Collin Gosselin is opening up about his complicated family dynamics ahead of his tell-all memoir.

“I think [my sister] Hannah [Gosselin] is very sentimental and reminiscent, in a way, and I think she wants to still have a piece of that family,” Gosselin, 22, said in an interview first conducted over a year ago, but re-shared on Saturday, June 27, via YouTube ahead of Collin’s book. “And I even look back at it like this — during my parents’ divorce Hannah was always so much closer with my dad. But now that I look at it I don’t think that it was that she was closer with my dad, I think she just wanted both parents in her life. And it makes a lot of sense and that literally is normal — that’s a normal thing kids want that.”

Collin and Hannah, also 22, are two of Kate Gosselin and ex-husband Jon Gosselin’s eight children, made famous by their reality TV series Jon & Kate Plus 8. The former couple also share twins Mady and Cara, both 25, and the remaining sextuplets Alexis, Leah, Joel and Aiden, all 22.

The pair finalized their divorce in December 2009 after 10 years of marriage. Jon eventually took custody of Hannah and Collin, while Kate retained custody of the pair’s remaining six children.

Collin Gosselin‘s relationship with his seven siblings has been strained since he moved in with their father, Jon Gosselin, in late 2018. “I have not spoken with my siblings in probably five or six years now,” Collin told Entertainment Tonight in November 2022, adding that the estrangement has been “tough” for him to navigate. “I […]

From Collin’s point of view, before Hannah went to live with their father she wanted to be “closer” to him. After living with him, he believes she shifted her focus back to her mom.

“Now that she’s with my dad and she knows that my dad loves her and he’s never gonna leave her or throw her out on a limb or anything like that, I think she wants to now fix that relationship with my mom,” he alleged. “What hurts me on that is that Hannah wants to fix the relationship with my mom — Hannah wants to get into the emotional and the feelings part of it because she cares about people.”

He continued, “For my mom, it’s going on social media. It’s going on TikTok and saying, ‘Oh, hi, just talked to Hannah today. … So for Hannah it’s a relationship, and for my mom it’s a PR stunt and that’s what really hurts me.”

Us Weekly has reached out to Kate for comment on her son’s claims.

Collin’s come as he promotes his upcoming tell-all memoir, detailing life as a child under the harsh spotlight of reality TV and his family’s ongoing estrangement. Us exclusively revealed the cover of the book, In the Shadow of Eight: Surviving the Reality of My Childhood, earlier this month.

Kate and Jon Gosselin’s son Collin Gosselin is opening up about where he stands with his estranged siblings. “Unfortunately, it’s just not something that is easy for me to talk about,” Collin, 21, said in the Wednesday, August 20, TikTok live video, per People. “As you can see, I don’t post on Instagram, I don’t […]

“This book is about truth, survival, resilience and finding my voice after years of being silenced,” Collin told Us. “If my story helps even one person feel less alone or gives them the courage to tell their own, then every difficult page was worth writing.”

As for where he stands with Hannah as she continues to mend her relationship with her mother, Collins says he’ll always be in his sibling’s corner.

“I love my sister and I’ll always be there for her,” he said. “I even texted her the other day and I said — it was about recent events — I said, ‘I know you don’t want to talk about these things and we’re not going to.’ I just said, ‘I love you and I’m always going to be there for you.’”

He added, “I just want her to know that her relationship with my mom and our siblings is never going to determine our relationship, and I’m never going to have hard feelings for her because of that. … I’m never going to tell her how to feel — I’m always there for her despite her relationship with my mom.”

The stars left little to the imagination while attending the 2026 BET Awards, proving once again that the naked dress trend is here to stay.

Lizzo stepped out on Sunday, June 28, in a bronze glittery gown with a sheer skirt that highlighted her recent weight loss.

“I’ve been methodical, losing weight very slowly,” the “Truth Hurts” rap star told The New York Times in April 2024. “I don’t really see it because if anyone who’s on a natural weight-loss journey knows, losing weight is actually the slowest thing in the world and you don’t really notice it until you notice it. Also, the scale’s not really moving. But anyway, that doesn’t matter. I’m super proud of my current lifestyle.”

