Jon Gosselin Marries Stephanie Lebo in Pennsylvania Ceremony
Jon Gosselin has added one more to his family.
Nearly one year after the Jon & Kate Plus 8 alum, 47, proposed to Stephanie Lebo, 36, the pair tied the knot in an intimate ceremony Nov. 23.
“Before I met you, I never knew what it was like to be able to look at someone and smile for no reason,” Jon told his now-wife during the event, according to Entertainment Tonight. “I feel like the luckiest man in the world, because I get to grow old with my best friend and the love of my life.”
In addition to his bride, Jon’s kids Collin and Hannah, 21—who he shares with ex-wife Kate Gosselin—joined him on the couple’s big day. (Jon remains estranged from the former couple’s twins Mady and Cara, 25, as well as remaining sextuplets Alexis, Leah, Aaden, and Joel, 21.)
In 2009, Jon and Kate—who starred in the TLC series from 2007 to 2009—finalized their divorce after 10 years of marriage amid rumors of infidelity on Jon’s part, leading to years of public squabbling and a custody battle.
Since then, the Gosselin patriarch publicly dated Liz Jannetta from 2012 to 2014 and nurse practitioner Colleen Conrad for seven years until August 2021. Two years after the end of that relationship, Jon debuted his relationship with Stephanie.
Earlier this year, the reality TV star joined Stephanie during her bridal shower, where she celebrated by wearing a white dress and veil and posing in Jon’s arms. She captioned the September Instagram post of the event, “From Miss to Mrs!”
Weeks before, Stephanie enjoyed a beachside bachelorette weekend with friends in Atlantic City, N.J. and reminisced about her upcoming wedding day.

“I waited many years for this love,” she wrote on Instagram alongside pictures from the weekend. “And I can’t wait to marry my greatest best friend, and to be Mrs. Gosselin. Coming this November.”
Prior to their November 2024 engagement, Jon had been vocal about “without a doubt” proposing to Stephanie within a year since she was “the one.”
“I’m with my girl, she really supports me,” he told People in April 2024, while also noting her privacy. “But she doesn’t really want to be in the public eye so she doesn’t come to red carpet events and those kinds of things.”
As for if Jon and Stephanie—who is mom to a 14-year-old daughter from a previous relationship—plan to have more kids together?
“We’re both fixed so it’s not happening,” Jon continued. “I’m not getting a reversal. It was annoying enough to get it fixed so I’m not going to go down that road.”
He added, “We just want to enjoy life.”
