Kate Gosselin Breaks Silence on Son Collin’s Estrangement Accusations
Watch : Kate Gosselin Says Son Collin Has "Multiple Psychiatric Diagnoses"
Kate Gosselin has broken her silence after her son Collin suggested she was behind his estrangement from several of his siblings.
The former Jon & Kate Plus 8 star pushed back in a lengthy social media message in which she alleges Collin has a history of violent behavior towards members of his family.
"I have never wanted to have to do this, but I feel I have been backed into a corner and left with no choice. Although it saddens me to do so, I need to speak out now," Kate wrote on Instagram July 21. "My son Collin, whom I love with all my heart, has received multiple psychiatric diagnoses over the years. For the safety of myself, his brothers and sisters and for his own well-being, he was placed in a facility following years of outpatient treatment which proved insufficient for his needs."
Kate, who is mom to 19-year-old sextuplets Collin, Hannah, Alexis, Aaden, Leah and Joel as well as 22-year-old twins Mady and Cara with ex-husband Jon Gosselin, further suggested that Collin's behavior has not improved since his placement in a health facility in 2016. (Collin, as well as sister Hannah, have lived with Jon since 2018.)
