Mama June Shannon Marries Husband Justin Stroud in ‘Intimate’ and ‘Glamorous’ 2nd Ceremony | “It Was Really Special”

Congratulations are in order for Mama June Shannon and Justin Stroud as they married each other for a second time. On February 18, Shannon and Stroud "celebrated their love in front of family in friends with a glamorous and intimate oceanfront ceremony" in Panama City, Florida, as per TODAY.

Shannon's daughters, Alana "Honey Boo Boo" Thompson and Lauryn "Pumpkin" Efird, Jessica "Chubbs" Shannon and Anna "Chickadee" Cardwell as well as June's grandchildren Stella, Sylus, and Bentley Efird attended the ceremony, per PEOPLE.

"This was the first time the family had all been together since 2014," said Shannon. "So it was really special to get married in a place where my family and I have had so many memories!" Shannon wore a halter-style dress from David's Bridal, while Stroud wore a tuxedo from E&S Formal in Montgomery, Alabama, which he paired with Jordans. 

"We wanted to have a small and very intimate wedding, so we didn't have any groomsmen or bridesmaids," said Shannon. "All four of my girls walked me down to Justin, and his mom walked him down the aisle," she added. The couple's cake (made by Cakes By Ricca) consisted of six different flavors, and the newlyweds had their first dance as husband and wife to Ed Sheeran's Thinking Out Loud, per KTVB.

Shannon first married her boyfriend of less than a year at a Georgia courthouse on March 23, 2022. The couple confirmed they had tied the knot on their six-month anniversary in a video posted to her Instagram on June 1.

"We're here today to clear up some rumors," she said. "[We] are off the market. Guys, you know what, when you know, just know." She added later, "That's right, no jokes, I really was scared of the M-word, but hey, Justin made me not be scared of it anymore because he wifey-ed me up." She also flaunted her glittering ring, with a blinged-out blue manicure, for her followers.

In 2014, Shannon was romantically linked to convicted sex offender Mark McDaniel, which led to the cancellation of her TLC series Here Comes Honey Boo Boo. That same year June's daughter Anna revealed that she was a victim of McDaniel starting when she was 8 years old. She told PEOPLE that he "would try and touch [her] and all that stuff" when he was dating her mother.

Five years later, in 2019, Shannon was arrested for possession of a controlled substance and drug paraphernalia, as reported by PEOPLE. Her boyfriend at the time, Geno Doak, was also arrested and charged with third-degree domestic violence, possession of a controlled substance and possession of drug paraphernalia.

She later revealed she and Doak had a "$2,500 a day" meth addiction. In August 2020, Shannon posted on Instagram that she was six months sober, writing, "It's probably the most thing I'm proud of."

Shannon's wedding will be featured in an upcoming episode of Mama June: FamilyCrisis premiering May 5 at 9 p.m. ET on WE tv.
