“Might be an unpopular opinion but after everything I am truly happy that you & Steve get to be together,” one fan wrote in the comments section on Instagram. Another added, “You look so happy and in love!!”
Gosselin and Neild went public with their relationship in November 2025, when the former “Jon & Kate Plus 8” star posted a series of photos of things and people she’s “obsessed” with — one of which included her boyfriend, who also happens to be the family’s former bodyguard.

At the time, rumors began swirling that Kate was having an affair with the bodyguard, which she denied.
