June Shannon, known as ‘Mama June,’ faced concerns and speculation about a possible relapse after an erratic livestream on her TikTok account earlier this week.
During the stream, the 44-year-old reality television personality displayed erratic behavior while addressing her fans, expressing frustration at them for ‘speaking on my name,’ as reported by TMZ.
Denial of Relapse Claims:
Amidst the swirling rumors, Mama June vehemently refuted claims of a relapse. She categorically denied using drugs again and asserted that she has remained ‘straight sober since Jan 27, 2020.’
Addressing the speculations, she emphasized her commitment to sobriety, highlighting her abstinence from drugs, cigarettes, and alcohol.
Live Stream Explanations:
Mama June clarified the context of the livestream, explaining that she was engaged in cooking while interacting with her fans.
Due to being blind in her right eye, she mentioned the difficulty she faced in reading the constant flow of text comments, which prompted her to partially slip out of view.
The reality television personality shared that her focus was on engaging with fans and not on any substance use.
Weekly Drug Tests and Autonomy:
To underscore her dedication to sobriety, Mama June revealed that she undergoes weekly drug tests, a requirement for the production of her show, “Mama June: From Not To Hot.”
She asserted that these tests do not solely ‘keep me clean,’ emphasizing her personal commitment and autonomy in maintaining her sobriety.
History of Struggles and Past Incidents:
Mama June has grappled with substance abuse issues, as evidenced by a 2019 arrest for drug possession in Alabama.
Together with her then-boyfriend Geno Doak, she missed a scheduled hearing in September 2020, leading to time spent in a rehabilitation facility in January 2020.
The couple eventually split, and Mama June later entered a new chapter with Justin Stroud, marrying him in March of the following year.
Candid Reflection on Addiction:
In a recent interview with Us Weekly, Mama June openly discussed her struggles with addiction, acknowledging the impact of having financial means to fuel her habit.
She candidly admitted that her former priorities have shifted, now focusing on ‘my sobriety and mending my relationships with the kids.’ Despite acknowledging not having much, she expressed a goal to ‘live day by day.’
Mama June’s forthright statements reflect a commitment to her journey of sobriety and the ongoing challenges she faces while navigating public scrutiny and personal growth.
