LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: In a recent episode of 'Mama June: Family Crisis,' tensions ran high as Mama June Shannon found herself embroiled in a financial dispute with her daughters, particularly Alana 'Honey Boo Boo' Thompson, reported by Daily Mail.

Mama June's husband stands up for daughters amid financial dispute

The sneak peek of the upcoming episode revealed a tense discussion between Mama June and Justin regarding the money spent from Alana's account.

On Friday's installment of 'Mama June: Family Crisis', it came to light that Mama June had taken money out of Alana's Coogan account—a trust into which child stars' parents are legally obligated to deposit a portion of their earnings.

Mama June's alleged mismanagement of funds had left Alana and her siblings concerned about their financial well-being.

In the upcoming episode, during a lunchtime conversation, Mama June attempted to justify her actions to Justin, citing taxes and other expenses. However, Justin wasn't convinced and expressed his disappointment in Mama June's handling of the situation.

Mama tells Justin, "I don't think you're understanding."

"I'm understanding. You don't June," Justin replies.

"Yes, not 100% of it went in there. But you have to think about the taxes, it takes 50%, plus you have to pay the state you live in at the time, so you have to pay California tax and you have to pay that," she explained. "But at the end of the day, like you're only gonna get $10,000, $6,000 or even $2."

As soon as Justin heard what June had to say, he shook his head.

In a confessional, Justin expressed, "June must think I'm some kind of idiot, Oh well, it's 50% tax in Cali. Cali's tax is high, but it ain't that high. Honestly, I really think she's trying to convince herself that she did the right thing."

"They didn't know June," Justin is heard telling Mama June. 

"They might act like they didn't know, but how do you think that you had what you had?" she asked. "Because Mama bought it," Justin said.

"Mama bought it. No, because the show that we were with," Mama June said.

Justin responded: "It's not even about this. It bothers them, but they just want you to be honest about the entire situation."

"I never lied to anybody going through the years or told Alana 'oh well you're gonna be set for life.' Alana know that she wasn't going to be set for life. If things might've been different, maybe," Mama June insisted.

Justin responded: "It's gotta be fixed and it's gotta be done right June. It's not just about you. It's not just your failings. For my peace of mind, I'm going to go make sure that we're all on the same page. 'Cause I don't want feelings to be hurt or people to stop calling and stop communicating because they feel like they have to."

'Honey Boo Boo' Alana Thompson playfully appeals to 'Shark Tank' for college funding 

Amidst a backdrop of familial financial turmoil, Alana Thompson, widely recognized as 'Honey Boo Boo' from the reality series 'Here Comes Honey Boo Boo,' has taken a creative approach to securing funds for her college education.

Following revelations that her mother, Mama June Shannon, reportedly spent a significant portion of her earnings, Alana turned to social media with a light-hearted but meaningful plea directed at the investors of 'Shark Tank.'

In a TikTok video shared with her followers, Alana charmingly sought $150,000 from the Sharks to support her pursuit of a nursing education. With her trademark wit and humor, she playfully offered a 10% equity stake in return, suggesting that she would become the go-to nurse for their family's little ones.

"Just kidding... or am I?" she wrote in the caption. "Sharks, if you're ready to make a deal, count me in! Oh, and let's keep the lashes hush-hush until my glam session tomorrow!"

Alana's playful appeal resonated deeply with her fans, who flooded the comments section with messages of support and encouragement. Many empathized with her situation and expressed solidarity, with some even advocating for legal action against Mama June to ensure Alana receives what is rightfully hers.
