Viewers were first introduced to June Shannon aka Mama June on an episode of the bygone television series "Toddlers & Tiaras." The country quickly became obsessed with Shannon's daughter Alana Thompson, and TLC capitalized on the intrigue and gave her family their own reality show, "Here Comes Honey Boo Boo" (named for Thompson's moniker), that documented her pageant life, as well as her life at home with Shannon, her father Mike "Sugar Bear" Thompson, and her sisters.
The show ended for a variety of reasons, and Shannon eventually landed her own spin-off series, "Mama June: From Not to Hot," which showed her weight loss journey, but since that aired on We TV, loyal TLC fans didn't hear much about the pageant mom aside from what was reported in tabloids. In addition to her weight loss, Mama June has had significant turmoil with her children. She no longer has custody of Thompson, and the relationships with her other daughters are strained, as well. All the drama has been documented on "Mama June: Family Crisis," again airing on WE TV, and one episode of the show features Mama June attempting to see her daughters in hopes of fixing things. "All I want is a relationship with them, and hopefully this shows them I'm willing to go to whatever lengths to make this happen," Shannon says, as reported by ET.
