"To answer questions … YES! Alan and I fact Engaged! I proposed to him this past weekend and he said YES!" Uncle Poodle, who was diagnosed HIV-positive in 2012, tweeted on Wednesday, Sept. 17. "Damn I love this man, the love of my life and now fiancee, Alan I love you!"

This past week, TLC released a statement on behalf of Honey Boo Boo's mother and her boyfriend of a decade, saying: "Sugar Bear and I have decided to take some time apart to figure out some things in our relationship. We are taking things day by day, but regardless of what happens, the girls will always be our number one priority. We want to thank y'all for your support."

In addition to Alana "Honey Boo Boo," Mama June is also mother to daughters Pumpkin, Chickadee and Chubbs from a previous relationship.


Congrats to Uncle Poodle!
