Pumpkin first made the announcement in an interview with PEOPLE magazine, later confirming the news on Instagram.

The mother-to-be posted a series of pics including her ultrasounds photos and four positive at-home pregnancy tests.

She wrote: "Well the secret is out for everyone to know now!! Baby Efird #2 coming 2021. After almost 3 years we are finally having another blessing and couldn't be happier. @official_josh_efird."

Pumpkin also shares daughter Ella, three, with her husband Joshua Efird.

Fans watched the pregnancy drama unfold on a recent episode of Mama June: Road to Redemption where her former stepdad's new wife revealed to her family that Pumpkin was expecting, despite the 21-year-old's pleas not to.

As they all gathered for her daughter Ella's birthday, Jennifer Thompson, who is married to Pumpkin's former stepdad, Mike "Sugar Bear" Thompson, revealed the exciting news to the family, who were totally unaware.

The gathering, which was attended by June, 41, as well as her ex-husband Sugar Bear, ended in tears thanks to the unexpected admission.

The father-of-one's wife disclosed Pumpkin's pregnancy, despite her wishes not to in order to clap back at Mama and her boyfriend Geno Doak.

Pumpkin told cameras ahead of the party: "It's gonna be strange with Mama coming here after everything that's happened, but I don't want to keep Ella and my mama separate, because Ella loves her."

The 21-year old also failed to tell her husband Josh, as well as Sugar Bear and Jennifer, that June and Doak would be at the party.

Before leaving their home, Jennifer tells her husband she's not keen to go if Mama June will be there, but he wrongly assures her that she won't be attending.

When Mama June arrives, little Ella is thrilled, but family friends at the gathering still try to warn Sugar Bear not to come.

Mama June screamed, as her ex-husband arrived: "Who invited them?"

Pumpkin then asked her husband: "What the f**k are they doing here?"

During the awkward party, things go from bad to worse when June points out to her granddaughter, dressed as a princess, that all the "big presents are from her."

"You are just trying to buy her love," Jennifer quips back under her breath, before laying into Mama June further.

"I don't understand why you're here anyway," she goes on, saying June looks "homeless" and adding: "It looks like you would have already been in the jail cell."

After fighting back and forth about June's difficult year, which included her arrested on drug possession charges and a rehab stint, Jennifer dropped the pregnancy bombshell.

"I just don't know how much longer I can hold my tongue," she teased, before revealing the baby news to the entire family.

"Pumpkin, you're having another child?" June yelled, looking hurt. "How could you tell Jennifer before you even tell your own mother?"

Alana also was left confused, as the teen - known as Honey Boo Boo - also didn't know about the pregnancy before Jennifer.

"Thanks for messing that up," Pumpkin angrily told Jennifer at the end of the dramatic episode, as she chased after her mother and sibling.

"Everybody knows Ella's three now, so it's taken me that long to get pregnant. Because for a while, I was on birth control and then I got off of birth control for a year and a half.

"And then I found out that I was pregnant."
