Jon and Kate Gosselin of TLC’s Jon & Kate Plus 8 are rumored to be in marital trouble. Jon has been accused of cheating on Kate, with drunk college girls, even leaving with one after partying at a Pennsylvania bar. Jon has spoken out about the allegations.
I certainly don’t agree with people cheating on their spouse, but can you imagine the stress these two have, raising eight kids – twins and a set of sextuplets? Although, personally, I wouldn’t cheat – I’d just eat a bowl of ice cream to de-stress. And maybe a brownie. Might swing a bag of chips, too. That’s me though. But I digress…
Jon has spoken out and denies that anything inappropriate happened, at any time. All innocent, folks, all innocent.
Gosselin’s rep, on Jon’s behalf, said, “It is certainly hurtful for people to spread rumors and lies about us. It certainly makes me reluctant to live my life like the average person would. This has made it very clear that the simplest innocent gesture – such as taking a picture with a fan, can be taken out of context. As you can see on the show, I am not perfect, but I am a part of a loving family and couple.”
There you have it. Not true. Until the photos surface. Kidding.
Seriously, let’s hope it’s not true – I’m not a fan of the show, but have seen an episode here and there, and they seem like a normal couple (with a giant brood of kids!), who are trying to make their way in life and do the best they can for their family.
Plus, when would Jon have time to cheat? He and Kate have TWO new babies!

It was just announced by TLC the show has been picked up for a 5th year. I think it’s going to be a rough year for Jon, Kate will keep busy with speaking and book signings. I hope they’ve had some help during the shows hiatus and are atleast back looking each other in the eye. We can all hope that that children will support each other. Resilent is a good word to describe children. They have remarkable coping skills and the ability to love.
Seriously there kids are not rude!!!! They are typical 4 year old kids. As for Kate being bossy…U GO GIRL!!! If Jon didn’t like it then he wouldn’t be with her!! I love Jon and Kate plus 8 and it is one of the best shows out there.
i hate jon and kate their kids are sooooooo rude that if my kids were that rude i would give them away
To Fabiola:
We speak ENGLISH in America!!!!!!!!!!!!
To mark:
why are u such a douche?
We cant believe he is cheating on Kate. I mean seriously he has 2 twins and 6 tuplets. What more can a father ask for? there would be pics everywhere.
bye
oh my heck i cant believe all you people i have 8 kids now all grown marriage is hard and so are raising kids give them a break these are two very nice prople and one thing for sure they both are great parents.keep up the great work jon and kate
There’s NO WAY Jon cheated on Kate. IF he HAD… THERE WOULD BE PICTURES EVERYWHERE. Is she a pain sometimes? YEAH! EVERYONE IS, but he is a good man. He might get frustrated (Who wouldn’t?), but he won’t risk his family. I DON’T believe and won’t unless THEY admit it.
Cward, if you had Kate as a neighbor she would never talk to you. And Kate is nurturing? Sorry, I see a mean, angry mom. Someone asked about family secrets? And kids at school knowing things about them? There’s a real good reason no one would know that about 99.9% of the population: WE DON’T BROADCAST OUR PERSONAL LIVES ON TV. WE DON’T SHOW OUR 8 KIDS HITTING AND KICKING EACH OTHER. SURE THEY DO IT BUT WE ARE NOT PROUD OF IT OR FILM IT FOR THE POPULATION OF THE WORLD TO SEE. Simple rule: Keep your personal life personal.
OMG! For those of you women who think you are just like Kate to your husbands and family and need to be in order to keep some order, wait until your husband goes through a mid-life crisis. Even the nicest most respectfull of wives get cheated on. How tight are your blinders? Kate has alienated the whole family because she can’t get along with anyone. The kids said daddy went to visit his mom in the final season 4 episode not he went to see grandma. That is because Kate does not allow the kids to see her and grandma cut her losses so she doesn’t have to spend time around Kate. And for the one who wants to be her neighbor, don’t you read about how much her old neighbors hate hated her? You would be one of the little people and beneath her. She would not be sharing parenting secrets (hire a cook and a nanny) or lending you a cup of sugar. Open your eyes! She is a passable mother at best and a horrid wife!
It is so sad that two people do a show to let the “butt-in” public into their already busy life. If you people do not like Kate or the show, don’t watch! Work on your own life instead of imposing your opions onto others. If John didn’t like the way Kate is with him, he wouldn’t have had kids with her. We all make our own beds and have to lie in them. Get over yourselves.
Kate does not love Jon !!!! Kate LOVES the SHOW $$$$$$
(She thinks she’s the STAR)
If Jon spoke to Kate the way she speaks to him (she verbally abuses Jon, and puts him down in presence of her children) Kate is a BITCH !!!!!!
I hope that SHOW does not come back……TLC you should give to somebody that will APPRECIATE it !!!!
Wow Vicki. You (and others like you) excuse Kate’s behavior
with a simple “Yes, Kate ‘slaps Jon around’, but it is what I call ‘love pats’ and you can see the love in their eyes through it all.”
Come on! If Jon “slapped Kate around” like that, everyone would be up in arms and rightly so! If Jon spoke to Kate the way she speaks to him, everyone would be telling her to leave him (“What is the rule about receipts?!” or any other example of her belittling him and treating him like a child)! Rightfully so! No one deserves to be treated like that, and she should not be excused just because she’s a woman with 8 children!!
Try to see it for what it is: she’s verbally, emotionally, and physically abusive to Jon! You’d probably not hesitate to call it like it is if it were Jon talking to her like that, so don’t be afraid to label it now.
Jon is in an abusive relationship. Kate is the abuser. Like most abused people, he will probably continue to take it for a long time. We’d all like to see him grow a backbone, just like we’d like to see abused women grow one. But he probably won’t.
Kate needs help. Jon needs help. But most of all, those poor children need help.
Kate is a big bitch most of the time and I wouldn’t think that Jon would cheat on her but if he did then he’s a huge asshole! How could he do that to his own children! Sarah you are a slut,whore,and a skank! How could you do that even if you didn’t know who he was! I hope you go to hell! Dirty bitch! Kiss him then have sex with him in the bathroom! I hope he wore a condom! You could work as a stripper you know that! What are you going to do know have sex with an 80 year old man!
I just want to say i watch your show ever night it comes on. I am 19 and have a “step” son (my bf’s son) that is 6 and the way you handle all the kids is amazing. I love kate and how she stays so strong because i know with just one six year old he is a hand FULL!! Jon and Kate are 2 very great people and I know that the rumors are not true and that they will be fine. Do you see the way they look at each other? that is love people. I know cause thats how i look at my fiance. I give them props for being in the spot light and still having everything together.
I absolutely love Jon and Kate Plus 8 because I think it’s real. “Real” doesn’t always mean perfect or pretty…They don’t go on the show and try to have a separate’on screen family life’, how many of us would like to have our lives shown to millions of peope, open to critism, without being in our shoes? The fact is, nobody can relate unless they’ve been there. There are parts of the show I don’t totally agree with, or more specifically, things I wouldn’t say or do. I do think Kate has some control issues, but just as none of us would want people judging our situation, we shouldn’t judge hers. MY GOD, the woman has 8 kids under the age of 8, the stress level is just totally unknown for the majority. I HOPE she is taking monthly visits to the SPA, taking time for yourself is a crucial part to being a parent. ESPECIALLY when you have 8 kids, whether she has hired help or not. I think it is very common for woman to take that stress out on their husbands, it’s not right, but it happens a lot. I just think people who are quick to judge need to take a look at what’s lacking in their owns lives, and work on that before trying to take it out on a show on TLC for god’s sake.
