Collin Gosselin Claims He Was ‘Forced Apart’ From His Siblings in TikTok: ‘I Will Always Love Them’

Jon and Kate Gosselin’s son Collin is still mourning the loss of his relationships with his siblings.

In a TikTok shared on August 7, Collin, 21, shared a throwback photo of him and the other sextuplets – Hannah, Leah, Alexis, Aaden and Joel —and his older twin sisters, Mady and Cara, 24, as he hinted at the reasons behind their estrangement.

“Born to be a team, us against the world,” he captioned the video. “Forced to do it alone, and wonder every day what our lives could’ve looked like.”

The former reality star then alleged they’d been “forced apart” and “pitted against each other” during their childhood.

“All the fame and money in the world, but what about kids being kids?” he continued. “I will always love them more than anything. The tears I shed behind closed doors, thinking about the memories we could’ve shared. I love you guys.”

Collin and his siblings starred in the hit TLC reality show Jon & Kate Plus 8 from 2007 to 2009. However, following his parents’ tumultuous split, the show was rebranded to simply Kate Plus 8 in 2010.

As Star previously reported, Collin and Hannah – who both lived with their dad at one point after the divorce – accused Kate of separating Collin from their other siblings when they were kids.

“Like, he would not get to come and play outside with us. He would eat dinner at different times than us,” Hannah said on the docuseries The Dark Side of the 2000s.

Collin also alleged in the series that his mother had him committed to Fairmont Behavioral Health Institute in Philadelphia when he’d started to talk with his teachers at school about being abused at home.

In a July 2023 statement shared to her Instagram, Kate denied the allegations and insisted that he was sent away “for the safety of myself, his brothers and sisters and for his own well-being” following “multiple psychiatric diagnoses.”

Last year, he made additional allegations of abuse, claiming that Kate had “zip-tied” his hands and feet together and locked him in their basement when he was a child. In an interview with The Sun, he said she would often leave him there with the “lights off” and surveillance cameras on so that she could keep an eye on him.

“Most of the day I was in that room and I was away from my siblings and I never really went outside,” he continued. “I never played with them. I was kept there. It was literally containment.”
