Lauryn “Pumpkin” Efird is considering taking legal action against a private elementary school after it allegedly revoked her daughter Ella’s acceptance because of the reality star’s adult content. Pumpkin claims the Georgia school initially moved forward with Ella’s application before administrators abruptly changed course after learning about her social media presence. The mother of four believes the school should have disclosed any concerns before accepting her daughter and taking money from the family.
Pumpkin Claims School Withdrew Ella’s Acceptance
Pumpkin told TMZ that she contacted the private school approximately a week and a half before administrators allegedly withdrew Ella’s acceptance. According to the reality star, staff members were initially welcoming and communicative throughout the process.
Pumpkin also visited the campus and claimed nobody raised concerns about her online work during that meeting. However, she said she was called into another meeting on Friday morning, where administrators allegedly informed her that they knew about her social media content and no longer believed her family aligned with the school’s values.
The school then withdrew Ella’s acceptance, according to Pumpkin. The private institution reportedly agreed to refund the money Pumpkin had already paid. The name of the school was not included in the available report.
Reality Star Says Her Daughter Is Better Off Elsewhere
Pumpkin claimed she did not argue with administrators after being informed of the decision. Instead, she reportedly told the school that its response convinced her Ella did not belong there. “Now that I know you guys are this judgy, my child doesn’t need to be here anyway,” she said.
Although she does not appear interested in sending Ella back to the school, Pumpkin is now considering whether to pursue legal action over how the application was handled. She reportedly believes administrators should have raised any objections to her adult content before continuing with Ella’s enrollment process.
No lawsuit was reported to have been filed, and Pumpkin did not identify an attorney representing her in the potential dispute. The school has also not been quoted responding publicly to her version of events.

Pumpkin’s Adult Content Has Sparked Family Concerns
The school controversy comes as Pumpkin continues expanding her career beyond reality television. Following her 2024 divorce from Josh Efird, the “Mama June: Family Crisis” personality began producing explicit subscription content and accepting paid dancing appearances at strip clubs.
Mama June Shannon has publicly supported her daughter’s right to make those career decisions. However, she has also warned Pumpkin about the possible long-term consequences. Speaking with TMZ earlier this month, June cautioned that “all money ain’t good money.”
Her concerns were not limited to public criticism. June specifically worried about the permanent nature of online content and the possibility that Pumpkin’s four children could encounter the material when they are older.
While the children may not currently understand their mother’s work, June noted that content uploaded to the internet can remain accessible in the future. Despite those reservations, June insisted that the subject had not created a rift between her and Pumpkin. She acknowledged that her daughter is an adult and ultimately has the right to decide how she earns money.
Mama June’s Daughter Claims Career Has Been Lucrative
Pumpkin has claimed that the financial returns from her new venture have been substantial. The reality star reportedly earned close to six figures during her first two weeks on the subscription platform. Some individual videos offered through her page have reportedly been priced at approximately $100.
Pumpkin currently creates content with her boyfriend, Darrin Kitchens. Kitchens is connected to her former husband through his stepfather. She has also discussed expanding the type of material she produces with Kitchens.
Pumpkin Claims She Earns Thousands From Strip Club Appearances
In addition to creating online content, Pumpkin has begun appearing as a paid dancer at strip clubs around the country. She recently performed at Diamonds & Lace in Chattanooga, Tennessee. Pumpkin has claimed she earns thousands of dollars from those appearances before tips are added.
