MAMA June has vowed never to walk down the aisle following her heartbreaking split from long term boyfriend Sugar Bear, but she insists she is still looking for love.
The Here Comes Honey Boo Boo star admits she is still reeling from the break-down of her relationship and is now determined to “concentrate on me”.
The US reality star, 37, shocked her fans last month when she revealed she had dropped from 33 stone to a tiny size eight for her new show Not To Hot after undergoing gastric sleeve surgery.
Mama June has undergone a number of surgeries to transform her figure including a gastric bypass, a tummy tuck, a breast lift and skin removal from her neck and arms.
She also underwent a fat freezing procedure to get rid of her triple chin ‘turkey neck’.

The makeover came after her split from Mike “Sugar Bear” Thompson in September 2014, and she has now admitted she has lost hope of ever getting married.
But she remains optimistic in her search for love and hopes she can find a man who loves her and her kids.
Mama June told Usmagazine.com: “”[Marriage] and June does not go in the same sentence…
“The type of guy I’m attracted to would be someone who is very loving, very caring, very devoted, is willing to give 100 percent like I am.
“Someone who knows that my kids are a number-one priority and knows that no matter what they are going to be here.
“And also someone who can be my best friend, but also we can have that seriousness to our relationship.
“I’ve just kind of backed off [dating] and concentrated on me for right now.”
She added that she has no plans to ever reunite with Sugar Bear after he broke her heart: “Hell, no!
“Never in a million years do I ever want that son of a b**ch back.”
The pair never formally married, but they held a commitment ceremony in 2013 – a year before the split.
He is now set to walk down the aisle with his new partner Jennifer Lamb, and Mama June’s comments come after she was recently seen trying on wedding dresses on the show.
Her daughter Honey Boo Boo was chosen to be part of Sugar Bear’s ceremony, and Mama June decided to show off her new figure by trying on a wedding dress while out shopping for her girl’s frock.
