Kate Gosselin's Lawyer Defends Her Amid Abuse Allegations

In a recent interview with Fox News Digital, former reality star Jon Gosselin expressed his concerns about actor Alec Baldwin considering featuring his family on television. This comes in light of allegations made by Jon's estranged son, Collin Gosselin, against his mother, Kate Gosselin. Collin has bravely opened up about the distressing experiences he endured during his childhood, stating that his mother allegedly placed him in a “room multiple times,” where he claims he was zip-tied, locked in, and monitored by cameras.

Collin's allegations have brought a spotlight to the complexities of family life in the public eye. Richard Puelo, Kate's attorney, commented on these serious claims, stating that his client will not be making any public remarks about them. "She never wants to comment because she always knows that this gets taken out of context," Puleo shared with Fox News Digital. "She doesn't want to comment. Doesn’t need to. The record speaks for itself."

Collin has stated that despite the painful past, he doesn’t believe that Kate intentionally harmed her children. "The facts belie the truth," he remarked. "Whatever took place, the ones that are truthful are the ones that took place… She has no comment because it's not going to change the past," he added. He expressed heartfelt gratitude towards his father for supporting him through his struggles and helping him escape the alleged abuse.

In an emotional Instagram post, Collin stated, "It has taken me a long time to find the strength needed to speak about my mother's abuse. I have finally found my voice, and I hope to be the voice for children everywhere facing abuse. It is never OK. Your story can be told, just like mine." He passionately wants to bring awareness to the support systems that failed him during his childhood.

Jon Gosselin also shared his support for Collin and highlighted the importance of shedding light on such experiences. "I wish to bring attention to the system that failed me as a child, and hopefully, in turn, it will help others," Collin wrote. He opened up about his struggles within the family dynamic, stating,
