Remember when Jon Gosselin was going to Cannes with the 22 year-old daughter of his wife’s plastic surgeon and was hanging out on Christian Audigier’s yacht? Remember when Jon was in Sundance with another 20-something rich girlfriend, making out in public, snatching up freebies and requesting security to accompany him wherever he went? Remember when he was BFFs with Michael Lohan and was pitching his own reality show through his spokesperson? Remember when he called himself the “most photographed person on the planet?” I could go on for several paragraphs with more examples, but I’ll spare you.
Well fame didn’t work out for Jon, so he got another girlfriend after that string of co-eds and ended up getting a real job installing solar panels. Then in May he announced that he was doing his last interview, because he valued his privacy. Only he went back on that of course, recording a recent video for RumorFix in which he’s telling his ex wife that she needs to return to a “simple life” like him. This is response to her ridiculous People Magazine cover saying she’s scared about her future now that her kids’ reality show is over. That’s an admirable sentiment from Jon, but he used to act just as entitled and money-grubbing as Kate and would have been all over his own reality show if he’d had a chance.
Former reality star Jon Gosselin is giving his ex-wife, Kate Gosselin, some tough love and he’s using RumorFix as his exclusive vehicle.
Jon, who doesn’t speak to the former star of Kate Plus 8, has some surprisingly stinging words for America’s most famous mom: “Reality TV is not a career. Get back to a normal life — a simple life. Provide for your family.”
Jon, who says he has given up TV and is enjoying working as a computer support engineer, is responding to People’s cover story where Kate claims, “I’m really scared,” after her TLC reality show was cancelled after six years.
Although Kate says she is “freaking out” about her financial future, Jon is optimistic. “Things will work out the way they should work out. Obviously there are families out there that have several kids – people work normal jobs and things work out. Everything is possible,” he tells RumorFix.
And what if the Dancing with the Stars alum has to unload her huge farm home in Pennsylvania? Jon has absolutely no sympathy, “I don’t have a farm on 24 acres and the kids seem to have a great time at my house.”
Jon tells us he sees the kids “a lot,” but says a court order requires that he not be more specific. He also insists that he continues to pay child support.
Jon adds that he likes his life now that he’s out of the limelight. “I go to work every day and provide for my family,” he tells us. “I spend time with my kids – spend time on the weekends. I spend time with the girlfriend I’ve had for over a year now. And enjoy a normal lifestyle.”
[From RumorFix]
Well I agree with him and he does seem like he’s changed. He’s not perfect and I’ve seen him acting like a jerk to his kids in the last few episodes of the show, but he’s surely better than Kate is with them. At least the dude is trying now, even if it wasn’t the noble choice that he’s trying to make it out as. He didn’t have any other options, so he went back to work and does interviews occasionally. Who would have thought at the beginning of his cheating scandal, and with all the messy madness that ensued, that he would come out the better party and the better parent?

I’ve always thought he was the better parent. After escaping from the mad woman I couldn’t blame him for enjoying himself for once-even if he did go overboard. Yay for Jon!
He does know that child support is part of living the “simple life,” does he not? I certainly hope so, because brother, that’s gonna be doozy!
Now please PLEASE disappear into obscurity, both of you!
Jon would be on a new reality show in a heartbeat. He couldn’t get one and he was a pathetic father after the separation, a New York pad, hanging out in the Hamptons, etc. BUT he’s been humbled and seems to be in a good place.
Kate has made a ton of money off the show, books, paid appearances, gigs on tv like Entertainment Tonight. Her DWTS gig I think I read she made 400,000. She’s living like a star. She should have been socking that money away. Time to turn your new Audi in Kate and sell your 1.3 million dollar house and move to a 650,000 dollar house. I know it’s slimming, but you can do it, girl. Lol
I too honesty think he learned his lesson about pimping out his kids on the show, I would have thought Kate would have learned her lesson too but bitch is beyond help and ya Jon was the better parent.
He does pay child support.
Jon acted out when he and Kate separated but some people go through that when they end a marriage.
