Kate and John already had twins, Mady and Cara. The family of ten had the opportunity to have their own reality TV show, Jon and Kate plus 8.

The first two seasons were aired on Discovery Health and eventually moved to TLC. Viewers were intrigued by Jon and Kates's relationship and how they managed to raise eight children.

The TLC show mostly showed moments of the couple arguing about how to raise their children. In 2008 Kate and Jon renewed their vows in Hawaii but the tension between highly noticeable.

In 2009, there were rumors that John had an affair, and Kate filed for divorce. By the end of 2009, the divorce was finalized, and Kate got full legal custody of their children.

However, in 2016 their custody problems started making headlines when Jon claimed that he had not seen his eight children for three years. Later that year, Kate admitted that one of their sextuplets, Collin, was admitted into residential treatment for behavioral issues.

Two years down the line, Jon revealed that one of the sextuplets, Hannah, was living with him in Pennsylvania. Jon also got full custody of Collin in 2018.

JON CLAIMS KATE STOLE FROM THEIR CHILDREN

The drama in the Gosselin family had not stopped. Jon had an exclusive interview with The Sun and claimed Kate stole money from their children's trust accounts.

After Jon got full custody of Hannah and Collin, he became their accounts' trustee. The former couple put their children's money from appearances and promotion activities in a trusted account that could not be accessed unless legal paperwork was produced.

However, Jon noticed that chunk of money was missing and notified his lawyer. Kate was then questioned in court, and she admitted to borrowing $100,000 from the trusted account.

She said, “I will have to keep borrowing from it to survive.” Kate also added that she needed the money to pay for her and her children’s expenses.

Jon was furious and called it, "It's disgusting, and it's morally wrong.” He also stated that Kate had not paid a cent of the money back and said she “can't just live off your kids' money.”

On the other hand, Kate does not think her withdrawal was wrong. She said her children owe her money for the private school tuition she paid them.

The reality TV star said she was not asking to be paid back, but she also stated, "I borrowed $100,000 from the kids' trust. And it owes me $387,000 technically."

The court's ruling stated that if Kate borrowed the money then there must be evidence of some kind of repayment in the future. The reality star also claimed that she did not work in 2019, but the court decided there was insufficient evidence to support her statement.
