Even though Mama June heard that she was not Stroud's type and that he was not single, it turned out not to be accurate as she was his type and he was single.

The reality star revealed that initially, Stroud's relationship with her daughters, Alana "Honey Boo Boo" Thompson, Lauryn "Pumpkin" Efird, and Jessica "Chubbs" Shannon, was rocky.
