Anna has a 10-year-old Kaitlyn and a 7-year-old Kylee. She has been dating her boyfriend Eldridge for years.
Last month, Mama June walked down the aisle with Justin Stroud in a lavish ceremony. She had first married Justin at a courthouse in 2022.
At the Florida wedding, Anna was seen with her sisters Jessica "Chubbs" Shannon, Honey Boo Boo and Pumpkin.
The last couple of years has been incredibly rocky for the reality stars. Mama June struggled with drug addiction for years. The drama ended with June being arrested with her boyfriend Geno Doak for crack cocaine possession.
Back in 2021, Geno was sentenced to 16 months in prison. Back in December, sources revealed that Geno had relapsed on drugs after spending 9 months in rehab.
An insider said Geno left a South Carolina rehab in June 2022. He then proceeded to relapse on alcohol, sources said.
Geno admitted to TMZ he had relapsed but said he was headed back to AA meetings. June cut ties with Geno and started up a relationship with Justin.
The two first met on TikTok.
