Mama June Shannon went from single and ready to mingle, to a full-on bride.
Yes, that’s right!
The reality TV star is a married woman… and has been for nearly two months.
Us Weekly learned the ‘Not to Hot’ star tied the knot to her boyfriend, Justin Stroud, of less than a year.
The outlet confirmed Stroud and June wed two months ago at a courthouse in Georgia.

Their relationship became legally binding on March 23, 2022. That same month, the couple sparked engagement rumors after photos of them shopping for rings in Alabama made the rounds.
June first hinted at her romance with Stroud in October 2021. The couple went to a tattoo parlor where he got new ink. She didn’t state his name in the Instagram video, but she did call him her “new boo.”
Her marriage comes after a tumultuous relationship with Geno Doak.
Mama June & Geno Doak Arrested On Felony Drug Possession
The couple originally got together in 2015 and Doak appeared in “Mama June: From Not to Hot” in 2017.
Their relationship was riddled with drug abuse, arrests and rehab.
The ex-couple were arrested in 2019 and charged with felony drug possession. They attended rehab together in 2020, but by 2021, June confirmed she and Doak had called it quits.

The Blast previously reported on the reality star’s out of control drug use and spending habits.
The ‘Mama June: Family Crisis’ star spoke to the media while promoting her television show, “Mama June: Road To Redemption,” saying life got so bad that she entered rehab with only a few dollars to her name.
The 41-year-old reality star had been clean for the last 14-months but was arrested for possession of drugs, and forced to face her addiction head-on after being confronted by her family.
June Spent Nearly $1 Million On Drugs Before Going To Rehab
“I would say the last year of our addiction, probably a good $900,000,” MJ told Access Hollywood.
She continued, “So much money was sent to our dope man.”
In one INSANE story, Mama June admitted she had sent her drug dealer $80,000 in a single Cash app transaction. Plus, at the time she was about to enter rehab, she was awaiting a $15,000 check to ger her “last high,” but the payment was late, so she entered rehab instead.
“I went into rehab with $1.75 to my name, and I came out with nothing,” she revealed.
Mama June’s new husband has been a positive force in her life.

She told Us Weekly, “The guy that I’m with now that I’ve been with for a minute, he’s just kind of starting to put the broken pieces back together. You know what I’m saying? Putting little jigsaw puzzles back together.”
June admitted this is the happiest she’s been in her life.
“I have finally found who June Shannon is after 42 years,” the mother-of-three said. “I didn’t really know who I was. I was just going about life, just like a lot of us honestly do, and just dealing with whatever.”
