Kate Gosselin responded on Monday to TikTok comments about a request from her estranged son Collin for her to take a lie-detector test. nypost.com reported that the 51-year-old replied she could not pursue legal action because she is a public figure. Gosselin wrote in one comment, “I can’t bc I’m a public figure.
Rules are different unfortunately. ” In another reply she stated that malice is difficult to prove in court and that she had consulted a high-power Los Angeles attorney years earlier. The attorney told her courts do not honor defamation claims for people in the public eye, according to the comments.
The exchange occurred in the comments section of a video about her rescue-dog journey. nypost.com reported that Gosselin did not mention Collin in the video itself. Collin Gosselin, 22, made the lie-detector request during a 2025 interview with The US Sun.
He announced his memoir “In the Shadow of Eight: Surviving the Reality of My Childhood” last week, with a scheduled release in October. Collin has lived with Jon Gosselin since 2018 and remains estranged from siblings Aaden, Joel, Alexis, Leah, Madelyn, and Cara while maintaining contact with sister Hannah.
