Mama June Lauryn ‘Pumpkin’ Efird Breaks Silence About Breakup
Fans were floored to learn that Lauryn ‘Pumpkin’ Efird had filed for divorce from Josh Efird on August 1st, 2024. They appeared to be fairly happy despite all of the sadness the family had gone through over the last year. Pumpkin’s eldest sister, Anna Cardwell was diagnosed with stage 4 adrenal carcinoma and it was an uphill battle. Sadly, she passed in December 2023 and Josh noted he had never seen his wife in such a dark place. He had hoped she would find her way out but it was unclear if and when.
Shortly after the season ended, Pumpkin filed for divorce and some felt it was for a storyline. However, Pumpkin was allegedly seeing a man named Darrin Kitchens while Josh had moved on with a pregnant woman named Keely. There have also been rumors that they are swingers and their new partners are very close. With all of this circulating, Pumpkin hopped on her Facebook to speak up for the first time since filing for divorce. She decided to say what she felt necessary but still kept it vague.
She acknowledged she and Josh have been apart for months and it has not been easy to love and let go. Yet, they will always work together for their four children but are not speaking publicly after this statement. Lauryn ‘Pumpkin’ Efird’s followers were immensely supportive:
- You’re allowed to do what’s best for your children and yourself EVEN if it makes other ppl mad. Hope all is well
- mic drop baby
- I love you and everything will be just fine!
All For Show?
Though Lauryn ‘Pumpkin’ Efird’s followers felt she addressed this perfectly, others were not so sure. They started a Reddit thread believing this was all for a Mama June storyline:
- More like we can’t talk about it cause it’s going to be on the next season!
- right what private are they talking about? None of them work or have real jobs they get paid to have their personal lives exploited.
- They have a whole TV show the only reason she’s not speaking on it is bc they hope to profit from it via WeTV.
- 😂I put everything on the internet but now I want privacy, what a joke of a family.
Others were not even remotely convinced that Pumpkin wrote this statement. So, there are a lot of mixed emotions about this. Time will tell if this was all just a ploy for another season. It would be really sad if they went through a divorce with four young children for a storyline and ratings.
Do you think Pumpkin has to stay quiet for television or does she really need space from it all? Let us know in the comments below.

I think they need there privacy, weather they’re swangers are not. it’s their life and they do as they see fit. my family love yall pumpkin and we love the mama June TV show❤️❤️
they have their right to privacy and ad such it should be respected. if people can’t do that then stop wstching the show
we are all very shocked because we are just learning about it when in all reality The marriage has been dissolving for some time.They didn’t decided in one day to just fall out of love and get divorced, Give then a little more credit they are great parents so they knew what need to be done and how to go about it for the sake of the children and how they can still be great parents..
I love pumpkin shes avery cool loving mother and sister to help raise her sister Alana and make sure she went to college I wish her andher family the best of luck. You go girl
The fact it’s literate makes its authenticity dubious!
