Gosselin met Kate Kreider at a company picnic on October 5, 1997. They married on June 12, 1999. On October 8, 2000, their twin daughters, Cara Nicole and Madelyn "Mady" Kate, were born. Initially, Gosselin was against having a third child, but he and Kate eventually decided they would try again.{{cite web|url=https://www.today.com/parents/dad-twins-sextuplets-counts-his-blessings-wbna25106856 |title=Dad of twins, sextuplets counts his blessings |first=Mike |last=Celizic |date=June 12, 2008 |website=Today.com}} On May 10, 2004, Kate gave birth to sextuplets: sons Aaden Jonathan, Collin Thomas, and Joel Kevin, and daughters Alexis Faith, Hannah Joy, and Leah Hope. The sextuplets were born 10 weeks premature, which is common in cases of multiple births.
Television fame
They received local media coverage until the sextuplets were 17 months old, when Discovery Health offered the couple a reality series chronicling the lives of their family.
The Discovery Health special, called Surviving Sextuplets and Twins, first aired in September 2005. One year later, the family was featured in another special titled Sextuplets and Twins: One Year Later. Both specials received high Nielsen ratings, and Discovery Health signed the couple to a series that aired beginning in April 2007. During this time, the family was filmed for three to four days per week, and received payment for appearing on the show.
They soon switched over to TLC.{{cite web |url=http://www.wgal.com/family/4463033/detail.html |title=Gosselin Sextuplets to Turn 1 |date=May 7, 2005 |publisher=WGAL.com |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070517093347/http://www.wgal.com/family/4463033/detail.html |archive-date=May 17, 2007 }}

On August 13, 2009, the police were called to the Gosselin family home in Wernersville, Pennsylvania, after Gosselin and Kate were engaged in a heated argument.

On October 15, 2009, it was announced that TLC had filed suit against Gosselin for allegedly violating their contract with paid and unpaid television appearances he had recently made on several media outlets. The network claimed it lost more than $30,000 as a result of his alleged breach of their contract. His attorney responded that the contract was null and void once TLC renamed the show Kate Plus 8, and that in any event the contract is unenforceable because it was signed while Gosselin had no legal representation.{{Citation needed|date=December 2015}}

It was reported that in April 2018, a judge awarded custody of Hannah to Gosselin. Kate would appeal this decision on May 4, 2018.
