Kate Gosselin has long been rumored to be banging her “bodyguard” Steve Neild. The rumors have been persistently following them ever since the Gosselin’s marriage imploded publicly, as Steve travels with Kate almost everywhere. Kate also spent last Thanksgiving with Steve… and his wife. And earlier this summer, there was a funny story about how Steve “encouraged” Kate to get her boobs done. Like he had a strong opinion about it.
Anyway, I’ve always believed that they were hitting it. And now the veil is gradually being lifted. Us Weekly has an interesting story in this week’s issue about Kate and Steve – according to their sources, “during a recent family vacation to Bald Head Island in North Carolina, witnesses say that the two strolled on the beach each night.” One witness says: “They looked at each other like they were an item.” Sources also say that Steve is very close to the kids, and that he texts the kids every night and that he’s more of a “family member.”
CB also pointed me to this eyewitness account published at The Huffington Post a few weeks ago, and it’s about this same vacation to Bald Head Island. The account is very lengthy and detailed, and you can read it here. The relevant part is this:
Wednesday finally brought an off-camera beach outing. Kate had swapped the modest two-piece she’d had on for filming for a nude-colored sparkly string bikini. The only other adult present, a middle-aged, athletic man with a full head of gray hair, sat very close to her. “Steve, Steve!” the kids called as he splashed them from a bucket of water. I later identified him as Steve Neild, a longtime bodyguard and travel companion who is married and was rumored to have served as Kate’s boob job consultant last year.
I took a couple pictures with my phone and ended up catching Steve’s attention. He jogged over to my beach chair and asked in a stern British accent, “Would you mind not taking pictures of the children?” I didn’t point out I was more interested in snapping him and Kate touching legs. I agreed, and firmly, protectively, he said, “Erase those, now.” I knew he had no legal basis, but allowed him to bully me because I had already saved the halfway decent ones and I did not want to become his enemy with several days left in the week. In exchange, Steve asked if I would like a picture with Kate. It seemed like a routine offer meant to disarm citizen paparazzi.
“Sure,” I said, and we strolled over to Kate, who was staring into space, apparently unaware of the exchange. “I’m a big fan of the show,” I told her. I have never seen an episode of the show, but it seemed like the least sinister motivation to offer. Steve asked Kate to pose.
“Come now, get up!” he said.
“In a bikini?” she whined. Her skin was a deep orange, her long nails perfectly French manicured. She wore dangly silver earrings and multiple necklaces. She pulled on a long white cover-up, ignoring Steve’s repeated assurances that she looked “fantastic” in her bikini.
“One condition,” she told me. “You can’t post this on Facebook or anything. We’re anonymous here and we’d like to stay that way.”
I nodded, wondering how she equated anonymity with bringing a large crew to film her family vacation. Kate struck a red-carpet pose, hand on hip, facing into the wind (“My hair blows back this way,” she explained), and we awkwardly embraced as Steve fumbled with my iPhone.

Ooh, their legs were touching. Totally boning. I would love to know what his wife thinks.

I think she looks better with short hair…
Those poor little kids. I hope that there is a stable adult in that pack of looney tunes looking out for them on some basic level….
Why does she need a bodyguard again?
He’d better make nice with his b*lls while he still has them, because once she is finished with him, he won’t have any.
I just noticed in the top picture, her hand is on top of his on the car door. Looks a little friendly to me.
Yup. The casually touching hands tell more than any of us want to know about these nasty, low-rent grifters.
Agree…shorter hair better.
Maybe if she got laid more often, she wouldn’t be such a raging bitch. I think lack of consistent orgasms are the cause of most female ills/bitchery. So I say you go girl!
They must be boning – why else would someone put up with her as an employer? But either way, yuck.
Yep, from the hand pic I could totally see Steve ‘n Kate doin it doggy style.
Why would any man want to touch this trash? There is nothing attractive about her.
California Surfer:
“Yep, from the hand pic I could totally see Steve ‘n Kate doin it doggy style”
Wouldnt you? Can you imagine this ugly mug staring at you while you are doing the nasty? It is probably the only way he keeps from vomiting.
Heinous people and shame on those who helped make them famous.
Maybe his “wife” knows.
Maybe it’s to keep people out of Kate’s business. You never know what the hell is really going on in Hollywood land…
Who’s she again?
I’ve seen (real, not self-proclaimed) A-listers on the subway, in theaters, on the beach, or shopping, no bodyguard in sight, ever.
So what’s it with her?
I’m surprised no one has commented about how Kate lets her bodyguard boss her around.
““Come now, get up!” he said. ”
That sounds like they are hitting it just because of the liberty she gives him to say that to her. Has anyone heard of a bodyguard giving orders to a “star”? I’m wondering if Kate is paying the wife off.
juicy! he obviously dominates her. she needs that. but he really needs to end his marriage if he’s in love with her.
I miss the old hair surprisingly.
It’s hard to say anything positive about Kate, but the shorter ‘do does look better on her.
OMG, the pink lee press on nails. egads.
She is just disgusting. The self importance just rolls off of her in waves. Not one drop of humility. I hope his wife pulls some Lorena Bobbitt out on their asses.
God just when I was about to forget this bitch and her nasty ex husband… What is her nasty ex husband up to anyways? I bet he is brokedy broke. Anyway, the body guard looks like a skinny Jay Leno. She looks like Cruella DeVille. If she doesn’t scare you no evil thing will. To see her is to take a sudden chhhhiiiilllll. Ok, I will stop now.
this nasty bitch has ruined the name “kate” for all of us kates. boo.
Boob job consultant. Perfect description. I think they’re hitting it too, maybe his wife has her own boyfriend so she doesn’t mind him living with Kate & co.
….and she has a bodyguard WHY?
I always figured she pays Steve a huge amount of money for “Salary” so his wife keeps her mouth shut cuz she likes the $$$$!
I also think she definately looks better with short hair but those pink nails in the top picture are fake and gross.
TOTALLY believe that she’s banging the bodyguard. On an episode years ago (I’m ashamed to admit I used to watch J&K) Kate even said she stole her ex-hubby Jon from his girlfriend and that’s how they had first started dating in the first place and then she LAUGHED about the girl getting dumped.
As soon as I heard the boob job story, I said to myself they’re knockin’ boots for sure. Disgusting. No my bad…the first time I heard she had a bodyguard at all was when I thought she has an “arrangement” with him.
She is just one of those women that look prematurely old! Even when she just turned 30 she looked so much older
Question to all you men who work for women: What would happen to you if you suggested your boss got bigger titays? I don’t know if this is close but maybe it would be like me asking my boss if he had tried Viagra. Anywho….with the wife being silent, she surely is being paid off. It would take a whole hell of a lot of money to shut me up — a WHOLE lot. And I would still be spending the rest of my days trying to destroy Kate somehow behind the scenes.
I don’t know why they are pretending they aren’t together. They are clearly together. There is no wife or anything. We are not amused.
And remember Kate got Jon to cheat on his then girlfriend/fiance. She’s got the MO. There is no way this is a platonic bodyguard thing. I think he separated from the wife some time ago and she’s being paid somehow to stay silent then the crap will hit the fan.
good god people read into things a lot, id have a security person too, there are some freak people out there, and from what i understand he’s been security for some pretty impressive people
People draw from things what they want. If she feels she needs security and she’s footing the bill, then what’s the issue. If they are ‘seen’ as an item. That’s not a bad thing as it allows the impression of having a bodyguard.
