Anna “Chickadee” Cardwell’s bond with her three sisters Alana “Honey Boo Boo” Thompson, Jessica “Chubbs” Shannon, and Lauryn “Pumpkin” Efird, has been adversely affected because of her tumultuous relationship with their mother, Mama June. Cardwell accused Mama June’s ex-boyfriend of sexual abuse when she was a child, which the latter purportedly ignored. She also pursued legal action against her mother after “Here Comes Honey Boo Boo” was canceled, claiming that she and her daughter were denied a total of $300,000 in earnings from the show.
Because of all the drama, Cardwell notably stepped away from the limelight after her stint in the reality series, limiting her contact with her sisters. In an interview with Distractify in 2022, Efird revealed that while she and Cardwell were fine, they weren’t as tight as they used to be. “I’m not, like, super close to her,” she said. “Not [close] like me and Jessica and Alana are, but we do talk.”
That same year, however, signs of reconciliation started surfacing, with a source telling The U.S. Sun that Cardwell has been helping Efird tend to her kids. “Anna has been over quite a bit lately, lending a hand with the twins and Bentley, while her daughters entertain Pumpkin’s oldest daughter, Ella,” they said. Cardwell also told the outlet in a separate interview that while her relationship with her mother was fractured, her bond with her sisters remained intact.
