Collin Gosselin Shares Second-Ever Instagram Post & Gets Praise from Fans: 'Looking Good'
Collin Gosselin looked dashing in a recently posted Instagram photo. The reality star rarely shares pictures on social media, but when he does, fans don't pass on the opportunity to praise him in the comments section.
Collin Gosselin has been living in the spotlight since he was an infant. However, it wasn't until recently that he joined social media.
Fans were happy to see Collin's second post, as he rarely shares snaps of himself. In a series of pictures, the young man posed outdoors wearing a black leather jacket, jeans, and sunglasses.
The first photo showed Collin smiling by a fenced estate, while the second and third snap was of him and his silver converter.
The "Jon and Kate Plus 8" star kept his caption simple, only adding a smiley emoji with sunglasses and a camera. Nevertheless, fans swooned over his post and praised him for "looking good." Another comment read:
"You look happy and healthy."

Some fans may have watched Collin grow up in front of the camera as he and his family had their own reality show for years. However, his life changed when his parents separated in 2009, after a decade of being husband and wife.
Collin initially lived under his mom's roof, but his father, Jon Gosselin, stepped in after she took him to a facility for behavioral issues. Kate revealed his son was an inpatient seeking treatment at that time.
However, Collin Gosselin contacted his dad and wrote a letter asking for help. Eventually, Jon wanted to oversee his son's well-being and fought for Collin's custody.

When Kate missed a court appearance, the judge ruled in her ex-husband's favor. "Jon won sole physical and sole legal custody of Collin," a source revealed.
Collin had a strained relationship with his mom soon after and shared his experience during an exclusive interview. He said:
"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."
He believes his family issues stemmed from being on television for several years, and the effect tore them apart. While it did give them a source of income, being filmed all the time gave their family less time to be a family.
Collin had seven other siblings, including twins Madelyn and Cara. He was one of the sextuplets, along with Hannah, Alexis, Leah, Aaden, and Joel.