I have seen him frustrated with his kids but never mean and abusive like Kate so I don’t get it when you say that he was a jerk.
All in all Jon has a job, stays out of the press and is in a committed relationship and has always been the better parent.
I actually worry about those kids with just her, and no cameras or “staff” present. We’ve all seen her freak out with all that support-how will she manage and keep her temper under control when she’s alone?
Yeah, I always liked Jon more than his ex. As for Jon cheating, I always thought Kate was getting it on with Steve the bodyguard, but hid her dirt better. I also thought the kids liked him better. lol
Ugh. I hope TLC pays for the therapy those poor kids are going to need.
Jon was a more compassionate parent even on edited tv. Kate is TOXIC. So good for him. Hard to argue with anything he said in this interview.
I disagree about him being better. They are both terrible. I feel for those children. Wonder if he is paying any child support? Doubtful.
Anyone who watched that show knows that Jon was the one who was the caregiver. He changed the kids, took care of them when they were sick, fed them (more than three grapes and some apple) and played with them. He also put up with his shrew of a wife who made him sleep in the basement and yelled at him constantly. So he went crazy for a year after his release, I would have too. He’s the better parent AND better person. I have been on the GWOP site for a long time and all her batshit crazy has been there for a long time while everyone tried to get this show off TV for the kids, who have obviously been seriously messed up by witchypoo.
She’s been bad-mouthing him in every media outlet she can find for 2 1/2 years. I really can’t blame him for speaking up.
It’s been 2 years since the divorce and Kate can’t stop insulting the father of her children. What an asshole she is.
The proof’s in the pudding, and he’s the one who got a regular job, bought a house, settled down. He pays child support (if he didn’t, Kate would be screaming it from the rooftops!) and always has. She’s just pissed she can’t continue to make money off the kids’ backs to support her super stah lifestyle. She makes me SICK.
Jonny boy is sounding a little jealous. “I don’t have a private estate on 24 acres.” He’d take that house in a heartbeat. And the fame.
Sure, he acted out after the marriage ended, and honestly looked like a fool. I agree with Original Tiffany – he was always more of a caretaker, calmer, and less controlling with the kids. Plus, all the crap from her he put up with? There are so many clips of her being snotty, patronizing, even smacking him. I suspect she’s going to have a harder comedown from fame than he did.
Even if his points are kind of right, his lifestyle wasn’t his choice, it’s because he has no other option. I don’t like him more or less than Kate. Team Aiden.
I think he’s settled down and gotten back to normal. I think he rebelled a bit after the divorce, but now seems to be on the right track. I do believe that he has concerns for his children, given who has them 90% of the time I understand. He’s right in his coment regarding reality stardom. It’s fleeting and not a career. It’s over Kate. You need to get a job, move to a more manageable house and get you and the kids out of the public eye.
I think he learned, like Heidi and Spencer, that reality tv is not a career. Its good while it lasts, but it won’t last. KG seems to think she rose above all that, but she too will fade to obscurity. It could not happen soon enough, in my opinion.
@Gee ITA. Jon would be doing a reality show if he could. He’s no better than Kate. In fact, if he wasn’t so much of a slacker/loser, he would have manned up during the marriage, instead of allowing Kate to run roughshod over him and his children. Instead, he sat back and did nothing but reap the benefits of their celebrity.
Let’s not forget that it was Kate who insisted that the money from the show go into trust accounts for the kids. Jon would have blown through all of it buying ATV’s, boats and Ed Hardy t-shirts. And he may be paying some support, but a $12 an hour job installing solar panels is not going to take care of 8 kids; it’s just not. Kate’s far from perfect but she is the responsible adult in this scenario.
@ RonN
Seriously! I remember when Jon complained that she had “12 accounts” and 8 of them were for the kids’ futurues…Kate is a lot of things but I can’t imagine her touching her kids’ accounts. I can definitely see her finding other routes (counting down til the day Maddy becomes a child star…)
I think as soon as the children’s ability to earn Kate money peters out, she will be happy to pass them off to Jon, and perhaps they’ll have a little more of a loving parent to live with.
