Alana ‘Honey Boo Boo’ Thompson has returned to Georgia to be with her family, sparking speculation about her college attendance. The Regis University freshman had previously headed back to Georgia following the passing of her sister, Anna Cardwell. However, it remains unclear why Alana is back in Georgia and whether it signifies the end of her college journey.
In the current season of Mama June: Family Crisis, viewers witness Alana grappling with her future. Although she desired to attend college in Colorado, her boyfriend, Dralin Carswell, encountered some troubles that may prevent him from joining her. Additionally, her sister’s battle with cancer has left Alana torn about making the right decision. With a scholarship offer of $21,000 and limited time to decide, she ultimately decides to go to college with Dralin, acknowledging the emotional challenges she may face. Alana expressed her fears of not being with Anna if something were to happen.
After spending time with her family during Anna’s final days and following her passing, Alana returned to Colorado. However, a follower captured a live video of Alana at Pumpkin’s house, leading to speculation about her college status. The Regis University website does not indicate any current holidays or vacations. This raises questions about why Alana is back in Georgia and whether she is still attending school.
Some Redditors suggested that Alana may be home due to a federal holiday, but according to the school calendar, the most recent holiday was on January 15 for Martin Luther King Jr. Day, and the next one will be on March 29 for Good Friday. Classmates of Alana also confirmed that they had classes and that the school was not on a break.
The reason for Alana’s current presence in Georgia remains unknown. It is possible that her classes are primarily online to accommodate the recent traumatic events she has experienced. Alternatively, her situation may warrant additional flexibility from the school due to her sister’s passing. It is also plausible that her teachers granted the class a day off, although the school itself was open.
The circumstances surrounding Alana’s temporary return to Georgia and her college status are still unclear. However, fans hope that she is finding happiness amidst the challenges she has faced.
