According to a new report, 53-year-old Mark McDaniel supposedly had a lot to do with Mama June's split from Sugar Bear. A few weeks ago it was announced that "Here Comes Honey Boo Boo" stars Mama June and Sugar Bear were divorcing after Bear was caught creeping on the dating site, PlentyofFish.com.

It was said that Bear's alleged cheating is what caused the breakup, but now TMZ claims that Mama June may have been the one sneaking around behind her husband's back. Several sources told TMZ that June has been reportedly dating McDaniel since March, ever since he was released from prison for child molestation.

According to TMZ, McDaniel served 10 years behind bars for forcing an 8-year-old girl to have oral sex with him. Allegedly, that young victim turned out to be June's daughter, Anna, who is now 20-years-old. June has denied the romance rumors but sources close to the family told TMZ that she kept a box of photographs of McDaniel, which often led to fights with Bear.

The site claims that Bear believed his wife was still emotionally in a relationship with McDaniel even though he was in jail. Sources believe June used Bear's online dating profile scandal to bail on a marriage she had already mentally checked out of.

Over the weekend, photos of June and McDaniel surfaced of them reportedly looking at houses in Hampton, Ga. In one picture, posted by TMZ, the two are seen holding hands and smiling. The site claims the photos are from last month.

Despite the evidence of a relationship, June has continued to deny that she is dating McDaniel. In a "Truth Video" posted to her daughter Alanna "Honey Boo Boo" Thompson's Facebook page, the matriarch said she hasn't seen or talked to McDaniel in 10 years.

"I have not seen that person in 10 years, and do not seem to want to see that person," she said in the video posted to Facebook. "We just want to thank from the bottom of our hearts the support that we've had from our fans since May 2012... The experience has been awesome to us. The girls have been able to do things that they would not normally have had to do."

People magazine reported that because of Mama June's supposed romance with McDaniel there's a chance that she could lose custody of her kids. A spokesperson from child services in Georgia told the magazine that someone may look into the case to see if the kids are safe.

"Generally speaking, when we receive a report that children are living around a sex offender... it would certainly raise to the level of concern of us looking into it," said Susan Boatwright of Georgia's Division of Family and Child Services.
