Police Called On Jon And Kate Gosselin After Public Custody Dispute
Published on August 23, 2017.
Police in Wyomissing, Pennsylvania were called after a verbal custody dispute between former TLC stars Jon and Kate Gosselin on Tuesday afternoon at an orthodontist’s office.
Authorities responded to the call and arrived at the office around 1:10pm due to “verbal domestic dispute over child custody involving one minor (Female/13 years old),” according to PEOPLE.
Allegedly either Jon or Kate had taken one of their 13-year old daughters to an orthodontist appointment and a fight erupted over who would be taking her home. “The call came in at 1:10 this afternoon for a verbal domestic argument … over the custody of one of their 13-year-old daughters,” a Wyomissing Police Department spokesperson said. “No one was arrested and the daughter did go home with the father after she expressed that was her desire to do.”
The former Jon & Kate Plus 8 stars share eight children that they had over the course of their 10-year marriage but finalized their divorce in 2009. The children they share include twins Mady and Cara, both 16, and sextuplets Aaden, Alexis, Collin, Hannah, Leah and Joel, each 13.
It’s clear that the couple’s children are growing up and beginning to enter their teenage years, but Kate recently opened up in a Kate Plus 8 TLC promo saying that she will never stop worrying about her children. “Being in a family of eight kids and a single mom, worrying about their present, their future, how to feed them, their college, how they turn out, all of it — you never stop worrying,” she said.
