“Mama June” Shannon has been amidst a lot of legal drama over the course of the year, and her family is reportedly “deeply concerned” about her. According to TMZ, sources close to Shannon and her family say that she has not communicated with them over the past weeks, and that she has been living in hotels. She reportedly texts her daughters occasionally, but other than that they are said to not have physical or frequent contact with her.
Shannon’s troubles started earlier this year when she and her boyfriend, Geno Doak, were arrested on drug charges. They subsequently pleaded not guilty, and will likely have to appear in court again sometime soon.
