Is Alana ‘Honey Boo Boo’ Thompson shacking up with Dralin?

When fans learned Honey Boo Boo (at the age of 16) was dating a 21-year-old named Dralin, they weren’t too happy about it. The age difference made them uncomfortable. Now, Honey Boo Boo is fast approaching the age of 18 and fans admit they still find the age gap to be unsettling.

Fans grew to dislike Dralin even more when he was arrested following a police chase while Honey Boo Boo was in the vehicle. Pumpkin and Mama June, however, point out that fans getting upset over the situation are forgetting Alana isn’t the little curly-haired girl they fell in love with years ago. She’s nearly an adult and she’s allowed to have a boyfriend. Mama June Shannon believes a large part of the reason fans have trouble accepting Dralin is that they still think of Alana as a much younger version of herself.

What fans really want to know, however, is where Alana ‘Honey Boo Boo’ Thompson is living right now. Legally, Pumpkin is the guardian of Honey Boo Boo. Moreover, Pumpkin is getting child support from Mama June because she is still Mama June’s child. With Alana having a serious boyfriend, fans question if she’s still at home with Pumpkin or if she’s living with her boyfriend.

Is there a legal issue if she’s living with her boyfriend? Could Pumpkin get in trouble for collecting child support if Alana doesn’t live there?

Pumpkin’s daughter Ella Grace spilled the beans

In chatter on Reddit, fans believe that Pumpkin’s daughter Ella Grace spilled the beans during a TikTok live about Alana’s living situation. The fan noted that Ella has said on a few different TikTok streams (when they were filming the previous season) that “Lana didn’t live her.” Fans were in agreement that Ella was far too young to lie to fans and was likely spitting facts. This same fan noted that Anna ‘Chickadee’ Caldwell has also confirmed Alana was living with Dralin.

So IMO the answer is yes. Going by Ella, she has lived with him for a long time. I don’t think Ella lied. Even though Pumpkin told her child she was lying.

Fans speculate that Honey Boo Boo likely lived with Dralin when she was 16 too based on the timeline of when Ella was spilling the beans on TikTok Live.

How do you feel about Alana living with Dralin? Most fans agree she’s almost 18 and it is probably fine now. But, they question if she should have been allowed to do so when she was just 16.
