Mama June Sued By Daughter For Withholding Profits From ‘Here Comes Honey Boo Boo’

Chickadee wants her money.

Anna Cardwell is suing her mother, "Mama June" Shannon, for withholding hundreds of thousands of dollars owed to her for the family's TLC series, "Here Comes Honey Boo Boo," according to TMZ.

Cardwell claims Mama June pocketed around $200,000 earmarked for her plus another $100,000 for her 2-year-old daughter, Kaitlyn.

The oldest of four children, Cardwell was owed $22,500 per episode. She also claims Mama June didn't share royalties from their cookbook and other promotional items.

The suit also includes TLC for allegedly failing in their duty to protect her earnings, but Mama June told TMZ that the network deposited her daughter's money directly into her account.

The "Honey Boo Boo" matriarch also plans to file legal documents claiming her mother, Sandra Hale, is behind Cardwell's lawsuit. Mama June called her mom a "money hungry bitch" and claims to have text messages proving her daughter Chickadee never wanted to file the initial lawsuit, according to TMZ.

Mama June reportedly paid her oldest $15,400 from a lump sum that TLC gave the family after the show's cancellation.
