Colin Gosselin has a message for his seemingly evil mother.
Earlier this week, the former reality star spoke to The Sun about the rift in her relationship with parent Kate Gosselin…nearly a month after raising the damning allegations against her.
“First and foremost, my relationships with my brothers and sisters are my number one priority,” the 20-year-old told the magazine.
“And I think the only way that my mom and I can reconnect and repair our relationship in the future is for my mom to come out with the truth and all the things she’s been keeping secret.”
There’s a lot of background here.
In 2018, Jon Gosselin was granted custody of his son after Colin wrote a letter to his father asking for help in a mental health facility.
Years later, Colin accused Kate of institutionalizing him to cover up the abuse he suffered at her hands – revealed in a shocking July 2023 interview on Vice’s 2000s series Darkside. It became.
“You know she has tried many times to smear my name and my father’s name,” Colin told The Sun on October 8. [But] Yes, that door is 100 percent open.
Colin is one of Kate and John’s eight children, including twins Maddie and Carla, 24, and sextuplets Alexis, Arden, Hannah and Leah. and Joel (20 years old).
The family’s life was chronicled on the TLC series John & Kate Plus 8 (later renamed Kate Plus 8 after their 2009 divorce), which aired from 2007 to 2017.
At the moment, Colin and Hannah are living with their father (and have not spoken to their siblings), and Kate has other family members. There may also be money issues.
Last month, Colin told The Sun that his mother was physically and verbally abusive to him and even forced him to live in her basement.
“My mother built a room in the unfinished part of the basement of the warehouse. Her room had a camera installed and a small window in the corner that was bolted from the outside,” he said. told the newspaper in an interview published on September 9.
“It was literally like a holding cell, with mattresses on the floor. That’s how I lived.”
He also claimed that Duchess Kate “tied my hands and feet with cable ties, bolted the door, turned off the lights, and placed a camera there to monitor me.”
That would be really scary if true.
But Kate insists these accusations are false.
“I’ve been silent for a long time, but I’m tired of Colin and John controlling my narrative. And it’s all lies,” Gosselin previously said online. He lashed out at his son.
“I don’t support fiction, no matter who creates it.”
“I cannot support any distorted and fictitious reporting.”
