Reality star Jessica "Chubbs" Shannon is officially a single woman. Just over four weeks after pulling the plug on her marriage to Shyann McCant, a Georgia judge signed off on their official breakup documents. Court records confirm that the pair’s union was legally dissolved in late August, putting a swift end to their brief time as spouses. According to the legal paperwork, the divorce decree was officially signed on August 27 in Jones County, Georgia. The fast-moving case comes right after Jessica submitted her initial divorce petition on July 24, wrapping up a marriage that lasted just 10 months. As part of the final resolution, the court formally restored Jessica's maiden name. Additionally, the judge placed a standard restriction on both exes, barring either party from harassing or bothering the other moving forward.

why did jessica shannon split from shyann mccant Trouble between the two first came to light earlier this summer when Jessica took to Facebook to set the record straight. On June 2, the 29-year-old daughter of Mama June Shannon posted a public statement revealing that she and the 23-year-old were no longer together. At the time, Jessica emphasized that the decision to walk away was completely mutual, telling her followers that both sides agreed ending the marriage was ultimately the healthiest path. The public announcement stunned fans who were still catching up on the couple's storyline on television. Although the duo quietly wed in late 2023, they later staged a second ceremony specifically for the cameras during the eighth season of *Mama June: Family Crisis*. That wedding episode aired on WEtv in May, meaning viewers watched them walk down the aisle just weeks before the real-life split took place.

Jessica first stepped into the pop-culture spotlight years ago on *Here Comes Honey Boo Boo* alongside her mother Mama June Shannon and younger sister Alana "Honey Boo Boo" Thompson. Over the years, she has remained a recurring presence on the family’s various reality spin-off series, sharing major life milestones with loyal viewers. Despite the emotional fallout of a public breakup, Jessica kept her messaging positive during the initial split, asking her fanbase to remain respectful of both women while they navigated the transition. Neither Jessica nor Shyann has publicly commented on the final decree being signed, but the legal decision brings a permanent close to their short-lived chapter together.
