Mama June and her daughters have not seen eye to eye recently. She is estranged from her daughters and as a result, it seems she might have missed her granddaughter's birthday.
Lauren "Pumpkin" is the mother of Ella Grace. She recently had to fight her mother, Mama June, to get custody of her younger sister Alana "Honey Boo Boo."
Meanwhile, their mother took off with her boyfriend Geno Doak. Ella Grace, June’s granddaughter turned two-years-old this weekend and some fans wondered if she made it to the celebrations.

I can’t wait to continue to see you grow into such a wonderful little girl. You’ll always be mommy’s baby. I love you sweet face @ellagraceefird."
