Mama June wants legal and physical custody of Anna Cardwell's daughter Kaitlyn
Mama June's daughter, Anna 'Chickadee' Cardwell, died from stage 4 adrenal cancer on December 9. June filed for the sole legal and physical custody of Anna's daughter Kaitlyn soon after her death noting that she had been close to her granddaughter.
However, June won the emergency legal guardianship of Kaitlyn on December 5. According to the court documents obtained by the outlet, June claimed she was the best person to care for her granddaughter. She noted in the court filing, "Since the mother's passing, child has remained in the care, custody and control of Petitioner."
