In her social media statement, Kate Gosselin said that it was actually “emergency room doctors” that suggested Collin Gosselin be sent to a special facility after he used a “weapon” during one of his “outbursts.” The mom of eight also said that even though Collin has gone to live with his father — her ex-husband Jon Gosselin — on a full-time basis, his “violent behaviors” still occur. She called her son’s recollection of the past a “distorted reality.” Echoing what Collin said during his interview with Vice, Kate explains that they don’t have any contact. Collin says that he hasn’t had contact with his mom or his seven siblings (not counting Hannah Gosselin, who lives with him and their dad) in a decade.
Kate was sure to note that her daughter, Mady Gosselin, was being truthful in the statement she previously made about her estranged brother and praised her for her “bravery” in speaking out. Meanwhile, the reaction that Kate is getting has been less than supportive — and many social media users have even encouraged Gosselin to delete her post. “I thought this was going to be like a loving mother post and reconciling but you just aired his personal information to the public. You have no business doing this and only added salt to the wound,” one Instagram user wrote. “This post is disgusting and doesn’t help your reputation,” another Instagram comment read. Kate says that she won’t be discussing the matter further.