Lizzo was far from the only star to don a sheer gown at the BET Awards. Scroll below to see their best looks:

T-Pain shared an unreleased collaboration with Oliver Tree in honor of the musician just two weeks after his shocking death.

The rapper, real name Faheem Rashad Najm, was performing with Shaquille O’Neal, aka DJ Diesel, at the Electric Forest festival in Michigan in the late hours of Saturday, June 27, when he unveiled the new track, per social media footage.

Fan clips captured the emotional moment when T-Pain, 41, rolled out a video montage of clips of the late Tree as the track played.

The song’s public release came two weeks after Tree died in a mid-air helicopter collision over Brazil’s Rio de Janeiro. He was 32 years old.

Singer-songwriter Oliver Tree has reportedly died. He was 32. Two helicopters crashed into one another in southwest Rio de Janeiro on the morning of Sunday, June 14, according to a same-day report from CNN Brazil. According to the outlet, Tree was one of six fatalities from the reported crash. Further details about the reported collision […]

In T-Pain’s video montage, Tree was seen performing, riding a scooter down multiple hills and goofing around with friends. As the throwback videos played, T-Pain held his hand in the air before asking the crowd to wave their arms from side to side in unison.

T-Pain and Tree were known to be close friends, with the former often hosting the latter on his “Nappy Boy Radio Podcast.”

News of Tree’s death circulated online after CNN Brazil reported on the fatal helicopter incident that occurred on June 14. The outlet stated at the time that two helicopters had crashed into one another, resulting in the death of six people including Tree. There were no survivors.

The musician and artist had been traveling in Brazil as part of his world tour at the time. After performing in São Paulo on June 6, Tree was scheduled to take to the stage in Lisbon, Portugal on July 1.

A spokesperson for Rio de Janeiro’s State Civil Police Press Office told USA Today in the collision’s aftermath that an investigation was being conducted to determine the “causes of the aircraft crash.”

Once a forensic examination that was conducted at the scene is finalized, the Aeronautical Accidents Investigation and Prevention Center will release its report. The outlet added that preliminary reports indicated that the falling helicopters crashed “into the parking lot of an electric car dealership, igniting a fire that consumed at least 20 vehicles.”

Tree’s team revealed via an Instagram post on Sunday, June 21, that his body had been recovered and transferred to California. The post, shared via Tree’s official account, also announced that he will be honored via a forthcoming foundation. “His legacy will live on through his foundation/endowment named ‘Dr. Oliver Tree’s Extremely Epic Grant For Baby Geniuses’ coming soon,” the post stated. “This is something that Oliver had put together before his passing, written in his will. We will make sure his wish comes to fruition so that more joy, love and art can be spread into the world, that was his final wish.”

T-Pain shared his own tribute to Tree via Instagram in the wake of his friend’s death. “Thanks for sharing your art and for always being different in the best way possible. See you on the brighter side,” T-Pain wrote hours after the news broke.

Courtney Stodden is accusing television personality Dr. Drew Pinsky of exploitation when she says he forced her to undergo an exam of her breasts on live television when she was a minor.

“Dr. Drew had me on his show when I was 16 and had me undergo an ultrasound to see if my breasts were real or if I was lying about my breasts,” Stodden, now 31, alleged in a post shared via Instagram on Saturday, June 27. “I wasn’t an underage girl. I was a minor trapped in a situation that I wasn’t able to get out of legally. I had no rights at the time. The money he paid me to be on the show went straight to my abuser.”

At the time, a then-16-year-old Stodden was married to then-51-year-old actor Doug Hutchison. Stodden eventually filed for divorce from the actor in 2018 and the former couple finalized the split in 2020.

“Obviously there is a problem in America,” Stodden told Fox News Digital in an October 2025 interview of her experience as a teen bride. “We think of child marriage as something that’s, like, overseas or foreign, but really America’s dirty little secret is the loophole in the judicial system for, in my opinion, pedophiles to marry children.”

