Here Comes Honey Boo Boo star Mama June drops to a UK size eight from 33 stone to ‘get revenge’ on ex-husband Sugar Bear and his new bride
The formerly obese reality star pledges to slim down after Sugar invites him to his wedding
THE MOMENT Mama June decides to shift the rest of her 33 stone has been revealed – and it’s all because her ex-husband Sugar Bear has invited her to his wedding.
In brand new scenes from her reality show from Mama June: From Not To Hot, the 37-year-old is shocked when her ex tells her that he’s getting married – and wants her to be there on the big day.
Amber tells her: “I think you should go to this wedding and be drop dead gorgeous. Do the revenge diet, it’s the next biggest thing in Hollywood.
“You wear a nice tight dress and go and show him what he’s missing.”
Speaking to the camera Mama June explains: “I don’t want Sugar back, but I want him to see how hot I can be. And also show him that I’m not gonna sulk and think about him.
“I’m better than him.”
Honey Boo Boo then adds: “You have to get your revenge on him, like he’s like ‘I wish I had her.’”
Mama June has undergone weight loss surgery to help her shed the pounds, and she is to unveil her new look on WE TV’s new reality series Mama June: From Not To Hot.
She had a gastric sleeve – a less complicated version of a gastric band – fitted and has now shrunk to a US size four – a UK size eight.
After losing the weight, she enlisted the help of a personal trainer, and later underwent further surgeries to remove excess skin and a boob job, according to People.com.
She will debut her new look on the reality show when it airs in the US this month.

Her daughter Pumpkin, 17, also known as Lauren, told Entertainment Tonight: "She had gastric sleeve back in May of 2015, and then she slowly started losing weight...
"She got her boobies done... She got them from a 44 long to 36 up.”
Pumpkin revealed her mum is having to go out in disguise to make sure she is not recognised.
She added: "She’s like, ‘Alright, I’ve got to go to the store,’ and we’re like, ‘Mama, no, you need to stay in the house because if somebody gets a picture with you…'
“Even if she does go out, she has to be, like, suited up.”
