Mama June Shannon of the canceled “Here Comes Honey Boo Boo” show is reportedly attempting to rekindle her relationship with Sugar Bear.

The show was canceled by TLC after it was reported Mama June was in a relationship with her ex, convicted child molester Mark McDaniel.

Mama June said that she and Sugar Bear are living together and “working on the relationship,” she told TMZ.

But she said they’re not “back together,” noting that it will “take a lot of work” to regain his trust.

Regarding McDaniel, she said, “I’m human, I made mistakes and done wrong, but no one is perfect.” She added that she doesn’t have any contact with him.

Last week, “Honey Boo Boo” star Anna Cardwell told E! News that she spent Thanksgiving without Mama June.

“It is the first holiday without them,” Anna told the channel. “And I [haven’t] talk to them in a while, and they’re probably going to go eat somewhere or spend it with my aunt, but it’s fine.”

Cardwell spent the holiday with her daughter and family of her husband, Michael, she said.

“It is a little [hard] ‘cause I can’t spend it with my [family], but it will be fine,” she told E! 

Meanwhile, Cardwell is trying to sell “potions” to prevent Ebola, according to PerezHilton. She’s the spokesperson for Young Living Essential Oils, which sells products that claim to prevent or cure Ebola or cancer.

“The Ebola virus cannot survive in the presence of a therapeutic grade Cinnamon Bark and Oregano essential oil,” the company says on its website.

Previously, the FDA has warned Young Living Essential Oils to stop making claims about Ebola.
