Mama June: Family Crisis

June Shannon, known as Mama June, rose to fame as the mother of aspiring beauty-pageant contestant Honey Boo Boo (Alana Thompson) across multiple reality programs. The notoriety drew jokes from comedians and social media users about her weight. After ending her marriage to Sugar Bear and facing health challenges, Mama June pursues a slimmer silhouette to embark on a fresh chapter—new life, a transformed body, and, she hopes, a new romance.
