Jon Gosselin ordered to return $180,000 within 2 weeks

Jon Gosselin

You know what makes me happier than bright shiny new babies or soft bouncy little puppies? Justice. Hard-ass, throw-the-book-at-em justice. And that’s exactly what Jon Gosselin got today. Earlier he and soon-to-be e-wife Kate were in court, and the only word that was released was that the hearing was brief and they’re both due back in court in two weeks. The hearing was over the $230,000 Jon took out of their joint accounts without permission, which he has totally denied even though every little withdrawal has been completely and accurately documented. Now we have word on exactly what went down – and it’s good. Really good. Jon has to pay back $180,000 pronto. By the next hearing – which gives him only thirteen days to come up with the money. Otherwise he’ll be held in contempt. Yippee!

Jon Gosselin has been ordered to return $180,000 in marital funds, which were removed in violation of an arbitrator’s order.

According to Kate’s lawyer, Mark Momjian, “The remaining sum of $55,000, which Ms. Gosselin used for household bills and expenses relating to the children, will be subject to further determination by the arbitrator at a later date.”

Jon is required to repay the loot by October 26 — the next hearing — or appear before the judge for a contempt proceeding.

The judge also ordered Kate to provide an accounting of past expenses — also due by Oct. 26.

Kate says, “As difficult as this has been for me, I am pleased that the Court has ruled fairly on behalf of myself and my children. Now that this matter has been ruled on, I look forward to returning to private arbitration, as we have agreed to do, to resolve any remaining issues.”

Party up in here! I love it when sucky things happen to sucky people. And that’s the best way to describe Jon Gosselin. How’s Jon going to come up with $180,000 in thirteen days? What do you think his Ed Hardy collection is worth? I’m assuming he doesn’t have the money anymore, with the way he’s been living. And remember, the guy’s got eight little children. He’s very much taking food out of his kids’ mouths so he can bum around the south of France with women of questionable… well everything. Kate requested that Jon be forced to sell his luxury cars, which I think is a fantastic idea. And then I think he should be forced to drive a nice sensible soccer dad car. A Honda Odyssey. At least 10 years old, so there’s no hookup for his iPod.

Wouldn’t it be lovely if this divorce is about to wrap up?

Here’s are Jon and Kate arriving at court this morning in Norristown, Pennsylvania. Images thanks to INF Photo.

    This is better than a soap opera. I just love it. Justice was definatley done here today. Too many scum bags think they can get away with doing stupid stuff all the time.

    At least Kate as a good head on her shoulders and the sense to provide for her children at present and in the future.

    I can’t wait to see hailey dump him when she realises that he’s gonna be broke and there will be no more trips and fancy cars and clothes. LMAO!!!!

  2. Firestarter says:

    HAHA! Smug SOB!

    I just want to punch him!

  3. thedomesticgoddess says:

    Oh brother. Yep slam Jon. Make his life miserable. Will that make everyone feel better? Will that take away Kate’s part in this? If nothing else, soon he won’t be married to her anymore. Thank god. The perfect Mom thing is old. She’s still nasty and vile. She will go to any length to make Jon look bad (not that he does such a bad job of it himself), and all because he stood up to her. She is just vile. Not pro Jon as much as I am anti Kate.

  4. MSat says:

    This is exactly what happened in my case. But my ex had used the money to buy new furniture and a motorcycle so he was screwed. It was a great day.

  5. yellowwalls says:

    Both of them are stealing from thier children, just to try to make the spouse look bad. I thought it was only Jon who took money and she only had $1000 left. But according to this, now Kate’s attorney said that she used $55k! Didn’t Kate and her attorney say that Jon took $220,000? Why is it now, it’s only 180k? Both these people are liars and losers.

  6. thedomesticgoddess says:

    There must be something else going on here. And why wasn’t Kate prepared with her list of expenses for this arbitration? As for Kate “private arbitration”? Whatever! You go on national tv to say he stole from you, yet it appears you’ve been stealing from the cookie jar as well. Hmm… for someone who is as “ocd” as Kate about money .. hmm. Doesn’t change a thing for me. Jon’s in need of help, and I hope he gets that. As for Kate, she is still vile. Her mission is to lambast Jon as much as she can get away with, and I still say “woman scorned”. She can’t stand the thought of Jon not being there as her slave, standing his ground and not wanting to return to her. Jon has said nary a bad word (except the for “I despise her” bit) about Kate, and he made a good point – she doesn’t speak from her heart … unless of course we’re talking about the one attached to the money machine. I only wish that Jon would simply stop being so public about it all, focus on his kids, and let Kate eventually hang herself. She is abusive, rude, ungrateful, sad and bitter. She stole the credit for a book she only ghost wrote and is collecting the profits of same. How anyone can say that is ok is beyond me. Kate is also trying to erase all the details of the past, in that Jon was a good father, having done alot of the work that she was just oh too tired to do! He was working a full time job as well as catering to her, and looking after his children at night. Not until he left her, did he all of a sudden become someone she didn’t know. Um, you mean you weren’t listening to him and seeing the signs of marital troubles Kate? Gee why is that? If she had treated Jon with respect, appreciated him as a man and a father, he would never have left. How is that all was ok til he said NO more. At the end of Season 4, you could see the wheels turning in her head as to how she was going to convince Jon to carry on with the next season. He’d already had enough at that point, stated as much, but nope .. Kate would not listen to him. She could have compromised and said hey, you know what? You’re right. Let’s take a year off and just focus on our lives for awhile. Nope, she just wants the money. I am still waiting to see how much she has put aside for the children. If as she says, they are well taken of for the future, then who freaking cares what he does or she does for that matter? Neither one of them should have custody of the children at this time in any event. Why no one has stepped in and investigated this is beyond me.

