However, it was unclear what would happen to Kaitlyn. Mama June seemed to think she was the best choice yet she had been estranged from Anna for years. It was not until right before Anna’s diagnosis that they seemed to reconcile. Anna wanted Eldridge to have custody but nothing ever got filed and, in the end, June got custody after a court battle with Michael Cardwell. The sisters, Kylee and Kaitlyn, have mourned the loss of Anna but are not together nearly enough. Now, it is the anniversary of Anna’s death and Kylee’s birthday so it is bittersweet.
