Collin Gosselin, the 19-year-old son of former reality TV star Kate Gosselin, has shared a heartbreaking revelation about his strained relationship with his siblings. In a candid interview, Collin admitted that the family rift has left him feeling isolated and emotionally drained.
'It's Like We Don't Exist'
Collin, one of Kate and Jon Gosselin's sextuplets, revealed that communication with his siblings has completely broken down. 'It's like we don't exist to each other anymore,' he confessed, describing the pain of growing up apart from his brothers and sisters.
A Family Divided
The Gosselin family first rose to fame on the TLC show 'Jon & Kate Plus 8,' which documented their lives as parents of twins and sextuplets. However, after Jon and Kate's divorce in 2009, the family dynamic drastically changed. Collin has since lived primarily with his father, while his siblings remained with Kate.
Emotional Toll
Collin spoke openly about the emotional toll the estrangement has taken on him. 'It's hard not having that connection with the people you grew up with,' he said. 'We used to be so close, and now it's like we're strangers.' He also hinted at unresolved tensions within the family but chose not to delve into specifics.
Public Scrutiny
The Gosselin children have grown up under intense public scrutiny, and Collin acknowledged how this has affected their relationships. 'Being in the spotlight made everything more complicated,' he admitted. 'We didn’t get to have a normal childhood, and that’s something we’ll always carry with us.'
Despite the challenges, Collin remains hopeful for reconciliation. 'I’d love to have a relationship with them again one day,' he said. 'Family is important, and I hope we can find a way back to each other.'
