John became Hannah and Colin’s primary carer in 2018; meanwhile, a developed rupture between him and their siblings.
“It would be nice for (Lebo) to meet my other kids,” John said ET on Tuesday. “I just support the children who are integrated into the family. If others wake up and find out what’s going on, the door here is always open.
For now, 37-year-old Lebo is at least getting to know some of the kids. “Hannah loves me and I love her,” she shared. “She’s been waiting so long.”
As for Colin, LeBeau revealed he sent her a “special message” after she accepted John’s marriage proposal last month.
“The sentence was I’m the solder,” Lebo explained. “That resonated very well with me. So he is very proud.”
Before he met Lebo, John was dating Colleen Conrad for seven years before the couple split in 2021. Shortly after that breakup, he met Lebo at a friend’s party and sparks flew. John, however, not made public for their love until August 2023.
In November he suggested to his girlfriend of three years in a private dining room at her favorite restaurant, Willoughby’s on Park in Wyomissing, Pennsylvania. She said yes as her parents witnessed the special moment.
“You don’t know how long I’ve waited for this day for you and there was a time when I thought it would never happen for you,” Lebo’s father whispered in her ear, ET they announced then. “I’m so happy for you and John.”
Gosselin revealed in July of this year that he was plans to offer of Lebo, sharing on the “Dom Nati Show” that he’s aiming to get down on one knee before Thanksgiving. During his appearance on the show, Gosselin said he and LeBeau intend to keep their wedding intimate, with plans for a larger reception later.
Although strained relationships with his children, John emphasized ET that everyone will be invited to the wedding.
“I don’t see why they wouldn’t get an invitation,” he said, noting that the invitation would likely go through his daughter, Hannah. “Whether they come or not will be up to them as they are now adults and can make their own adult decisions.”
