Recently, June, Jessica, and Pumpkin showed up in an Access Hollywood interview to discuss the show’s new season storylines. Talking to the host, Pumpkin revealed how her new relationship with Darrin is going. She said that since her children stay with her and her partner on the weekend, they remain quite busy and worn out.

Darrin has a permanent, full-time job that gets him out in the morning and back in the afternoon.
