Kate Gosselin Addresses Marriage Rumors After Fans Spot Sparkly Ring on Her Left Hand: ‘It’s Just My Everyday Jewelry’
Kate Gosselin Addresses Rumors of Secret Marriage
Kate Gosselin has responded to swirling speculation about her relationship status with boyfriend and former bodyguard, Steve Neild. The former reality star, 50, sparked curiosity after posting a TikTok video on January 7, featuring a ring on her left hand that some fans interpreted as a wedding ring.
One commenter exclaimed, “Ma’am that ring is gorgeous!! 👀👀,” while others echoed the sentiment, asking if Gosselin had secretly tied the knot. A user inquired directly, “Whooaaaa. Did you get married? I am so happy that you are happy. And how have you kept the weight off over your recovery?”
In her response, Gosselin clarified the situation, stating, “No lol that’s just my regular jewelry.” Her TikTok clip showcased a shopping outing on Waiheke Island in New Zealand, where she shared that Neild “treated me to a few items” before they headed to the beach. She noted with delight that he also purchased a T-shirt and a pair of shorts, expressing happiness that he rarely buys clothing for himself.
Amid addressing marriage rumors, Gosselin provided an update on her health. Last fall, she was hospitalized following a tibial plateau fracture caused by a collision with her dog, Meika, during a game of fetch. She shared, “I gained 15 pounds but hope now that I’m moving around it’ll go 😩.” Gosselin received medical clearance to walk again in December 2025.
Gosselin recounted the events leading to her injury, describing a seemingly ordinary day when she and Neild took the dogs for a walk. “Things went haywire when Neild threw the ball and Meika came running for it,” she recounted. “She was running at the absolute speed of light and I stepped the wrong way.”
Since their relationship became public in November 2025, coinciding with the wedding of her ex-husband, Jon Gosselin, new dynamics have emerged. Jon and Collin recently suggested on social media that Kate may have cheated on him, a claim she has vehemently denied since their split in 2009. The couple shares eight children, all of whom have shown interest in their mother’s new venture into a romantic relationship.
As Gosselin navigates both personal and public scrutiny, her reflections on wellness and love continue to draw attention.
