Lauryn ‘Pumpkin’ Efird loves getting inked. She already has a handful of tattoos and a few piercings including a tongue stud. Then, last month, the mother of four showed off an intricate sleeve. It was obviously quite pricey with all of the detail and heavy artwork put into the piece. This was a shock considering that she and her family have been struggling financially. For the past several months, Pumpkin and her little sister, Honey Boo Boo have been hustling on social media. They have been heavily promoting their meet and greets and reminding fans they are on Cameo. Despite this, Pumpkin got her sleeve and now she is back in the chair for more.
Pumpkin Gets More Ink
In her latest Instagram story, the young mother showcased herself getting another extremely elaborate piece. The same artist, Buck Lewallen was tagged in the post. This time, it appears to be skulls, flowers, and fire though it is unclear what her tattoos actually represent. Furthermore, this is not an inexpensive purchase for someone who claimed her cabinets were bare a handful of months ago.
Currently, she and her sister, Alana ‘Honey Boo Boo’ Thompson are in a legal battle with an Atlanta Boston Market. They were supposed to pay the Efird/Thompson family for a meet and greet they did in August. However, it appears that they still have yet to pay up. Alana chatted all about it on her social media and still claims that they have yet to be paid. Pumpkin also does not get that much child support from their mother Mama June.
She gained sole custody of Alana in April of this year but was only granted $800/month. Then, she gave birth to twins in May, just ten months after having her second child, Bentley. Needless to say, she has her hands full. When June learned that her daughter did not have anything in her kitchen, she had an odd reaction. She told her to get on TikTok and make some money.
What Is She Doing Now?
Road to Redemption has yet to be renewed for another season. However, there has been chatter that Pumpkin and Alana will be doing their own show. They have even been seen filming without their mom. As for Mama June, she was also seen filming on her own prior to going to the hospital. There have been no updates since she was admitted for dizziness and headaches. If her daughters did get their own show, then an advance would allow Pumpkin to get some fresh ink without thinking twice.
What do you think of Pumpkin’s latest addition? Do you think she should be splurging or saving? Let us know in the comments below.
