Alana “Honey Boo Boo” Thompson has had enough of her father Sugar Bear’s antics. The 13-year-old reality star bravely exposed her father’s dirty laundry this week.

On Monday, the “Here Comes Honey Boo Boo” star and sister Lauryn “Pumpkin” Thompson stopped by OK! Magazine to promote the return of their mother’s reality series “Mama June: From Not To Hot.” During the interview, Alana candidly spoke about her relationship with their dad, whose real name is Mike Thompson.

“The only time I ever see him is if we’re filming with him which is very rarely,” Honey Boo Boo said of her rocky relationship with Sugar Bear. “And I tell myself all the time like I’m not gonna put effort into something like there’s no effort already being put in from the other person.”

Alana continued by saying that she feels like her father doesn’t really care for her, so she’s also giving him the same treatment. When she’s asked if she has explained to her dad that she wants to see him, Honey Boo Boo said that she has already confronted Mama June’s ex about this issue.

According to her, she has informed Sugar Bear that they should have a better relationship and that they should see each other at least once a month. Lauryn then chimed in to reveal that their father has been sending the same text message to her younger sister over and over again. But Alana clarified that Sugar Bear only texts her about once a month.

“He wouldn’t even know my birthday if I asked him right now,” Alana said. “He’d be like it’s sometime in August so I know and it’s not hard to remember my birthday’s only Aug. 28. It’s not that hard.”

When she’s asked why she thinks Sugar Bear doesn’t want to be part of her life, Honey Boo Boo said that it’s possibly because she isn’t a boy. She then explained that when Mama June told Sugar Bear that she was having a girl while she was still pregnant with Alana, her father didn’t “want” her.

Honey Boo Boo then made a bold claim when she said that Sugar Bear pays more attention to current wife Jennifer Lamb’s son, Joseph, than her. She added that this is all because she’s a girl and her father always wanted a boy.

In the premiere episode of “Mama June: From Not To Hot” Season 3, Sugar Bear showed up at Mama June and Alana’s going away party because they are going to Hollywood for “Dancing With the Stars.” He brought along his famous moonshine to share with the adult guests.

Sugar Bear raised his glass for Alana after the latter poured him a drink. He then said that he thinks his daughter is going to win and that he’s so proud of her. He also claimed that Honey Boo Boo definitely “got her dancing moves from her daddy.” However, Alana disagreed with her father and said, “Oh, no. Did not get my dance moves from my dad at all.”

“Mama June: From Not To Hot” airs Fridays at 9 p.m. on WE tv.
