What does Justin Stroud do for a living? Internet questions as Mama June's husband's flaunts 'fake' diamond watch
ATLANTA, GEORGIA: Justin Stroud, known as 'Mama June: Family Crisis' star June Mama June Shannon's husband, has a background as both a tattoo artist and an auto mechanic. His introduction to TLC's reality show came through his relationship with Mama June. In a recent Instagram post, Justin flaunted his latest purchase, a "Big Diamond bezel Cartier," a user questioned, "Did June buy it? Where do you work, by the way?" Justin clarified his occupation, stating, "When I’m not filming a TV show, I make shirts, cups, and other products, sell them, and do very well for myself."
Despite Justin asserting that he bought the diamond watch with his own earnings, online critics dispute its authenticity. One user claimed to have found an identical watch to Justin's on DHGate for $53.1, suggesting it could be a replica. Reacting to Justin's claim of wearing a genuine diamond watch, which is later revealed to be fake, a disgruntled user commented, "There’s nothing wrong with fake jewelry, but when you’re showing it off and saying it’s real…that’s just pathetic. It’s 2024, everyone has Google and can find things in under a minute."
Another called out Justin "Trash humans peddling trash products while wearing trash gear." "Such a loser," wrote another. "It looks cheap af real diamonds glitter when he moves his wrist blah," another mocked Justin.
A user called out Justin's cheap stunt, "That’s some really cheap crap!!" "Grifting and lying his way though life, he just screams sleazy and cheap. Nothing redeeming about him at all," wrote another.
