Mama June Shannon and her family continue to mourn the loss of family member Anna Cardwell. It has been a challenging time for all concerned. The family will never be the same. Sadly, Anna leaves behind two young daughters. Arrangements have been made for their care, and it looks like Mama June and her husband, Justin Stroud, are about to become parents, and fans are furious.
Mama June Shannon Gets Custody of One of Anna Cardwell’s Daughters
Mama June Shannon is facing a kind of pain that all mothers fear: losing one of their children. WEtv fans know that after Anna Cardwell’s stage four cancer diagnosis early this year, things were bleak. June and her daughters Lauryn, Jessica, and Alana stepped up to help care for Anna in her time of need. Unfortunately, despite her fight, the disease took Anna away from her family and two young daughters.
In a surprising turn of events, TMZ reports that Anna’s daughters will now be separated. Mama June Shannon and her husband, Justin Stroud, will raise Kaitlyn, 11, while her younger sister Kylee, 8, will live with her father, Michael Cardwell.
Most Mama June: Family Crisis fans are in a state of shock that Mama June Shannon will be taking custody of Kaitlyn. Many are angry. The fans are speaking out on Reddit. They are heartbroken that the two sisters will now be split up. But that is not all they are upset about. They are having trouble believing that anyone would allow June Shannon to have custody of the child, considering her very public and troubling past.
WEtv Fans Outraged
Fans are furious. They claim Mama June Shannon’s past speaks for itself. Her past problems with money, men, and drugs are no secret. They say she couldn’t even take care of her children. It is well documented on the Mama June: Family Crisis reality series just how severe and dangerous June’s life has been. She even lost custody of her youngest daughter Alana (Honey Boo Boo) Thompson to her daughter Lauryn (Pumpkin) Efrid.
Considering all of that, it is understandable why fans are concerned. Of course, it is early, so someone could step forward and challenge Mama June’s custody plans. But who would that be? Lauryn has four young children of her own. Alana is barely 18 and in college, but there are a couple of other options, per the fans. They claim they would rather see Jessica or Aunt Doe Doe (Jo Shannon) step forward.
The WEtv Mama June: Family Crisis followers have a lot to say on the matter. They want to see Anna Cardwell’s daughters well cared for and with a loving family member. If Mama June Shannon does get custody, fans hope someone steps up to fight it. They say even if June wants a second chance at motherhood, she doesn’t deserve it. They say Anna Cardwell’s kids deserve better. Do you agree it would be scary to see Mama June Shannon and Justin Stroud as parents?
