The news comes after her estranged son, Collin, recently addressed his lack of relationship with his mom

In 2018, Gosselin, 47, purchased the four-bedroom, five-bathroom waterfront home in the North Carolina town of Troutman for $750,000, records shows.

The move came shortly before she lost custody of her son, Collin, and later, Hannah.

Meanwhile, Collin noted that he didn’t let his mom’s absence from a 2018 court hearing, which resulted in Jon obtaining sole physical and legal custody, “bother” him.
