Lauryn ‘Pumpkin’ Efird Calls Out Mama June, Says Take Responsibility
Lauryn Efird, affectionately nicknamed Pumpkin, has a lot on her plate. This is nothing new for the mom of two (possibly of four). She took in her teenage sister, Alana ‘Honey Boo Boo’ three years ago without hesitation. Now, after doing her best to hold on, she’s taking a stand against her mother’s behavior. What exactly did she say? Read on to find out.
Lauryn Efird, Mother To All
Stepping up to the plate is not for everyone. However, it seemingly came naturally for Pumpkin when her mother, Mama June went down a dangerous path. She had fallen in love with Geno Doak and was heavily into drugs. The two of them were a hot mess couple and had gone through all of June’s money. Pumpkin’s younger sister, Alana needed a safe place to go so her big sister took her in. She was a newlywed with a baby, Ella yet she proved that family came first. Soon, their other sister Jessica came to live with them, as well. June and Geno were busy getting arrested, going to rehab, and trying to clean up their lives.
Eventually, she tried to reenter her kids’ lives but they were always skeptical and with good reason. She was there when Pumpkin revealed the gender of her second baby and everyone was thrilled. Unfortunately, June was not in attendance when baby boy Bentley came into the world. This was a bitter pill for Pumpkin and her family to swallow but she was busy hiding out from Geno. She was getting ready to break up with him, which she ultimately did, and came to live with Pumpkin. Luckily, the Efird’s had bought a big new home with plenty of space. Sadly, June was back to her old tricks within a short time.
A Message To Mom
Lauryn Efird may or may not have had twins on May 19th. The family has yet to confirm anything so, at this point, it is all alleged. There are two life events that have been confirmed. First off, Mama June secretly married her boyfriend of five months, Justin Stroud in March. Then, Pumpkin was granted sole custody of Alana in April with June having to pay child support monthly. Additionally, it has become clear in the family series that June is back to her old ways. Once she left Geno, she returned to Pumpkin’s only to be fixated on a man named Jordan. She and Alana flew to California to film The Masked Singer but all she cared about was her new man. June even abandoned Alana at the airport.
Recently, Pumpkin sent a message, presumably to her mother. According to The Sun, she posted it on her private Facebook:
“Just putting this out into the air but it’s literally up to NO ONE but YOU to make sure you have a relationship with your grandkids, niece, nephew- etc. And if you don’t, you got no one to blame but you. If you wanna see them, drive. If you wanna call them, call. It is not- I repeat NOT up to the PARENT to make sure you know their child. They are way too busy raising said child/children & already being active in their lives to worry about how active you are. Kids won’t miss who they don’t know. The end.”
It seems she has finally had enough of June’s selfish behavior and the message is loud and clear. Are you proud of Pumpkin for speaking up? Let us know and watch Mama June: Road to Redemption Fridays on WeTV.

Hey guys this is for production of road to ademption June should have never had left a lol Alana Thompson alone in the airport herr right to see her should be taking away from her this is ridiculous and you guys should have done something she needs to to be charged for abondment cause that is my advice just throw it out and hope you guys have a great 🌃 to 🌃
June is toxic and narcissistic. I hope she is booted off the show very soon. So sick if seeing her trashy behavior. She is sick. How come she can abandon her minor child with ZERO consequences. Enough. Lock her up.
Was she serious? “So many men on social media want her.” She considers herself a “MILF”? My comments have nothing to do with her physical appearance. She has a filthy mouth, she is a terrible mother, she makes excuses for her behavior….had to go “help” guy? Seriously, again!?!? I can’t think of anyone who needs her help more than her daughter does! I understand she is the girls mother and they want so badly to see change. I’m so hurt for them that they are continuously let down.
On a different note, I would love for Pumpkin to know a few things…..I would be so PROUD to be your mother! You are a truly amazing young woman! I don’t care what is going on, the love that fills your home is evident! You are a great mother to your children, you give so much of yourself to your sisters and still are a good wife to your husband! Speaking of, he deserves some credit too. You both are so young to have to had experienced and endured so much, but you continue on and seem stronger with each hit. Y’all have set up things in your marriage to help one another but please continue to put your marriage in a place of priority. During the toughest times, hold hands, take a walk, go to dinner, do something to connect if just for a few minutes. You have a strong marriage and it would make me sad to hear of anything destroying that. Your husband is as amazing to me as you are! He may have his own beliefs and he is entitled, but he is raising your sister as if he wants/needs/feels obligated to just as much as you. He has stepped up and tries to be a father to her….a better father than she has experienced before him! I hope this doesn’t sound like rambling. I just wanted you to know people see what you are doing, accomplishing, giving up, and we are out in this world praying that life gets easier and you succeed in all you do! You deserve the best life has to offer!
