Divorce from Jon and Ongoing Custody Issues

On the same day as the episode of Jon & Kate Plus 8 aired that announced their separation, the former couple was actually with their attorneys finalizing their divorce. They came to the conclusion that all eight of their children would remain in their home and Jon and Kate would move back and forth, per the custody agreement. They both said the show would continue, however, on June 23, 2009, TLC announced that Jon & Kate Plus 8 was going in indefinite hiatus effective immediately.

Police arrived at the Gosselin's home in August 2009, after Jon and Kate got into a heated fight. Jon was at the home with the kids during his scheduled parental visitation time when Kate burst into the home angry because allegedly she didn't like the babysitter Jon had chosen. No charges were filed in this incident. Jon and Kate Gosselin's divorce was final on December 16, 2009. Kate was awarded the family home in Pennsylvania and primary custody of all eight children in the divorce.

In August 2016, Kate announced that she had put Collin, who reportedly has special needs, into an inpatient program. A year later, the police were called to a dental office when Jon and Kate got into an argument over Hannah about who would be taking her home from the dentist's office. No one was arrested, Hannah went home with Jon, and Kate was asked to visit the District Attorney's office to get a better understanding of the former couple's custody agreement.

A judge granted custody of Hannah to Jon in April 2018. Kate appealed this decision. The judge denied Kate's appeal. In late October 2018, Jon and his attorney filed papers to gain legal custody of Collin. Kate and her attorney failed to appear at a December 2018 custody hearing and Jon won custody of Collin as a result. Kate and her ex-husband only communicate through their lawyers. As of this writing, Kate is not attempting to win custody of Hannah and Collin back from her ex-husband. Collin and Hannah live with their father and his girlfriend of six years, Colleen Conrad. Additionally, Collin and Hannah are estranged from their siblings that live with Kate, and vice versa.

Post Divorce Career

After her divorce, Kate and her children were later featured in a series of specials called Kate Plus 8. The show was canceled during season five. Gosselin competed on the 10th season of Dancing With The Stars in the spring of 2010. She was paired up with professional dancer Tony Dovolani.