Kate needs to stop saying things to the kids like “you are going to die or that is going to kill you”. I think it’s great jon and kate want to be adventurous and take the kids places but it defeats the purpose if her OCD’s interfere with them having fun. They will grow up and be afraid of everything.
why does it seem like the kids are always wearing something brand new? they could save a lot of money and time by wearing things a few times before washing and wearing things for a year or so before replacing. heck, my kids all wore hand me downs and it didn’t hurt them one bit.
The kids would not have “that’s mine” meltdowns if the parents would stop labeling everything with their names on it. Like when she left for the evening she had instructions for the babysitter and each bib had a piece of paper on top of it with each kids’s name and she said they had to have that bib. She does that with clothes too. If you don’t do that kind of stuff kids don’t get so territorial about what is theirs and as a bonus they learn to share.
I admire Kate for her parenting. I’m sure she loves Jon. The things that bother me is how she puts him down so much. Once when they were being interviewed she told him not to breath so loud. Another time she told him not to speak over her when she was talking. She does it to him all the time. She has a hard job; but so does Jon. I
pray they are able to work everything out.
I think I have seen every episode of this show by now, it is on a lot! I love the kids, and since my own boys are older it is fun to relive the magic of childhood, and to see them having so much fun. I think it is great to see the kids being able to go places and have fun as a family. The parents aren’t perfect but if you really watch this show you know they love the kids and wherever they go the kids are with them. Kate is a very involved mom, yeah, maybe too controling, but in her situation she probably would feel overwhelmed very quickly if she felt she didn’t have control of her family. I think as the kids get older she is getting better about her “issues” like them getting dirty. We all learn as we go with parenting. They are doing the best they know how for their kids, and that’s all we can ask of good parents. There are so many children even in America who aren’t well fed, well dressed, or even safe. Why not save all this passion for them.
As far as their marriage goes, no one has a perfect marriage, it evolves over time. Their relationship is their business, and no one else knows all the details. If you truly care about the family, pray that the Gosselins can weather whatever storms they are facing and become even stronger for their kids.
this is all a lie he went to help his mom cause she broke her foot and he went to a bare to habve some drinks but wasn’t being nasty he didntn cheart that pic wit him and another girl is a picture with him and a fan
I’m with you Ken!! Run Jon!!! You can run to my house….
I live in the hills!!! I would never roll my eyes at you,
I think you’ve done great raising your children and Yea,
Kate does have patience…for the children! But she really
needs to let up on Jon! If I yelled at my husband in crowds
like she has done to him…I’d never be taken out of the
house again! At least show him some respect!
On filming days, we have what is known (in the world of TV) as
God, get rid of this nauseating family once and for all
Hell, have you guys really taken a good look at Kate??!! I’d cheat too!!! In addition to her screeching and controlling bitchy ways, she brags about how she hates the outdoors and doesn’t do anything even remotely athletic. Her muscles probably have the consistency of melted butter right now…she’s constantly yawning (cover your pie-hole!!) or rolling her eyes. The back of her hair looks like it’s home to a nest of squirrels (that uni-bang thing in front is another story..) She’s looking old and worn out and tanned to death. But regardless, she is what she is: a cold, harping, low-class insensitive witch. My ears are still hurting from the coupon episode.
Jon, you have 25 acres of land now, take my advice: run for the hills and don’t look back
Bring out the violins for poor unappreciated Kate. I have to say when she’s out of town, Jon does quite well with the kids. Kate is sooo hard and done by. ~rolling my eyes~
I totally had sex with Jon in the bathroom of that bar.
love the show but i think that kate doesn’t realize that when she gets scared about little things (even walking on hotel floors) she changes who her kids are and how many new things they will want to try when they are on their own as adults. just don’t do something if you are scared but don’t yell and obsess about it.
I think they have a great show and I hope they do work out their problems for the kids and for theirselfs Don’t throw it all away you guys have alot going for you a nice home beautiful kids and they are smart maybe kate just has to give jon more time to do things with out yellin at him all the time . Maybe you need to talk to a marriage counciler don’t give up love your show
As much as I would love to say that this girl (Blonde volleyball player) did hook up with john since she is prob the biggest slut ever. And I am not very fond of her. I know for a fact that she didn’t. He just came by to play beer pong with college kids.Which might be wrong but no cheating went on.
i used to love watching jon & kate plus 8.. it made me somehow feel like it’s not really hard to raise 1 kid as compared to them. i give it up to kate on how she maintains the cleanliness and the organization in their house, and being able to feed all eight kids with healthy organic meals/foods though. the only draw back on the other hand, is how she treats jon like a kiddo. but anyways, for people talking about how greedy kate (and jon) had become with regards to the amount of money they get from tlc, i think she just knows how to save and spend the money wisely. their program is not set to be forever so they need to save up a lot for the eight kids’ college education not to mention how expensive it is to raise children. not too happy bout the aunt jodi issue though. nor the ‘jon’s night at the bar’ but the who knows, it was but a rumor. anyways, hannah is so cute.. she is like my daughter who likes to fold clothes, and help mommy with the chores.
Just because someone is estranged from their parents as Kate is does not make them a bad person. I’m estranged too because I got tired of my parents walking all over me but it doesn’t change who I am nor the people who love me or who I love. Sometimes parents and kids just cannot get along because they see things differently. If it did have to do with donations, it was wrong for them to start getting any donations without asking her first if it was ok and if so what she’d like!
i wish all the best for this family. i don’t understand why how they spend their money is anyones business? if u hate these people so much dont watch the show. let the fans enjoy it. there are plenty of us.
The eight Gosselin children are adorable, but how could a nurse (Kate) and a charming intelligent man (Jon) bow to fertility drugs? The world is so over-crowded and there are many children who need and deserve adoption. Jon & Kate were infinitely blessed the first time–to have TWINS: Why use the fertility drugs a SECOND time? This also applies to in-vitro fertilization: It’s almost like asking for trouble–by jeopardizing the health of the mother and the babies…and relying on a “reality” contract!
I LOVE THE SHOW! I own it, and watch it on tv all the time.
personally, i do not understand why people put jon or kate or the show down, especially since i can tell you watch it a lot. you know too many details about their life or the show to put it down. if you didn’t like the show or couldn’t stand jon and/or kate, why do you watch it?
the people who are negative towards these two and/or the show, need to get a life. they are living their lives the way they want. and personally, there is nothing wrong with the way they live. it doesn’t matter what they spend their money on or if they don’t have an amazing relationship with their own parents. it’s their life and they are living it. not you.
their kids are well-behaved and well-loved. there is so much love in that house. they even spend a day with one kid, and then take turns from there. they do so many activities with the kids.
like someone else commented above, you can’t say that you would love to live in their shoes, because honestly, you can’t, but yet, it is easy to say you would do that.
it’s their life, so stop being so negative about it. it doesn’t do any good. it is what the media wants from us. and the Gosselins don’t read any of this stuff because they do not care what you all think or say. and good for them.
so get a life and stop worrying about theirs.
