A shocking report makes its way online today, and it has something to do with the ongoing scandal that actually got Here Comes Honey Boo Boo canceled. It turns out that Mama June's molester boyfriend forced himself on June's own daughter, Anna, aka Chickadee.

Up until yesterday, the identity of the little child he had molested was kept a secret, but now TMZ has decided to offer more details on what is becoming a very disturbing story. Mama June denied that she was secretly dating Mark McDaniel, a man who was accused and convicted years ago for molesting an 8-year-old girl by forcing oral relations with her.

June denied she was dating McDaniel, but her daughter came forward with the story, revealing that she was the victim

McDaniel has been serving time in prison, but Mama June began dating him after he got out and she dumped her former boyfriend Sugar Bear. When the first photos emerged, showing the two of them in a hotel bed, the reality star vehemently denied that she was seeing McDaniel behind everyone's back, being supported by McDaniel's own son.

The victim of the molestation, now in her 20s and married, initially believed her mother's story that she and McDaniel did not have any recent contact, but the source claims that evidence was brought to her attention and now she's convinced that her mother went behind her back and dated her molester.

It was actually Anna herself who came forward and identified herself as the victim of the molestation, because she wanted everyone to know that her mother was dating the very man who abused her as a child. From initial reports, it seems that Chickadee “feels her relationship with her mom has been destroyed.”

TLC canceled the reality series in the wake of these discoveries

Meanwhile, TLC has found out about the illicit affair and promptly decided to pull the plug on the series, despite Mama June claiming that she hadn't met McDaniel in over a decade.

The network announced that it would be pulling the plug on the ongoing reality series, despite its popularity, and that it wasn't going to air the episodes that had been already shot in preparation for the new season.

While the crew left the family, it's been revealed that the network will continue to help the children by bringing in tutors and counselors to help them deal with the situation. Also, they reached out to Chickadee and offered her counseling as well, hoping to help her deal with the current state of affairs.
