ALANA “Honey Boo Boo” Shannon, 14, is currently living with her sister after her mother Mama June abandoned their family.
Alana and Lauren, aka Pumpkin, are hiding away in a hotel from “bad people” that Mama has gotten mixed up with as a result of her drug habit.
Honey Boo Boo is one of the stars on the hit reality series Mama June: Family Crisis on TLC.
Is Honey Boo Boo still living with her sister?
The former Here Comes Honey Boo Boo star is staying with her older sister Pumpkin as Mama, 40, awaits trials after being arrested on possession of a controlled substance and drug paraphernalia.
She is facing jail time for the criminal charges.
Alana revealed recently that she, Pumpkin, Pumpkin’s husband Josh, and their one-year-old daughter Ella had been living in a hotel room as a result of the “bad people” that could be looking for them due to Mama’s debts.
The 14-year-old spoke to the camera in a Family Crisis clip, saying, “Hi Mama, so, currently, I’m a little mad because we’re in a hotel room because of you and the people that are after us.
“I might have to move schools. Pumpkin and Josh are so hell-bent on moving.”
“I mean, I just hope someday that you realize what you’re doing and what you’re missing out on because you’re missing out on Ella’s life, you’re missing out on my life.”
On an earlier episode of the show, Pumpkin and Alana traveled to California to stay with their PR rep and friend Gina Rodriguez.
Pumpkin said of their mom “I love her to death, I really do, and I would do anything for her, but at this point, I want to slap her in the face too.”
What happened between Honey Boo Boo and Mama June?
Last year, Mama abandoned her family for troubled boyfriend Geno Doak.
The mother and grandmother has four daughters: Anna, 25, Jessica, 23, Pumpkin and Alana.
In a recent episode of Mama June: Family Crisis, Pumpkin, 20, and Mama June, 40, reunited after not seeing each other for months as the family matriarch admitted she had done thousands of dollars worth of drugs a day.
She sold her Georgia home at a huge loss for fast cash in October 2019.
“The only reason I sold the house, I was dead f**king broke,” Mama June told her shocked daughter.
“Because you know, at that point, we was doing quite a bit. I mean, it was a couple ounces a day. Our habit was $2,500 a day, if not more.”
June has been posting videos from Florida to promote her $30 personalized video messages and other merchandise and was spotted pawning a diamond ring for $1,500 and on Facebook Marketplace in January.
How did Mama June lose weight?
Since 2016, June has lost over 300 pounds.
After the insertion of her gastric sleeve, Mama June underwent more surgery to achieve a total body transformation in 2017.
The reality star went under the knife for a breast augmentation, liposuction on her arms and skin removal on her “turkey neck, and “batwing” arms, and stomach — an area where doctors removed nine pounds of excess skin.
All in all, her surgeries cost a whopping $75,000.
How much does Honey Boo Boo make per episode?
Alana reportedly made $50,000 per episode when she appeared on Here Comes Honey Boo Boo.
Despite these figures, the family is said to be suffering financial woes.
Papers obtained by The Sun revealed that Lauryn’s husband Josh Efird failed to pay the September rent of $1,242 for the home they were once living in and was sued, while also being charged an additional $95 in late fees.
According to the Georgia court papers, the landlord demanded the past due rent and possession of the home.
What is Honey Boo Boo’s net worth?
According to Celebrity Net Worth, Honey Boo Boo has grossed a net worth of $500,000.
