Overview

  • Kate Gosselin shared photos on Instagram celebrating the 21st birthdays of four of her sextuplets—Alexis, Leah, Aaden, and Joel—at a restaurant gathering.
  • Jon Gosselin marked the occasion separately with daughter Hannah at Fig & Barrel, alongside his fiancée Stephanie Lebo.
  • Collin Gosselin, who has been estranged from his mother and several siblings, was not part of Kate’s celebration and remains distant from much of the family.
  • The sextuplets’ milestone comes after years of documented family conflict, including custody battles and Collin’s 2024 public allegations of childhood abuse by Kate, which remain contested.
  • The Gosselin family first gained public attention through their reality TV series 'Jon & Kate Plus 8,' which aired from 2007 to 2017, chronicling life with their eight children.
