Mama June Shannon of Honey Boo Boo fame is now the same size as many Hollywood actresses. In fact, the reality television star has undergone a massive weight loss transformation so much so that her family and friends don’t even recognize her anymore. Mama June used to weigh a whopping 460 pounds but has apparently dropped down to a size 4 thanks to her gastric sleeve surgery.
Mama June’s weight loss journey is part of her new WeTV documentary, ‘Mama June: From Not to Hot.’ ‘The Here Comes Honey Boo Boo’ star also got work done on her breasts, chin and arms. Mama June’s weight loss advisor Kenya Crooks even told People Magazine, “The Biggest Loser doesn’t have anything on this, The Swan won’t have anything on this — when I tell you this is the greatest transformation of all time. This thing is phenomenal. You won’t even be able to recognize her — her kids don’t even recognize her!”
There’s another reason why Mama June is looking different these days: she’s back on the dating scene. After dumping her ex Sugar Bear, she’s ready to look for love again. The couple separated back in 2014 after Mama June discovered that Sugar Bear was cheating on her. Even though they were together for several years, they tied the knot in a commitment ceremony in 2013. And now that Mama June is looking for love again, she wants to make sure that her new man is going to love her regardless of her fame or how she looks, for that matter.
And even though Mama June is now an entirely different person, her daughter Alana ‘Honey Boo Boo’ Thompson says her mother still struggles with her body image. She even says that Mama June sees herself as a heavier person even though she’s now more than half her size. Despite her struggle, Honey Boo Boo says she’s never seen her mother happier in her life.
So far no photos of Mama June Shannon and her incredible weight loss have been leaked. She’s been forced into hiding until the big reveal on her new television show. ‘Mama June: From Not to Hot,’ debuts on the WeTv network on Friday, February 24th.
