Kate Gosselin Shares The 'Lasting Effects' Of Having Sextuplets On Her Body—And We Can Only Imagine
Jon & Kate Plus 8 featured Gosselin, her then-husband Jon, their twin daughters (Mady and Cara, now 25), and their sextuplets (Hannah, Leah, Alexis, Joel, Aaden, and Collin, now 21).
Since the show aired, Jon and Kate have divorced due to allegations of Jon's infidelity, and Hannah and Collin have become estranged from the family, with Collin alleging that his mother was angry much of the time and took her aggression out on him.
Now on TikTok, the dialysis nurse and mom of eight is sharing her journey through infertility, unique pregnancy experiences, and giving birth to multiples.
Gosselin originally intended for the series to be three parts, then six, and eventually concluded in nine parts. You can find her full TikTok playlist of the nine parts here.
You can see Part 1 of the series here:
Part 1 of the series focuses primarily on Gosselin's experience with infertility. After trying to get pregnant for about six months, she was able to pursue intrauterine insemination (IUI). The process did not work the first time, but after the second try, Gosselin gave birth to twin daughters, Mady and Cara, who went home four days later.
In Part 2, she explains that she and Jon decided to try for their next child, knowing that multiples were possible but never expecting sextuplets. But her hormone levels were incredibly high, and her ovaries were hyper-stimulated by the experience, making it easier for multiple pregnancies to happen.
Then she recounted the "now iconic ultrasound appointment," in which she saw all of the circles representing her future children on the screen for the very first time. It was such a lasting memory for her that she could remember all the little details about the room, what everyone was wearing, and what it smelled like.
Then Gosselin started detailing the many side-effects of being pregnant with six.
Her stomach was pressed up so high to make room for the babies that her stomach was compressed into about a one-inch line stretching across her stomach.
Her bladder, on the other hand, was pressed flat and low, making it difficult to hold or process anything. Since the birth of her children, her bladder's never been "the same."
There were also issues with acid reflux. While many pregnant mothers deal with this, she'd frequently wake up in the middle of the night with acid "flying out" of her mouth, all over the bed and floor, making her choke to the point that she struggled to breathe.
To get calories into her, her doctor even encouraged:
"Most people can't eat a candy bar for breakfast... but you can!"
Part 3 details the birth of the sextuplets, and while it might seem like there wouldn't be that much of a change between birthing one baby and more than one, that might not quite apply to six.
Part 4 covers how Gosselin almost had seven babies, but one was not viable, while Part 5 recaps the family's journey home from Hershey, Pennsylvania, to Reading.
Part 6 details Gosselin's experience with juggling all eight of her children and not feeling like enough, while the remaining three parts dig more deeply into the struggles she experienced as a mom of eight, dealing with troubles in her marriage, and figuring out how to care for so many children mostly alone when many struggle with one or two.
Viewers grew to understand that there was more to the story than television programming would have them believe.

Everyone parents in their own way, and most people have opinions about how other people parent, but it's hard to imagine how you'd care for eight children, especially with six of them arriving at the same time, without going through it yourself.

Video Of Kamala Warning Trump About Putin's Agenda Goes Viral After Russian Drones Enter Polish Airspace
Vice President Harris had no such issue, and emphasized the importance of Ukraine driving Russia back across their border in her answer.
She stated:
"Otherwise, [Russian President Vladimir] Putin would be sitting in [the Ukrainian capital of] Kyiv with his eyes on the rest of Europe."
"Starting with Poland."
Addressing Trump, she added:
"And why don’t you tell the 800,000 Polish Americans right here in Pennsylvania how quickly you would give up for the sake of favor and what you think is a friendship with what is known to be a dictator who would eat you for lunch?"
You can see the moment here:
One year later, early Wednesday morning, 19 Russian military drones entered Polish airspace. Four were shot down with the help of Poland's NATO allies.
Russia, of course, denied the scale and deliberate nature of the incursion.
Polish Foreign Minister Radosław Sikorski countered that there were no doubts about the incursion being intentional and called it an unprecedented attack on NATO and the European Union.
Minister Sikorski stated:
"In this case there were 19 breaches, and it simply defies imagination that it could be accidental."
"This is a threat not only to Poland, this new technology of the mass use of drones is a threat to all of the E.U. and nature, and we need to face it together."
As a result, Harris' 2024 warning of Putin's intentions to push as far as NATO, the EU, and the United States allows him to went viral across social media.
It was shared on Facebook with the caption:
"Kamala Harris warned that this would happen under Trump — destabilization, a weakened NATO, and a green light for Putin. Look around — it’s happening."
People noted how prescient—and presidential—Harris was.