Courtney Stodden is opening up about a life-changing plastic surgery procedure. “Introducing the new girls 🤍,” Stodden, 31, captioned a Thursday, June 11, mirror selfie in which she showed off the results of her breast reduction in a lacy black lingerie set. “I got huge implants when I was barely 18. Today, at 31, I […]

She added at the time, “And the scariest part of this whole thing is that I’m not alone. There are so many people that reach out to me to tell me their horror stories of being a child bride.”

In her Saturday upload, Stodden shared screenshots of her 2011 interview on Dr. Drew’s daytime show Dr. Drew’s Lifechangers. During the episode, the then-minor was instructed to lie on stage in front of a studio audience while Dr. Drew performed a breast ultrasound to check for breast implants.

“These photos bring up a lot of sadness for me because I see a little girl being exploited by grown men and used for views and mockery,” she continued in the poignant caption. “Dr. Drew, what made you think this was a good idea? As a doctor, did you think this was actually healthy for a little girl to experience? Did you even care?”

Stodden also tagged Dr. Drew in the post, who has not publicly addressed Stodden’s claims at the time of publication. Us Weekly has reached out to representatives for the TV personality for comment but did not hear back.

Stodden — who has often detailed her on-again, off-again 35-year age-gap marriage to Hutchison and has since claimed she was groomed by the actor — has become an advocate against child marriage — a practice that continues in the United States. Currently, 33 states allow a child under the age of 18 to get married, while 17 states have banned the practice.

“Realizing everything that has happened to me in present time has been a lot to process,” she told Fox News Digital during the same 2025 interview. “When I first hit the spotlight as a young girl, my brain wasn’t developed yet. And I had a certain image of what my life was. I thought I knew everything. I mean, what kid doesn’t at 16. Then as things started to escalate quite quickly — and my role seemed to shift in the marriage quite quickly — I became the breadwinner.”

Stodden famously revealed that she received negative comments and attacks for her age-gap marriage, including leaked DMs from Chrissy Teigen in which the model encouraged the then-16-year-old Stodden to die by suicide.

“Not a lot of people are lucky enough to be held accountable for all their past bulls*** in front of the entire world,” Teigen, 40, wrote in a since-deleted post shared via X, apologizing for her previous comments. “I’m mortified and sad at who I used to be. I was an insecure, attention seeking troll. I am ashamed and completely embarrassed at my behavior but that is nothing compared to how I made Courtney feel.”

In 2025, Stodden revealed she had contemplated suicide as a result of the online hate she received.

Soccer player Lucas Trejo was a devoted father and husband before his beloved wife and two young children were killed in the devastating Venezuela earthquakes.

The athlete’s family had been reported missing after their apartment building collapsed during the two earthquakes that hit the area in June 2026. (At the time of publication, NBC reported that more than 1,000 people have died as a result of the earthquakes.)

Days later, Lucas’ team, Club Sport Marítimo La Guaira, confirmed the family’s death while paying tribute to his wife and two children.

“For the eternal rest of Yanina de Trejo (wife), Aaron Trejo (son) and Ainhoa Trejo (daughter) of our player Lucas Trejo,” the caption read via Instagram, translated to English. “The big family of the Maritime Sport Club of La Guaira offers their condolences for the death of their relatives, which occurred last June 24th during the earthquake that shook the whole country.”

The statement continued, “Directors, coaches, players, administrative, operational and administrative staff of the club we ask God for the eternal rest of the family of Lucas Trejo. We also continue to pray for the rescue of other victims of this catastrophe in La Guaira.”

Lucas Trejo Honored His Family After Their Deaths

Lucas paid tribute to his family via his Instagram Story in June 2026, sharing a photo of him with his hand on his wife’s knee as the couple sat beside their children and smiled for the camera.

Influencer Lillian Droniak — known as Grandma Droniak to her 15 million TikTok followers — claimed that she was asked to leave her retirement community.

