Josh, who works as a mechanic, reportedly proposed at a restaurant after almost one year of dating — but not everyone is happy about the upcoming nuptials!
"I think they're too young for marriage. I hope they have a long engagement,” Josh’s grandmother Linda tells Radar. "She's very sweet, and I love my grandson.”

While she's not totally on board, Linda adds that she thinks Pumpkin is a “really nice girl.”
We wonder how Mama June and Sugar Bear feel about this!
