"Since two months to almost six years, she knew nobody but him," Shannon explained. "She was starting to resent Anna and she was starting to ask me questions."
Shannon's oldest daughter, Anna "Chickadee" Cardwell, 20, says McDaniel molested her when she was 8.
Shannon also drops this bombshell: She says that Pumpkin's biological father is also the father of her 18-year-old daughter Jessica. His name is Michael Anthony Ford and he, too, is a convicted sex offender who served time for sexual exploitation of minors after being caught on To Catch a Predator in 2005. "Jessica and Pumpkin have the same dad, but Jessica's dad has had nothing to do with her over the years," Shannon said. "So, why the hell would I open up that can of worms until today? I lied to my family and told them it was somebody else."
Shannon is also set to appear on Dr. Phil on Monday. Among the early snippets released, we learn that Shannon says she's no longer seeing McDaniel. "He's moved on, he's got a girlfriend and it's not me.”
