Kate Gosselin recently opened up and claimed how she got out of a robbery safely.
According to her official account from TikTok on Saturday, January 17, the 50-year-old former TV personality revealed that she witnessed a robbery at a local supermarket in New Zealand.
In her video, Gosselin revealed that a man tried to steal a loaded “trolley” when a group of shoppers intervened.
She said: “You should see all the Kiwi guys running after him, trying to stop him. Everyone’s on the phone to the police. It’s a big problem here because honestly, guys, there’s not much crime here.”
“The guy ran past us and lost his shoe. He literally pushed past me and almost knocked me down because I couldn’t walk.”
“He almost knocked me down. He ran past me, and I’m just now starting to walk. I had an injury, so I can just walk now, and that got me up for a bit,” he said. Jon & Kate Plus8 alum shared.
Notably, this incident happened as Gosselin was on her way to recovering from a “life-changing” leg injury she suffered while playing with her dog named Meika in September 2025.
Just a few days before the robbery incident, she informed her fans on Wednesday, January 14 about walking without any support in New Zealand for the first time.