I love watching Jon & Kate & I hope that the rumors are just that–rumors. The kids are having a great time and yeah, they get cranky sometimes, but what kid doesn’t? Yes, Kate ‘slaps Jon around’, but it is what I call ‘love pats’ and you can see the love in their eyes through it all. Yes, there HAVE been times were they have been upset with each other, but seriously, have you NEVER gotten upset with your spouse? I think the biggest problem here is that people forget the ‘real’ in reality. Yes, ‘real’ people (and that includes children) get upset sometimes and ‘real’ people make mistakes sometimes, but MOST people don’t have camera’s following them around all day for 3 or 4 days out of a week. And this IS TV, of course they will choose the parts that have the most ‘interest’. I’m sure that neither Jon or Kate are always happy with what they see of themselves on the screen. Now enjoy the show (or not–in which case–don’t watch it) and let them be the family they are.
Vicki
Note: I have 5 grown kids and I would NOT have wanted to be shown on TV. We all made our mistakes and we all lived through it. And we are all still a loving family, devoted to each other. It CAN be done.
Your comment is there Mary Ann.
where’s my comment?????????????
Everyone get over yourselves. I will say it again you all are just haters. If you all had a chance to make a better living for your family, Im sure you would. Are you all mad because you can’t go to the spa? She deserves it!!!!!!!!!
I agree, she does need to let up a little on Jon before she runs him out the door. But to say they are not doing this for the kids is crazy. You must not watch the show very often. Everything they do is for the kids. How often do you see them doing for themseves. I’m sorry all you haters can’t afford to go to the spa or take your kids on vaction but you don’t have to take it out on someone who can.
I have watched the show for as long as it has aired and Kate has changed ALOT!!! She does need to wake up and realize how fortunate she is and appreciate the simple things in life….
like her beautiful children and husband and not focus on the
material things. I think over the years she has let the fame
go to her head! She needs to recognize!!!
I love watching Jon and Kate. She just keeps getting nutso every ephisode. When you put your family life in front of national television you forfeit the right to privacy. You forfeit the right to say “Leave us alone.” Those are one of the disadvantages of reality t.v. You leave yourselves open to criticism. Kate has dissolved from the caring, loving mother, wife and friend to a lonley, nagging, controlling shrew. Watch the body language folks. Not once, on the last ephisode, they did not look at one another, Jon did not have his arm resting on the back of the sofa and Kate never interrupted him with rude comments or corrected his grammer. On a more cirical note,just how many carrots does that woman eat? Nobody gets that color in the dead of winter in Pennsylvania unless they are going to a third rate tanning salon.
Hello Ashley you are right people do not have to watch the show if they don’t like Jon and Kate. I started watching the show because I loved to see the kids. The only thing is now that it is starting to be more about Jon and Kate and not the kids. People are going to express an opinion about the show be it negative or positive. Why would you think someone is making themselves look bad by expressing an opionion about the show? Jon and Kate have put their lives on display and should expect some negativity. What is making it so bad is that the truth is finally coming out about Kate’s relationship with her family. The same goes as you said about if you do not like Jon and Kate or their show and to DO NOT WATCH IT. If you do not like what people are writing about Jon and Kate and the show DO NOT READ IT.
I agree with you Tina. My 5 year old and love this show. So what if they have a 1.3 million dollar home, you would too if you could afford it. Let them live there lives and normal as they can. You go Jon and Kate. We love you!!!!
I hope that everyhting is okay with their Personal love life.. I would hate to see them split. For those of you spreding these nasty rumors, do you relize what you are saying can hurt not only Jon and Kate, but the KIDS.. The chick that said she Kissed jon and is now going to sell it. Really now get a life…
PEOPLE- STAR MAGAZINE WANTS TO SELL TONS OF MAGAZINES!
The buzz your seeing on here shows they are going to do just that!
Jon was out and two girls took a photo with him. Does he have a right to be out for some fun? Yes, of course he does. Do the two girls in the photo have a right to sell the photo for some cash? Yeah and they probably did.
Star sees it as a perfect time to sell a ton of magazines. Gossip says they are not happy AND even Jon and Kate know people are getting tired of the show. The kids are growing up and people are losing interest. What better way to end this season by hinting there is trouble on the home front!?? More money for Kate and Jon!!! Plus it will mean people will come back for season 9.
Folks, it’s all about money and ratings!!
Do you guys not realize how long their episodes last. Seriously you merely see a glimpse of their lives and only the parts that the editors let you see. The parts that make the good tv. Please…. tell me that you do not ever get agitated for 5 mins once a week? I am sure if we took all of your bad moments and made a tv show out of them you wouldn’t look that great either… I can’t believe I just wasted my time writing this.
Okay…I just want to leave everyone this simple thought…If you do not like Jon, Kate, their show, or anything else about them and their family….do NOT watch it, and do NOT make rude comments about them and their family. It is truely that simple! IF you dislike them or the show, why in the world would you waste your time watching it and talking about them.
You know who you are, and you know what I am saying is true. Don’t make yourself look bad.
I have watched every episode of Jon and Kate. I told my husband from the very beginning that they would probably end up getting divorced, which, is very sad. Whether people are chritians or not I believe that if any of us had the chance to make tons of money to do a reality show we would. Jon and Kate are just letting it go to their heads as they say. I am a christian and do not like to speak bad of others, but, Kate does act horrible on the show. If they are chrisitians Jon should have never been in a bar, regardless of what happened. If this girl, sorry I forgot ur name does sell pics of her and Jon, good for her, she is only making money the same way Jon and Kate does. Also Jon and Kate have put theirselves in this situation by doing this show. They cannot expect that they are just going to get great vacations and clothes and everything else and nothing negative come from it. I did always wonder why she was not close to her family, but, from what I am reading is because of her acting hateful to her christian family because they did not do exactly like she wanted. That is so sad. What has happened with Beth and Bob? Has Kate made them mad also? What is this issue between Aunt Jodi/Julie?/Kate? I saw something on another web site, about this, but it did not say what this was and who is Julie? Why do you people keep saying that everyone that has something negative to say against Jon and Kate are jealous? That is stupid – people are just expressing their opinions, that doesn’t mean they are jealous. I do feel so sorry for the kids. Kate has alienated most of the people that they are close too. Don’t you imagine they feel abandoned by those people and feel sad not to get play with Aunt Jodi who they seemed to love and had spent so much time with and their little cousins. People were saying that Jon and Kate do not take money from people who do not need it, but, they do not do a speaking engagement without asking for a fee and when they speak at these Churches that does come from the congregation. I bet Jon or Kate neither one does anything without them benefiting from it. Several episodes were where they supposedly were giving back, like to St. Judes was it? Where they went to K-Mart and got toys, well, I wonder if they actually paid for all those toys themselves or if the show did or if K-Mart donated them? Kate needs to wake up and stop taking her life for granted. God has blessed her with eight beautiful kids. I went through infertility and would have loved to have at least had one, but, it was not God’s plan for me. I just wish she would actually spend more time with her kids instead of doing the show and all the book signings. Anyway God Bless to them and everyone.