Loathe them both. Think they are miserable excuses for parents. Period. Can’t believe Kate got another People cover. I won’t be buyin’!
Jon acted like any man would act after a divorce. He partied and screwed everything in site. He just went a tad bit crazy.
It does not take a genius to realize that Jon is a much better parent. Watch the show for 30 seconds and you will realize that Kate is a crazy mental case who is a child abuser. Even the earlier episodes, show Kate as a pathetic excuse for a mother. Hell, even her own parents want nothing to do with her. I will be waiting for 8 tell-alls in 10 years about what a mommy dearest this C U N T is, as a mother.
When the story first broke about Jon cheating, I didn’t care because Kate was/is such a vile, disgusting excuse for a human/woman/wife/mother. I was not surprised because it was just a matter of time. Then, the real Jon started to show and I was surprised at what a douche he really was. I guess Kate constantly being a bitch over shadowed it. He should really sit down somewhere though because had his plans for a reality show worked out, he would still be whoring himself and his kids out just like Kate. He had no other choice but to return to simply life because his plans of being a star fell through big time. Now, he is trying to act holier than thou with his sanctimonious bs. Things two should really be together so they don’t inflict themselves on normal people. Even with all that said, I still think he is the lessor of two evils.
@lola Trying to defend anybody’s behavior by using their gender is idiotic. Especially seeing as how no woman would ever get away with acting like that, regardless of if her husband was an a-hole. People would be try to tear her from limb to limb and not one person would be making excuses for her.
I love the “get the look” link above the last pic LOL
He is such a hypocrite. he didn’t mind the reality show when he was getting his cut.
He’s right. She’s a scam artist. If she has 8 accounts set up for the kids, why is she “freaking out” about supporting them without a TV show? Because she will wave those poor kids in anyone and everyone’s faces to keep leading the “pampered star” lifestyle she thinks she’s entitled to. Problem is, she is one of the most unlikable personalities on TV.
@lola
Jon, is that you?
And no, not all men act like way, screwing like crazy and drinking. Those actions make him the “better parent”?! hahahaha Just as taking almost all the money from the joint account did, huh?
Not a fan of Kate, but she is the one raising the kids, not Mr. Hypocrite.
Hope he has a good job to pony up support for day care, etc., after Kate goes to work as a nurse or something.
I absolutely HATE what TLC has become with reality shows like this, Toddlers & Tiaras, etc. It used to have good, educational type programs. Now TLC should stand for Total Losers Channel.
It’s called Post Divorce Fucking Syndrome, and he had it bad.
Yeah, he’s probably living the life he is because TLC has him under contract which means he can’t get another TV job or else they would sue. He also is paying her child support, otherwise she’d be on some chat show with a purse full of bills she has to pay without child support.
As far as the kids’ accounts go, they get 15% total out of Kate’s $250K an episode. AND she can take out expenses from them for the children.
Just love the People cover. What a bitch she is.
oh please – if someone wanted to put him in a reality show he’d be on it like white on rice.
@Daiy-ITA!!! She may be a shrew but he is nothing but a whiny, bitter little bitch! His holier than thou b*llshit is unreal, bc given half a chance, he would totally jump back into the fame/money lifestyle if anyone was even remotely interested.
She may be utterly nauseating, but he is doubly so, IMO. Those poor kids.
-Now- he values his privacy and the simple things in life? Bet this jerk would trade it all for what he lost if he could: Money and TV fame. He and Kate deserved each other.
I always liked John better and he makes a lot of great points.
Worse than manipulating and using her children for her own pockets she has instilled within them Tge belief everyone in the world will cater to them and provide trips, toys, houses and tv spots.
He is right. He may not have a million dollar house with acres of land but I have no doubt the children are happy and comfortable in it because he provides them with stability and makes them aware even in a dinky home without dozens of rooms they can learn to be comfortable and adjust to the smaller.
