The family captivated the world when John and Kate Plus 8 premiered in 2207. Kate Gosselin and her husband, John Gosselin, were parents to twins Mady and Cara, born in 2000, and sextuplets Aaden Jonathan, Collin, Joel Kevin, Alexis, Hannah, and Leah, born in 2004. Their life was chaotic, and millions watched as the parents navigated life with eight very young kids. It’s hard to believe, but the sextuplets celebrated their 21st birthdays on May 10. Kate Gosselin posted photos on Instagram of four of the sextuplets sharing a drink, but two were noticeably absent. Kate smiled with Alexis, Aaden, Leah, and Joel. Hannah and Collin, who live with their father, did not partake in the celebration.
