KEY POINTS

  • Pumpkin Shannon posted on Instagram new family photos without Mama June
  • One snap featured Honey Boo Boo’s older boyfriend Dralin Carswell
  • Pumpkin and Honey Boo Boo are rumored to be getting their own reality show

Lauryn “Pumpkin” Shannon showed off her family on Instagram, but the photo she shared did not include her controversial mom, Mama June Shannon.

On Saturday, the 22-year-old “Mama June: Road to Redemption” star uploaded a series of snaps on the photo-sharing platform. The first image showed her and her husband Josh Efird, 25, surrounded by their four children: Ella Grace, 4, Bentley Jameson, 1, and newborn twins Stella Renae and Sylus Ray.

Also present in the snap are Pumpkin's sister Alana “Honey Boo Boo” Thompson, 16, and her boyfriend Dralin Carswell, 20. The family posed in front of the Universal Studios Globe Fountain in Los Angeles, California. Another snap taken from a different angle showed the reality family without Dralin.

“Thank you to [Universal Studios] for the tickets, we had the BEST time!!” Pumpkin wrote in the caption.

Honey Boo Boo shared the same photos on her Instagram and thanked the theme park and entertainment resort complex. She also said that they will return for another visit in the future.

Fans flooded the siblings’ posts with positive comments, with many of them saying that the family deserved a vacation after everything they went through with Mama June.

“Aww! I love these pics! Love your family. Keep up the good work, Pumpkin and Josh!!! You have so much love to offer! So proud of you both!” one wrote.

“The family that truly deserves a vacation,” another commented.

“Wonderful! Well-deserved family fun,” a third user added.

The posts came a day before the family’s scheduled meet and greet in West Hollywood. Earlier in the week, Pumpkin announced that they will host an event where fans will get the chance to take photos with them and buy their official merch.

Rumors recently surfaced that Pumpkin and Honey Boo Boo could be working on a new reality show that would not include Mama June. The Blast ran a story claiming that the sisters will meet with a top shot later this month to iron out the deal, but International Business Times could not independently verify this information.

The sixth season of “Mama June: Road to Redemption” is still ongoing. On the show, Mama June’s daughters appear to be determined to keep their distance from her after all the troubles she caused them.

Last month, a judge in Georgia officially granted Pumpkin sole physical custody of her younger sister. The move came years after Mama June abandoned her daughters in March 2019.

“Road to Redemption” airs Fridays at 9 p.m. EDT on We TV.
