Honey Boo Boo’s mother, June Shannon, has stated that her granddaughter Kaitlyn will not be having surgery to remove the extra thumb on her right hand anytime soon.

Kaitlyn, whose mother is June Shannon’s 18-year-old daughter Anna “Chickadee”, was born on July 26 and shortly after the bone abnormality was detected.

But it has been revealed that doctors do not want to operate on the two-month-old infant, as they would rather wait until her digits are fully developed.

Talking about the possibility of her grandchild having her extra thumb amputated, 33-year-old June Shannon, from McIntyre Georgia, told RadarOnline.com that corrective surgery has been delayed until a later date.

“The doctor doesn’t want to do anything right now because they don’t know the full function of the other thumb or if they’re both connected,” she said.

“They just have to wait and see. They don’t want to do it too early, if they cut one off the other could have paralysis or it could make the other fingers not work, so they don’t want to make any rash decisions.”

Reports surfaced shortly after Kaitlyn’s birth that June Shannon had made inappropriate comments about the physical abnormality, which she denied.

Talking about her first grandchild, the mother-of-four exclaimed: “She’s just special; I would never make fun of her.

“That is not right. It makes her more unique and special to us. We don’t even pay attention to it. We don’t make a big deal about it.”

June Shannon and her family shot to fame on TLC’S Toddlers & Tiaras.

They currently star in the spin-off series Here Comes Honey Boo Boo, with the season finale set to air this Wednesday.

Caleb Clark, 19, from Griffin, Georgia, previously came forward as Kaitlyn’s father. He claimed he fathered the child after dating Anna Shannon for two years during high school.

June Shannon added that her grandchild “may or may not ever” get surgery to remove the double thumbs and they will wait for a while before returning to hospital.

Anne Taylor’s LOFT line has given its shoppers an obvious and embarrassing Photoshop fail.

In product shots for Ann Taylor’s LOFT line, two models sport extremely bent out of shape and misplaced thumbs.

Advertising the brand’s Linen Twill Shorts, the model appears to have a jarring thumb popping straight out of her wrist, with the rest of her hand in the front pocket.

In a shot for LOFT’s Marisa Cargo Pants in White Cotton Poplin, the model seems to have her whole hand in the pant pocket, with a foreign thumb poking out from her wrist.

One can only assume the models stuffed their whole hands into the pockets for the shoot – forgetting to place their thumbs naturally outside the fold.

Instead it appears the digital team has added two thumbs in post-production, in an effort to get rid of the “disappearing hand” syndrome often seen in shoots.

This is not Ann Taylor’s first Photoshop fail, however.

The brand’s most famous airbrushing mishap was featured on its website a year ago, when a model’s entire arm was removed.

Anne Taylor eventually pulled the image from its website, replacing it with a variety of T-shirt color options.
