. The 21-year-old recently got married and gave birth to her first child. Yet, she had to pick up some extra responsibilities while June was away. Well, it is understandable that things have been a little hard on Pumpkin. In fact, all that drama has also affected her relationship with husband Joshua Efird, and she blames Mama June for it. Let’s take a detailed look at what happened.
Mama June: Lauryn Blames Her Mom For Problems In Marriage
Things have been hard on fan-favorite Pumpkin in the last few years. She’s had loads of responsibilities to manage, including her first child and younger sister, Alana Shannon. Well, this has had significant effects on her marriage with Joshua. However, according to In Touch, she believes that the main issue in whatever is going on is Mama June. While she accepts that her mom isn’t the only one to blame, Lauryn mentions that she’s had a big role to play in causing all the drama.
The couple who tied the knots back in April 2018 is currently taking care of two children. This includes her 3-year-old daughter Ella and 15-year-old Honey Boo Boo. On the other hand, her 41-year-old mother is in rehab, seeking sobriety. Lauryn had to uproot her entire family and move to a new place. Soon after Ella was born and she got married, the couple had to take in Alana as well. As a result, Pumpkin and Joshua couldn’t enjoy being new parents as much. As the WE tv star feels bad for how things turned out, she thinks her mother has been the biggest problem.
Mama June: Pumpkin Wants Her Relationships To Heal
Lauryn and Joshua have been facing issues for quite a while, and she’s trying to fix things as much as she can. However, alongside her married life, she also wants her relationship with Mama June to heal and grow stronger.

On the other hand, Lauryn acknowledges the fact that now all relationships are perfect. Moreover, there would be something wrong if they didn’t argue at all.