Fears that Putin could turn his sights on areas of Europe once under Soviet control—especially the Baltic states of Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia—have been present since Russia first illegally annexed Crimea in 2014.
Those rumblings grew more prevalent after Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine on February 24, 2022.
The Russian incursion into Polish airspace is proof those fears—and Vice President Harris' warning—were warranted.
87-Year-Old Foils Watch Thieves
He gave a fair warning:
"You have an attitude? I'll give you an attitude. I was raised on the street."
Here’s what happened: the couple was minding their own business last week and heading to their local senior center at Gramercy Park when a stranger appeared, spinning the least convincing tourist excuse ever heard.
Ever so friendly, Cuccia tried to help:
“I'm from Dubai,' he said, 'I need directions. Could you give me directions?' I said, 'Welcome to New York. What directions do you need?' He said, 'Where could I go to find a Walmart?'”
New Yorkers everywhere collectively rolled their eyes—because if you’re looking for Walmart in Manhattan, you’re already lost. Joanna humored him, followed him to a car, and before she knew it, Larry was being pawed by the man’s female accomplice, who kissed his hands like a bad soap opera seductress.
Her move? A blatant bait-and-switch. She slipped a diamond-encrusted fake Rolex onto his wrist, hoping to make off with his real $48,000 watch.
Unfortunately for her, Schwartz isn’t your average retiree. The former Air Force paratrooper and amateur boxer has decades of muscle memory and wasn’t in the mood to play along.
He quipped:
"She thinks she's got a sucker, and she hands me this piece of sh** and I'm looking at it, and that's when a bell went off, I'm saying, 'This is a con.’”
Ding ding ding—Larry had just clocked the scam faster than she could fake a smile.
What followed was less “gentle senior citizen” and more “Rocky Balboa joins AARP.” Schwartz yanked her arm, twisted it “pretty good,” and kept both watches. She fell back into the getaway car while Larry walked away with his battered Rolex and a shiny counterfeit souvenir.
Schwartz humblebragged:
“She's got to have one hell of a sore arm… I also boxed amateur. I have 44 amateur fights, and so I'm not the average person, I know that.”
Looks like I’m calling my trainer tomorrow—because if Larry’s throwing punches at 87, I clearly need to step up my game.

Police say they’re still hunting the suspects, described as a woman in her 30s and a man in his 40s. Surveillance footage showed them fleeing the scene, likely rethinking their life choices.
The internet, meanwhile, crowned Larry their new crime-fighting hero:

