June’s arrest prompted her third-eldest daughter, Lauren Shannon, to fight for full sole custody of Alana. But in teasers for the mid-season premiere of Mama June: Road to Redemption, their mom refuses to give up her rights. She tells cameras in a recently released promo, “There's a lot that happened behind closed doors that a lot of people don't know.” The pending custody battle could derail the family's progress all over again, and Alana is once again stuck in the middle.