“I’m getting kicked out of the nursing home,” Droniak, 96, alleged in a recent TikTok video, holding up a letter she apparently received from the facility. “It says, ‘You’re getting kicked out if you don’t stop the parties.’”

Droniak, who has enjoyed hosting ragers in her apartment, explained that she was told “parties are not allowed” on the premises. The rules also allegedly state that she is forbidden from serving alcohol to other residents.

“‘This letter serves as a formal warning,’” Droniak read aloud, shortly before ripping up the paperwork. “I pay $12,000 a month to live here. I could party if I want. My girlfriends are coming over today, and we’re gonna drink and gossip. It’s not a party, but we do get rowdy.”

She continued, “I can’t help it, I love to party. You can’t stop me.”

Droniak had been served the initial notice following alleged noise complaints from her fellow residents.

“We are reaching out because there have been many noise complaints about your room. Parties are not allowed and you cannot serve alcohol to other residents,” the letter read, which Droniak held up to the camera in her footage. “This is a safety concern.”

The letter continued, “While we encourage residents to socialize and enjoy community activities, we cannot have wild parties. It is shown on security footage that people were leaving your room at 1 a.m. last Tuesday. Continued incidents of this nature may result in restrictions on visitors and common area privileges, and could lead to further review of your residency status within the community. We kindly ask for your cooperation in ensuring future gatherings remain respectful of community rules and quiet hours. No more parties please.”

Aside from her back-to-back BET appearances and other glam nights out, Janet is a proud mom of son Eissa.

“The most important thing I’ve done, the biggest thing I’ve done, is become a mother, and it’s had a beautiful impact on my life,” she told The Guardian in 2024 of motherhood. “I wanted to have three children, but thought, ‘I should stop there, that’s probably all I can handle.’ Because you have to give all of yourself. Obviously, you have to work, but you don’t come first anymore. Your life completely changes. And I wouldn’t trade it for anything.”

Bachelor in Paradise star Raven Gates is reacting to a comment about her finances.

“This isn’t reality for most to be able to do who live paycheck to paycheck and have debt. Tips,” one user wrote in an Instagram Story Q&A on Saturday, June 27, seemingly referring to Gates’ income bracket.

“Going back to this topic for a second. I totally get that because that was ME!” Gates, 34, replied in an Instagram Story post. “I don’t want anyone to feel as though I am trying to make anyone feel less than. That was my story, too. But you don’t see that part, but I’m trying to show a bit more of the place I was in over 10 years ago & how I got out of it.”

Gates explained that she doesn’t feel like “people remember how broke, how in debt, how bad of credit, etc [she] had.”

“The high school I graduated from had free and reduced lunches for the whole school because of our poverty level. I can go into more but there’s so much to the story including a lot of chance and luck (ECCLESIASTES 9:11) but also a lot of grinding, failing and discipline,” she wrote. “I do believe there’s always a way for things to be better and if we lose sight of that, that’s when we can’t take the next steps, whatever that may look like.”

She continued, “I knew this topic would bring a lot of emotions from people so I’m not sure I should have even shared but I am trying to be more open and also sensitive to others. But all in all to encourage and say I KNOW how it feels & I believe in you and that your situation can get better.”

Gates also shared details about her income with husband Adam Gottschalk in a post that she has since appeared to have deleted but was reviewed by Us Weekly.

America’s Sweethearts: Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders star Dayton Bramhall’s journey to dance for the iconic NFL team is officially over.

Life has changed completely,” Dayton, 28, said on the Friday, June 26, episode of the “Baddie Besties” podcast. “I think when I said I was done auditioning, I really meant I was done.”

I did what I needed to do. I worked my butt off all year. In between the last time I was in training camp [and] the last time I auditioned for finals, I worked so hard and that’s all I could do.”

According to Dayton, she simply wanted to try “as much as [she] could” and her best.

“I gave it my all and it didn’t work,” she acknowledged. “So, I’ll use my abilities somewhere else, and that’s what I’ve been doing and it’s been great.”