I have watched the show from it’s inception and I utterly detest Kate. She is bossy, overbearing, immature, arrogant and insulting to Jon. I would definitely love to walk in her shoes, 8 children to care for would be something I would love(I have 4). She is doing her children a world of hurt by her actions, she is cheating them out of their Grandparents and that is horrible. One thing that always makes me feel better is the fact that one day she will have to answer to her children for the fact that she hasn’t allowed them access to their grandparents, cousins, aunts and uncles. It is a total shame on her part. I wish she would get some good Mental health care, because she is definitely not playing with a full deck up there. Jon has been a good husband, loving, kind, helpful, but she has treated him worse than a dog. If he did cheat, it’s sad, but she caused it and she needs to apologize to him, mend her hateful ways and start over by being a decent wife to him and a better Mother to the kids. I can also see that those kids are developing into neurotic little robots under Kate’s anal thumb. Matty is a total mess mentally and the others are sure to follow. Kate is greedy, controlling and mean. Let me walk in her shoes, I would love the freebees, the trips, the mansion and I would certainly treat Jon like he should be treated….with the respect that the father of her kids so very much deserves. KATE GET OFF YOUR PEDESTAL…….WE ALL KNOW YOU READ THESE WEBSITES.
I have watched JonandKatePlus8 as long as it has been on. I hate to see Kate take advantage of Jon. It seems he takes care of the kids, Kate cooks and does laundry but does not fold or iron the clothes. How can John be the full-time babysitter and also hold down a full-time job. Kate needs to enjoy her kids more.
Omg. you people are all so immature! fighting with eachother? when your how old? well that is pathetic! i am sure that they are both having a hard time right now, raising 8 kids and dealing with two puppies? do you people have any idea how stressful that is, for the both of them? neither jon nor kate need to take fault on this because this is both a very hard time for them. and as for jon ‘cheating’ everyone makes mistakes. i mean how would you feel if your wife wasnt very nice to you, and put you down and yelled at you all the time? well not very well. so he needed to relieve some stress. and kate. well how would you feel if you were the only one commiting to the family with a lazy ass husband? so everyone needs to quit arguing amongst themselves!! because the only two people who should be pissed at eachother are jon and kate! and the rest of you people need to mind your own buisness!!!!!
Our family is praying for the Gosselin family.All children need both parents in their home if possible.
Whats wrong with everyone? They are a true family, they were asked to have a show because they were the only people with a set of sextuplets and twins, at the time, that spoke out. Just because they put their show on the air, people started spreading rumors, just like they do to actual famous people. Its rediculas !
LEAVE THE FAMILY ALONE!
What ever happened to Beth. Jon and Kate talked about how Beth and her family were their best friends. Beth and Kate would go to the spa together and seemed to be very special friends. I hope their family problems are just a rumor as the children need both a loving father and mother in the home.
Typical Americans building this family up and then turning against them when life is made a little easier for a family of 8 children. I see the jealousy coming out of my fellow Americans now that life is made a little easier for a couple with a big family. Jon and Kate, are very generous for sharing their lives to the world and in return we give a few donations here and there to satisfy our own selfish wishes for us to exploit this family, yes us, the Americans people who made them famous in the first place so we can interfere with their private lives. This innocent family are by no means making millions of dollars on this show, nor are they exploiting their own children in any way. It is the American people who choose to do that, not this innocent couple who were asked to make a reality show in the first place. They did not seek it themselves. Why not give them a little help with donations? This family gives up their private lives to be shown to the world, it is only natural that they get something for sharing their lives with the public, so What is wrong with you people? Jon and Kate act like a normal couple, they are inlove and Sure they have stressful moments, after all they are in a reality show— hello?? It is not the Brady Bunch! We, yes we, the American people put This family in the spotlight for our own entertainment. And now some of you with such hateful words and gossip based on unfounded speculation is disgusting! You should be ashamed of yourselves. Nobody is forcing you to watch the show, if you don’t like it, turn the television of or shut your mouths!
I am afraid that Jon and Kate may be splitting up. The promo for next week shows a difficult discussion at the end, and since the show is taped ahead of real life time, this could explain Jon being see “out andn about”
Jon and Kate DO NOT WORK! So whoever said they do are sadly mistaken. Kate has been nasty to her family, friends, fans and dear Aunt Jodi. This evil woman calls herself a christian? She is an opportunist and a TAKER. All she does is TAKE TAKE TAKE! I know many families of multiple children, and none of them operate this way. They are ungrateful and are training their children to be the same way. She has an organic chef, around the clock nannies, personal assistants, etc…and NONE OF THESE DEAR PEOPLE GET AIRTIME, b/c Jon and Kate are liars! They are lying to the world that they do everything themselves! They are spoiled rotten freeloaders who will be begging to have family and friends some day!

Enpece buscando informacion del programa por que escuche que se ba a terminar. Pero para mi sorpresa en contre esta pagina donde uno puede opinar sobre el programa.
Lei cada uno de los comentarios y me sorprendio como algunas personas pueden faltarle el respeto a los mayores y como peuden decearle a otra persona lo que no quieren para ellos mismos y aparate de que nos les gusta el programa se saben cada episodio la verdad que me sorprende. Tambien me da lastima como algunos Senores estan peor que viejas chismosas ocupando su tiempo libre si es que trabajan por que por los horarios en sus comentarios parece que no. Creo que habria que preguntarle a su esposa e hijos como es el. Porque opina y opina pero por sus comentarios dudo que sea buen esposo o padre. Solo deceo que sus hijos no esten en edad para leer porque yo como hija o esposa me daria verguenza que mi padre o esposo se espresa de una mujer asi. Al que le quede el saco que se lo ponga.
A mi personalmente me gusta el programa hay cosas en las que no estoy de acuerdo con kate por su manera de reacionar pero el tambien tiene su actitud demaciado relajada algunas veces pero es como todo nadie somos perfectos ni tampoco somos monedita de oro para caerle bien a todos solo espero que los rumores sean mentira por el bien de su familia y que el programa no se acabe.
Sue, if you took that sarcastic backhand from Mark as a “sweet” comment, you need to think it over. He was being a little snot nose to you. I don’t think he is a “perfectly nice young man,” I think he is a person with no manners or respect for anyone, much less his elders.
I hope for the sake of their family that all of this is just one big rumor. Families all have their hardships and mostly for the sake of their eight children they can work it out. I love the show, and I too agree that Kate belittles Jon. Some say it is stress, others think she is a total bitch. I would say it is a little bit of both. I’m sure having eight kids is hard to handle but she needs to settle down and let them live their lives and not end up ruining them. I feel that if she continues to act the way she acts, she will run Jon away and the children will start to resent her.
I hate that everyone is talking so much crap about kate. Because arent the the rumors about Jon? Kate may be a little bit of a control freak but hell what mother isnt that wants the best for her children? I mean do any of these people have children that are talking crap about her? I think she does a wonderful job with so many children. I have four myself and wonder how she can do it with that many! And for those people saying she is lazy! KATE IS NOT LAZY!!! Hello I am sure it is very tiring but she does more than jon!! Jon does work you know!!!! So he is not there all the time!!! He does get to get away from it all for a little while during the day!!!
My daughter (age 11) loves this show……..I began watching it with her and was amazed at Kate’s attitude. I still let her watch it but use it as a tool of how NOT to talk or act towards your husband. My husband won’t even allow it to be on when he is home b/c he can’t stand to hear kate’s voice or demeaning ways. I have to admit I don’t enjoy it at all anymore and wonder why, as a Christian, Kate hasn’t seemed to learn to respect her husband as a person, as the head of her household and teach her kids to do the same? God Bless Jon!!
People defending Kate make me laugh. Do you even watch the show? Are you really too blind to see how these children are exploited every week? How she ignores their needs and how undisciplined and unhappy most of them are? What is going to happen to them when the cameras stop rolling and the endless free vacations and gymboree wardrobes stop coming? When they have to live a “normal” life again? I sure hope they’re socking away some money for all the therapy those kids are gonna need.
