Just weeks after her husband was accused of cheating on her with a 23-year-old schoolteacher, Kate Gosselin is now under the scrutiny of tabloids for having an alleged affair of her own, MSN TV News reports.  
  
According to the May 15 issue of *People* magazine, Gosselin, whose reality show takes an intimate look at her and her husband trying to raise their twins and sextuplets, has formed a close relationship with Steve Neild, the family's bodyguard.  
  
"The next story coming out from the animals that stalk us is about our security person and his family," Gosselin says in the exclusive interview. "Already the allegations they're making about me are disgusting, unthinkable, unfathomable, and I am horrified."  
  
Gosselin explained that because she and Neild work so closely together, it is natural for their families to become good friends. With their rumored affair making headlines however, Gosselin is worried that she will be left friendless. The fact that her marriage with Jon is struggling does not help matters.  
  
"\[The tabloid attention\] leaves us essentially alone and friendless," she says. "It's a matter of 'when will they stop?'"
