I think that Kate was very bossy. She always critisized Jon on almost everything that he did. Their daughter, Maddy, is becoming like her mother. She is bossy, too.

Jon pleeeeeas STOP saying "I lost my whole twenties" - what a sick, stupid comment. You should've thought of waaaaaay before 8 children! Kate was the bossiest broad ever - from the beginning of the series it was almost painful to watch. I remember watching and saying to myself - is she serious? Who would want to be married to her..those poor kids are the ones suffering. they should cancel the show.....

These people make 10 million a year off the reality series. I hardly think they will end up on welfare. They also have endorsement contracts with a few sponsors they pays them additional millions of dollars. Don't look for them to be selling pencils on the corner any time soon.

Yes Amy I see your point. But I agree with "Mirha's" Response. After seeing this last episode, It seemes that Jon is just having a Mid-Life crises. He admitted to "Letting Kate have the Say-So". Kate had to be the one who organized and control the situation.. I mean My Gosh, He was'nt !

I do feel sorry for her, Hopefully, she is smart with her money, so that when the show ends, she'll be ok and so will the kids..

Does anyone know what Jon will be doing for money if the show ends?

God is he whining again? Why is he blaming her for having a career, someone has to work even if they get paid to be on tv. He is really milking his 15 minutes. Kate at least is trying to stay low key more than him having to go off to every tv,tabloid, party so his face can be out there. I will say shame on him. His kids will see this stuff and he is not putting himself in a very dad friendly light. ME ME ME is all I hear from him. Go home John, do you family job and stay inside if you have a date, we really don't need to see your latest "thing".

funny how Kate is always with the kids and taking care them, all photos of Jon he has a cig in his mouth, drink in his hand or a woman on his arm. If you had 8 kids how would you handle keeping things organized?

I agree about the fact that Jon is growing some. But I also think that TLC could care less who's lives are hurt, not even the children. They only want ratings. Most of America has watched the Gosselin family fall apart in front of the cameras, and that is so sad. We all know that Kate is the main reason for the break up. She had these kids for her wallet, not to love and take care of them. She is capitalizing off her own children, and that means her children are taking care of her, and she is NOT taking care of them. Jon deserves custody of his kids, he is very genuine, Kate is a fake and is only thinking of herself. Jon should have sole custody.

Amy - you are so right! In the grand scheme of things - WHO CARES!! This is personal and should stay that way. Explain why we are forbidden to have anything CLEAN and WHOLESOME on television. That a couple of crack heads on CNN-HLN have to ruin telelvision for us all. I only watch "Touch by an Angel" on the Hallmark channel. Knowing those idiots at CNN-HLN, they will probably get that show kicked off TV and start bashing the actors of the show! They are sick and those photogos are STALKING the Gosselins and all other actors and cellebs! It should be illegal!!

Give me a break.
Jon is a whiner. He's out partying and being seen
in bars drinking, smoking and smoozing with young girls
and all he can think of to talk about is how it's all Kate's fault. Bull, it takes two to make a marriage work and from what I saw he was always
behaving like a kid while Kate took care of eight kids, nine counting Jon.

He sure has moved on much too quickly to not have been having an affair to start with.
Men or women who have had or are having an affair will be the first to start trying to justify it by blaming the wife or husband.

All I've seen out of Kate is a woman who has a broken heart because her husband has stopped loving her.
If Jon had an ounce of maturity, he would not be out making an ass of himself when he has eight kids
who need a real father.

I hope Kate finds a real man sometime in her life who is mature enough to appreciate her. I also hope that she can look back and learn from her mistakes.

Money changed people and that is just how it is. I don't know ANYONE who's received a substantial windfall or raise and lived the way they "used to". Second, it would be feasible that they buy a small house to "share" to be near the kids while the other one has their "time" - They bought separate housing because they are divorcing. You don't buy a home WITH a husband you will soon be divorced from. And who really cares if their individual places are "swanky" as you say, if I had that money to be able to buy a really nice place I'd do it, I wouldn't buy a shack. Just look at the house they bought for the kids, knowing they were divorcing. They bought a home thats very large. with a large yard, a pool, dogs, and playhouses so the kids could run and play, unlike their homes in the suburbs that they had. Both Kate and Jon are getting substantial paychecks from TLC for this show - so he IS working and he DOES have a job. Now he's also working with Ed Hardy clothing. He's doing nothing different than Kate, she's branching out as well with her cookbooks and childcare books. I'm sure Jon will get a percentage of that. Kate and Jon both have made mention on the show that they are blessed to have the show because it gives them a lifestyle they wouldn't have been able to give their kids, and it also gives them security for college for their children. No one is the villian, both have said their marriage has been over for well over a year now, so I don't blame Jon for dating. I think Kate will have a harder time getting a man in her life because of her controlling personality.