The woman is a fake. And I’m not just talking about the disgusting orange tan. from the beginning it’s been obvious that Kate has issues. Remember the trip to Disney? How could someone so germophobic walk on the ground of a gas station barefoot? There are many times throughout this series when Kate makes little “mistakes” that show her true nature. What happened to being organic? That seems to have gone out the window along with any morals that woman might once have had.
If Jon is really cheating then he’s scum. Men who cheat rather then grow a pair of balls, stand up to their wife, and work things out like adults are scum. This whole family disgusts me. The show disgusts me. What they have to complain about is beyond me. All those free vacations, clothes, toys, meals cooked by caterers, nannies, spa trips, plastic surgery, hair transplants, etc.? What are they complaining about?
Those of you saying walk a mile in Kate’s shoes…gladly. Any day. Tell me where to sign up to be queen of the world for a day. Those of you saying the world has bigger issues…sure. But now freaks like the octomom are seeing how Jon and Kate get everything handed to them and thinking all it takes to get fame and fortune is popping out a litter of kids. And now we, the taxpayers, are responsible for that. Just like we’ll be responsible for Jon and Kate and their brood when the show gets canned and the money they’re squandering runs dry.
you people judging kate are horrible. She is a mother of 8 children. I can only imagine the stress of dealing with screaming, yelling, running, hyper children. She does her best to keep her family together. The show is edited to make her seem one way or another. She is just like a lot of people out there, cuting coupons, trying to cook/clean/look out for her whole family. On top of all this she still finds time to do charity work, and give back to the community. She might snap at jon, but who doesnt snap at their spouse. Also, if jon was really bothered by it i’m sure he would have put his foot down. I know my husband would! Dont be jealous of the “free” things they get. Be happy that there are still people out there willing to give things away! I hope jon isnt cheating. i hope that the family will stay a family, and not listen to everyone bashing them here.
jon youy are so sick
Erica, very good point, I agree if people do not like the show then change the channel. I really do wonder about something, where do people get the information they do that write in this blog? For instance, Maggie saying Jon lives in an apartment above the barn, where did that come from? Just curious and wonder how reliable that information source is.
wow you people who are judging them need to get a grip. they do not pimp there kids or take advandage of them. can you honestly say that if a t.v station wanted to come in your hose and film you and your family you would say no. knowing all the free things that would come along with being the favorite t.v family in the the u.s im sure you would just say no thanks. w/out the t.v show they wouldnt be able to afford anything with 8 children. i know my husband and i both work and its hard for us to get ore 3 children everything they want and need. i know that i love my kids more than anything in the world and my husband as well, but on a day of laundry, diapers, baths, dishes, bill paying, grocery shopping, cleaning, phone calls, and never sitting down, i am not always the most loving person at the end of the night.can you say you would be smiling all of the time? imagine having your every horrible moment you have caught on tape, and put on display for the world. if jon did cheat on kate which i doubt very much, thats there personal relationship, and how many housewives across america have been cheated on and it would be hard enough to pick up the peices around your family already without public humiliation for everyone involved. o well if she doesnt talk to aunt jodie. have you always gotten along with your inlaws, and parents? i know i havent…get over it people. its their lives and if you dont like the show, then why watch it?
I too loved Jon and Kate Plus 8 when it first aired. It has become increasingly painful to watch as Kate belittles Jon and constantly whines and complains. It was only a matter of time before Jon decided that enough was enough. Does not excuse his behavior if rumors are true, but he could only tolerate so much of Kate’s disrespectful attitude towards him. I understand that Jon and Kate have signed a two year commitment to do the show and I do not know how true this is, but Jon is supposedly living in an apartment above the barn. If they do divorce, Kate can expect joint legal and physical custody of the children, since Jon does an excellent job of parenting. More so than Kate who constantly barks orders at everyone and constantly proclaims that “today could very well be the day I lose my mind.” Since Jon does not work, it is doubtful that Kate would child and spousal support but divide the small fortune that they have amassed pimping their kids on national television.
The biggest issue at hand is RESPECT. Unfortunatly it seems to be lacking on both sides of the Gosselin marriage, yes perhaps more on one side. By the same token we should respect their lives, even if they are on t.v. They are on TLC, not BIG BROTHER!!
Ha, ha Jon claims nothing “inappropriate happened”. Excuse me but a 31 year old father of 8 hanging around college bars is inappropriate in my neck of the woods. Sounds like Clinton claiming a hummer isn’t sex. Okay then, Jon, you just keep telling yourself that if it makes you feel better. Just one more lie onto of the millions the two of you have told so what the heck.
Moira, what a really nice thing to say. If conversation between two complete strangers, as in, Mark/myself(Sue) brought some laughter to your day then I feel very blessed. I sometimes get caught up in the moment and forget this is not a one on one blog and gosh, virtually unknown numbers of people read it. I guess one can say I got side tracked trying to defend the Gosselin family. I will not even address that woman that calls herself Sarah. I love Jon and Kate Plus 8. Strange to defend a family I have never met, but TLC knew what they were doing when they enlisted this family to be viewed by millions of people. I sleep late every day and stay up very late at night. I record this show and I have been known to watch an episode more than twice. Kate can get a little grumpy, Mady can get a little demanding, but if the family had turned out to be a boring family, no one would watch it. I am mystified that TLC has yet to address the RUMOR, and yes, until someone in a rather trustful position comes forth from the show and reports on the issue, then I guess we will continue to blog and speculate. In my personal opinion, I would love to see Jon and Kate address this is one of their future episodes, whether true or false. I would have much more respect for them if they outwardly denied it’s validity or if it did happen then they could tell us to keep tuning in even though a huge lapse of judgement overpowered Jon. Either way, if they expect us to live their lives through their lives, they owe it to us to set the record straight. Mark, if you read this I hope you give this elderly woman a break and don’t bash me too much. I am kidding young man, I bet you are a real sweet heart. Keep WATCHING JON & KATE and those adorable children.
I was reading on this site to see if anyone knew the truth to this rumor.I got side tracked by Mark and Sue.To bad TLC would not pick up the two of you for entertainment.I have been really sick the past six months,and this is one of the few times I have really laughed.I also hope that Jon and Kate work out what ever differences they have facing them at this time.They have eight beautiful children to raise in an already unstable world.They should have a stable home.Also,I think Sarah is disgusting.She would have these pictures plastered all over the place for their young children to see?Just to make a buck!You will also be plastering what a little tramp you are at the same time for messing with a married man.I am sure your future mother in law will be proud to have you as a daughter in law.I guess it doesn’t really matter.I do not believe you any way.
t
Kate is a whacko! Jon is a saint for putting up with her. All I can say is what comes around, goes around. One day her children will all be married and she is going to reap what she sews. Especially when her sons get married. Your son is your son until he takes a wife…proof in the pudding. She has alienated Jon’s family from their life and has done it to her own family…I would love to see interviews of her parents and her in-laws! Now that I would watch.
Mark, God willing, I should never have to be put in a “home”. I have a perfectly nice home with accommodations for a full time live in if I ever should need that arrangement. My husband and I promised each other that we would not put the other one in a “home” even if we lost our mental faculties. However, I would like to take a second to say you do sound like a nice young man and have a good heart. I too, would like to see this show be a success and that would mean that Jon and Kate and the eight children all stay together, happily. Even if the show were to air all the way up to the kids going to college I would watch it until I could no longer hear or see. It is great entertainment to me and I thought the idea of the show was a good one that gave people, like my husband and I a sneak peek into a really large family and the way they live their lives. We had an only son and both of us were single children, which is very unusual for that day and time. Thank you for being a little kinder in your words and I hope we have good things to report about Jon and Kate in the future. I still think TLC has some explaining to do.
