‘Bringing Up Bates‘: Katie Bates Shares Heartwarming Moment With Family
Katie recently took to IG to share a sweet video with her family. The clip shows Katie and Travis taking their kids to a park. She wrote, “Just one of those nights that makes you grateful for where you are… 🌙🩵.”
Katie’s post comes after her emotional message on IG, sharing how God is the only one she relies on amid all the heartbreak she’s going through. According to Katie, she wished that some parts of this year had looked different, adding that she would change certain things in a heartbeat, but she couldn’t. Several members of the Bates family left supportive comments on Katie’s post, such as Zach, Lawson, Michaela, Josie, and Carlin.
This led to some Bringing Up Bates fans speculating that they may be part of the ten percent who are still in touch with her. But Kelly Jo shocked many people with her late comment, saying, “Wise words! God is always able to comfort 🙏 John 16:33 “These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.” ❤️” Regardless, Katie’s latest appearance shows that she’s far from living her life the way she used to.
Katie’s Skimpy Bikini, Modesty Gone?
Some Bringing Up Bates fans on social media discussed Katie’s latest IG Stories, featuring photos from her latest vacation with Travis. According to the poster, it’s clear to see that Katie has completely stepped away from their dress codes. She can be seen wearing a bikini, showing off her revealing underwear. While many fans say it’s good for Katie, others hope that she will still consider her future with Travis.
- “Good for her but it’s crazy to see how much she has changed in just a few months. She went from being one of the most conservative from her sisters to now being the first to post herself in a string bikini.”
- “Good for you girl but please don’t change who you are to keep Travis around.”
- “She 100% wanted to be like that from the start. All of them did, but they grew up in the IBLP and couldn’t. Now that 90% of the family members have sadly abandoned her, she’s like “fuck it“ and really doesn’t really have to care.”
- “I think this may be push back on her family. Kinda like Jill Duggar’s nose piercing.”
