Jon & Kate Gosselin's Son Dedicates a Birthday Post to the Woman He Calls His 'Real Mom' — and It's Not Kate
June 22, 2026


Lyssa Chapman and her daughter, Madalynn, were a perfect mother-daughter duo as they showed off fun activities from their hiking expenditure.
Former bail bondswoman Lyssa Chapman and her mini-me Madalynn warmed many hearts on Instagram after Lyssa posted many delightful photos from their recent hiking adventure.
The images showed the pair enjoying their ethereal view and posing with the planes, rocky surroundings, dense greenery, and gushes of waterfalls. The first image presented Lyssa sitting on a rock, almost camouflaging with the hue around her.
The star mom smiled from afar, rocking a tank top, a face cap, and fitting pants as she sat crossed-legged while raising one hand. The next slide showed Madalynn rocking a grey T-shirt and mint green shirts.
She was photographed enjoying the moments and sharing a big smile with her gaze away from the camera. More of the pictures gave fans more peeks through their fun outing. Lyssa captioned:
"Waterfall Hike with the mini. #ThatsANiceBoulder…"
Last August, Lyssa celebrated Madalynn's 11th birthday most sweetly as she took to her Instagram page sharing photos of the birthday girl during an outing.
Lyssa reminded Madalynn of how much she loved her while noting that she was proud of her. The excited mom also showed intimate videos of her birthing experience eleven years ago.
An insider noted that the couple was looking forward to a long life together
At the time of Madalynn's birth, the delivery process was televised on the family's TV show, and Lyssa's late stepmom, Beth Chapman, was the perfect birthing coach.
The clips showed Lyssa in labor while her stepmom and sister, Cicely, flanked her and gave her the needed support. After giving birth, Lyssa's star dad, Duane "Dog" Chapman, was emotional as he carried his granddaughter.

Madalynn is one of two daughters born to Lyssa, her oldest is Abbie, and she also celebrated her 18th birthday in June. Dog shared a lovely photo of him and his finance, Francie Frane, posing with the birthday girl.
Before then, he and his daughter Lyssa were at loggerheads as she showed displeasure that he moved on fast following Beth's death. Lyssa was not happy with him and his then-girlfriend, Moon Angell.
These days, it seems that Lyssa and her dad are now on good terms, as she showed approval after he and his fiancée announced that they were getting married.
On her Instagram story, Lyssa officially welcomed Frane to her family while sharing a photo of her and Dog. An insider noted that the couple was looking forward to a long life together.
