Nothing can TradeEdgebreak a sister’s bond.
Indeed, Hannah Gosselin and Leah Gosselin proved as much earlier this week when the sextuplet sisters—who are among Jon Gosselin and Kate Gosselin’s sextuplets along with brothers Collin Gosselin, Aaden Gosselin, and Joel Gosselin and sister Alexis Gosselin—reunited for a day together.
“Update vlog,” Hannah, 20, explained in a recent Snapchat vlog alongside Leah, also 20. “I have arrived and we are eating—”
To which Leah chimes in, “Cava!”
And Hannah concludes, “You don’t understand how much I’ve been wanting Cava.”
Later, Hannah details the sisters’ trip to the fast casual restaurant, with Leah adding in a clip after they ate, “We destroyed those bowls.”
The Jon & Kate Plus 8 stars—who are also younger sisters to 24-year-old twin sisters Madelyn Gosselin and Cara Gosselin—also shared a glimpse of the day spent together at the mall including exploring stores like Bath & Body Works, Sephora, Victoria’s Secret. Afterward, they topped off the excursion with a trip to get ice cream.
Hannah’s update with her sister comes a little over a year after her brother Collin spoke out about the alleged abuse he faced at his mom’s house, which led to him and Hannah moving in with their father in 2018, when they were both 14. (In 2016, Kate placed Collin in Fairmont Behavioral Health Institute, where he stayed for two years while his father “didn’t know for sure” where he was, he told Entertainment Tonight).
For Collin, the experience led to his estrangement from most of his siblings.
“I think my mom kind of drove a social barrier between us,” Collin explained in a 2023 Vice documentary. “She told them the story one way, and, obviously, I see the story a different way.”
But Hannah stood by Collin, sharing her own perspective on Kate’s behavior toward her brother.
“He would not get to come and play outside with us,” Hannah recalled in the documentary. “He would eat dinner at different times than us."
Kate, meanwhile, has pushed back on the allegations made by her Collin and Hannah, including in the documentary.
“My son Collin, whom I love with all my heart, has received multiple psychiatric diagnoses over the years,” she wrote in an Instagram post in 2023. “For the safety of myself, his brothers and sisters and for his own well-being, he was placed in a facility following years of outpatient treatment which proved insufficient for his needs.”
Amid the family’s estrangement, Collin continues to hope for reconciliation between he and his siblings.
“I love my siblings very, very much,” Collin told Entertainment Tonight in August. “I would never hurt them. I would never trash their names in the media. But what I do believe is that my mother’s behind things they say in the media. She’s behind their opinion of me. I think if we knew each other today, we’d be very good friends.”

On Mother's Day 2024, two days after the former couple's sextuplets turned 20, Kate shared a tribute the four who lived with her: Alexis, Aaden, Joel and Leah.
"No more teenagers in this house! Happy 20th birthday, my forever babies! I love you!" she wrote on Instagram. "Who feels old? I know I do! #20yearsold #ItsaPICKLE."
Hannah shared new pics of herself on her and the other sextuplet's 20th birthday May 10.
On to the next chapter! The sextuplet graduated from high school in 2023.
Jon shared a pic of sextuplets Collin and Hannah graduating from high school in 2023, years after they had moved in with him.
Kate appears with twin Mady and Cara in New York City in 2019.
"Happy 18th birthday!" Jon wrote on Instagram in 2022. "Today is your birthday we gonna say it loud. I love you. Love, Dad."
"Our big celebration of #15 is finally winding down here! We celebrated ALL DAY LONG, beginning with a present at 6:30 am before school! I'm so very thankful for my ‘babies'.... somehow they are 15 already?!" Kate wrote on the special milestone in 2019. "I'm amazed by them each day! I'm so proud of the positive qualities I've seen developing as they edge closer to adulthood."
"This was yesterday! Feels like school never ended...and they're already back! #SeniorYear #EighthGrade #ProudMom," Kate wrote on Instagram in 2018.
"Happy 15th Birthday Hannah, Collin, Alexis, Aaden, Joel and Leah!!!! Wow I can't believe you are 15!!! Time is flying by!!!" Jon Gosselin shared on Instagram when posing with Hannah and Collin Gosselin. "I love you all very much. I wish you the best day ever and I hope you enjoy your birthday celebrations today and this weekend!!! Love always, Dad."
"My beautiful 'little girls' .... they keep reminding me how many days until they turn 14. Today it was '12 days til we turn 14, Mom.' HOW'S THAT EVEN POSSIBLE?!" Kate shared with her followers in 2018. "I told Leah that she's too small to turn 14. She said 'Yeah, true. Are you sure I'm not turning 11 or 12?' I'm positive. I gave birth to you. They'll always be my babies....I love them so very much!"
"I can't believe they're 13!" Kate Gosselin wrote on Instagram when celebrating a major birthday for her sextuplets.
Rewind to 2014 when Kate and her children found themselves visiting Alaska.
Kate also treated her twin daughters Cara Gosselin and Mady Gosselin to a trip to New York City in 2014, where they stopped by the Manhattan Hotel.
"A precious Christmas memory. My 6 were 6. Christmas Eve 2010 and they're SO excited for Christmas!" Kate Gosselin wrote on Instagram with a throwback photo. "Look at those adorable smiles! #TheyAreMyHeart #My8ReasonsToKeepOnKeepingOn #NoMatterWhat #TrueLoveX8."
Back in October 2007, Jon and Kate Gosselin gathered their eight kids together for a trip to New York City. First stop? A visit to NBC's Today show.
