Mama June told TMZ that she takes "threats against her kids very seriously."
The threat comes two months after TLC cancelled the popular television show following news that Mama June rekindled her relationship with a sex offender, Mark McDaniel. The 53-year-old was imprisoned in 2004 for molesting Mama June's daughter, Anna Cardwell, when she was eight. Mama June denied the allegations of their reunion.
"Just got a phone call this morning from TLC and as of right now there will be no more production of the show," Mama June said in a video posted to Honey Boo Boo's Facebook page after the show was axed. "The statement of me dating a sex offender is totally untrue."
Mama June, 35, also recently sat down with Entertainment Tonight to tell her side of the story and revealed she has "nothing to hide." She said she only saw McDaniel twice since he left prison and one time was only by coincidence. The planned meeting was in attempt for Pumpkin to get closure from McDaniel, whom she thought was her biological father.
