The shocking new truth about Mama June: Family Crisis stars Pumpkin and Josh Efird’s divorce has finally emerged. It feels like new information is coming out daily. Yet, no one is clear on the exact details and maybe they never will have a clear-cut answer or reason for the split. However, an interesting timeline and chain of events has been revealed and there are so many layers to it. Keep reading for all of the details.
Mama June Shocking New Truth About Pumpkin & Josh Divorce
When Lauryn ‘Pumpkin’ Efird filed for divorce from Josh Efird on August 1st, 2024, fans were shocked. They appeared relatively happy after almost a decade together and six years of marriage. Plus, they have four children, Ella, Bentley, Stella, and Sylus. Yet, Pumpkin maintained they mutually chose to split and it looked like they had both moved on. She was allegedly dating a close friend and relative of Josh’s, Darrin Kitchens. Josh was also supposedly seeing a pregnant woman named Keely who had been friends with Darrin’s ex-wife, Ariel. Finally, with all of the closeness, some claimed Pumpkin and Josh were swingers.
Pumpkin and Darrin just had their first public outing which they showed off on social media, attending a Zach Bryan concert. At the same time, rumors swirled that Pumpkin’s infidelity ended her marriage and now, there may be some truth to that. A Reddit thread was started and in it, the whole story of Josh, Pumpkin, and their significant others was broken down.
Fans wondered if Josh was the father of Keely’s baby but Mama June spoke out. She said they had been dating for a few months but he was not the father. Then, Darrin Kitchens name circulated as the father despite Keely’s closeness with his ex-wife, Ariel. Ultimately, Josh Efird and Keely were just very good friends and Darrin is the father, without a doubt. Yes, Darrin and Josh are related but family means very little when Pumpkin is involved. Finally, Ariel spilled some tea about Darrin being a deadbeat dad and now it seems he is a shady partner the way he claims he is polyamorous.
More Confirmation
Another person jumped on the train and confirmed everything that had been mentioned above. It discussed Keely’s paternity and how she and Darrin Kitchens split three months ago. Additionally, Darrin and Josh Efird’s grandmother passed on April 27th. It was after the funeral that Darrin and Pumpkin hooked up. Now, Pumpkin did say that she and Josh had been split up for a few months now so that could have been the final straw.
After learning all of these details, what did Mama June followers have to say? Could they even process this?
- According to this, Miss Pumpkin lied to make herself look better by saying it was “mutual”? I would’ve never guessed!
- Do they have to keep like a dry eraser board up showing all the connections? And the ever-changing ones

We need some sort family tree/diagram to explain all of this
It seems the full and true story will come out unless this is just hype to get fans interested in another season of Mama June: Family Crisis. Either way, there are way too many cooks in the kitchen and this is a lot of information, some that still is utterly baffling.
