Kate Gosselin is finally breaking her silence over the tension in her family.
In a statement to People, the “Jon & Kate Plus 8” star claimed her son Collin received inpatient psychiatric treatment in the past for “unpredictable and violent behavior.”
“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,” she wrote. “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.”
The family drama began when Collin and Jon spoke on the Vice documentary “Dark Side of the 2000s”, where the father of eight claimed he had “no idea” why he was estranged from six of his eight kids. Collin, who lives with his sister Hannah and Jon, said he was similarly estranged from the family after Kate institutionalized him in 2016, claiming she was keeping him from the rest of his siblings, via Page Six. His father has contested in the past that Collin has “never been diagnosed with any known medical condition” other than ADHD, and removed him from the facility in 2018.
