Kate Gosselin Cannot Legally Contact Her Child Collin, Jon Gosselin Says in Revealing Interview

Jon Gosselin is getting very candid about his family situation in a way he never has before.

If you don’t know, the former Jon & Kate Plus 8 star now has sole custody of two of his sextuplets that he shares with Kate Gosselin, Hannah and Collin.

“I’ve been going to court for 12 years, so it’s not an easy battle. I had shared custody, I lost some kids, I had joint legal, I lost legal, I got legal back. When Hannah was 12 years old she wanted to live with me, so then I had to go get legal again, and then I got shared custody. And then, all of a sudden now, I got primary of her,” Jon said in an interview on First Class Fatherhood, posted to YouTube on February 2.

“I got sole custody of Collin, Kate has a no contact with him, so there’s a whole bunch of stuff that happened with him,” Jon said about Kate not being able to contact him.

According to a law dictionary, a “no contact” order is “prohibits a person from being in physical or verbal contact with another person, whether that is face-to-face or over the phone/internet.” As for why a “no contact” is issued, it can be anything “from minor altercations between couples to serious, criminal charges of stalking.”

“So, I ended up with two, there could be more that come, so I have no idea. But, I mean, it’s a long battle…I just didn’t give up, I’m still not gonna give up,” Jon continued. “So, if they decide to go live with mom or they decide to live with dad, it’s up to them.”

He then added, “We do have a guardian ad litem, so it’s like having a third parent, if there is a dispute between mom and dad, they can always call the guardian ad litem and she is a representative of the court and the judge, so she can make a better decision if there’s a dispute between mom and dad.”

“Right now, it’s very tumultuous, pretty much, because there’s no contact between Collin and his other siblings. There’s contact between Hannah and the other siblings,” Jon added about if Hannah and Collin, who live together with Jon, have any contact with Leah, Alexis, Joel, Aaden, 15, and Maddy and Cara, 19.
