She was just a baby when cameras started following her and her family around for Jon & Kate Plus 8.

Now Hannah Gosselin is opening up about the toll of being filmed nonstop in a new interview with Teen Vogue.

The now 21-year-old was a mere 15-months-old when her parents and seven other siblings found fame on the hit TLC show, which aired from 2007 to 2017.

But fame isn’t all it’s made out to be, as Hannah has often questioned the motives of those wishing to befriend her, and cameras caught her awkward teenage years, blemishes and all.

‘You’re always surrounded,’ she told the publication. ‘The film crew was there 24/7.’

The film crew even moved into an apartment located above the family’s garage.

This experience strengthened the bond between the siblings, who discovered they could prevent everything from being aired by mentioning brand names during conversations (though the film crew later asked them to stop).

The show has even been a helpful way for her to remember her childhood, as Hannah is able to watch clips of her siblings should she miss them. 

However, it was difficult seeing her parents, who ultimately divorced just before the show officially ended, fighting on TV.

‘[Filming] made my siblings and I closer to each other, even though it made my parents further from each other,’ she explained. 

‘It’s hard to go back and watch my parents argue,’ she added. 

Currently, Hannah is a young woman who enjoys offering peeks into her life on social media, featuring photos with friends and her numerous travels. 

She posted a lovely snap of her on a rooftop captioned ‘happy era’ last year, and she even has a boyfriend. 

But her family remains fractured. 

Kate, 50, and Jon’s twins Mady and Cara, 24, and their four 21-year-old sextuplets Alexis, Aaden, Joel and Leah, have been estranged from their father for over 10 years. 

Hannah and her brother Collin, 21, have lived with Jon since 2018 and are both now attending college. Hannah is at the University of Miami while Collin is studying at Penn State University. 

‘Mady and Cara live in Manhattan. They have their own careers, their own life. The other four… they go to four different colleges in North Carolina, so I guess they got in state tuition or whatever, because that’s where they live now,’ Jon told DailyMail.com earlier this year.

He went on to say his daughter Hannah ‘talks to them,’ and that he’s ‘praying that they come around or talk to me.’

He explained, ‘I’m not gonna pressure them, but they already know how I feel because Hannah told them.

‘I don’t have their phone numbers. I don’t have any of that stuff. I used to reach out to Cara on LinkedIn. I go to New York a lot, but I never heard a response.

‘But it’s interesting, like, the cell phone numbers that I do have, they must still be active because [text messages are] blue and I’m not green.’

The mom-of-eight was previously seeking $132,000 in alleged back child support and then lost the battle in November 2023 when a Pennsylvania judge ruled in Jon's favor; pictured 2009

As far as reaching out to his ex, Kate, he told DailyMail.com that he’s ‘not’ in contact with her, especially spending 14 years embroiled in a nasty custody battle.

‘I don’t plan on it either. Too much animosity,’ he insisted.

The DJ is now engaged to Stephanie Lebo, and the couple are set to tie the knot on November 23, 2025.