No offense to anyone but why is the issue of child support even relevant . This is a woman who has squeezed out millions via various forms publicity. Frankly she should have saved enough to have them comfortable till all her children are 18 and beyond. Instead she is ‘scared’ now for their immediate future. SMH. I wouldn’t be shocked if she’s bled her finances dry catering to her fantasies of being a celebrity.
He’s right, she has no talent and a messed up personality.
Child support is relevant because the man has children, and he is legally and morally responsible to pay them whatever amount the Court so states. His responsibility in this matter will change as Kate’s income changes. That’s why we are discussing it. His digs at Kate are fun now, but not when he’s working three jobs and has to sell his car to afford support payments.
I really hate being in the position of defending Kate, but there you go. She is a single mom and the custodial parent, I believe, and the one taking care of their daily needs and routine.
He was a willing participant in the reality shows, until he was no longer getting money from him.
And, I would be saying the same thing regardless of gender. I don’t like Kate or Jon, and have never watched the show except for ONCE. that was enough.
Why would anyone assume Kate has NOT touched her children’s account? (re: comment above)
Reality TV provides zero financial protection for child stars. Parents are not required to set aside their children’s earning into an irrevocable trust (as are parents of children on regular, non-reality TV programs). Any monies set aside for them, Kate is able to tap into to use for their “expenses”.
Kate admitted she hasn’t saved for the children’s college accounts. It makes you wonder WHAT the money has been used on, other than a multi million dollar home that the children will have no use for once they are 18, multiple cars for Kate, thousands of dollars worth of hair extensions, clothing, tanning, and plastic surgery for Kate… and the list goes on.
The Gosselin children do NOT have an independent advocate or lawyer negotiating on their behalf, or protecting their interests. It’s incredibly naive to assume that a parent of a child-star would protect their child’s money for them– we’ve seen it happen time and time again.
He did more for each of his kids shown on the show than my father did in the 13 years he was with my brother. My father never took my brother any where or bought him a toy.
anyone who had to go through what he went through with Kate would have the same outburst. I really can’t blame him for being a douchebag for however long. he’s back to normal now.
I think Jon learned his lesson, and fairly quickly, about “life after reality television.” He’s not the most likable dude, but I think that he saw firsthand just how unmarketable being famous for the sake of being famous really is.
Mornin Ladies
OK Jon, your getting good press. Keep quiet. Go away now. Practice what you preach.
@Jaded:
“I absolutely HATE what TLC has become with reality shows like this, Toddlers & Tiaras, etc. It used to have good, educational type programs. Now TLC should stand for Total Losers Channel.”
TOTALLY agree!! Disgusting
He may be right, but God, does he disgust me.
If Jon got an offer today for another reality show, dude would jump on it!
Everytime he talks he waves his hand and the angle is odd – it looks like he’s stroking his balls. Which actually kinds sums up reality tv: watching people stroke themselves. Sigh.
I notice he’s happy enough to give an interview even though he’s “moved on.”
Bottom line: They have both ruined whatever goodwill they may have had with their behavior and their mouths.
That’s it, that’s all, and there ain’t no more.
He’s the lesser of two evils. I believe he only went back to normal life because show biz didn’t want him. Hopefully now she’ll do the same (but I doubt it).
Seriously, who is dating this guy? He’s not at all attractive, he’s kind of a public joke, he has a horrible witch of an ex, and 8 kids to support. What a catch!
Jon has been vindicated after a bit of post divorce rebellion he’s proven to be less annoying, abusive and crass than his ex. Of course he’s the better parent (that’s not saying much) and in a few years I bet all 8 of his kids will find a way to cram themselves into his 2 bedroom apt and leave that evil witch in the mansion she bought with the exploitation of their childhood.
I have ZERO sympathy if she has to sell her house, car, etc. Any idiot knows that reality tv shit doesn’t last forever and if she were smart she would have been socking it away for years, with her house paid off and a huge bank account.
