Kate Gosselin’s estranged son Colin is publicly calling for her about her rumoured new boyfriend.
Colin – one of Kate’s sextoo pets she shares with her ex-husband John Gosselin – joined his Instagram story on Thursday, September 25th, inviting his mother to take a polygraph test with him for rumors that she was dating a former bodyguard in his family.
“This is my formal invitation to do a lie detector test with my mother,” he wrote. “Then, I see who lies straight to the general public… I’m very serious, by the way.”
Collin’s post comes a day after he previously called on Kate to report on her date Neild.

In a lengthy statement that shared several Instagram stories, Colin launched a gust of allegations against his mother, defending his father about how he was treated in the past.
“What really confuses me is that my mother had something to do with our bodyguard in 2009 and would share a hotel room with him for years while we were out on family vacations while we were in connected rooms!” he insisted. “Now everyone thinks that she’s with him is a cute novel romance.”

“By the way, my father was threatened with death and shunned by the public for many years because he had ‘events’ and ‘leaving the child’,” Colin continued. “I hope she doesn’t try to play this. Just go forward and it’s true.”
Colin said he “is not a big deal in the drama” and “very busy” and didn’t want his followers to think “about this.”

“But I feel very strongly about the issue of fraud and then I blame someone else for your own actions,” he explained. “Everyone says my dad and I are hanging up the phone. We’re not. We suffered from the damage caused by the narcissist and we cried together.”
Kate did not immediately respond to people’s requests for comment.

Colin added that he and John “do not reform if we still feel pain from the past” and that they didn’t add a broken heart emoji before saying, “I love your dad.”
He also aimed at Kate’s claims during the Tiktok Q&A on Monday, September 22nd that she was dating her new and yet unknown boyfriend “a little over a year.”
“You were with him,” Colin insisted. “You told me you broke our family when you couldn’t stay true to my father. I’m not here to shame you. But you don’t understand the fact that Dad and I cried together from all the wounds. I spent my time quietly.”

John also shared his reaction to the rumoured relationship. “Give me who really ruined the marriage,” he wrote in an Instagram post on Wednesday, September 24th along with a screenshot of an article linking Kate and Need. “Perhaps people will hear now when I speak!!”
At the time of the allegation, Kate denied being romantic with Nild, calling the report “disgusting”, “unthinkable” and “immeasurable.” Kate also described her as “terrifying” by gossip. Married in 1999, John divorced in 2009, the same year as the illicit rumors.
When she revealed she was currently dating, Kate shared during the Q&A that she was “very happy” in her new relationship.
And although she had not revealed the identity of the new man in her life at the time, she confirmed that she was “a person I’ve known for so long” and repeated that she was “very, very happy.”

Kate also said that her man “really don’t want to be in Tiktok,” and that she “can’t blame him” for that, but her followers teased on her social media that “probably sometimes he moves forward with his voyeurism.”
Kate and John rose to fame on the reality TV show John & Kate Plus 8. This documented his life with now 24-year-old twins Cara and Maddie and Sextuppet Aden, Alexis, Colin, Hannah, Joel and Lear.
