Fans OUTRAGED as Honey Boo Boo BEGS for College Funds Online!

Alana ‘Honey Boo Boo’ Thompson has stirred discontent among her followers by seeking financial support on social media for her college expenses.

On TikTok, Alana aimed to gather $2,000 for her education, accepting any contributions she could, yet felt disheartened by falling short of her goal. Now, questions are arising about her current financial state. 

As Honey Boo Boo embarked on her college journey, financial pressures loomed large. With a scholarship of $21,000 per year and tuition costs exceeding that amount, she found herself in a tight spot. She reached out to her mother, Mama June, for financial assistance, only to discover the funds from her childhood earnings had been depleted. Alana was left with merely $33,000, insufficient for her living expenses, particularly since she aspired to live off-campus with her boyfriend, Dralin Carswell, facing monthly rents of approximately $2,000.

On Reddit, there’s buzz about Alana taking to TikTok to solicit funds for her spring semester’s remaining fees. Fans expressed dismay that she was still seeking money for a semester nearing its end. They also pondered over the fate of her earnings from the latest “Family Crisis” season. The original poster (OP) noted:

“Is on TT asking for cash through Zelle, Cash App, or GoFundMe for her spring semester balance. Isn’t she earning from the show now? How does she have an outstanding balance for the spring semester? Usually, colleges require payment before classes commence. She insists on not having the school paid directly.”

The OP was perplexed by the situation. Subsequently, the discussion shifted to gathering insights and opinions from other followers on the matter. One person wrote, “Can’t believe Alana is still scrambling for tuition money this late in the semester. What’s going on with her financial management?”

Another commented, “Doesn’t make sense! If she’s already on a show, shouldn’t she have some steady income? Something’s not adding up here.”

Someone else shared, “I feel for her, but why isn’t the payment going directly to the school? This seems a bit sketchy to me.”

Another user commented, “It’s sad to see Honey Boo Boo in this situation. But seriously, where has all her TV money gone?”

“Maybe there’s more to the story we don’t know. But asking for money online for school fees does raise some eyebrows,” A person wrote.

As reported, Mama June Shannon faced harsh criticism for taking her daughter, Honey Boo Boo earnings, as revealed during a recemt episode of Mama June: Family Crisis.

During a conversation about Alana’s intentions to relocate to Colorado for college, June confessed to taking money from Alana’s Coogan account, a trust fund established for child actors. Parents of child stars must legally deposit a portion of the child’s earnings into this account, which Alana can access once she reaches the age of 21.

Alana told cameras of her mother’s confession — “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.”

This whole situation has devasted Alana to the point that she’s considering suing her mother.for misappropriating funds from her earnings. The lawsuit will center around the unauthorized withdrawal of money from Alana’s Coogan account, a trust fund safeguarded by law to ensure child performers receive their rightful earnings when they reach adulthood. The controversy, stemming from years of financial disputes, reached a boiling point and Alana may be seeking justice for the financial mismanagement that reportedly depleted her savings, earmarked for her future and educational pursuits.
