Mama June is best known for her time in the reality TV world. See her best photos here.
Born in August 1979, June Shannon came to fame in 2012 on the TLC show, Toddlers & Tiaras. Fans of the reality TV series about child pageant stars fell in love with June and her youngest daughter, Alana “Honey Boo Boo” Thompson. With the nickname Mama June, she seemed destined for fame on small screen. June and Alana were soon the stars of their very own reality TV series, Here Comes Honey Boo Boo, which featured more members of the family, including Mama’s three other daughters, Anna “Chickadee’ Cardwell, (who died in 2023) Jessica “Chubbs” Shannon and Lauryn “Pumpkin” Shannon. That show was pulled, however, in 2014.
