Did Mama June Shannon and her former longtime partner, Mike ‘Sugar Bear’ Thompson, meet via a “chubby chaser” website? The two were together for quite some time, and even had a daughter, Alana ‘Honey Boo Boo’ Thompson, during their romance. So, how did it really start? Keep reading for more details.
Did A ‘Chubby Chaser’ Site Bring Mama June & Sugar Bear Together?
Mama June Shannon and Sugar Bear always seemed like an odd coupling. They had one child together, Alana ‘Honey Boo Boo’ Thompson, and their lives were documented on Here Comes Honey Boo Boo. He was seemingly there for her three other daughters, Jessica, Pumpkin, and Anna. In the end, it was revealed that he was somewhat abusive, but that had been edited out of the TLC series. Despite a commitment ceremony, the two parted ways, and he moved on with Jennifer Lamb. Initially, she was a bigger woman, but over time, she drastically slimmed down.
June is now married to Justin Stroud, and her weight has fluctuated. She lost a lot when she underwent weight loss surgery, but rehab, the pandemic, and Anna Cardwell’s illness set her back. June is now on a great track, having dropped around one hundred pounds. She looks and feels incredible, but some have been asking questions. Fans know that June and Sugar Bear met online, and she joked about him being a booty call who stuck around. However, they now wonder if it was on a “chubby chasing” site.
Fans have noted that Mama June did not seem very interested in Sugar Bear. Rather, she appreciated food, couponing, and having her back scratched. Since Sugar Bear has a penchant for bigger women, this would make sense. Yet, it was also noted that June was not that into him and just kept him around, the reason unknown. She did not even care to take care of herself while they were in the relationship. Therefore, it could be believed that was how he preferred her.
An Odd Ending
After Mama June and Sugar Bear parted ways, she reconnected with a past partner who had been accused of molestation. That was a big part of why Here Comes Honey Boo Boo ended. Yes, she and Sugar Bear tried to capitalize on their breakup by appearing on Marriage Boot Camp. However, that failed, and she is far happier now. As for them meeting on a weight-specific site, that will likely never be known. Some followers tried to pinpoint how they fell in love, but they confused June with Jennifer and Sugar Bear with Justin:
- She met Justin either in rehab or shortly after in a recovery meeting. Not sure about Sugar Bear
It was also discussed how Mama June did not care for anything intimate from Sugar Bear, but that has all shifted:
- She pretended to be a prude back then, now she leaves everything to go chase d*ck, including her children and grandchildren
Maybe one day, June will spill the tea, and the site that they found each other on will be revealed. Do you think that a “chubby chaser” site makes sense? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below, and watch Mama June: Family Crisis Fridays on WeTV.