Glad to see he’s sounding like a normal human being.
seems to me that kate is the one worrying about the kids’ futures. she is the one that put away $$ for their colleges..while he was whoring around. how can she get a regular job when she has 8 kids to take care of. who could afford the childcare. get real jon. be grateful that kate is as responsible as she is.
Well I’m sure now that the show is ending the press is hounding Jon for answers.
But I’m sorry if Kate can’t afford to pay for 8 kids without being on a reality television shw then she should not have had 8 kids. Quite honestly, the way this bitch treats her kids she should be the one paying child support to Jon.
Regarding putting money away for the kids, I bet it has more to do with the fact these kids were working and not just Khate thinking about her children’s future. The contract or probably stipulates x amount of $ go to each child and must be put in a trust for their safekeeping. I would think child labor laws come into effect, but I could be wrong this is just a guess. People are defending that witch on here and I think she is pure evil and her children factor dead last in a list of priorities.
Oh never mind I didn’t read Amanda’s comment about the kid’s money – sounds like there are no laws protecting children from slave labor.
@TG exactly right UNLESS she can prove to the court that the expenses are being used to the children’s benefit she can’t touch their trust funds do to child labor laws so Kate doesn’t deserve any credit for having trusts set up.
Glad he can finally speak out! And he is not making the nasty snide comments against Kate they way she does to him on the Today Show (or any chance she gets!).
I think Jon is a giant assh*le, who should keep his mouth.
Both he and Kate are terrible parents. In all fairness to Kate, I’d also be a raving bitch if I had eight small kids. Jon spends hardly any time with those children, so he’s a fine one to be all judgmental about her parenting.
The only good thing I have to say about Jon is that at least he’s been responsible enough not to knock up any of these young girls he’s been screwing.
This guy has some nerve. He’d be training for Dancing With the Stars right this second if given the opportunity, yet he’s playing off his obvious rejection by the media as simply being above it all, like he chose the high road of living a normal life rather than it was the only option he had.
Kate has custody of EIGHT KIDS and he’s lecturing her? They’re his kids too but I don’t see him getting a good job that will support them or stepping up as their sole provider. All that falls on Kate. Kate’s a monster but he really needs to sit down.
Okay, completely ignoring the money she and John made while together, filming “John & Kate plus 8” – she made $250,000 per episode for “Kate Plus 8,” and filmed 21 episodes of that TLC show plus 6 special one-hour episodes of that show before the 2010 season. She also made $500,000 for dancing with the stars. That is $7.25 million in about 14 months. Even a conservative investment of that money would earn 2.75% per year, or $200,000, every year, for all of eternity. Remember, that is not even taking into account the money she received (and spent) prior to June of 2010, nor all of the free stuff she got and still gets. (The jury is still out on whether TLC paid for their home)
It’s hard to argue with these numbers: unless Kate is criminally negligent with the money she made (off her kids) last year, she should have plenty of money to raise those kids. Remember that she will (in all likelihood) continue to make some money here and there through syndication or book deals, plus Jon’s paltry child support payments. And Kate won’t be working, so she won’t have to pay for childcare, which eats up a considerable chunk of normal, working schlubs’ salaries. $200,000 per year, even for 9 people, is a comfortable life – something many people would kill for. I do believe Kate currently spends $200,000 a year just ensuring the continual presence of her “bodyguard,” however. And there’s the rub.
I think he’s trying and I don’t think he ever liked the reality show. I do wonder how much time he spends with the kids though. Their last arrangement was to keep the kids in the mansion and then take turns being there.
How is it that he can go without talking to Kate? I wouldn’t want to talk to her either, but if she were the mother of my children, isn’t it necessary?
Neither of them are prizes, and who knows who’s the better or worse parent unless we were living in the house with them sans cameras.
Kate wanted fame for having multiple births form front street. All of this started when they were featured in in a Reading Newspaper (I think Reading Eagle). IIRC, Kate contacted them to write a sympathy piece about them. I’m sure that’s one of the reasons TLC came calling.
http://www.realitytvkids.com/2011/03/seeking-spotlight-kate-called-up.html
It’s actually sad to see this family fall apart, even if both of them are douche-arific.
