Honey Boo Boo Is Becoming A ‘Grifter’
Mama June viewers have been really proud of Alana ‘Honey Boo Boo’ Thompson for all she has achieved. With her mother being absent and an addict, she could have very easily gone backward and made nothing of herself. Yet, she wanted to become a neonatal nurse, was given a scholarship to Regis University, and headed off, boyfriend in tow. That was a big issue as her man, Dralin Carswell, had some legal issues to contend with. Followers hoped that he would not hold her back, nor would her family. She has continued to thrive, but recently, she went on social media, and fans questioned if she was okay.
For a very long time, Alana, Mama June, and Pumpkin Efird took to TikTok and Instagram to promote various products and services. In exchange, they would get sponsorships, free services, and money, which helped immensely. Alana has done this on occasion, and now, she is back to her old tricks. She just posted her P.O. Box under the guise that people were asking where they could send gifts.

Immediately after she shared this information, fans and followers slammed her. They felt that she was following in her mother and sister’s footsteps as a “grifter.” Moreover, they believed that Alana was on a far better path with school and a career. Therefore, she did not need to beg for things from people or brands:
- Imagine your claim to fame being that you’re a family of grifters and opportunists. 🤮
- Lanaaaa boo boo don’t be like your mom and sister .. Just keep being a nurse.. You’ll name lots of money doing that
Stay Away From Dralin, Too
Aside from the fact that Alana ‘Honey Boo Boo’ Thompson is being called out for promoting her P.O. Box, her boyfriend has fallen into the mix. Many wonder what her boyfriend, Dralin Carswell, does to help support her and their lifestyle. He lives in Colorado with Alana, yet no one is quite certain if she is paying for his living expenses or not. Mama June used to take care of her men, and that became a problem. Followers want Alana to focus on herself and not get dragged down by a man, especially when she has so much potential:
-
Drop dralin too
- That part.. He’s just a clout chasing money hungry piggy back rider… And do is DARRIN
- Is that Alana? I stopped watching the show when Dralin came into the picture. I really hoped when she went to college she would do better.
- Is she still financially supporting the sh*tty boyfriend and his cousin?
Mama June fans called Alana Thompson out for “begging,” and they could not understand why she could not escape that lifestyle. Maybe after seeing what people have to say, she will reconsider what she posts.
