Mama June Shannon 2015 — Did TLC executives enrage "Here Comes Honey Boo Boo" star Mama June Shannon? Though the 35-year-old "Coupon Queen" is thrilled that TLC finally cancelled the Duggars' "19 Kids and Counting" series, she still believes that the family should have been given greater punishments.
Ever since TLC axed her family's show, "Here Comes Honey Boo Boo," a reality television series featuring the family of child beauty pageant contestant Alana "Honey Boo Boo" Thompson, Mama June Shannon has been allegedly urging the network's execs to cancel the Duggars' show after the sexual assault allegations of Josh Duggar broke out, TMZ reported.
Moreover, Mama June even threatened to sue TLC if the network failed to cancel the hit reality show of the Duggars following their own molestation scandal.
"I didn't even do anything. It was just speculation over, like, rumors. I never dated the guy, I never touched my kid - I think that's disgusting," Shannon said. "And our show was canceled immediately... It wasn't no break with us. It was like, seven hours after the news broke, cancelled!"
Despite the cancellation, TLC has still got a Duggars' documentary special in the works, which enraged Mama June Shannon as Jim Bob and Michelle's family is getting off the hook so easily.
"I feel it will be another situation for them to get paid for doing something bad," Mama June said. "Like, that kinda behavior is not okay."
Meanwhile, Mama June Shannon is currently working on her weight. According to Salon, Mama June had an impressive weight loss of 60 pounds. And the mom of four flaunted her achievement last week as she wore a red one-piece swimsuit, reminiscent of the '90s show "Baywatch," in Panama City, Florida.
Earlier this year, Mama June, who originally weighed 400 pounds, has reportedly been getting serious about her health, thus she made an effort to shed off some pounds. And during her family's summer outing in Florida on July 10, the former TLC star showcased her remarkable slimmed-down body a la "Baywatch" style, Us Weekly noted.
In March, Mama June was seen working out in Hollywood with celebrity personal trainer Natasha Kufa in an attempt to join NBC's "The Biggest Loser." As per Realty Today, the reality TV star has been juicing as part of her weight loss regimen.
Aside from Mama June Shannon, who will soon be appearing on the upcoming season of WE TV's "Marriage Boot Camp," with Sugar Bear, her daughters Alanna "Honey Boo Boo" Thompson and Lauryn "Pumpkin" Shannon have also shown improved figures.
