There goes Honey Boo Boo.
One day after June Shannon of TLC's 'Here Comes Honey Boo Boo' was accused of being romantically involved with registered sex offender, Mark McDaniel, the network canceled the reality series after four seasons, TMZ reported.
TLC reportedly felt Mama June was putting her children at risk.
'Supporting the health and welfare of these remarkable children is our only priority. TLC is faithfully committed to the children's ongoing comfort and well-being,' they said in a statement to the gossip site.
Ahead of the cancellation news, June took to Facebook late Thursday to deny the reports.
'I want to make a post trying to clear up the rumors remember you can't believe everything you read! Ppl sell stories to the tabloid everyday that r false,' the 35-year-old wrote.
'It isn't true I promise my kids r #1 priority over anything else and I would never put them in danger period over this or anything else they r my life this is my past I left him 10 yrs ago for it and I wouldn't go back.'
McDaniel, 53, was convicted of aggravated child molestation in 2004 and just got out of jail after serving a 10-year sentence for sexually assaulting one of June's relatives.
Despite her denial of her present involvement with McDaniel, the two were photographed in a picture obtained by TMZ that they reported to be recent.

The mother-of-four reportedly snuck away from production on the TLC reality series to spend time with McDaniel.
June just split from her partner of 10 years, Sugar Bear, last month.
The two were never officially married but did exchange vows in a commitment ceremony in May.
Sugar Bear is the father to her 9-year-old beauty pageant contestant daughter, Alana 'Honey Boo Boo' Thompson.
The show, which is taped McIntyre, Ga., began filming in 2012 after the family was first featured on another TLC series, 'Toddlers & Tiaras.'
