As it turns out, Vanleer isn’t the only one who is of the opinion that Mama June was wearing facial prosthetics. A slew of her followers lashed out on social media to accuse her of wearing a fat suit. Check out other fan reactions regarding Mama June’s alleged prosthetic makeup here.
Whether or not she was wearing prosthetic makeup, there’s one fact that remains: Mama June has managed to lose a lot of weight.
Last week, Mama June’s daughters, Lauryn “Pumpkin” Shannon and Alana “Honey Boo Boo” Thompson spoke out about their mother’s weight loss.
“She had gastric sleeve back in May of 2015, and then she slowly started losing weight, and the reason she got the gastric sleeve was because she hit a plateau — she couldn’t lose any weight,” Lauryn said during an interview with ET. “And then it came to a point where [the trainer] had to step in because she hit another plateau with the gastric sleeve, and wasn’t losing any more weight.”
“Her stomach started looking gross,” Lauryn said. “It was hanging from where she lost so much weight, and her arms and her chin, so she got [the skin on] her stomach removed. She got her boobies done. She got them from a 44 long to 36 up.”
