How old is Mama June's daughter Pumpkin?

Lauryn Efird, also known as Pumpkin, is the daughter of Mama June. She is currently married to her high school sweetheart, Josh; however, there are issues in the marriage.

Pumpkin has made it clear that she wishes to divorce her husband, with whom she shares two kids, because the relationship feels one-sided to her, with no effort from Josh's end. She is young and is living with her husband, but it is expected that their living situation will change after the separation.

Pumpkin is 25 years old right now and is the third child of Mama June. She was born on January 7, 2000. There have been a lot of controversies about who her father was until she was in her late teens.

Earlier, Pumpkin had believed that she was the child of Mark McDaniel, a convicted child molester who had gone to jail in 2004.

However, this was not the case and was revealed during one of the seasons of Mama June. The matriarch had decided to simply not tell her the truth that her father was Michael Anthony Ford.

Mama June's daughter, Pumpkin, over the years

Since the family started starring in reality TV shows whrn Honey Boo Boo garnered fame as a little kid, Pumpkin has been a co-star on it, along with all the other shows that the family has done.

It was seen that Pumpkin and Joshua Efird had been together since they were in high school. They became young parents in 2017 when they welcomed their first child, Ella Grace, together. The two were in love and decided to get married in Las Vegas later.

Josh and Pumpkin have been together ever since and even had a second child in 2021 named Bentley. The following year, the two were blessed with their third and fourth child in the form of twins, a boy and a girl. The kids were named Sylus and Stella.

Pumpkin has always been the reliable one of the family, picking up the slack where her mother, Mama June, could not. When the matriarch was arrested in 2019 for drug possession, Alana, who was underage at the time and had already been living with Pumpkin for years by then, was granted custody of her. The law required June to pay Pumpkin child support for Alana till she turns 18.

As of right now, we are seeing the events of Pumpkin's marriage to Josh Efird at the point where it all went wrong. It was reported back in August 2024 that she had filed for divorce.

The court documents that TMZ was able to conjure showed that the ex-couple will have joint custody of their four children. They had mentioned that the marriage is "irretrievably broken."

As the current season of Mama June goes on, it will be interesting to see how Pumpkin's life unfolds post-divorce and how she adjusts to the change.
