Oct. 18 2016, Published 10:14 a.m. ET
One year after he attempted to save his broken relationship with Mama June Shannon on Marriage Boot Camp Reality Stars, Mike "Sugar Bear" Thompson has moved on to a new woman.
And now, the proud dad to Alana "Honey Boo Boo" Thompson is engaged to his girlfriend of nearly one year, Jennifer Lamb, RadarOnline.com can exclusively reveal.
The Georgia-based mom, 43, confirmed the engagement to RadarOnline.com, but remained mum on details of the proposal.
"Jennifer is super sweet and treats Mike so well," a separate source close to Thompson, 44, told RadarOnline.com. "They are very happy together."
And she's not shy about the relationship, even boasting about her man on her private Facebook page.

"He is a great dad to his daughter. He is also a great man to my son and a fantastic role model for him also," she gushed to pals. "He works hard to provide for us and will do anything in his reach to help out anyone else, regardless of the time of day."
Fortunately for fans of the canceled Here Comes Honey Boo Boo, Thompson and Lamb are planning to bring their romance to reality TV, insiders said. The couple has even signed a contract with a network.
As RadarOnline.com previously reported, the parents to Honey Boo Boo, now 11, split in 2014 amid cheating rumors on both sides.
Of course, Shannon, 37, faced an even bigger scandal when she was caught cozying up to an ex-boyfriend who was imprisoned for molesting her oldest daughter, Anna, when the now mother of two was just 8 years old. (Shannon denied ever rekindling the romance following his 2014 release from prison.)
She eventually moved on to her home remodeler, Geno Doak, though sources told RadarOnline.com the pair has since split.