I am a mother of multiples, and yes, while I believe discipline and order are vital in order to have a well run home, love is and always be the most important ingredient in a marriage/family. My husband and I will have been married for 16 years as of August 27th of this year, and our children have seen us at our worst, and best, and the worst they’ve seen is maybe a slight disagreement over whose turn it is to make a bill payment. He works with youth, and I work women and children in domestic violence situations, so while we aren’t rich, we are happy, and love each other very much. I understand Kate has a severe case of “cabin fever”, I however don’t think it justifies her behaviour towards her husband or children.
Hey guys! I talked to People magazine and the National Enquirer about the pictures of me and Jon kissing. I am going to go with the Enquirer because they are willing to pay a lot more. I just wanted to thank you for giving me the idea! I am going to be able to pay for an entire year at college because of this!
I look forward to the spinoff show: “Jon & Kate Plus Hate”.
P.S. to Laurie:
I read about all the Aunt Jodie stuff too. That is what really got be to start reading up on Kate, and how I discovered about all the other people she alienated. I always thought she was kind of awful for how she treated Jon, but the Aunt Jodie situation opened my eyes to just HOW horrible she is.
Oh Sue, I had no idea you were that old. You go ahead and say whatever you want. Might as well live it up before you get put in a home right? I SHOUDLN’T be a douche bag to my elders.
I think that they will get by just fine if this is all true and they do break up. I mean, it sucks for the kids but there are plenty of well adjusted children that were raised by divorced parents. It isn’t like Kate doesn’t have plenty of help around the house either. Divorce isn’t really that rare or that big of a deal these days (unfortunately). If it did happen, I really don’t think it would be the end of the world.
Believe it or not, I really do hope that they work through whatever issues that they do have.
I really hope TLC will consider addressing this issue so it can be put to rest. I have watched the show from the beginning and have enjoyed seeing these babies evolve into their own distinct personalities that are easy to identify now. I will be saddened if Jon has done what is rumored. If Jon is innocent the producers need to let the viewers know this. If he is guilty of wrongdoing, the show does stand a chance of the viewing audience taking issue with that and deciding whether or not to continue following the Gosselin’s journey. No one forces anyone to watch the show. It is suppose to chronicle their lives and the struggles and challenges of having multiples. There is much joy in watching the way it works sometimes and doesn’t work other times. I just wish the producers would say something so the truth can come out. I must say Kate seemed a little on the quiet side this last show in the interview room.
i really really really hope this isnt true because jon and kate plus 8 is my favorite show and if jon is donig this to kate..everything will fall apart! with 8 kids they cant afford to have 1 leave the other! if they do split apart ( which would be very heartbreaking) what would they do with the kids?? would kate take care of them? this is very sad and dissapointing….
I love the show. My husband and I are expecting our 4th in 5 years. I think Kate is a little extreme, but who wouldn’t be.
I was forwarded a blog that supposedly Aunt Jodi’s sister did. Remember Aunt Jodi? Anyone new to watching the show wouldn’t. Supposedly, the show wanted to offer her money for being on and Kate refuses to let anyone else profit from the show. That could be because she wants people to truly be there for her children and not money, but according to the blog, Jody said no to the money since it bothered Kate. Also in the blog was that Kate felt she was looking bad in comparison to Jody who has 4 kids and seems to be a bit more compassionate and caring. I don’t know what the true/whole story is, but they don’t live by Uncle Kevin and Aunt Jodi anymore, you don’t see them and they are never mentioned. There is something to be said with cutting people out of not just your life, but also your childrens’ and that’s sad.
Mark, before you judge me about my gender preference, I am a 79 year old, happily married woman to a wonderful man of 81 years of age. We have been married for more years than you have probably been on this Earth. Secondly, you may wish to use spell check as shouldn’t is not spelled shoudln’t as you wrote. I don’t accept typographical errors. Thirdly, it is spelled ellipsis, not elipses. Lastly, ellipsis can be used to indicate a pause in speech or an unfinished thought. I must admit that I have plenty of unfinished thoughts with being almost 80 years old. This was intentionally written this way to emphasize my irritation and disgust with your opinion and your arrogance of judging Kate. I did teach English for a few years while putting my husband through dental school. Then I became his full time office manager for over three decades. I am offended at your “butch” comment. I guess I am now ALL through with you. Say what you please, young man, I am tougher than you can imagine.
I really hope that Jon can shape up if he did this his is a plain old jerk. i love the show and would hate them getting a divorce
I wouldn’t care if she had a spa day, and it is not up to me because she is her own person. For some strange reason she chooses to spend free time hanging out with her family though. Weird, right?
By the way…..elipses…..shoudln’t be used in place of proper punctuation.
You write like you are an old butch looking woman.
Gee Mark, you never said whether or not you encourage your wife to have a spa day…..oh, that’s right….you’re the PERFECT MAN with the PERFECT WIFE….right………..
Sarah, you are a “real” piece of work…..you are NOT considering the children…..I guess you must not have much of a heart. If you do something for monetary gain, you are truly a selfish and spiteful person. Let Jon and Kate take care of their personal life if in fact these allegations are proven to be true. By the way, are you the “KIND” of girl that goes around KISSING strangers? Wow, you are a real prize.
Cut Kate some slack man. She is EXHAUSTED from going to the spa and emasculating her husband all day.
Just what is it that Kate does.? Jon baths all the kids .Why? Seems like jon puts them to bed. Does any one ever read them a story or help them say there prayers??
Basically I see Kate walkin around with her hands folded…come with it ..we know they have help to clean that house..etc
after reading all these comments i just hope and pray that jon has not crossed the point of no return in his marriage. while kate can be bossy and short at times with her husband no person deserves to be betrayed by thier spouse. if jon wants out then he should tell kate and handle it in private. lets all try to remember that no one is perfect and i certainly would not want the world commenting on my marriage famous or not
Cant say Im surprised. I have been a loyal fan of the family since their original documentary and all I have to say is the show (for me) is becomming near unwatchable because of Kate.
Thank God only 1 of the kids takes after Kate!
Jon and 8 Minus Kate? Id watch that for sure!
IF he did it I wouldnt blame him…that Kate is crazy..i’d have to get away from her somehow..
I didn’t kiss and tell because I didn’t think anyone would care about Jon cheating on his wife. I don’t watch the show and didn’t even know who he was until my friend told me. I just thought he was some cute older guy that was going back to school. Sue, you are right, I should have said something before the newsblog. I am going to go see how much I can sell these pictures for now though! Thanks for the advice, girl!
Sarah and Secret……..if what you say is true then why didn’t you kiss and tell, Sarah, or have proof of your accusations, Secret, BEFORE this story hit the news blogs…..I SAY you two are trying to make up things that are both hurtful and incite anger in people…..THERE are a lot of folks out there that do this for the pure enjoyment of it. Shame on both of you, you are not nice or you would think of the consequences of the innocent little children involved in this rumor. I say….IGNORE Sarah and Secret…I would rather read the phone book than read anything else these two have to say.
HOW COULD JON CHEAT ON KATE??????? SHE IS WONDERFUL, AND HE WOULD BE STUPID TO DO SOMETHING LIKE THAT….. HE IS LUCKY TO HAVE KATE.
