Mama June: From Not to Hot: Stepmom Jennifer Thompson Vowed To Get Custody Of Alana Thompson
In a preview of tonight’s Mama June: From Not to Hot: Family Crisis season finale, Alana burst into tears as her stepmother, Jennifer Thompson, threatened to take custody of 20-year-old Pumpkin.
Jennifer told the family, “First of all, honey, let me tell you something, I’m nothing like your mother, I’m not a junkie. “Second, let me tell you something, I’m a mom none of you ever will be.”
The Lauryn Shannon returned fire: “Now I have her custody. Jennifer then said, “No, go back. You have temporary custody of Alana, not complete.”
Lauryn Shannon said, “It will be full custody. We all know the real reason you want Alana Thompson is because you’re Honey Boo Boo’s stepmom.”
Alana Thompson then yelled, “You’ll always make decisions about my life and I’ll never be able to make them for myself. And if I want to live with Pumpkin…”
Alana then started crying hysterically as her 2-year-old niece hugged her. Alana Thompson broke down several times during the season because she missed her mother, and had to deal with Pumpkin and Jennifer arguing over custody.
The Sun only broke Mama June, June 40, and Geno went into rehab in the season finale as they entered a 30-day program. The family therapist, Dr. Ish Major, told the Sun that they went into rehab when they “hit rock bottom.
She told The Sun, “He’s thinking, ‘I’m running out of money, I’m selling my stuff, I have legal problems, maybe it’s time to ask for help. She finally got to the part where she was ready to act.
“They went in very discreetly, very quietly, once they hit rock bottom they went to a treatment center in Florida. It’s a win, I’ll take it!”
Dr. Ish had already told The Sun that Mama June is currently “in communication” with her four daughters, Anna, Jessica, Pumpkin, and Alana, from Florida, where she currently lives with Geno.
She said, “The family is being burned. We tried and we never succeeded.” We poured resources, time, attention and affection into you, and none of it worked.” The family is like, “Listen, we’re done.” We’re aggravated.” It’s a very complicated way to reintroduce yourself back into the family”.
He continued: We love you, but we’ll love you from here.” The last thing I did with Pumpkin was help her understand boundaries. If you can’t behave properly, if you can’t make better decisions for you and for us, then you can’t be a part of our lives.
The only way to say that is time. This is June earning her place in the family.”
Dr. Ish revealed that the family has Skype calls and other forms of communication planned to see if June is doing well.
She added, “They’re rebuilding trust. That’s what you said you’ll do, let’s see if you can do it.” History says you won’t. If you do, then we can take the next step. This is how you work to get back into the family and we can trust each other again.”
Jennifer is a bully, so threatened by June. The show would be so much better without her and that coward Sugar Bear. Let the family deal with their problems without having to be bullied!
I think that stupid woman only wants to be Alana stepmom because she thinks she will be in the spotlight but she is too ugly for that an anI know Alana mom is having troubles with addiction be still she needs to stay out of it an go on with her own business if she has any
Lady you need to leave that family alone, you are just doing it to get back at Alana’s mom, you are just traumatizing Alana.
Wait till Jennifer finds out Honey Boo Boo is old enough to decide where she will live
Im sorry but that fat hog needs to sit back take care of her own son and get the hell out Alana ‘s and real family life actions speak louder then words and as the country sees sugar bear dont want custody so leave the family alone
Mama June is a waste of good energy,what kind of a mother gets on TV bragging about wearing 2 thousand dollar tennis shoes after losing one of her daughters vehicles,causing Alana and Pumpkin to go Into hiding and the family,stating out of her own mouth she lost everything of her children’s because she snorted it or shot it and she owed drug dealers 2500 a day.She is the worst mother on the planet.BY FAR
She only wants Alana so she can get the contracts and the game and more air time. You can tell Mike does not want to be a full-time parent. I think Pumpkin is doing just fine with Alana. Alana is old enough to make her own choice where she wants to love and she has made it clear she does not want to be with her dad or Jennifer
I have never liked Jennifer. She’s a shit stirrer and just wants to be in Spotlight. She think she’s all that but I think she looks kind of gross and she’s got a nasty attitude. She needs to mind her own business And leave the family alone
Pumpkin is doing a great job with Alana. Jennifer needs to stay out of Alanas life. She would be very unhappy and probably become depressed if she lived with her father and Jennifer. Jennifer just wants the fame and more TV time. She doesn’t really care for Alana.
Jennifers insecurities are showing. She thinks sugar bear is a prize. She thinks she is better than Mama June. She needs to be reminded that he cheated on Mama June with her. Everyone can see that Sugar bear doesnt want custody of Alana. Pumpkin and Josh, for as young as they are, seem to be doing a good job of raising their baby and Alana. Jennifer probably wants Alana’a money or child support from Mama June or both.
Jennifer will never be Mama June !! And sugar bear will never be a man. He is more like a whipped puppy. They need to leave Alana alone !!! Alana is happy where she is, yes she misses her mom and one day June will get it back together. Until then Pumpkin keep up the good work. You and your husband are doing a fine job.. Sending y’all lots of prayers and love.
Sugar bear. Has no proof Alana is even his daughter, and even if she is his he never paid child support for her,. There has to be proof and back child support and parenting classes before they can even talk about child support and they would have to prove that she was living in a bad environment before they could think about taken Alana away from her family and Alana is old enough to choose who she wants to stay with. She is with family and she has a roof over head. she is in school and has plenty to eat. The girl is doing fine as long as Sugar bear and Jennifer stay away from her. Give the poor girl a break and just let her be ; considering her mom is working her problems out, but is not in her life at the moment, they haven’t a leg to stand on. Jennifer leave this family alone and Alana can see mike if she wants after there is a real blood test and proof that he is her father.
Jennifer is always trying to compete with either June or Pumpkin, she really wants there lives. With Alana she’ll get the attention and the money she’s always wanted. I hope the courts take into consideration sugar pig I mean bear doesn’t want the responsibility of Alana.
I don’t think I’ve ever had such strong feelings for a person I don’t even know but I literally hate that fat, jealous, evil cow Jennifer!! My feelings for that toothless psycho uncaring Moron she’s married too aren’t much better! Dear God don’t those two idiots realize what those girls are going through?? She’s trying so hard for her 15 mins of fame! Too he’ll with destroying a kids life, she wants to be famous….ain’t happening Bitch!
I’m 65 years old and went thru a custody battle between my parents and a sister that lasted from 3rd grade all thru high school. It was terrible to live thru and had lasting effects on my life.
Thank God for a GREAT therapist I had to help me put my shattered life back together
