Jon Gosselin says ex Kate has ‘no contact’ with their son Collin, 15
KATE Gosselin currently has “no contact” with her 15-year-old son Collin, according to her ex-husband Jon Gosselin.
He claimed in a new interview that the star, 44, isn’t part of the child’s life, two years after he moved in with Jon.
The former reality star, who has custody of 15-year-olds Collin and Hannah, made the allegation while opening up about his eight kids and ex-wife on podcast on Tuesday.
, 42, said: “[In 2018], I got sole custody of Collin. Kate has no contact with him. There was a whole bunch of stuff that happened with him.”
The “stuff” the father of eight was referring to is the special needs facility placed Collin in back in 2016, which is where he stayed until Jon won custody two years later.
Over the course of his years there, Kate, who has custody of four of the sextuplet siblings, only visited Collin three times, Jon alleged in a .
He said once he found out his son was placed in a facility, he worked to find out the location and began visiting him, while petitioning for guardianship.
Jon shared: “I'd drive out to Pittsburgh to visit him as much as I could and eventually it progressed to overnight stays before he was finally released into my custody.”
Kate’s little contact with Collin while he was sent away has now allegedly become no contact, and Jon claimed from having a relationship with him, too.
The former Jon & Kate Plus 8 star said: “There is no contact between Collin and his other siblings.
“There is contact between Hannah and the other siblings.

“So the problem right now is we have parent alienation and we have sibling alienation.”
Jon revealed he’s had “nine attorneys [and] probably spent $1.3 million in court, back and forth with everything else,” during his ongoing legal battle with Kate, after the two got divorced in 2009.
The father of eight, who is about all of this, explained that he “didn’t give up,” which is how he was able to get custody of Collin and Hannah, and it’s also why “there could be more [kids] that come” to stay with him in the future.