He bought me a drink once. All I can tell you is that Jon is a great kisser.
Uh huh…. if you actually know her and this actually happened, where are the actual people who can support this claim? Why are you just coming forward with this now… RIIIIIGGGHTT.
i actually know her, and he has cheated on her in the past, with the babysitter (teenager) or if not cheated bought her lingerie, which is basically cheating…and he was known to be promiscuous before they married, which she kind of pushed, along with having children
Mark, You must be a “SAINT” if your wife has been with you eleven years and has never uttered an ugly word to you….If true, you need to put a patent on that and sell it, then YOU could be making some serious bucks and wouldn’t have to waste your time talking negative about folks such as Kate Gosselin…..DON’T WATCH, if you object to the format and the “EDITED” film we get to see. Why berate Kate about a simple pleasure such as a spa treatment. Just curious, do you encourage your wife to have a spa treatment now and again to treat herself? The folks that give money, WILLINGLY, to Kate and Jon are not doing so with a gun stuck to their head……she is INVITED to come and speak and like many speakers is given money to do so. So, get off your HIGH HORSE and just ride out of town and watch something more appropriate like say, THE DISNEY CHANNEL……..
He was out at the bars and it’s not the first time. My college age child saw him at another bar in PA near him named Legends. The stress has got to be killing them. Been down that road with 6 kids.
Actually, I have three children and I have been married for eleven years. In those eleven years, my wife has never treated me in the manner that Kate treats Jon, even at her worst moments. I do go to football games every once in a while but I am also not living off of “love offerings” from unwitting strangers who have been suckered into supporting a lifestyle of free vacations, nannies, monthly spa trips, and a new mansion. I work for a living, instead of jetting off every weekend and leaving my children in the care of free nannies so that I can go sucker another crowd of churchgoers into supporting a lifestyle that is much more extravagant than most of the people’s donating to them. I know that having kids is a humbling experience, which is why my wife and I made sure we were financially stable before we started a family.
No matter how many times people say it, I’m not “just jealous” but I am pretty interested in how I could start some sort of con where I can get everything paid for too.
Mark, I almost write last night but it would not have been as nice My first main concern with you is just the simple fact that you can’t have kids and yet you are so vocal about judging a mother of eight. You might be a dad but I doubt it or you’d know that with parenting comes a humbling experience and you might do things I would never and vice versa. I just went to a four hour long spa day and I wish I could go monthly that does not reflect on any way on what type of mother I am. Have you ever sat and watched a football game with friends thats the same idea we all need time to me ourselves. Also I understand that they let the cameras in to see the good and the bad and if you dont like it dont watch… I dont live in a mansion either but I OWN more then 3500 square feet that I and my fiance worked very hard for maybe you should start putting all this energy into your own life. Last comment!
I really hope the rumors about Jon aren’t true…mostly for those children.
I like the show. Yes, Kate is high-strung, but you also have to factor in that unlike some reality shows, the cameras are not in their home 24/7. They only film about three days a week. Out of those three days a week, they pick one or two things to fit into half an hour of television time. For the most part, they’re not going to show the boring stuff. They’re going to show the move, and vacations and painting and getting puppies. All of these would be higher stress situations for a family of four, let alone a family of 10. So we see a lot of Kate stressed out.
As far as the money, if I had eight kids to raise, I’d jump on it in a minute. Sure, they could raise a family on their original salaries. But why not take the opportunities and give their kids experiences they wouldn’t have otherwise? As Kate put it on one episode when she was asked if she thought the kids would regret being on television, she said she was pretty sure they wouldn’t regret having all their college paid for. I could only wish that my parents had enough money to pay for my college education. I also wish my parents could have taken me to Utah to ski, or Disneyworld or Hawaii. The show is very popular, and companies want to advertise. Do you really think your favorite TV character drinks a Pepsi because there’s some back story on why it’s their favorite soda? No, they drink a Pepsi, because Pepsi paid money to put their product in your favorite show. That how it works with the products you see Jon and Kate use and the vacations they get.
Personally, I think the reason people talk so much crap about these people and their show is because they’re jealous.
If he is really cheating then he is no-good.. yes kate does yell at him alot but solve it by going to counsling… I dont think its true but it does sound fishy all of a sudden going to see his mom 3 hours away.. who knows we will just have to wait and see..
Lauren, remember that the show is “EDITED” by the network for the viewing audience to see what they want us to. Many, if not most or all of the trips are INVITATIONS extended to the Gosselin family by various resorts in exchange for the FREE advertisement and publicity. They always arrive with film crews and the cameras come in handy to let millions see the hotel, resort, etc. Jon and Kate do both work out of their home. What is wrong with making an honest living by letting the viewers come into their home and see how difficult and yet wonderful it is to have a large family? It isn’t sugar coated.We get to see both the bad and the good that is part of every day life? I find it entertaining and I have to wonder, why all the negativity? If people are upset or bothered by this show, then why turn it on and watch it? Change the channel. It will cost a lot of money to send that many children to college, so I think it is smart that they are tucking away money for that. After all, the network came to them asking them to consider doing the show. I think Kate is a very high strung person, but I also see how she jokingly comments and some people just take it too seriously. She has tried hard, after the first season to tame her sarcastic mannerisms towards Jon. I don’t know a couple alive that has never had harsh words towards their spouse, unless they really do not listen to them. We don’t see every minute of every day…only edited clips. Lighten up please on the children, particularly Mady. She is full of emotion and also we do not get to see all the other hours of the day that she may actually be pleasant and nice to everyone. It goes back to what I previously said….and not orignial…..”Judge not that ye be not judged.”
i have been watching this show since it started, but now it just pisses me off. neither jon or kate work, yet they have tons of stuff, and whoever said walk a mile in her shoes, id be more than happy to because i would get tons of free stuff, id go to the spa, go on vacation, have nannies for my kids, and my mile would never end cuz whenever i see her latley, shes just sitting on her butt.
My husband and I had 5 children under the age of 7. I did not have people fold my clothes and another put them away. Nor did we live in a million dollar mansion. They have grown up in a 4 bedroom house that we bought for 50,000.00. They played and ate good food, got very dirty and took nice warm soapy baths, ( they do come clean you know! ). Even though they never received free trips here and there, never were on t.v., and never had so many people bend over backwards for them, they grew up just fine. We followed a pretty good routine and left room for changes along the way. I am happy to say they are now, 14, 16, 18, 20, and 21. I always thought Jon was a stand up guy, but if he’s cheating, he’s just another jerk in the spotlight. As far as Kate goes, give it up. Does she ever just enjoy her kids? She whines as much or more than her beautiful kids do.
Coming form central pa.. I have one thing to say,, Everyone around here is pretty much form a small town and is looking to get rich and get out. I am sure if there is a little.. girl for lack of better words.. that is having sex with a famous father, she would have surfaced, on her own, for the fame.. unless she is waiting for a more opportune time.
I am not jealous of Kate. Work it baby! But for crying out loud, do it with some class and common decency Kate!
This woman is suppose to be a Christian and has found a way to “estrange” herself from most of both sides of the family. Her weekly nationally televised emasculation of Jon is too much.(“to socially render a male less of a man
Come over here Jon, I’ll make you feel like a REAL man, forget that broad Kate.
According to Dr. Laura, it’s all Kate’s fault. If Kate was nicer to Jon, he woudn’t have “cheated” on her.
