Here Comes Honey Boo Boo Cast News: Mama June Spends Daughter’s Trust Fund Money on Child Molester Boyfriend
During a recent interview with E!, "Here Comes Honey Boo Boo" star, Anna Marie "Chickadee" Cardwell explained her belief that her mother Mama June stole $30,000 of her trust fund money to spend on her alleged boyfriend and child molester, Mark McDaniel.
"I have a feeling Mama used that money to buy a car or buy him what he wanted," she told E! News.
Cardwell revealed that only $17.90 remains in her trust fund account.
Despite her daughter's claims, Mama June insists that she has no affiliation with McDaniel.
"I have never brought a car for him and all her money is there, beside the money I have given her to live on-$400 every month and pay her $475 each month for cell phone bills for the last two years. That's the only money I have taken out of there," Mama June told E!
Still, Cardwell, 20 claims that her mother is "selfish" and continued her relationship with McDaniel despite knowing that he molested Cardwell when she was 8-years-old.
"You're 8 years old, you don't know. To me, it was kinda like, oh, get off me, it hurts," Cardwell described the abuse. "'Stay off and leave me alone.' And I'd just go to sleep and cry."
Cardwell's grandmother, Sandra Hale also spoke out against Mama June and McDaniel during a recent interview with Entertainment Tonight.
Hale revealed that she took Cardwell "to the police station and filed the charges on her behalf because she was a minor," following the abuse Cardwell allegedly suffered at the hands of McDaniel.
"I was looking out for [Anna's] best interests and I wasn't going to let this go away," Hale added.
In addition to her children and her mother, Mama June's ex-husband Sugar Bear is also suffering from the scandal surrounding Mama June.
Last week, an ambulance was called for Sugar Bear, who passed out in his home in Georgia.
At the time, Entertainment Tonight named stress as the cause of Sugar Bear's collapse.
ET reported that the "Honey Boo Boo" patriarch's collapse was a result of the stress he's experiencing from Mama June's scandal.
