‘Here Comes Honey Boo Boo’ Is Coming To A Halt After Reports That Mama June Is Dating Mark McDaniel, A Child Molester Surfaces

TLC network, the station airing ‘Here Comes Honey Boo Boo’ was very alarmed the moment the news broke out that Mama June (June Shannon), the mother of the former ‘Tiaras and Toddlers’ star, was dating a child molester. "TLC is not currently in production on Here Comes Honey Boo Boo. We are very concerned about this new information and are reassessing the future of the series."

In a statement from the station, "TLC has cancelled the series Here Comes Honey Boo Boo and ended all activities around the series, effective immediately," the network announced. "Supporting the health and welfare of these remarkable children is our only priority. TLC is faithfully committed to the children's ongoing comfort and well-being."

Though the show has been cancelled, E! News reports that Mama June is denying those rumors saying she is not dating Mark McDaniel.
"Just got a phone call this morning from TLC and as of right now there will be no more production of the show…the statement of me dating a sex offender is totally untrue. Pumpkin has openly said that I did not—that I'm not dating him and also his son," she said. "I would not ever, ever, ever put my kids in danger. I love my kids too much. That is my past. I have not seen that person in 10 years and don't seem to want to see that person."

According to TMZ, Mama June was dating McDaniel the time he was convicted with aggravated child molestation in 2004. The site is also reporting that the victim was actually a relative of Mama June's, and someone whom she is still in contact with.

Mark McDaniel has served 10 years in a Georgia state prison and was released in March of this year. He is currently a registered sex offender in Georgia.