I love how everyone can judge these people or even this Hailey person or Kate Major from Star magazine. I love it even more when they pass judgement like they know them, what were you, their babysitters? A neighbor? A relative? A friend of a friend of a friend? It's obvious these two had agenda's as well. I can absolutely see where John is saying he "lost his 20's". He and his wife went through invitro treatment to have children and they had twins. They both admitted that Jon wanted no more children and Kate is the one who BEGGED for just one more - due to their religious beliefs they do not believe in chosen reduction, so they had SIX babies.

Neither Jon nor Kate are villians, it's just a marriage that outgrew itself and I think the fact they they are going back and forth and leaving the kids in the house is a great idea. They really are looking out for their childrem. I was really hoping their faith could have them, but not this time. Very sad. They are still a wonderful family and pointing fingers isn't helping anyone, especially the children.

Well, my problem the whole time with this show is that they are supposedly christians. But if you truly are a christian then kate would not cut Johns balls off on every show. she is a total bitch. I get that they have eight kids, but this is after all there life. She needs to grow up and get over it. Stop being a total bitch. Her oldest two especially maddy is turning out to be just like her and she will follow in her foot steps if Kate doesn't make a change for the better. I'm sorry they are getting a divorce, but just maybe this will be a wake up call for kate I hope so!

I think regardlesss of everything that has happen Jon should have been a bit more sensitive to the kids in regard to dating so fast. Marriage is a bond that you share with someone you love. When the love is gone and there are kids involved it's not about you, but the little ones you have given to this society to scrutinize.
Psalms 91:15 (15)He shall call upon me, and I will answer him: I will be with him in troubles; I will deliver him, and honour him. "Time heal old wounds" and bringing a third party in at this time is not the answer for either one of them.

I get so sick of people bashing on Kate. Perhaps she had to dole out the $5 because she was trying to budget for a family of 10. Perhaps she was bitchy because she has 8 children and a husband who lacks intiative. Wouldn't you be a bit snippy if you had that? I would. She has 8 children and was/is just looking for a way to support them.
So what, he lost his 20's. He made a choice to get married and have children. That was his choice. It was his choice not to stand up for himself and be a MAN!! You lose the option of life being just about yourself when you have children- the children that he fathered.
Time reveals character. Who cares who ended it or when? His children just found out. Jon, the stand up MAN, doesn't give his children the time to heal. He goes cruising around the world with a little bimbo because it makes him feel young and it is exciting. He is "excited" about his new chapter in his life. Wait... all he cares about is his children.
It is sad.

I think they should stop the show ASAP! It's terrible what has come of people...to subject your children to that situation is just beyond me. Greed got in the way of what is most important; the children.

Kate is not home??? You jackass.........who is out getting banged with new and different chicks practically every week, or did you miss the passing parade of Jon-nie galpals???

Puhleez!!! Ever try to live with 8 children with a man with no job, no get up and go, no committment, no sense of how or better yet, WHY to be a grownup?????? He has 8 children, that's why, you JERK!!

in case you didn't notice they both are paid by TLC network so I guess they both are working.but who cares this bs happens everyday so what. it sucks for the kids

I think it is very sad. I do think Kate did put Jon down quite a bit. He was a good sport. The children are precious and it so very sad it has ended up this way!!!!!

I am the mother of 5 and now divorced and remarried after 5 years, my ex went off and dated a girl 22 years younger than himself and after a year and half proprosed and now is married to her and expecting twins, althogh while married to me he went and got himself a vesectomy,againist my wishes.
We share costody and most of the time get along for our kids sake. Anyone with kids should do whatever is best for them, I think that Kate and Jon started out with the show wanting to show how difficult iit is raising a lot of kids, but they seldem had time for each other as a couple. When they started to have trouble they should have stopped the show and taken time to work on being husband and wife again in addition to Mom and Dad. They are both responsile for the break down of the marriage and I know they both feel much guilt over how this is playing out, they can't see it now but when it is final and they both are alone they will regret not fighting for their family.

Why do you care and WHO THE HELL ARE YOU OR ANYONE ELSE to JUDGE?
It isnt YOUR lfe and it is YOUR marriage, and it sure the hell isnt YOUR kids.. It is VERY easy to JUDGE, but it isnt YOUR job.

why dont you mind your own life and maybe learn from this experience you seem fasinated to JUDGE? there is a saying you might want to ponder......
LIVE AND LET LIVE. This is their life, their marriage, THEIR kids ... they have to learn from this and YOU can pray for a decent outcome for these kids. NUFF said !!
