The 50-year-old, known for her role on “Jon & Kate Plus 8,” shared a TikTok video on Wednesday, capturing a moment from her trip to New Zealand. In the video, she is seen walking from her car to a coffee shop.

Gosselin had previously revealed that she suffered a “life-altering” leg fracture while playing with her dog, which required surgery last September. Her latest post marks an encouraging milestone in her rehabilitation process.

She said that was the first time she was able to walk without using crutches as she wrote in her caption: ‘And then … she could suddenly WALK again.’ 

Despite a noticeable limp in her left leg, Gosselin appeared in good spirits, smiling broadly as she made her way into the local café. Her progress is a testament to her determination and resilience in overcoming her injury.

In the clip, she appeared to have a slight limp in her left leg as she walked cautiously, but she bore a big smile on her face as she made her way into the local shop. 

At the beginning of the video, she layered text over a clip of herself walking into the shop and up to the counter.

Kate Gosselin shared a video of herself walking without assistance in public for the first time in almost four months since she badly injured her leg

She explained that she had been doing physical therapy at home to improve her mobility during the recovery process. 

‘I’ve been walking at home more and more and then BAM. I could suddenly walk everywhere!!!’ 

‘It’s amazing,’ she said to the camera at one point of the clip. ‘It, like, happened overnight.’ 

After placing her order and enjoying her treats with her travel companions, she started walking out of the cafe. 

‘So now I’ll just casually walk out of here,’ she narrated before exiting the shop. ‘I did it.’ 

At the end of the clip, she wrote in text on the screen that she ‘cannot believe this day has FINALLY come.’ 

Her last health update was in late December when she shared a video of herself walking on crutches on her way to the doctor’s office. 

It had been 82 days since she fractured her leg while she and her boyfriend Steve Neild were playing with her dog in September, she explained in the video.

The Jon & Kate Plus 8 alum previously shared how she suffered a ‘life-altering’ leg fracture injury while playing with her dog and had to undergo surgery last September

Last year she had to walk with crutches

She explained that her puppy Meika ‘ran into the side of my leg, my knee, at top speed.’ 

‘The only way I can describe it, it was like a concrete wall running at the speed of light,’ she added. ‘The pain was so bad I just crumbled on the ground.’ 

In the same video at the end of last year, she said she had to undergo surgery to put ‘plates and pins’ in her leg, and since then, she has been regularly going to physical therapy to get back on her feet. 

‘The surgeon said it was life-altering issues,’ she added.
