Mama June, 42, makes out with boyfriend Justin Stroud, 34, on carousel & hand feeds him despite warrant out for arrest
MAMA June Shannon was photographed making out with her young boyfriend, Justin Stroud, on a carousel and hand-feeding him despite an active warrant out for his arrest.
June, 42, and Justin, 34, appeared to have not a care in the world as they canoodled on a carousel in sunny Los Angeles in exclusive photos obtained by The Sun.
Despite their loved-up display, authorities in Alabama revealed to The Sun that Justin is a wanted man and that an arrest order is open on him.
Yet, June seemed to shrug off any looming legal issues her lover is facing and smiled brightly in the photos, which were taken on Tuesday.
The Mama June: Road to Redemption star was snapped hand feeding her boo what appeared to be a cherry, as they enjoyed ice cream and took in a local fair.
The couple took a pause from their sweet treat to enjoy an impassioned kiss and then continued to feed each other while gazing into each other’s eyes.
June first went public with Justin over the past weekend, when they were photographed enjoying a sunny hike in California.
Earlier this week The Sun revealed the warrant for Justin's arrest is still active, and authorities are currently on the hunt for him.

A law enforcement contact involved in Justin’s case exclusively revealed to The Sun that there is “an open warrant out for his arrest,” and that they would like to speak with him.
The TV star has been dating the auto-mechanic, who had posed in front of a Confederate Flag for a photo in a now-deleted Facebook profile, since last year.
June first mentioned that she had a new "boo" without revealing his identity when she showed off a tattoo he had done on her Instagram stories in her home state of Georgia on October 13th.
MAMA'S WANTED MAN
Justin had violated his probation from an arrest in 2020, according to court documents previously obtained by The Sun.
The documents revealed that a warrant was issued for Justin's arrest after he failed to appear for meetings with his Alabama probation officer in October, just days after he was seen with the star showing off his new tattoo in Atlanta, Georgia.
The warrant for Stroud’s arrest alleged that in September he was kicked out of MOM’S Rehab in Alabama for suspected drug abuse.
“On September 14, 2021, at approximately 10pm, Mr. Stroud appeared to be impaired while present in the cafeteria of the facility. Security cameras in the cafeteria were reviewed,” and “Mr. Stroud appeared to be showing signs of physical impairment in the video.
“When attempting to speak to Mr. Stroud regarding his demeanor at 10:45pm, he was found passed out in his bed wearing his work clothing and work boots.”
June’s boyfriend was drug tested at the time; however, the tests came back negative. Nonetheless, he was kicked out of rehab for suspected drug abuse.
The following day, he allegedly admitted to his probation officer that he had used “Water,” which is otherwise known as the party drug GHB.
The probation officer noted in the warrant that GHB does not show up on routine drug screens.
From the warrant report, the probation officer appeared willing to work with Stroud through the alleged slip-up.
He reported to probation as required for the remainder of September, but failed to appear for his probation meetings on October 21st, 22nd and 25th, with the warrant for his arrest being issued on October 26th.
The prosecutor’s office told The Sun at the time: “In October of last year there was a warrant for his arrest, and an order issued.
“The arrest order was for a probation violation in October 2021. He was sentenced in April 2021 so the time from sentencing to the time he was hit with the violation was not very long.”
He did plead guilty to burglary of a dwelling in the third degree and theft of property in the fourth degree, the first is a felony and the second in a misdemeanor. He pleaded guilty in 2020, he was sentenced in April of 2021 and in October 2021 he got the warrant,” the prosecutor’s office added.
The Sun previously revealed Stroud was arrested for possession of marijuana and drug paraphernalia, as well as a burglary at a dwelling in the third degree, and theft of property in November of 2019. He pleaded guilty to the latter two charges.
WHIRLWIND ROMANCE
In December, June posted a lengthy message to Facebook about being in a relationship with someone you truly love.
She wrote: "If they truly make you happy and they are who you want to be with for the rest of your life just make sure they know you are appreciative, grateful and thankful to have them and lucky to have them tell them you love them even you are mad.”
The mother of four broke up with her longtime boyfriend Geno Doak in early 2021 and was briefly linked to TikToker Jordan McCollum before she shared Justin's new tattoo.
The money-rose tattoo sits above an older piece Justin had done.
In June's October IG story clip, June didn’t give any clues as to who her new love interest was, and only tagged the tattoo artist, thanking him for the piece.
On October 18th, June showed off the new ink in a bathroom selfie on his Instagram page, tagging his location in Atlanta, Georgia.
MAMA'S LAST LOVE AFFAIR WAS ROCKY
June had a tumultuous relationship with her ex Geno as the couple struggled with substance abuse and both got arrested during their three-year-romance.
The Sun exclusively revealed that Geno had been sentenced to 16 months in prison on drug charges after his ex narrowly avoided any jail time related to the same 2019 incident.
According to court records, Geno was admitted into the Alabama prison system on July 29th, and was given a release date of November 28, 2022.
Geno's sentence will be served through the Community Corrections Program based out of Macon county.
June and Geno were arrested outside an Alabama gas station on charges of possession of crack cocaine on March 15, 2019.

Geno was also hit with a third-degree domestic violence charge, as well as a charge of possession of drug paraphernalia.
Fans of June are expecting her Road to Redemption series to return sometime this spring.
