Emotional Josh Efird Officially Done
This season of Mama June: Family Crisis saw the demise of Pumpkin and Josh Efird’s marriage. She finally told him she was done with the relationship and wanted a divorce. Moreover, Pumpkin stated that she had been struggling for a very long time with her husband. They married too young, and it was never the same after they started having kids. This was hard for Pumpkin’s sister, Alana Thompson, to take as she looked up to Josh like a father. To see her role model couple calling it quits was a bitter pill to swallow.
Pumpkin has since moved on with Josh’s cousin, Darrin Kitchens, and that has been an odd twist. Regardless, Josh has been trying to show Pumpkin he still cares by bringing her flowers. Now that he has learned from her sister, Jessica Shannon, that she is with Darrin, his mindset has shifted. In the clip from the Friday, July 25th episode of Family Crisis, Josh has called his mother. He has opted to pack up everything from the home, and Pumpkin shared, but does not want their kids around. Therefore, his mom will take them for the time being.
Josh Efird grabs a trash bag and stands in their old bedroom with tears coming as he puts his hands to his face. The Mama June star is struggling with letting go, but knows that it is time. He reflects on all the memories the couple had made and then writes Pumpkin a note. Josh wants her to know he is done for good, and cannot believe she had lied to him. Finally, he shares that the kids are with their grandma, he is packing, and is gone.
Team Josh
After Mama June fans saw this go down, they were team Josh all the way. They could not believe how cruel Pumpkin Efird was and how she let a good man go. Of course, no one has walked in their shoes, so what went down behind closed doors is unknown. Regardless, viewers are absolutely heartbroken for Josh:
- I am SO sorry Josh. I am so disappointed in Lauryn’s decisions -divorcing you and dating someone in your family.
- Huge mistake on Pumpkin..this guy is such a hard worker..she’s messed up like her mother..from what we saw- he wasn’t lazy and helped at home with kids
Many felt that Pumpkin would see that she made a huge mistake in the long run, as Josh was always there for her and the kids. He has since moved on and welcomed his fifth child, while Pumpkin and Darrin are going strong.
Are you happy that Josh is finally leaving Pumpkin and his old life behind? More so, do you think she will come to regret this choice? Let us know and watch the season finale of Mama June: Family Crisis July 25th on WeTV