  7. crash2GO2 says:

    But, but but but…you mean he lied? NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  8. lucy says:

    I can’t stand either one, but glad he has to pay the money back since it clearly was against the rules. What a tool.

  9. Shari Brock says:

    Ouch! Sucks to be him, but he should have known this was coming. It does serve him right, though. If you choose have children, you have responsibility.

  10. Westender says:

    I have heard that Kate G. has “projects” that provide a source of income, but what exactly does Jon do? How is he paying for this lifestyle of his? Even before the whole business with the bank it seemed he was being Mr. Jetset

  11. birdie says:

    I see Jon Gosselin’s next girlfriend is back to her old nonsensical rants.

  12. UrbanRube says:

    “I’m assuming he doesn’t have the money anymore, with the way he’s been living.”
    Sounds from other sites as if he’s been smoking some of it.

  13. Aubrey says:

    Ugh I am so over these two worthless humans! Of course he is a douche and needs to return that crazy amt. of money… but hello Kate was just all over national television bashing him for the $231,000 he took leaving her 1,000. Holy LIE, her taking $55k for bills and whatnot is a lot. In that short amount of time there is no way she needed that much for bills. If so, they have some major financial problems.

  14. Just a Poster says:

    Birdie! ROFLMAO!!

  15. mel says:

    @Lucy ditto. I wish they would go away. I feel sorry for those kids.

  16. Goddess711 says:

    Y’know, she wasn’t always a bitch. He fell in love with her and married her, to hear him tell it, it was because she was “beautiful” and “had direction, not like the usual girls (he) dated.” Y’all gotta wise up to reality – and those of us who have been there & done that KNOW, Kate’s had to step up to the plate and it’s gawd-awful frustrating realising you’ve married a useless lump who has essentially retreated into becoming another child. She’s no-nonsense, no bullshit and played this whole game to perfection, sat back and watched this a–hole’s sorry, public decline. Don’t worry, he’ll have to replace the rest of it after the arbitrator has adequate time to look over everything. She’s not the one who has to sell her collection of toys because she’s RESPONSIBLE and hasn’t gone money nuts.
    So sayeth me! LOL!

  17. Obvious says:

    So Kate lied? She accused him of taking 230,000 but he only took 180,00 and she spent the rest? (yes i know it was on the kids and bills) and then proceeded to accuse him of taking it?

    thedomesticgoddess i agree. i’m not team anyone (except for kids) but I think Kate brought it on herself, and apart form him becoming douche-mcdouche in dating other woman publicly and such right after the split he hasn’t done anything horrific or sad anything horrific really. she’s always trying to crucify him.

    I feel bad for the kids. and while i was starting to feel sympathy for kate this latest lie just makes me roll my eyes and go back to despising them both.

  18. Firestarter says:

    The $55 k in ? was used by Kate for household and children’s expenses, and that is why she was given additional time to produce a list of what the money was spent on. John has done nothing as far as trying to shoulder the day to day expenses, so Kate, allegedly, has used that money, which was for those things, to pay the bills. How does anyone think the family lives? Someone has to use the money to pay the bills, and we know Jon sure as f#$@ worry about that.

  19. Maritza says:

    Kate is extremely organized, I bet she has a receipt for everything she has bought and will be able to present proof of her expenses. As for Jon I bet part of the $55,000 he spent was on the ATV and laptop although I doubt that cost that much.

  20. bros says:

    domesticgoddess, yes, absolutely right. both of these people are gross, but kate is the slimiest. and ps. firestarter, kate does not do anything to shoulder the day to day expenses. her kids do that for her.

  21. Obvious says:

    @Maritza they did not say he spent it. they said he only took 180,00 and she took 55,000 meaning she said he stole money she actually spent-whether or not for bills and kids-she is once again trying to crucify him and I’m sick of it. not that he’s a good guy or anything but she is hell bent on ruining his image (with his help albeit) with his kids and the world.

  22. Firestarter says:

    @Bros- Well who the heck is making sure the bills are paid and the children are fed? Sure as heck isn’t Jon, when he is zooming around to Vegas, S.Beach, Manhattan, etc. That woman at least takes care of them, and frankly, those kids are better off with her than that idiot slug of a father they have.

    She is ruining his image? Sorry Obvious, but he did that all on his own. People were (myself included) way more sympathetic and on his side before the douche bag started to run around like a drunken frat boy, going from tramp to tramp, Ed Hardy party to Ed Hardy party every week, hanging out with people like Michael Lohan and a druggie girlfriend. Seems to me he didn’t need Kate to undermine him as he did it himself. Before his antics, people hated her, now, people hate him more. I haven’t noticed the dragon lady Kate doing those things. At least she isn’t out partying and ignoring her kids in favor of a trip to the Riviera.

