Anna Shannon Cardwell, the oldest daughter of Here Comes Honey Boo Boo star "Mama June" Shannon, can't seem to decide if she believes her mother is dating Mark McDaniel, the man she says molested her when she was a child.
When rumors first swirled of a rekindled romance between Shannon and McDaniel, Cardwell defended her mother. However, she quickly changed he mind and told RadarOnline.com exclusively, "I believe she is seeing him and hanging around him. I'm hurt."
Now, in a new interview, Anna Cardwell she is "confused. I'm hearing one story from Mama and another one from someone else."
The 20-year-old mom of Kaitlyn, 2, explains to People, "My whole body believes that she is telling the truth, but my mind is going back and forth from - you know, hey, she's telling the truth or she's not telling the truth, but most of me believes her."
Cardwell might feel differently though after seeing photos that were published on Saturday purporting to show Shannon and McDaniel house-hunting in Hampton, GA last month. Cardwell's sister Lauryn "Pumpkin" Shannon was allegedly also in tow.
Now Cardwell is focused on keeping her own daughter safe and that means Shannon will not be allowed near baby Kaitlyn "unless Mark is out of the picture or away because I don't want him nowhere near my child. Nowhere close to her."
