'Jon and Kate Plus 8' lies shrouded in the ten-year history of Reality TV. TLC premiered the show with multiple kids in 2007, later changing it to "Kate Plus 8." That came after a rather messy divorce between Jon Gosselin and Kate, the parents of eight children. The last time we saw "Kate Plus 8" was in 2017, but Jon was long out of it. Nevertheless, six of the children in the family were sextuplets Hannah, Collin, Alexis, Aaden, Joel, and Leah.
If you forgot the show, a set of twins, Kara and Madelyn made up the huge number of children. Today, the sextuplets turn 15-years-old already, and Joon wished them a 'happy birthday.'
Jon Gosselin of 'Jon and Kate Plus 8' got custody of two sextuplets
Since the end of the show, "Kate Plus 8," Jon and his wife Kate made the headlines after son Collin got sent "away." It never really became clear where he ended up, other than he needed "anger management" help. However, more recently, Collin lives with his dad Jon, who gained at least temporary custody late last year. Also, Hannah opted to live with her dad as well.
More recently, Jon made the news as these days he enjoys being a DJ.
TV Shows Ace reported this week that "Jon Gosselin took to his Instagram ahead of the weekend and announced his DJ gig at Chili’s Cinco De Mayo. Fans of TLC’s "Jon and Kate Plus 8" and "Kate Plus 8" got a bit of a surprise when he popped up advertising it on Instagram. So, while it's a far cry from reality TV, he seems happy doing what he does. He has a girlfriend and Hannah and Collin seem to get along fine with her.
Jon wishes the sextuplets a happy birthday
Taking to his Instagram again, Jon posted a photo of him, Collin, and Hannah. He captioned it with, "Happy 15th Birthday Hannah, Collin, Alexis, Aaden, Joel and Leah!!!!
Wow, I can’t believe you are 15!!! Time is flying by!!! I love you all very much. I wish you the best day ever and I hope you enjoy your birthday celebrations today and this weekend!!! Love always, Dad." Aww that's nice, and let's hope all the kids enjoyed the message.
However, kids get caught up in bad relationships, and this couple really has been at war for a decade. Radar Online reminds us that "On June 22, 2009, Kate filed for divorce, and the two started a vicious battle for custody of the kids. Twins Maddy and Cara, along with younger siblings Leah, Aaden, Alexis, and Joel decided to live with their mother. Hannah went to live with her dad." So, how close Jon is to the other kids is not really known.
Certainly, Kate and Jon still don't even pretend to be friends.
Probably, the chances that the whole family gets together to celebrate the 15-year-milestone, is unlikely. The feuding between the sextuplets' parents never really stopped. Perhaps it's time for everyone to chill a little bit after all this time.
What do you think of the sextuplets from the Gosselin family turning 15-years-old already? Do you remember them all from the show?