I’ve never been married or divorced, but people do act out after a breakup, partying, going on the rebound, etc. IF Jon wised up since then, good for him. Kate didn’t do the same. I disagree that if the roles were reversed, the woman would be dumped on. If Jon acted the way Kate did and she bounced out of there, she would have gotten plenty of sympathy.
At first, I gave them a pass because I know these show like to angle people as the good or bad guy, but Kate been showing her ass more than Jon. I don’t know if he’s the better parent, but he’s turned out to be the lesser of two evils.
“His responsibility in this matter will change as Kate’s income changes. That’s why we are discussing it. His digs at Kate are fun now, but not when he’s working three jobs and has to sell his car to afford support payments.”
—–
That’s not how it works. Child support is a percentage of what he makes and has nothing to do with what Kate makes.
I remember Jon not wanting to keep on doing the show. I remember it was like a thing on the show, maybe a season before they divorced? Where Kate’s saying she wants to, and enjoyed it. and he was saying no, because of the privacy issue. So i think he was conflicted, tried to go along with it and get his own show and all to maintain his income on a par with Kate…but now, I think he’s back to his senses. @Dingles- You commented he should get a “good” job to support his fam…hey. Installing solar panels is a good job. It’s even a progressive job. How do you know he can’t support them on that? Why should he be the sole provider, if Kate likes/wants to work? They arranged things the way they arranged them. But Jon goes to work everyday now and there’s something respectable about that( to me). It is a good example to his children. Just cos Kate makes more off her celebrity stuff doesn’t mean he needs to find a job making as much, which would be practically impossible for him. Living high on the hog isn’t everything. Their whole family seemed happier in the smaller house in the suburbs. He also still gets money off the old shows I’m sure. You don’t need to be a millionaire to raise 8 kids. People raise larger families than the Gosselins on WAAAAY less, everyday.
@Liamarie: I’m not sure where John and Kate are from, but in Michigan child support is calculated using a formula which considers each parent’s income and the amount of custody they are awarded.
He’s a douche, but I believe he loves those kids. She’s a shrill bitch and her idea of love is cold and twisted.
Failing some daytime gig a la The Talk, she will try to shill another reality show. When that fails she will attempt to pimp out her kids like Ms Lohan. Acting, singing, famewhoring…we haven’t seen the last of her. But the clock is ticking, thankfully.
Great picture of him lifting his shirt. Thanks for posting it lol. Won’t be able to get that image out of my head for a while, great!
I’m not sure which picture was grosser? The shot of Mike Lohan or Gosselins overhung gut.
I think I’ll go Milo. Yuck.
I’m surprised no one here has mentioned Kate’s Audi TT she got when she traded in her LandCruiser for it (the Audi) AND a Sequoia because ‘she got a good deal’.
My bad. Should have read previous thread.
Both my parents came from a family of eight kids and they did make do. Did they live in a mansion and have lavish vacations? No. But they had two parents who supported them any way they could. It is doable.
They’re both assholes.
I hope those children learn what is really important in this life. After seeing her on Sarah Palin’s Alaska program my opinion of her was just solidified! She is a selfish little child. She took away from them a little joy because she could not handle a little discomfort! Shame on her! She is not a real mom!!
He should’ve behaved better, but I figured he was going through some kind of mid life crisis after his divorce. He’s not the smartest person in the first place, but I think being bossed around by Kate for so long made him even more dumb.
Also, if Kate got a job working during school hours then she wouldn’t need daycare. Not all nurses work 12 hour shifts, some work in doctors offices which have better hours.
I understand where people are coming from when they say Kate is bitchy because she has 8 kids, I would be too, but the bottom line is, she is an adult and nobody forced her to have so many children, they already had two before the rest of them, and one should really think of the responsibilities and consequences that come with parenthood and nevertheless refrain from having so many of them anyway. I mean even if you’re a billionaire and have several nannies and help, there is the problem of not being there enough for one’s children and sometimes leaving them too often with hired help.
