Mama June Shannon’s Estranged Daughter Anna Reunites With Sister Pumpkin Amid Mom’s Absence!

Mama June Shannon’s daughters, Lauryn “Pumpkin” Efird and Anna Cardwell, have reportedly reunited after the birth of Pumpkin’s twins. The Sun obtained photos of Anna “Chickadee” Cardwell visiting her younger sis following the May birth of Pumpkin’s babies, Stella and Sylus.

Pumpkin and her husband, Josh Efird, welcomed Sylus Ray and Stella Renae on May 19. The 22-year-old gave birth, via cesarean section, at a Georgia hospital. The Mama June: Road to Redemption couple are now parents to four children under five. 

Anna, June’s oldest daughter, has rarely been seen with her family over the last several years. Anna did attend Pumpkin’s baby shower for her son, Bentley, 1, in June of last year. 

Anna’s oldest daughter, Kaitlyn, 9, was spotted having fun on an ATV with Pumpkin’s oldest child, 4-year-old Ella.  

“Anna has been over quite a bit lately, lending a hand with the twins and Bentley, while her daughters entertain Pumpkin’s oldest daughter, Ella,” a family insider told the outlet.

Anna’s visit comes after Pumpkin expressed upset over her mother seemingly not visiting her since meeting the twins in the hospital. 

“June has not been by to see Pumpkin or the babies since they’ve been home,” a source said. “She hasn’t been to their house to check on her or try to help.” 

Pumpkin’s aunt, Jo “Doe Doe” Shannon, 51, was later spotted unloading diapers, baby wipes, and other supplies at the couple’s Georgia home. Pumpkin’s sister, Jessica “Chubbs” Shannon, 25, was seen transferring the items into the house.  

Anna, 27, previously stated that she shared no relationship with her mother, despite her appearance at last year’s baby bash. June connected with all four of her daughters at the June 2021 event, for the first time in six years. The clan shared photos of the happy backyard party, where June posed beside Anna, Jessica Shannon, Pumpkin, and Alana “Honey Boo Boo” Thompson.

June gave birth to Anna when she was 15 years old. In 2014, the family’s reality series, “Here Comes Honey Boo Boo,” was axed after June began spending time with a man who had been convicted of molesting Anna as a child. In 2015, Anna sued June over money she felt she and her daughter were owed from their time on the show. They also clashed over cash made from joint promotional projects. Their relationship only worsened after June spiraled into drug addiction. 

June currently claims that she’s been sober for 29 months. 

June was recently ordered to pay Pumpkin $800 in monthly child support. The order turned over full custody of June’s youngest child, Alana Thompson, to Pumpkin. 

June later told Page Six’s Virtual Reali-tea that Alana made an independent decision to stay with her sister.

June stated—“People don’t understand the custody thing. It’s not like somebody ‘lost custody.’ In the state of Georgia, you do temporary guardianship every year and [Alana] had been with [Lauryn] in my addiction.”
