Mama June and Justin Stroud put on united front in NYC

Here Comes Honey Boo Boo star Mama June was spotted walking around New York with husband Justin Stroud on Friday.

The 43-year-old reality star had a courthouse wedding to Justin, 35, last March before a full family ceremony in February.

As they soaked up the sun in the city that never sleeps this week, Justin and June were seen walking arm in arm, looking at the paragon of marital bliss.

At one point, they sat down together on a park bench, where June could be seen staring lovingly at Justin as they happily chatted.

Their united front comes after a new clip from her reality show Mama June: Family Crisis exposed some cracks in their relationship.

The program, which has lifted the curtain on June’s turbulent family life and battle with addiction, premieres this Friday.

Leading up to the episode, a promotional clip showed Justin taking June to dinner and confessing his regrets about their relationship.

“You know, this isn’t how I wanted this to go,” he told his stunned wife. “Like, this whole marriage, you know, like, and how it went, like that’s not what I wanted, like that’s not how I wanted it to go.”

When June pointed out that he “signed the papers too” at the courthouse, he countered that “you asked me in jail.” You know, it happened when I was in prison.’

Justin admitted that he “couldn’t really handle” the courthouse circumstances of their first marriage, “to be honest.”

He continued, “I was emotionally messed up, I was going through some things. Life is not where I wanted to be at that moment. You know, I just got out of rehab not too long ago, and just, I wasn’t there emotionally in June.”

However, when June asked if he didn’t like her “emotionally,” he seemed perplexed and asked, “What are you talking about?”

June became convinced that he wanted to “pull out of the marriage” because she had “all these medical issues,” but he assured her it wasn’t.

Meanwhile, June recently reunited with her daughter Anna ‘Chickadee’ Cardwell in the wake of her cancer diagnosis – just weeks after it was reported that she was working on their bond to mend their strained relationship.

The mother of four – full name June Shannon – and her 28-year-old daughter appeared to have put their troubled past behind them as they smiled together for a selfie in a hospital room.

Chickadee – who was diagnosed with stage 4 adrenal cancer – also posed for a selfie wearing a red medical cap.

It was a family affair when they started Chickadee as Mama June was also joined by husband Justin Stroud alongside her daughters Alana ‘Honey Boo Boo’ Thompson and Lauren ‘Pumpkin’ Efird.

Chickadee’s 10-year-old daughter Kaitlyn Elizabeth Clark was also seen sitting on her mother’s lap in a selfie.

The group was later seen wearing yellow medical face masks as they left the hospital as they formed a united front.

This was reported earlier this month TMZ that June cherished the bond with her daughter, even though their relationship had been strained in recent years.

Insiders told the site that Mama June and Cardwell started mending their relationship about a year ago, but now they’re a lot closer.

In 2021, Anna was outspoken about creating distance between herself and her mother when June began a romance with Mark McDaniel, who Anna said sexually assaulted her during her adolescence.

Now the two are putting the past behind them as June does things like watching Anna’s kids to help her cope with her new reality.

It was also noted that June accompanied Anna to her doctor’s appointments because she “wants her daughter to know she has a support system.”

Cardwell underwent her first chemotherapy session last month stage 4 cancer in her liver, kidneys and lungs after being diagnosed with rare adrenal carcinoma in January.

Doctors are now monitoring her progress before making decisions about further treatment.

Mama June Shannon’s eldest daughter reported having abdominal pain before testing and being diagnosed.

In recent images, Anna appeared with her eldest daughter, Kaitlyn, 10, as the rest of the family support her and remain hopeful.

The TLC alum also took photos of herself undergoing treatment at a Georgia hospital.

On Thursday, her 17-year-old sister, Alana “Honey Boo Boo” Thompson, took to Instagram to confirm the devastating diagnosis by sharing an article from TMZ.

Thompson wrote alongside a screenshot of the post, “Here’s what I mean when I say you never really know what someone is going through at home. No matter how famous they are.’

“Yes, I am very famous, but normal things happen to me and my family and you need to realize that as soon as possible,” she added.

According to the American Cancer Society, adrenocortical carcinoma – also known as adrenocortical cancer – is a disease that affects an estimated 200 Americans each year.

Sources close to the family report that they are all “very hopeful” that Cardwell will survive and overcome the rare disease.

They also revealed that the family – as well as Anna’s friend Eldridge Toney – are all coming together to care for Anna and her two children – Kaitlyn and Kylee, 8.

Cardwell first appeared in TLC’s 2009 series Toddlers and Tiaras along with her now teenage sister Alana and their family.

In 2012, Alana received a spin-off series titled Here Comes Honey Boo Boo which starred their entire family.

Cardwell welcomed daughter Kaitlyn in 2012 and married her then-boyfriend Michael Cardwell two years later. They discontinued it in 2017.