Wow. How can so many of you seem so self satisfied that perhaps this family will go the way of hundreds of thousands of other American families? Does it really make you happy to say that Kate had this coming? Would it really serve her children right to be the casualties of a divorce? Can you really judge and dislike someone you don’t even know to wish that upon 8 little kids? I’m just mystified that this is peoples response to this story. How many of the above posts were posted by children of divorce? I can tell you it’s most likely more than half. How sad. I really hope this story isn’t true. My heart goes out to them both, but mostly to those 8 beautiful kids, because true or false what control do they have over the media coverage, the outcome or the whispers at school Monday?
Sorry to hear about the possible affair that Jon might be having. I enjoy the show and the kids are adorable and well mannered.Kate needs to calm down…she made a big mistake at Disney World yelling at Jon because one of the girls had spilled ice cream on her dress. She always is seen yelling at Jon or belittling him for something. I yell at the TV when she pulls one of her rants on him. Kate is really bossy and I am sure that Jon does not appreciate airing all that to the country. Let them heal all the problems they have in private!!!!! I think he LOVES his kids and tolerates Kate. AND what will be, will be.
I am not jealous of kate. I do not want to be Kate. I do have kids and the number that I do have is not important. If I had zero kids I would not yell at my spouse, degrade my spouse, screach at him over coupons nor threaten to kill him on tv – yes she did say she would kill him and never let him out of the house again on the famous coupon episode. Would it be funny if a male said that to a female? Doubt it. And yes I would LOVE to walk a mile in her shoes. A monthly trip to the spa (Kate has confirmed this) trips to Utah, Hawaii, DisneyWorld not having to work outside the home and have hubby home to help all day plus a nanny. Then again to never see my parents…..maybe not.
personally,i love the show!!! i don’t think the Gosselins went looking for a show, the show came to them!! I don’t think i would pass it up if it meant a better quality of life for my family, and i figure you wouldn’t either!! Just leave them alone!! This world has more important issues at hand.
Ok, I have been watching the show for a while and I can’t stand Kate! She is very overbearing especially toward Jon. I know a couple in a very similar situation and the husband has lost friends and family members because of the wife. She keeps saying she is doing this for the kids, but how is this really going to effect the kids in the long run. It kinda makes you look at “octomom” a little differntly. (hey, maybe if I get inseminated and have multipules more than once, gap, mattel, Kmart, and disney will give me presents. Maybe I’ll get a tv deal and buy a 1.3 million dollar home.) Ah, low and behold I only have 2 kids and work for real. Would I be surprised if Jon was cheating? In a word…..NO! And thats how I see it.
“Judge not that ye be not judged”…..obviously not an “original” quote by me. All this hype over Jon and Kate is doing EXACTLY what STAR MAGAZINE had hoped it would do….create a Buzz that will SELL their magazine. Let a higher authority judge Jon and Kate and leave the entertainment to the eyes of the beholder.
You’ve never seen Kate spend money on herself? I think you’ve missed a couple episodes. How much money do her many spa treatments cost? How about the money it takes to get her stupid hair to look the way it does? Oh, remember that shopping trip to Banana Republic? That is definitely not bargain shopping in the least. I have plent of family secrets but you are never going to see them because I don’t have a television show, sweetheart.
Yes, all men will be lazy unless you harp on them endlessly and treat them in a way that makes you think you hate him. Are you married? If you are, something tells me you won’t be for long.
I am a young mom of one 17 month old. When I first watched the show I also thought Kate was well anal but after years of watching the show i have grown to love and admire her. Yeah shes a little bitchy but she only feeds her children organic, is teaching them to recycle, and is loving with them but does not spoil to name the very least. So all you people feeding your kids fast food are doing more harm to your own then she is at her worst. Also i didnt know their bank statements were public record you have no idea what she saves and what she spends on… I:ve seen all the episodes and right off hand I dont remember her buying anything for HERSELF, she had the same bunk camera for years. ALSO ANY MAN WILL BE AS LAZY AS YOU LET THEM SO GOOD FOR YOU KATE KEEP ON HIS ASS.
I am young so i have a lot of engery and yet by five in the evening I am worn out… YOU SAY YOU’D LOVE YO UWALK IN HER SHOES BUT YOU CANT SO ITS VERY EASY FOR YOU TO PUT HER DOWN. How many family secrets do you have?
Remeber Jon is younger than Kate—he has a lot of stress—& as someone else said—noone knows what happens off camera. Of course that is no reason to go out partying—he should stick to golf—he seems to enjoy that. Let him go golf without the children. Kate could go to a spa while hes golfing!!!Just a thought & I wish the best for all of them. How does anyone know why her family doesn’t visit—or why his family doesn’t come see the children at least.
are you happy ?
seriously ..
you have 2 twins at home and 6 tuplets.
they always hoped that nothing happened you guys.
EXACTLY THE POINT OF GOING TO HAWAII !
Frankly, I’ve always found Kate funny and someone who tries to be as down to earth as she can. I’d love to have her as my neighbor. I think a lot of her philosophies make sense; and although I am only raising 3 children (2 of the three are twins), I find we approach many situations with the same attitude. Sometimes this attitude includes ‘attacking’ our spouses. However, I had the temperament and personality traits before our children were born, and I my husband realized it. I suspect it’s the same way in the Gosselin household. I think they’re interesting; they probably have a stimulating marriage and can never forget they’re on camera. Kate’s personailty and Jon’s usual deadpan reaction to her is part of what makes that show fun to watch. As to what happens outside of the range of the camera – well, it’s really not our business. I wish the entire family well.
Um, Danielle, Kate sucks and I would love to walk a mile in her shoes. I would get to live in a mansion, take advantage of an endless stream of free vacations and products, have a stream of volunteers willing to do my bidding and take care of my kids, and I would get to slap….er…. love tap my husband and be a bitch to him. Sign me up! You got it right, I am totally jealous. Well, I’m not jealous of the fact that she has alienated her entire family and most of her friends, that her kids are going to hate her when they are older for taking advantage of them and not saving any of the money they helped earn, and that her husband is cheating on her. Aside from those things though, yes, totally jealous.
mhause166, Kate is alienated from her parents because her father is a pastor and she did not approve of the donations that his church got together for her children. She wanted only cash or matching things, so she cut him off.
Ok. First of all Kate Gosselin may appear to be a bossy, drill sargeant type that doesnt like shoes in her house or messy kids but I am the same exact way. When you have multiple children (and I dont have “multiples” but I do have 3 little kids, you need to find a system and make it work otherwise you will lose your mind. So people with the nasty comments about how HORRIBLE Kate is need to walk a mile in HER shoes before casting stones at her. People are jealous, inconsiderate, incompassionate morons who open their mouths without thinking. If people were more worried about living their own lives instead of making a mockary out of other peoples lives then maybe we’d have more parents out there like Kate and that would make the world a better place. Organic, loving, nurturing, clean, intelligent – - -what’s wrong with that!?!? NOTHING!
What does Kate have to day about all of this? Why is she alienated from her parents? I have never understood that.
What has Kate had to say about all of this? Why is she alienated from her parents?
all right jon…wondered how long you could contine to stomach Kate…she will get what she gives. the kids will
bail next…I notice she has no comment . glad you reconciled with your mother…safe to go visit without Kate
(heard your family can’t stomach Kate either,sad though that the kids aren’t aloud to visit grandma because of kate.
