AceShowbiz - Honey Boo Boo a.k.a. Alana Thompson is making sure that her money is protected, especially from her mom June Shannon. The teen reportedly has made legal moves so that her mom, who has been caught in legal issue for gambling, can't touch her funds. TMZ is the first to report.
According to the news outlet, a representative for the 13-year-old "Here Comes Honey Boo Boo" star "recently had an attorney step in and move her money into a new account that Mama June can't touch." Sources further claimed that the family is deeply concerned Mama June might try to use her daughter's assets to fund her gambling and alleged drug habit ... so they want to make sure Honey Boo Boo's money is protected. "
However, Alana's sister Pumpkin (Lauryn Shannon), has been granted access to the account. The 19-year-old, who is also Alana's de facto guardian, will only be able to use the money to buy things for her little sister, and is required to show proofs of purchase and receipts as evidence for its use.
Recent report suggested that the former "Dancing with the Stars: Juniors" star is currently living with Lauryn. As for the reason for the move, it's said that Alana and her other sisters have decided to keep their distance from June and her drama. Meanwhile, June and her boyfriend Geno Doak were said to be living at the Wind Creek casino in Montgomery for the past few months. Eyewitness said June had been seen at least three times at the resort.
June and Geno were arrested last March after having a confrontation at a gas station in Alabama. A witness reported the couple's fight to police, who responded and sent officers to the scene. When police arrived, "they saw enough to arrest Geno Doak for domestic violence/harassment, felony possession of a controlled substance and drug paraphernalia." June was booked for felony possession of a controlled substance and drug paraphernalia.
The 43-year-old G&J Home Improvements CEO was ordered by a judge to stay away from his 39-year-old girlfriend due to his third-degree domestic violence charge stemming from the March arrest. Should the latest report be true, it means the couple defies the judge's order by living together.
