Jon Gosselin paid tribute to his and Kate Gosselin's sextuplets on their 15th birthday, as he celebrated their special day with the two that live with him. He posted on his Instagram page on Friday a photo of him standing with Collin Gosselin and Hannah Gosselin outside his Pennsylvania home, writing, "Happy 15th Birthday Hannah, Collin, Alexis, Aaden, Joel and Leah!!!! Wow I can't believe you are 15!!! Time is flying by!!! 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." Last year, Jon was awarded temporary sole legal and physical custody of Collin, who had spent time away from his family at an out-of-state educational program for kids with special needs, and also said Hannah lives with him "permanently." Their sextuplet siblings live with their mother, Jon's ex-wife and former Jon & Kate Plus 8 co-star, and the former couple also shares 18-year-old twin daughters.<doc-sep>Jon Gosselin Wishes His Sextuplets a Happy 15th Birthday, Shares New Photos of Collin and Hannah The sextuplets are 15!

Ahead of their first day back at school, Kate shared a photo of her kids in their school uniforms standing on the steps outside of their house. “This was yesterday! Feels like school never ended…and they’re already back! #SeniorYear 😳😳 #EighthGrade #ProudMom ❤️” she captioned the smiling photo of Mady and Cara and Aaden, Alexis, Leah and Joel. Missing from the photo was son Collin, who was enrolled in a program away from home at the time to help him reach his full potential, and Hannah, who was with Jon. Kate also shared a second image of the sweet note she wrote to her two eldest daughters as they began their last year of high school. “Happy 1st day of senior year! I love you sooo much! I’m so P.R.O.U.D. of you! Love, Mommy,” the note reads. While each of her kids is beginning a different chapter, Kate is also entering a new season of life. This summer, TLC audiences will see Kate return to TV for a series documenting her love life, Kate Plus Date.<doc-sep>Jon and Kate Gosselin's sextuplets turned 15-years-old this week, but they didn't celebrate together. The teen kids of the divorced Jon and Plus 8 stars had two separate celebrations to mark their milestone day on May 10, as previously shared by The Inquisitr. And when the festivities were over, Jon shared a special message from his sextuplet daughter Hannah on his Instagram story. In the video, Hannah Gosselin poses with a friend as she thanks fans for a happy birthday. The reality TV personality is all smiles as she tells followers she appreciates all of the birthday wishes. Hannah also notes that her sextuplet brother, Collin, is asleep but that he appreciates everything, too. "Thank you. I had an amazing 15th birthday," a smiling Hannah Gosselin says in the video. On Friday, Jon Gosselin posted birthday photos with his kids Hannah and Collin, but he also wished a happy birthday to his other four sextuplets Alexis, Aaden, Joel, and Leah. It was clear from photos posted by both John and Kate Gosselin that the siblings did not spend their birthday together, although Jon hinted that the teens' birthday celebrations will go on all weekend long. Last month, Jon Gosselin told E! News that while Hannah and Collin live with him, the other four sextuplets weren't speaking to him. Jon is also estranged from his 18-year-old twin daughters, Mandy and Cara. "I kind of left it in their court now since it's been so long," Jon said of his estranged kids. "I mean, it is kind of heartbreaking and I do miss them, but everyone grows and matures and understands things... I tried really hard to develop something with them and only time will tell, I guess." It has been a tumultuous year for the divided Gosselin kids amid their famous parents' decade-long custody war. Last fall, Jon posted photos of Hannah as she started at a new public school apart from her siblings' private school. In December, Collin, who had been away at a boarding school for two years, also came home to live with Jon. The new birthday video comes one year after fans first got wind that Hannah Gosselin was living with her dad and apart from her mom and her six siblings. Last spring, Jon Gosselin went on a social media spree in which he posted photos and videos of multiple outings with Hannah, including stops for ice cream, Mexican food, and a morning trip to a bakery before heading to the bus stop on her 14th birthday last May. While the fractured family no longer appears on TV together, this summer, Kate Gosselin and her twins Mady and Cara return to TV for a spinoff show that will document Kate's dating life, Kate Plus Date.<doc-sep>
Jon Gosselin took time out to wish his children a happy birthday on Instagram on Friday with a sweet message. The 42-year-old reality star's sextuplets with his ex-wife, Kate -- Hannah, Collin, Alexis, Aaden, Joel and Leah -- turned 15 on May 10. The exes -- who rose to fame with their TLC show, Jon & Kate Plus 8 -- also share 18-year-old twins Cara and Mady. "Happy 15th Birthday Hannah, Collin, Alexis, Aaden, Joel and Leah!!!!" Gosselin wrote, alongside pics of him posing with Hannah and Collin. "Wow I can’t believe you are 15!!! Time is flying by!!! 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." Hannah lives with Gosselin, and he was granted temporary sole custody of Collin on Dec. 4, 2018. He told E! News that month that the other four sextuplets weren't speaking to him. ET spoke to the reality star turned DJ last December at a WE tv event, where he talked about also being estranged from his twin daughters. "I hope my relationship with Mady and Cara will get better but they're adults now, so that just kind of hinges on them and I kind of, you know, being estranged from them, I’ve kind of learned to live with it,” he said. "But it's really up to them to decide what they want to do with that." "I kind of left it in their court now since it's been so long," he continued. "I mean, it is kind of heartbreaking and I do miss them, but everyone grows and matures and understands things... I tried really hard to develop something with them and only time will tell, I guess." Gosselin also talked to ET about possibly remarrying when it comes to his girlfriend, Colleen Conrad, whom he's been dating since 2015.
