June Shannon hospitalized after a severe headache

During the 'Mama June: Family Crisis' Season 6 premiere, Shannon revealed multiple health issues during a breakfast date with Justin. However, the reality star later asked her husband to read the menu to her as she can barely see anymore due to untreated cataracts from her childhood. After knowing about the health scares, Justin admitted that he regrets marrying her. However, Shannon noted that she was emotionally messed up and shared she was going through some things. June assumed that Justin wanted a divorce from her, especially because of her ongoing health issues.

But Justin made it clear that he doesn't want a divorce and he just wanted to have a big wedding celebration. However, Justin and Shannon's emotional conversation didn't last very long as the reality star was rushed to the hospital. Shannon was hospitalized after she had severe headaches and dizziness. Notably, the reality star had no idea what was wrong with her. At the end of this week's episode, doctors ran tests on Shannon to go deep into the reality star's health scare.

Pumpkin worried about June Shannon

Soon after Shannon got hospitalized, her daughter Pumpkin called her up to ask about the $800 child support, which she was supposed to pay per month for Alana. During the latest episode, Shannon missed the most recent payment and Pumpkin called her and learned about June’s hospitalization. However, after she shared the news about her health condition, Pumpkin assumed she was on drugs again. However, Shannon insisted that she hadn't used drugs in the last three years.

New episode of 'Mama June: Family Crisis' Season 6 drops on Fridays at 9/8 pm ET/PT on We TV. You can also catch new episodes every Tuesday on the AMC streaming service ALLBLK.
