“You do not know how many nights I cry myself to sleep, just hoping and praying that you do not overdose,” Alana said crying as June began to tear herself apart.
Lauryn, who became Alana’s guardian after becoming MIA in June, added: “I can not give Alana her mother. It’s like I’d drown.
The clip ends with Lauryn’s husband, Josh, proposing to take Alana to see Sugar Bear, while June tells her boyfriend Geno Doak: ‘It could be a disaster.’
Meanwhile, Lauryn recently spoke about the reunion with June with TooFab and explained how she took care of Alana while June and Geno blew $ 1 million in drugs in a year.
“When we met on the show this time, it was a year ago that we saw her physically,” Lauryn said. “So it’s hard to hear. I mean it really is, to know that – not to try to sound mean and not to try to sound hungry for money – but to know that Josh and I have struggled to do everything in our power “to do to keep a roof. Over Alana and Ella’s head. It’s just like, but you were blowing a million dollars out here and you could not help me?”
She also explained how she is not sure June really understands how big the impact of her drug use was on their family.
“I do not think she still understands the problems she left for me, because if I have to take care of Alana, I feel that she appreciates it, but I feel like she says that she appreciates it. I want that it’s a little more sincere than it should be, “Pumpkin said.” It’s very difficult because someone who was supposed to be there and be supportive just does not look like that. I did all these things and I grew up as a woman and now I have to accept the consequences and I was not even the addict. ‘
“It’s not like, okay, I’m just taking care of Alana. Like I have to go through my marital problems, which caused problems there,” she added. “It basically caused a whole lot of noise in everyone’s lives, and it’s just the way she sees it, but she does not see it.”
“Mama June: Road to Redemption” airs every Friday at 21:00 ET on WE.
