Collin Gosselin Claims His Mom Kate Took Her ‘Anger And Frustration’ Out On Him

Former reality star Collin Gosselin, who rose to fame in the reality series “Jon & Kate Plus 8,” made accusations against his estranged mom Kate during an interview. 

The 19-year-old said his mom seemed to take “out her anger and frustration” on him as she was going through a divorce while facing the challenges of raising eight young children.

“I know my mother was going through a lot of things. I mean, a divorce and plenty of different things that can’t be easy to go through,” Collin said in a preview of Vice TV’s “Dark Side of the 2000s” documentary.

“And, you know, I want to think that she needed someone to take out her anger and frustration on, and it was just kind of me,” he continued. “I was in the way and I was there. So, she chose me.”

Collin said he was not a “perfect child,” he also thinks his “misbehaving was no different than” his siblings. He is one of the sextuplets along with Leah, Hannah, Alexis, Aaden, and Joel. His two older siblings are twins Madelyn and Cara, 22.

Hannah was also interviewed and confirmed the accusations her brother was making. “[Collin] would be separated from us,” she claimed in the documentary. “Like, he would not get to come and play outside with us. He would eat dinner at different times than us.”

“I don’t think effort was made in the home to help him learn what behavior is acceptable and what behavior is not acceptable,” Hannah said. 

Kate said she enrolled Collin, then 12, into a behavioral learning facility in 2016, per Buzzfeed. His father Jon took him out of the school in 2018, and he was awarded full custody of Collin at that time. 

“After being [in the facility], I didn’t have a relationship with her,” Collin told Entertainment Tonight in November. “Even before [being] there, I don’t think we had much of a relationship and I think that just kept tearing it even more down.”

“I want to believe it was because of TV and what being in the public eye does to a family. I think it tore us apart,” he said. “It gave us less time to actually be together as a family, [and] more time to be in the public eye.”

Rainn Wilson Says He Was ‘Mostly Unhappy’ Filming ‘The Office’ Because ‘It Wasn’t Enough’

Actor Rainn Wilson, best known for playing Dwight Schrute on the NBC workplace comedy “The Office,” recently revealed some of his negative feelings about his time on the series. 

During an appearance on Bill Maher’s “Club Random” podcast, the 57-year-old actor admitted that he became obsessed with becoming more successful.

“When I signed up for ‘The Office,’ it’s like, I want to buy a house, Bill Maher, I want to buy a house…I wasn’t thinking about giving laughter as a therapeutic remedy and a balm and a salve to a hurting populace. What an honor it was to be a part of something like that,” Wilson said.

“When I was in ‘The Office,’ I spent several years really mostly unhappy because it wasn’t enough. This is what I’m looking at now, and I’m realizing now, like, I’m on a hit show, Emmy nominated every year, making lots of money working with, like, Steve Carell and Jenna Fisher and John Krasinski and these amazing writers and incredible directors like Paul Feig,” he said.

“I’m on one of the great TV shows. People love it. I wasn’t enjoying it. I was thinking about, ‘Why am I not a movie star? Why am I not the next Jack Black or the next Will Ferrell? How come I can’t have a movie career? Why don’t I have this development deal,’” Wilson said. 

He also mentioned how success bred dissatisfaction and the desire to earn more and more. 

“When I was on ‘The Office,’ I was clutching and grasping at okay, I was making hundreds of thousands. I wanted millions, and I was a TV star, but I wanted to be a movie star. It was never enough. Humans have lived for hundreds of thousands of years, and never enough has helped us as a species,” Wilson continued.

The actor made headlines in March when he acknowledged that there was “anti-Christian bias” in the entertainment industry.

“I do think there is an anti-Christian bias in Hollywood. As soon as the David character in ‘The Last of Us’ started reading from the Bible I knew that he was going to be a horrific villain,” Wilson shared on Twitter. “Could there be a Bible-reading preacher on a show who is actually loving and kind?”
