HAMPTON, GEORGIA: Recently, 'Mama June' star Justin Stroud went live to talk to his fans, asserting that the show is as much his as it is for everyone else. This statement sparked controversy on the internet, with many schooling him and expressing disagreement.

People pointed out that thinking the show belonged to him might be misguided, emphasizing that he wouldn't exist on the show without June Shannon.

Some even suggested that he could be fired or asked to leave the show if it weren't for Mama June's central role. Others labeled him a "clout chaser" and accused him of using Mama June for money and fame.

They voiced worries that if Mama June were to terminate their relationship, Justin might experience a fate similar to Geno Doak, dealing with potential consequences from both the show and public opinion.

"He can say and think that all he wants, but at the end of the day, the name of the show doesn’t mention Justin. And if they split he won’t be featured anymore just like Geno wasn’t, a user said on  Reddit.

"That just proves his real motives for being with June imo. He’s after the attention and money grab! Sadly he couldn’t care less about June or her grandchild and and his true colours are starting to show," added another. 

"Can’t stand him. Such a clout chaser and user," said a user while others bashed him for being arrogant and having zero- self-reflection.

"That’s the arrogance of an addict who’s done ZERO self-reflection…," said a user.

"He’s fixing to make her lose some money. Her followers and everything she fixing to be losing money because of him" added another user. "So delusional," called one user.
