Less than two weeks after the death of her daughter, Anna “Chickadee” Cardwell, Mama June Shannon is now in a custody battle over her granddaughter, Kaitlyn.
According Sun, Cardwell’s ex-husband, Michael, filed a lawsuit against Mama June Shannon for custody of Kaitlyn. Michael is the biological father of Kylee, Anna’s youngest daughter, and has full custody of her. In the lawsuit documents, Michael stated that he has “fully and completely assumed a permanent, unequivocal, committed and responsible fatherly role in Kaityn’s life.
The documents further noted that Cardwell’s ex “has agreed to constantly care for the child and has established a bonding and dependency relationship with the child.”
Although he and Mama June’s daughter Shannon finally broke up in 2017, he still had a regular visiting schedule with Kylee, which included time with Kaitlyn. Additionally, he noted that he is in an independent relationship with Kaitlyn.
“Both the petitioner and the father understood, recognized, accepted and behaved as if the petitioner were the father of the child,” the documents continue. “And he accepted full and permanent responsibilities as the child’s father without expectation of financial compensation.”
Anna’s ex also shared that Kaitlyn’s father is a man named Caleb Clark, who allegedly never took a DNA test or supported Kaitlyn. He noted that Clark has no legal rights to her.
Anna ‘Chickadee’ Cardwell’s ex addressed the difficult relationship between her and mom June Shannon
Meanwhile, Anna “Chickadee” Cardwell’s ex Michael also addressed the difficult relationship between her and her mother, Mama June Shannon.
In court documents, Michael claimed that Anna had been raised by her maternal grandmother in Griffin, Georgia. She had done it since she was about eight years old. She only returned to Mama June Shannon’s house when she was 17 years old.
“Anna has had a very sordid relationship with her mother throughout her life,” the documents reveal. “And he went several periods of time without speaking to her. Likewise, June’s presence in the minor’s life has been inconsistent.”
Michael noted that he has also paid and continues to pay for Kaitlyn’s education. “The petitioner has been a stable and constant part of the child’s life since she was eight months old,” the documents read. “And she has continued to do so even years after her divorce from Anna.”
Michael added that he is the only person alive who has shown a consistent and continued interest in Kaitlyn’s well-being.
Mama June Shannon was served with the court papers on Sunday, December 17.
