@m.exclusive.us: Collin Gosselin is revealing more details about his troubled childhood, claiming that medical records could support his allegations against his mother, former reality TV star Kate Gosselin. The 22-year-old, who appeared on Jon & Kate Plus 8, discussed his experiences during an interview with Jay Shetty on the On Purpose podcast while promoting his new memoir, In the Shadow of Eight: Surviving the Reality of My Childhood. Collin alleges that his mother physically and verbally Ab\*sed him and sometimes restrained him in a locked room in the family’s unfinished basement. He described the space as having concrete floors and cinder block walls, claiming it was used to silence him and prevent him from telling others what was happening. But now, Collin says he has something he believes supports his account. During the interview, he presented notes that he said came from a registered nurse at Fairmount, the facility where he was admitted shortly before his 12th birthday. According to Collin, the notes included a statement attributed to Kate about having a room where she locked him in. He questioned the suggestion that a psychiatrist had approved such an arrangement. Kate has previously disputed her son’s allegations. In a 2024 statement, she described him as struggling with serious behavioral and mental health challenges and defended the decision to place him in treatment. The claims remain disputed, and the document’s contents have not been independently verified in the provided report. Through his memoir, Collin says he wants to share the parts of his childhood that audiences never saw on television. Behind a family’s public image, there can be painful experiences that only emerge years later. \#CollinGosselin #KateGosselin #JonAndKatePlus8 #RealityTV #celebritynews
