Former TV personality Kate Gosselin’s children celebrated their 21st birthday. On May 11, 2025, she shared a heartfelt post on her sextuplets’ birthday. The post featured four of her six children, Joel, Alexis, Leah, and Aaden.
She captioned the post:
“And just like that, they turned 21! Happy Birthday to my 6! #GosselinSextuplets.”
This post comes immediately after the birthday wish from 2024, where she wrote:
“No more teenagers in this house! Happy 20th birthday, my forever babies! I love you! Who feels old? I know I do! #20yearsold #ItsaPICKLE.”
The other two children from the sextuplets, Collin and Hannah, live with their father, Jon Gosselin. Kate and Jon got hitched in 1999 but parted ways in 2009. They also share twin daughters, Cara and Mady. According to Us Weekly, Kate Gosselin and Collin have a difficult relationship.
Last year, Collin shared a statement with The U.S. Sun, saying:
“So, first and foremost, my relationship with my brothers and sisters is of top priority to me. And I think the only way that my mother and I would be able to reconnect and fix our relationship in the future is, if she would just come forward with the truth and all the things that she has kept under wraps.”
Kate Gosselin and Jon ran a TV show named Jon & Kate Plus 8 from 2007 to 2017. However, following the couple’s separation, the show was renamed to Kate Plus 8. Jon also posted an Instagram showing a birthday celebration with Hannah.
