In a at Friday's new episode of Mama June: Road to Redemption, Josh and wife Pumpkin meet with Dr. Ish, telling him how hard it has been with June suddenly moving into their lives.

When the therapist asks Josh simply "How ya doing, brother?" his answer is blunt.

"It's been tough," he said. "It's been stressful."

The 25-year-old pointed out that June's recent negligence when it came to Covid crossed the line.

The Not to Hot star ended up infecting nearly everyone, including their two young kids, Bentley and Ella.

Josh himself got so sick he had to drive himself to the emergency room.

"June is just a big, lying piece of s**t, and has nothing better to do than to look out for herself," he added.

Eventually, Josh's ire turned to Pumpkin, as he scolded her, saying he didn't want any of this drama for him or his kids.

"All of the f**ked up, unfortunate events that June has caused, yet you still allow her in your life," Josh said to his wife. "That's what hurts me the most. That is why I am angry.

"There’s no room for your mama in my life anymore," he concluded.

JOSH'S OBJECTIONS

Josh's contention with his mother-in-law have been well documented, and the reality TV family has been locked in a heated feud amid June's addiction struggles, which came to a head when she was arrested on drug possession charges in March of 2019 along with her boyfriend at the time, Geno Doak, 46. 

Pumpkin was awarded temporary guardianship over her sister Alana in August of 2019, with permission from Alana's father, Mike "Sugar Bear" Thompson. 

At the height of her addiction, June sold the family's Georgia home at a loss for fast cash in October 2019. 

June now claims to be nearly two years sober. 

CUSTODY BATTLE

According to Georgia court documents first obtained by The Sun, a judge awarded sole custody of Alana to her sister Pumpkin, 22, away from their mother June.  

In the final order issued in April 2022, the judge wrote that Pumpkin "has had guardianship of the minor child since April 29, 2019. 

"It is in the best interest of the child that the plaintiff is awarded sole custody."
