It's been quite a few years since Jon and Kate Gosselin first introduced TV viewers to their large brood on Jon & Kate Plus 8. The series followed the young couple as they raised their twins, Mady and Cara, and sextuplets, Leah, Alexis, Hannah, Aaden, Collin, and Joel. The show ultimately ran for 11 seasons, updated as Kate Plus 8 following their contentious divorce in 2009, and wrapped up in 2017.
