Folks, Honey Boo Boo’s mom is officially off the market.
Well, it might be mid-February, but reality TV’s most famous mom just happened to be a June bride!
According to a press release from WeTV, June Shannon and Justin Stroud got married over the weekend.
The couple reportedly exchanged vows in an “intimate seaside ceremony” at SpringHill Suites in Panama City, Florida.
Now, you may be experiencing some deja vuas June and Justin were first married in March last year.
But it’s just a small, court affair, and this is the kind of glamorous ceremony that June can look back fondly for the rest of her life.
In a surprising development, it seems that all of June’s daughters and grandchildren are present for the fun event.
According to a press release, Shannon’s daughters Alana “Honey Boo Boo” Thompson and Lauryn “Pumpkin” Efird, Jessica “Chubbs” Shannon and Anna “Chickadee” Cardwell were there, as well as grandchildren Stella, Sylus and Bentley Efird attended the party. .
If you have followed this family through many, many ups and downs, then you know how surprising it is that everyone can set aside different things for the big day in June.
To this day, Alana and Lauryn do not speak to their mother, and there are times when it seems that they will never forgive her.
“This is the first time the family has been together since 2014,” Mama June was quoted as saying in a press release (via people magazine).
“So it’s really special to get married in a place where my family and I have so many memories!”
June then to reveal that she and Justin wanted to make this wedding an occasion for VIPs only.
“We wanted to have a small and very intimate wedding, so we didn’t have groomsmen or bridesmaids,” she told WeTV.
“All four girls walked me to Justin, and their mom walked them down the aisle.”
If you’ve been following Mama June’s saga for the past few years, then we don’t need to tell you that she’s seen some dark moments.
June’s relationship with Geno Doak sends her down a self-destructive path, and there are times when the people she loves fear for her life.
Today, June and Geno are both reported to be sober, after leaving what was clearly an unhealthy relationship for both of them.
As for Juni equally-alliterative and Justin, they could have raised some eyebrows by getting married after only a few months of dating, but Juni seems happy and – just as important – her daughter approves of the relationship.
We wish these two all the happiness in the world.
It is certainly well deserved.