Luxury watch theft isn’t just a quirky subplot in Larry and Joanna’s lives—it’s become a growing headache for New Yorkers. NYPD reports show burglaries and grand larcenies targeting high-end jewelry and watches have spiked in recent years, with organized crews often staging “bump-and-switch” cons just like this one.
Seniors are especially vulnerable because scammers often use fake friendliness—asking for directions, offering hugs, or pretending to need help—to get close enough to grab. It’s the kind of street act New Yorkers are all too familiar with, but in this case, the thieves chose the wrong person to target.
In the meantime, sweet Joanna Cuccia admitted the ordeal left her reluctant to help strangers again:
“It's unfortunate because I love New York, all my life I've helped tourists, but I won't do it again. I'm not as young as I was, and I'm not going to take that chance anymore, and it's a shame.”
Don’t worry, Joanna—New Yorkers everywhere are already saying what we’re all thinking: if you mess with Larry Schwartz, may God help your wrist.
Anna Wintour Reveals Her Honest Reaction To Seeing 'The Devil Wears Prada'—And It's Kind Of Iconic
Weisberger, a former Vogue employee, has confirmed in the past that The Devil Wears Prada is based on her and her former colleagues' experiences, though she has never confirmed whether Priestley is a direct portrayal of Wintour.
But pretty much everyone who's ever read the book or seen the movie has taken the hint, including, it seems, Wintour herself.
During a recent video on the New Yorker Radio Hour podcast, Wintour all but confirmed the rumor—and the portrayal's accuracy.
Host David Remnick asked Wintour about the film and its portrayal, in which Anne Hathaway's character Andi Sachs is put through an often cruel and terrifying wringer by Priestley, played by Streep.
Wintour's take?
"In the end, I thought it was a fair shot."
She went on to tell Remnick that she didn't know much about the film when it first came out.
“Well, I went to the premiere—wearing Prada—completely having no idea what the film was going to be about."
"And I think that the fashion industry were very sweetly concerned for me about the film that it was gonna paint me in some kind of difficult light.”
She also worried that Streep's portrayal of the character based on her would be a "caricature."
Instead, she left the film impressed by everyone's performances—and actually had a good time.
"I found it highly enjoyable and very funny. It had a lot of humor to it, it had a lot of wit.”
Perhaps Wintour doesn't take herself quite as seriously as people think!
On social media, many found Wintour's self-awareness refreshing, even if they weren't buying everything she said.

If nothing else, Wintour inspired what is arguably Streep's most beloved and iconic performance, and that alone is a high honor!
Powerful Line From Sotomayor's Scathing Dissent After ICE Ruling Ignites Standing Ovation On 'Colbert'
But the Trump administration appealed, and the conservative-led Supreme Court—which includes three Trump-appointed justices— took up the case last month through its emergency “shadow docket.”
Sotomayor’s dissent cited multiple examples this year of Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents in Los Angeles using physical force to detain people they suspected of being in the country illegally — often based on their workplace, appearance, or language.
She warned that the Court’s ruling effectively sanctioned such tactics, writing that it declared “all Latinos, U.S. citizens or not, who work low-wage jobs are fair game to be seized at any time, taken away from work, and held until they provide proof of their legal status to the agents’ satisfaction.”
You can watch her moment on Colbert in the video below.
Colbert noted that if agents with ICE are "just looking for cases with reasonable suspicion, which is a much lower bar than probable cause, they could make up new rationales for a different group of people who they feel are associated with some crime that has to be prevented."
Sotomayor responded:
"In fairness to the majority, and by the way, I didn't agree with them ... they claimed there was more than those two factors, being Latino and speaking Spanish. I don't think the third adds much to the equation but they do. They say it's because they are working in low-wage jobs." ...
"That's what they said and they're working at jobs where illegal aliens typically work. Now, I explain—and read my dissent—"
Colbert said, "I will," and read:
"That decision of the majority is another grave misuse of our emergency docket."
“We should not have to live in a country where the government can seize anyone who looks Latino, speaks Spanish and appears to work in a low-wage job. Rather than stand idly by while our Constitutional freedoms are lost, I dissent.”
The crowd cheered and gave Sotomayor a standing ovation in response.
People were moved and shared their thoughts.

Justices Elena Kagan and Ketanji Brown Jackson joined in Sotomayor’s dissent.
Sotomayor also appeared for an interview with CBS Mornings, and stressed that the people of the U.S. have the power to invoke change.
She said:
"I don't think whether I'm concerned matters. I think what matters is whether people are concerned. I am a Supreme Court Justice. I get to decide individual cases."
"I get to speak my mind about them. In the end, I don't change what exists. People change what they don't like or they support what they do like. The power of change is in people."
She declined to go into further specifics because the case is pending but said she "tried to be as clear as possible... explain to people as I think did in the opinion the reasons why I believe it's unconstitutional." She added that "many of my reasons are based solely on the precedents that have established what reasonable cause for police to stop individuals are."
