ATLANTA, GEORGIA: 'Mama June: Family Crisis' Season 7 finale hinted at trouble in Mama June Shannon and Justin Stroud's marriage amid Honey Boo Boo's Coogan account's missing money. Despite these challenges, Justin and June remain married and were recently seen enjoying a romantic getaway to Panama Beach.

The married couple has been taking care of June's granddaughters, Kaitlyn, and Kylee, after the tragic death of Anna Cardwell. However, a teaser for the upcoming episode suggests a breaking point in June and Justin's marriage, as they engage in a heated argument over missing funds. In the preview, Justin asked June to debit $30,000 from their savings account and transfer it to Honey Boo Boo.

However, Justin made it clear that if June didn't return $30k Honey Boo Boo, he would leave the WETV show star. The fight intensified when June teased their marriage might not survive the drama.

The reality star said, "If you feel like this marriage is over for you and I been telling you this, maybe that’s the way the f*****g cookie is gonna crumble and I have to live with that."

June Shannon and Justin Stroud take a surprise trip to Colorado

June Shannon and Justin Stroud made an unexpected trip to Denver, Colorado, to surprise Honey Boo Boo, despite her clear request for Mama not to visit. Predictably, the surprise did not go over well, and Honey Boo Boo confronted her for stirring up more drama. Upon returning to their Georgia home, June and Justin found themselves embroiled in yet another dramatic argument.

Justin told June that it wasn’t a good idea to surprise Honey Boo Boo with the visit adding in the preview, "You see why do we not pull up on people?" June responded, "You act like Alana should not know if I was on that side of the world. That I wasn’t gonna go beep beep on top of her."

However, June insisted in the confessional that her daughters Honey Boo Boo, Anna Cardwell, Lauryn 'Pumpkin Efird, and Jessica 'Chubbs' Shannon had told her she was always welcome to visit them, even without an invite.

June Shannon defends stealing Honey Boo Boo's money

'Mama June' star June Shannon has been accused of stealing her daughter, Honey Boo Boo's money. The reality star has been insisting that she spent the money on her daughter's trips and other expenses but the viewers were not ready to believe her. However, June tried to defend herself again in a recent interview with ET and claimed, "I didn't really steal any money."

June further noted, "You will see on Friday, you know, like it's not hundreds of thousands of dollars that is in question. It's only one show and that's Dancing With the Stars." WETV show star explained, "Alana has around over $200,000 that she has access to but she is choosing not to have access to. She is making those decisions because she's 18. So there's more, there's definitely more money out there."
