<p id=”par-2_40″>The controversial <em>Jon & Kate Plus 8 </em>star is interested in pursuing another show, according to a recent report. But reviving her reality TV career will likely be difficult in the wake of her <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/collin-gosselin-accuses-mom-kate-gosselin-abuse-finally-found-voice.html/”>son Collin Gosselin’s disturbing abuse allegations</a>. </p>

<p id=”par-3_63″>Kate and her <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/how-did-jon-and-kate-gosselin-meet.html/”>ex-husband, Jon Gosselin</a>, rose to fame thanks to their TLC reality show, which premiered in 2007. <em>Jon & Kate Plus 8 </em>followed the Pennsylvania parents and their eight kids — a set of twins and a set of sextuplets. After Kate and Jon divorced in 2009, the show rebranded as <em>Kate Plus 8. </em>It continued to air sporadically until 2017. </p>
<p id=”par-4_38″>In 2021, Kate moved to North Carolina with four of her children and resumed her career as a nurse. But with her reality TV heyday long behind her, Kate is struggling financially, an insider revealed to <a href=”https://www.intouchweekly.com/posts/kate-gosselin-is-still-trying-to-get-a-new-show-amid-money-woes/”>In Touch</a>. </p>
<p id=”par-5_49″>“She doesn’t date or socialize with friends. Even her nursing job that paid her a fraction of what she made on <em>Kate Plus 8</em> didn’t pan out,” the source said. “She’s hurting for money and facing the very real possibility of having to sell her house in North Carolina.”</p>

Collin Gosselin Is ‘Moving Forward’ After Shocking Abuse Allegations Against Mom Kate Gosselin, Dad Jon Gosselin Says </a>

<p id=”par-6_74″>Though Kate’s children are now grown up, she’s still hoping she could make a return to TV. However, various scandals make that unlikely. Most recently, her son Collin accused her of isolating him from his siblings, tying him up, and locking him in a basement confinement room as a child. Eventually, she had Collin institutionalized. His father eventually obtained custody of him and his sister Hannah. Collin no longer has contact with his mother. </p>
<p id=”par-7_50″>“[Kate] is still trying to get a new reality show, but doors aren’t opening for her, especially now that she’s been painted a lunatic mom who zip-tied and locked her son in the basement room,” In Touch’s source said. “No one would be surprised if she started begging for handouts.”</p>
<p id=”par-8_47″>Kate has attempted to revive her television career in the past. In 2019, she starred in the short-lived <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/kate-gosselin-returns-to-tv-with-dating-show-kate-plus-date.html/”>TLC show <em>Kate Plus Date</em></a><em>, </em>which followed her as she tried to find a new love with help from a professional matchmaker and her twins, Mady and Cara Gosselin.</p>
<p id=”par-9_31″>In 2023, Kate appeared in one episode of Fox’s <em>Special Forces: World’s Toughest Test</em>. She was eliminated in episode 1 after she was injured during a fall out of a helicopter. </p>
<p id=”par-10_28″>“I’m still so pissed. I’m so angry,” Kate told <a href=”https://people.com/tv/kate-gosselin-on-the-scary-injury-that-forced-her-special-force-exit/”>People</a> of her early exit from the show. “I was out, and it was done before it even started.”</p>
