Description

After becoming famous on TLC’s Here Comes Honey Boo Boo, Mama June Shannon’s life took a dark turn with a reportedly $2500-a-day cocaine addiction that nearly destroyed her family. After losing 300 lbs post-bariatric surgery and spending nearly $75,000 on cosmetic procedures, Mama June’s addiction forced her to sell her house. “It wasn’t something that just started,” she told daughter Lauryn (AKA Pumpkin). With four kids from different fathers and a rocky past, June’s life unraveled until she completed 30 days in rehab. Now she’s back with the season finale of “Mama June: Family Crisis” airing July 25 on We TV. Benny Johnson is the host of The Benny Show on Rumble and YouTube and a contributor to Turning Point USA.
