What’s Mama June’s Net Worth? Details on How the Reality Star Makes Money After ‘Toddlers’
Mama June: From Not to Hot star June “Mama June” Shannon has been on reality TV since 2012. After more than 10 years in the spotlight, Shannon still rakes in a pretty penny each month. However, according to Celebrity Net Worth, her net worth is less than impressive.
Days after it was announced that June had married boyfriend Justin Stroud after less than a year of dating in March 2022, In Touch confirmed that she had lost custody of her teenage daughter, Alana “Honey Boo Boo” Thompson, to her older daughter Lauryn “Pumpkin” Efird (née Shannon). Through court documents obtained by In Touch, June’s financial status was revealed.
What Is June’s Net Worth?
The mother of four has an estimated net worth of $100,000, according to Celebrity Net Worth.
How Much Money Does Mama June Make?
Shannon’s finances were revealed following her custody battle with Efird over Thompson.
While the Toddlers & Tiaras alum’s “only certain income is disability,” which amounts to just over $1,000 per month, the reality star brings in a whopping $25,000 per month, according to docs obtained by In Touch.
Though it’s unclear where the remaining $24k comes from, it’s safe to assume it is at least partly due to her hit WEtv series.
In addition to the show, the Georgia native has various business ventures to help subsidize her income, including a line of merchandise which she sells through her website and a 5-star rated Cameo profile where she charges fans $90 for a personalized video.
June also makes money as an Instagram influencer, through paid partnerships and ads shared to her followers.
How Does Mama June Spend Her Money?
Prior to her relationship with husband Stroud, Shannon dated Eugene “Geno” Doak. Their relationship drama was documented during season 1 of Mama June: From Not to Hot until their split in 2021, which she confirmed in August of that year. The former couple struggled with addiction together during their relationship had a toxic relationship for nearly five years, including substance abuse issues and domestic violence accusations.
After revealing they spent more than $150,000 on cocaine in a six-month span, as revealed on her spinoff Mama June: Family Crisis in June 2020, they accepted help and agreed to go to rehab.
“I always wake up every morning and tell myself I’m gonna stay clean for the next 24 hours,” she told Us Weekly in March 2021.
Does Mama June Pay Child Support?
Following her custody battle over Thompson, Shannon was required to pay $800 in child support per month to Efird, who now has sole custody of Thompson. However, the tense relationships between the family members were put on pause when Anna “Chickadee” Cardwell was diagnosed with cancer. Anna tragically passed on December 8, 2023.
Is Mama June Married?
Shannon and Stroud tied the knot in March 2022, though they celebrated their nuptials again during a second ceremony in Florida in February 2023.
All four of her daughters – including Jessica “Chubbs” Shannon and Cardwell – walked her down the aisle.
“This was the first time the family had all been together since 2014,” the reality star told Entertainment Tonight about the special occasion. “So it was really special to get married in a place where my family and I have had so many memories!”
Did Mama June Steal Alana Thompson’s Money?
Thompson accused Shannon of stealing money from her Coogan account after Efird discovered there was only $33,000 left during a March 2024 episode of Mama June: Family Crisis. The family created the account to hold the money Thompson earned as a child actor, and she was supposed to get the cash when she turned 18 in August 2023.
Shannon initially denied the claims, and later alleged that she spent the stolen cash on things for Thompson. “You have been taking care of your own self, paying your own bills since you were the age of 12,” she said at the time. “And you’ve been doing a good job of it.”
She quickly faced backlash from fans and explained the situation in a March 2024 TikTok video. After acknowledging that she owes Thompson $30,000, Shannon said that she planned to pay her back. However, she admitted the payment was delayed because she previously focused all of her attention on Cardwell’s cancer battle.
