Did you know Honey Boo Boo goes to college in Denver – Her mom refuses to pay for it

I honestly thought after all these years that Honey Boo Boo and her mom, Mama June, had ridden off into the sunset with all their reality TV money. Turns out they’re still around, there’s still drama, and Honey Boo Boo is actually in Colorado for college. 

Honey Boo Boo, whose real name is Alana Thompson, and Mama June are clashing over cash. In a recent episode of “Mama June: Family Crisis,” Alana was told by June that she didn’t have the cash to help pay for her expenses… namely, college.

Alana was shocked to hear this, pointing out that June was able to pay for things like gold chains for her boyfriend, among other things. Alana’s sister Lauryn, joined in to support Alana, calling out June for not helping out in a confessional.

Alana started college last fall, studying at Regis University in Colorado, and is currently studying nursing. She’s apparently got a $21-thousand scholarship to help push down college costs.
