Alana “Honey Boo Boo” Thompson has called out her mother, Mama June, and is also threatening to take legal action over stolen money.
On Friday’s episode of Mama June: Family Crisis, Mama June admitted that she had taken money from Alana’s Coogan account — a trust where parents of child stars are legally required to deposit a percentage of their earnings.
After the revelation, Alana shared in a confessional, “Mama’s really pissing me off because she’s trying to make everything about her damn self and it’s like where’s my money?… I’m gonna get the truth out of Mama and I will find out where my money is. Mama is not getting a slap on the wrist for this one.”
Mama June’s husband, Justin Stroud, was also taken aback by the news, saying he had also been left in the dark.
“Honestly, I was really hurt because I thought me and June was supposed to be able to tell each other everything and if she knew that it was gonna blow up like this, she should have told me about it,” he explained.
Alana’s older sister Lauryn “Pumpkin” Efird said that Mama June was “smart” because she knew to put “the bare minimum” into Alana’s account that was “legally right and then pocketed the rest, Lord knows what she did or where it went.”
She added: “I honestly did not think she could stoop that low.”
She also pointed out to Mama June that Alana was “the reason you’re famous to begin with.”
Alana broke down in tears after realizing she didn’t know how she’s going to pay for her college education. She then emotionally told Mama June, “You don’t really give a f— that you took our money, that’s the real problem here. That’s the problem.”
When Lauryn said her mother wasn’t able to “be honest” about how she spent the earnings, June responded, “I’ve been honest, dumbass.”
Mama June admitted to taking 80 percent and left 20 percent for Alana. Lauryn said, “I don’t get what you were even paying for, other than drugs.”
Alana threatened to take Mama June to “court” because “something’s gonna happen because you ain’t fitting to just get away with stealing my money, baby.”
