Kate Gosselin and her eight children became superstars overnight thanks to TLC’s Kate Plus 8. However, the series often cast the mother in an ever-controlling light, which left many questioning her parenting. As the children grew up, a few decided to speak out. Collin Gosselin has been the most critical of his mother. He is now speaking about her time on Special Forces: World’s Toughest Test.
Colin Gosselin thinks he can beat his mother’s record
Even though Collin’s dreams of being a United States Marine were cut short, he still aspires to be close to the armed forces. However, the route back might be unconventional, as Collin noted he would happily return to reality TV to participate in Special Forces. Collin thinks it would be a “cool opportunity” telling the U.S. Sun he wants to show his estranged mother what he is “capable of.” Kate, who starred in Season 2 last year and had an abysmal showing and, cried a lot during her short-lived stint.
I mean, even Tom Sandoval, who got carried off, did better. The mother of 8 decided to withdraw from the competition after the first episode due to a neck injury. Collin told the outlet, “I actually watched Special Forces. I think it’s a very neat show. And what was upsetting is having to watch her kind of struggle through it, and it seems like she had a very difficult time on Special Forces.”
Collin Gosselin still feels empathy for his mom
The freshman in college added, “Despite my mother, and you know her, her constant effort to protect her reputation at the cost of mine, and the things that she has said about me and the things that she has done to me, in my heart. I feel sorry for her.” Last month, Collin accused Kate of abusing him when he was a young child. He described that his mother would zip-tie his hands and feet together while locking him in their basement. Collin has been estranged from his mother and most of his other siblings since 2016 after Kate committed him to a mental institution. At the time, Collin was just 11 years old.
