Collin Gosselin’s emotional TikTok post, love for siblings, abuse allegations against mother Kate and story of a broken family
Collin Gosselin’s Heartwarming TikTok Post
On August 7, 2025, Collin Gosselin posted a post on his TikTok that touched everyone’s heart.
Along with a childhood photo, he wrote, “Born to be a team, us against the world.”
He then shared a photo of himself driving with the caption, “Forced to drive alone, and every day wondering what our lives could have been.”
In the caption, he wrote for his siblings, “We were separated, pitted against each other…
The tears I shed behind closed doors, thinking about the memories we could have shared. I love you all.”
Reconnecting with Hannah
When asked about his relationship with sister Hannah, Collin happily said, “I just saw Hannah today!
She was worried her car wouldn’t pass inspection, so I was looking at her car.
She is so much fun and I love her so much.” He explained that the two are very busy, but whenever they meet, that moment is so special.
Painful past memories
Collin once again spoke about allegations of physical and emotional abuse by his mother.
He revealed that he was “locked up, kept in isolation, tied up with zip-ties” and sent away if he didn’t fit into his mother’s “equation.”
During a solo meeting at the age of 12, he was accused of “ruining the family.”
This is reminiscent of his September ‘The Sun’ interview, in which he mentioned a “containment room” in the basement of his home, which had cameras and a mattress.
Custody and education time
- 2009: Jon and Kate Gosselin divorce; Kate gets custody of all eight children.
- 2016: Kate puts Collin in a behavioral health institution for “unpredictable and violent behavior.”
- 2018: Collin and Hannah, 14, move in with their father Jon after he wins custody.
- June 2023: Both graduate from high school.
- August 2023: Collin enlists in the U.S. Marines, later discharged.
Family response
Kate’s attorney, Richard Puleo, declined to comment on Collin’s new allegations, saying his client does not comment to avoid losing context.
Meanwhile, sister Mady has publicly stated that she no longer speaks to Collin, citing alleged threats towards her and other family members.
Summary:
Collin Gosselin’s painful TikTok message to his siblings, reconnecting with Hannah, and painful abuse allegations against mother Kate spark a story of a broken family.
