'Honey Boo Boo' family gets at least $10,000 salary bump per episode from TLC: report

The stars of “Here Comes Honey Boo Boo” may dumpster-dive and shop at Walmart, but they can no longer blame it on being broke.

Alana Thompson and crew got a huge salary jump after episode two of the first season, TMZ.com reports. When it was clear the show was a hit, TLC bumped their earnings from between $5,000 and $7,000 each per episode to between $15,000 and $20,000 each per episode, says the site.

Sources told TMZ the network is also covering other expenses, and offered to find the family a bigger house, but Alana’s mama June refused.
