Introduced to cameras at just 2-years-old, sextuplet “Jon & Kate Plus 8” Collin Gosselin has ambitions that go beyond the obvious.
“I’m looking at the Marine Corps. I’ve always wanted to be a Marine. So I think that’s the next step…I have a lot of dreams, a lot of goals – I mean number,” he told Entertainment Tonight. He hopes to enter in the spring of next year.
Life is now a constant cycle of school, work, and friends for Gosselin, he says, after being sent to a Behavioral Health Institute by his mother, Kate. His father, Jon, removed Gosselin from the institution and got custody of him in 2018.

In addition to discussing the nature of his relationship with his mother Kate Gosselin, Collin Gosselin opened up about his future plans as a young adult.
