In an exclusive interview with Entertainment Tonight, the teenager talked about the show’s eventual negative impact on her relationship with her mother. He also stated that it led to one instance where he sent her to a behavioral institution.
This caused a lot of conflict between the two and certainly hindered the parent-child relationship that was still strong at the time. however, he admits there was a bit of drama between the two of them before this incident.
“Even before this [being] there, I don’t think we had much of a relationship, and I think it just kept ruining it even more,” he admitted.
He also pointedly named “TV and what people do to families.”

In 2018, Collin moved in with his father and sister Hannah and hasn’t spoken to his mother since. He is not opposed to reconciliation though in fact, “It would be ideal,” he admits. “Unfortunately we are not in a relationship. I think every son wants to have a relationship with their mother.”

The high school student admitted that although he misses his mother and hopes for reconciliation one day, he is “doing well” regardless. He has no plans to “sit and mourn and cry”. He sees that his mother has her own life and lives it… without him.
“I came to the conclusion that everyone has their own agenda, you know?” She spoke. “My mother has her own agenda, and I don’t know what it is. But I was put in a difficult place, and my agenda is to overcome that difficult place.”
Kate didn’t show up to the custody hearing for Collin and she assumed it was because her mother had to deal with her own issues. “It’s on his own terms,” he said, assuring the audience that he was not “bothered” by his actions.
“If he doesn’t want to show up, he doesn’t have to show up.”

Back in May Jon opened up about his marriage to Kate and why he had little contact with his children when their marriage ended. “[Kate] separated me from the child. I think it was a bad parenting decision,” he told ET.
“[Communicating with] the kids who live with Kate are very difficult because I don’t have an open relationship with them,” says DJ now. He can obviously mend the relationship with Collin and Hannah but the other kids, only time will tell.