Did she think she would be on TV until the kids were adults? She is clearly delusional. It’s incredible the show lasted as long as it did, she is such a nasty person. They should have been happy with the two beautiful girls they already had, and not try for so many more. She can’t seem to get it through her head that the gravy train is ending and she can’t continue the lifestyles of the rich and famous any more.
People talk as if Jon wants those kids 24/7. He doesn’t. He’s happy without the responsibilities of parenting 8 kids nonstop. His girlfriend would probably run for the hills if she had to deal with his children living in their household. Jon sees those kids as much as he wants to – about every other weekend. And, really, how could he afford them all on his salary? I’m not a Kate fan – she’s vile – and I really do feel Jon would be the better full time parent. He just doesn’t want to be the full time parent.
Well he’s gonna get a bit of reality when they start deducting child support for 8 kids out of that “simple life” pay check he receives for installing solar panels.
I’m pretty sure they already do. At any rate, I don’t know why so many posters here sneer at his current paycheque, as if one can increase his salary exponentially by simply walking up to your friendly neighbour CrackMan and say, ‘I’m Warren Buffett, bitch!’ If every single couple who divorced made identical salaries there would be no such thing as alimony. During his extended lost weekend, he turned himself into a sideshow, but once she continued on with the show, he was cut off from particular revenue source. What she earned independently couldn’t bear the mark of his influence, right? So if the money’s gone, for the first few years she would have been only partially responsible. Beyond that point, you can’t tell people how to spend their own money without lawyers present. Look at her new two-seater purchased simultaneously with claims of financial insolvency, what about that isn’t myopic and disingenuous?
So, after some appalling behaviour, much involving his kids’ money (if that’s one-sided, I’m a giant walnut, right? It takes a village to piss away your offspring’s fortunes) and hideous fashion, we’ve established that the biggest crime is that he’s isn’t currently a tycoon. Since I hope his stealing days are behind him, how do we suppose he’s to become a ‘just more money-wantee’? A career in reality television is pretty lucrative. And I’m sure the qualifications required to get watched translate into the money sector with just as bountiful rewards. Look at how much longevity, respect and certainly not enervation surrounds the career of one David Blaine, didn’t you love him, Internet? I did, and piercingly, too.
He’s screwed up a lot, there is no reason for me to even want to deny that and I have the worst father ever, so I’m not transferring and was never prone to sentimentality. But, I do think that if the places were switched, she would get more sympathy because by default, mothers get more sympathy than fathers. I also don’t think it’s fair to denounce him as a human being because his new tax bracket doesn’t meet your standards. I think he’s dumb and not entirely lazy, but all of Kate’s fancy cash that people seem to love came from even more years of the exploitation so decried, so what’s the story, there? Maybe it doesn’t pay wads of greasy cash, but he’s currently got a job which more than I can say for St. Haircut of Pizza.
Wow, he got fat.
HE NEEDS TO LOSE WEIGHT. He looks disgusting.
Whoa, what happened to Jon? He wasn’t that chunky before. 😮
He actually made sense. He always was the sensible and loving parent but Kate cut him down and out along with the kids. She psychologically/verbally abused him and he fed into her harmful words and actions to the point he became what she said he was.
To all the people that support Kate and say Jon is scum and lazy and a cheater, look at the very first year and compare that to the last two years Jon was on the show. Kate totally turned in to “Mommie Dearest” both physically and verbally in the way she treated Jon and the children.
A mother who treats her children that way and says such things to them is verbally and psychologically abusing them. Even when the kids were toddlers she would say things like if they messed up their clothes or diapers she would leave them. It’s all in the show archives. And the way Kate treated her own family? Then the last episodes of the show, especially when they went to Alaska and the pizza incident just show how badly Kate has gone off her rocker and how dysfunctional things are.
Those kids are going to be so messed up in later years. Kate is so whacked out, I really have no words for what or who she is.
Famewhores are so sad.
