So, in a March episode of Mama June: Household Disaster, the 18-year-old confronted her 44-year-old momma Mama June Shannon about cash supposedly lacking from her Coogan Account, which is a particular checking account arrange for youngster actors. Alana had been anticipating six figures to be in that account on account of all of the on-screen work she did rising up. However when she checked it through the ep, she discovered solely $33,000.

Through the episode final month, Alana slammed her embattled momma for her TV wage cash being lacking:
“There ought to a minimum of be six figures in that account! One thing’s not including up. My cash is someplace. It must be discovered proper now, ASAP. As a result of this isn’t gonna work.”
However based on Mama June, the cash numbers really do make sense! Talking to ET on Tuesday, June defined that Alana made about $60,000 on Dancing With The Stars: Juniors again in 2018. Then, after California taxes and Georgia taxes pulled out their shares, Honey Boo Boo was left with about $35,000. Monetary specialists guided her to place 20 % of that complete into Alana’s Coogan Account. Then, extra money was deposited into the Coogan Account from transient TV stints on The Seaside Ball and The Masked Singer, each in 2019. June defined to ET this week:
“Alana has round over $200,000 that she has entry to however she is selecting to not have entry to. She is making these selections as a result of she’s 18. So there’s extra, there’s undoubtedly extra money on the market.”
So, wait, Alana has entry to it, and she or he has acknowledged that she desires it, however she is “selecting to not have entry” to it? Huh?? Make it make sense!
The on-screen argument went on from there final month. At one level, June instructed Alana that she must be comfortable to have even $33,000 at her age, as most 18-year-olds begin their grownup life with nothing! Which, yeah, perhaps… however Alana has been working all through her childhood!! And he or she rightly clapped again about that:
“Yeah, however I’ve been on TV since I used to be six, and now, I’ve what to indicate for it?”
Not flawed!!! Talking to ET now about that previous on-camera interplay this week, June defined bizarrely that she “didn’t actually” steal any cash from her daughter:
“I didn’t actually steal any cash. You will notice on Friday, you realize, prefer it’s not a whole lot of hundreds of {dollars} that’s in query, it’s just one present and that’s Dancing With the Stars.”
Uh, that’s fairly the teaser for Friday’s forthcoming episode. The “actually” in “I didn’t actually steal any cash” would appear to be doing fairly a bit of labor! LOLz!! We will’t wait to listen to the reason on that one…
Ultimately, the cash downside has created fairly a rift between Alana and her momma. The youthful lady is learning proper now at Regis College in Denver. In one other previous Mama June: Household Disaster ep, she instructed her momma to not come go to her within the Mile Excessive Metropolis due to all this. Ouch!! And but June instructed ET on Tuesday that she continues to be visiting her well-known daughter regardless of that request:
“I’ve been on the market. One thing my youngsters instructed me 4 years in the past and again in December… they stated, ‘effectively, hey, we wish you to maintain displaying up even when we don’t need you to indicate up’ and I maintain doing that regardless of if we’re preventing or we aren’t getting alongside or there’s some controversy.”
Hmmm. Nicely, OK. We’re simply extra involved in regards to the allegedly lacking cash!! Alana deserves what she’s earned after years of rising up on digital camera!! Reactions, Perezcious readers?? Are you going to tune in on Friday at 9:00 p.m. ET on WEtv to see how this performs out??
