However, Pumpkin then took temporary custody of Alana after Shannon was arrested on possession of a controlled substance and drug paraphernalia charges alongside her boyfriend Eugene 'Geno' Edward Doak, who had a third-degree domestic violence charge. Pumpkin then became the legal guardian of Alana in 2019 and won full custody of her half-sister in June 2022. Alana currently lives with her sister Pumpkin and her husband Joshua Efird in Gordon, Georgia. Alana will reside at Pumpkin's house until she turns 18 in August 2023. She has been dating Dralin Carswell since 2021 and recently graduated from high school.
