She told June: “I’m happy that y’all are finally getting it together and that things are coming together, but you know I’ve been trying to hold things together, too.
“So that’s kind of been a lot.”
June said she “appreciates” Pumpkin watching Honey, adding that she keeps an eye on them through social media.
June continued: “That’s pretty much the way that I know what’s going on in y’all’s life, which is kind of f**ked up.
“And now it’s like, we’ve become clean and it’s like, okay I’m gonna just distance myself from you.”
Pumpkin explained she “needs a healing process,” to which June responded: “We need to heal together.

Pumpkin added that she won’t show up if Geno is there, which prompted June to respond: “That’s f**ked up.”
She continued to bash her mother’s boyfriend as she said in a confessional: “I’m really starting to get fed up with Mama because she just expects that everyone is supposed to forget about the things that Geno done to her, to us, to us as a family in general.

Pumpkin previously exclusively told The Sun that Honey “attended therapy” after their mother’s arrest.
Speaking of Honey, Pumpkin said: “She’s definitely in a better place than she was a year ago. We’ve really started working on ourselves attending therapy and being more conversational as a family all together.
“I’ve encouraged her ever since I’ve had custody of her to get good grades in school and go to whatever college she wants to go to. There aren’t a lot of people in our family who have done that. I know Alana is very much capable of it.”
