Mama June and Justin Stroud tied the knot in March 2022.

During the fight, Pumpkin accused the 44-year-old of not being able to keep track of her "lies" about their financial situation. However, Alana, 18, and Pumpkin, 24, were not the only ones who were angry with Mama June, as the Here Comes Honey Boo Boo star said she had "never seen Justin yell at her like that" after he confronted her about lying and spending Alana's earnings that stemmed from her career as a child star.

In his confessional, Justin noted how his wife’s lies could "threaten my relationship with the girls because I look like a villain when there's money missing."

The couple, who married in March 2022, later rehashed the argument.

"Marriage, it has its ups and downs," Justin said. "At the end of the day, June is my wife, but this one right here stung because I feel like I actually have kids of my own."

"They look at me like a stepdad ... and I'm thrown into a bunch of lying and stolen money. She doesn't understand that it doesn't just affect her, it affects all of us," he added.

When Mama June attempted to detail where the money went, she claimed taxes took a lot of Alana's childhood earnings, but Justin didn’t believe her.

He wondered if Mama June thought he was "an idiot" and assumed this may be her way of "trying to convince herself that she did the right thing."
