The Shannon family is in the news once more, this time due to a dispute between Mama June and Jo Shannon's cancer-stricken niece Anna. However, the family drama has taken a new turn as Jo Shannon, the family's matriarch, draws criticism for failing to be there for her loved ones when they needed her most. Recently, in an exclusive interview with The Sun, Mama June made some really shocking statements about Jo Shannon's absence during the family's hour of need. She claimed that Jo has been absent ever since her daughter Anna has been diagnosed with Cancer and that she has not come to visit the family at all.
However, June alleged that her sister, Doe Doe has not been involved at all, despite their previously close relationship. When asked about her relationship with her sister, June said, "We don't talk to her, and she hasn't been around since Anna found out she has cancer." She further added, "She knows every time she goes to the doctor, she has not been around the family since Anna has had cancer." "She hasn't shown up for one treatment. She has not shown up at all," June lashed out.
She went on to say, "Sometimes people do stuff for show, not just wherever. Some people don't do stuff behind closed doors, I always say do stuff when the cameras aren't watching. Do stuff when the cameras ain't on."
As of right now, Mama June and Anna are still at war over the young woman's medical treatments, and Jo is getting flak for her alleged lack of support. It's a tragic turn of events for a family that has already been through a lot, but it also emphasizes the value of supporting loved ones in difficult situations.
