Pumpkin and Honey Boo Boo evicted from home after failing to pay $1,242 rent despite being worth millions
Lauryn 'Pumpkin' Shannon, her husband Josh Efird and her younger sister Alana 'Honey Boo Boo' Thompson have been evicted from their home as they have been struggling with their estranged mother, Mama June.
The family has had their set of problems on the show and in reality. The children, however, may have racked up enough moolah in the process and while the eviction may seem shocking, we think they will find a way out of this hot mess.
Alana Thompson, more sweetly and popularly known as Honey Boo Boo, is considered to be a reality star. She had her own reality series, TLC's 'Here Comes Honey Boo Boo' that ran from 2012-2013 and continued to rise to fame as she also appeared on TLC's 'Toddlers & Tiaras'. Furthermore, the now 14-year-old was also part of her mother's reality series 'Mama June: From Not to Hot.' Not to mention the child has been a guest on many interview TV shows such as 'Jimmy Kimmel Live' and 'The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon'.
With all these in her books, it seems as though Thompson is estimated to have a net worth of $500,000 as of 2020 with reports that her family had earned $50,000 per episode with 'Here Comes Honey Boo Boo'.
As for Alana's sister, Lauryn 'Pumpkin' Shannon, 17, she had an estimated net worth of $1M - $5M in the year 2019. Her net worth as of 2020 is yet to be reported.
It would be great if mother Mama June, who is reportedly worth a lot more, could step in but that seems to have hit a dead end. Mama June had reportedly left her family for her boyfriend Geno Doak, and her children were evicted from the Georgia home they were renting. Papers obtained by The Sun revealed that Lauryn's husband Josh Efird failed to pay the September rent of $1,242 and was sued while also being charged an additional $95 as late fees.
Josh, who was served on September 11, 2019, did not open his door and so the summons was posted to the door of the house. Josh was further ordered to leave the property along with his belongings on October 10, 2019, but was not required to pay the past due rent or the late fees that were earlier demanded.
Mama June, 40, abandoned her two daughters and went with Geno, who is nothing but bad news. The duo was also arrested for possessing crack cocaine and a crack pipe in March 2019. In October 2019, the attorney on their case put in the plea of "not guilty" and the trial has been set for May 2020.
In October 2019, Mama June had sold the family's Georgia home and suffered a huge loss. Additionally, they also seem to be up to no good as they were apparently kicked out of a hotel in January for not paying their $2,000 bill. Meanwhile, Mama June wore a diamond ring that seems to have been worth $1,500 and she is also selling videos on Cameo for 30 bucks.
