He accused Kate of being in a relationship with her bodyguard, Steve Neild, since 2009, alleging that she cheated on his father with Neild. He also claimed that she went as far as sharing hotel rooms with her former bodyguard when they went on family vacations. 

The TV personality’s son urged his mother to come out and say the truth instead of trying to play it off. He also noted that the public shouldn’t support his mother for being in a new relationship when his father was the one who was criticized for having an affair.

In Collin’s rant, he noted that he wasn’t trying to expose his mother as a way of thriving off the drama. On the contrary, he insisted that he only came out to say the truth because he doesn’t condone cheating.

“I’m not big on the drama, and I’m very busy in college, at work, and running my business, so don’t think I feed on this. However, I feel very strongly on the matter of cheating and then blaming someone else for your own actions,” he wrote, per The Blast.

The young business owner said that he wasn’t trying to “shame” his mother, but simply wanted her to take accountability.