  23. samantha says:

    Somebody needs to put a bullet in Jon’s brain ASAP! Consider it a public service. He is so ugly, inside and outside, I don’t know how Kate was able to stand it. Jon’s corpulent, ugly, feckless and pusillanimous. He’s not much of a man, if you ask me. No wonder Kate walked all over him. Jon doesn’t deserve any other form of treatment.

    “Kate plus 9” sounds like an felicitous name for the series. Jon’s nothing but an overgrown, fat, ugly fratboy, masquerading as a man. Go Kate! Make Jon’s life a living hell!

  24. Mave says:

    No excuse for Jon, his terrible friends probably talked him into taking it out and spending on them. You call your new girlfriend upgrading from Kate…I think not. He needs help big time. What a sad sad soul.

  25. Nik says:

    @thedomestic: Jon, is that you?

  26. HarbinsMom says:

    Kate isn’t perfect, but she’s not responsible for Jon’s bad behavior. If he had such a problem with her treatment of him, then why didn’t he talk to her about it instead of hitting the bars and acting like the idiot he is. Maybe Kate seemed controlling because she had to take control because Jon has none. She is in charge of the finances, because clearly he doesn’t have the mental capacity to take care of them. He’s spending money like water, so one of them has to take control. Kate’s a witch because Jon was passive in the marriage….please. Give me a break. Jon spent last week in LA playing to the press and wanting people to take pity on him. He is such a hypocrite. He spouts off about wanting the kids off the TV program, but he allows Mady and Cara’s birthday to be filmed with him around. This is all about him. If he’s involved, then they can be filmed, but if he’s not getting paid, then they’re off. This guy is scum and I cannot believe that people actually believe his garbage.

  27. casey says:

    Does Kate have to give back her implants?

  28. Goddess711 says:

    How much do you think it costs to have hydro, a/c, heat, water etc in a million dollar home? What do you think their mortgage is costing a month? How much do you think security, groundskeepers and nannies are costing? Nah, you’re right, kids don’t grow and need new clothes and heck, y’feed ’em once a week, that’s good enough.
    Think large scale bills, rub a few brain cells together and think large scale bills, and if the mortgage/ pre-paid expenses that come out monthly are from that account 55ks is easily accounted for AND probably bounced screwing up her credit rating (hopefully his too!). And they’ve all been paid up to date thanks to Kate taking care of every freakin detail and anybody who thinks she likes it that way needs to give themself a whack upside the head. She HAD to develop into who you bitch about today. When they were choosing sides, she got RESPONSIBLITY and she’s doing a damn fine job of it. Those children lack for nothing except a responsible, loving father who could keep his dick at home and help out without having to be given direction.

  29. Firestarter says:

    Does Jon have to give back his packs of Marlboros, Ed Hardy wear and fat stomach?

  30. pebbles says:

    yeah, but ……sorry, I still have a deep hatred of Kate.

  31. gg says:

    This is old hat stuff – most nouveau riche divorces are like this with both sides screwing and stealing from each other. Nothing new here folks.

  32. elle em says:

    Dear Goddess711,
    Finally! Someone with a brain who sees it as it is. Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    I cannot wait until his “soul mate” aka “best friend” aka “I wanna be famous no matter who’s pants I get into”
    tells us all – FOR MONEY – what we really don’t want to hear.
    I am so embarrased for his kids!

  33. Noelle says:

    He has to return the $180,000 because $20,000 of it was his “pay”.

    They both need to be quiet and get those children off of tv. Enough.

  34. Squirtle says:

    Yay! I’m glad he got what he deserved!

  35. Eileen Yover says:

    For the love of GOD, will everyone quit commenting on this freakshow so people will stop making them think they are relevant by photographing them and having them talk in detail about their pathetic lives? This is getting Octomom Crazy.
    Nothing to see here people, move along…

  36. Monica says:

    They making him out to be the bad person. She is a bigger liar than him.

  37. Firestarter says:

    How is she a bigger liar than he is? They are both liars and the sad fact is, out of the two, she is a far better parent to those children than he is. He didn’t take that money because he wanted it for the kids, he took it to be a dirty, low down scum bag, thinking that he calls all the shots. He is pathetic and it is pathetic that people actually feel sorry for this troll of a man. Who cares if she is a bitch, she is a bitch who was smart enough to turn her situation into a money making proposition. Like another poster said, if he were in charge of the finances and responsibilities this whole time, they would be living in poverty, out on the street. He is a brainless loser, and if he was so miserable all this time, be a man and leave. Like her, he loved the money and was too greedy to leave and now he reaps what he sows!~

  38. Judy says:

    So Kate (who can’t pay her bills) and her team of three different attorneys from three separate law firms won today. What TOTAL B.S.!!! I woke up early this morning (5:30 a.m) and was flipping channels when I stumbled on an old Jon and Kate episode. In that episode alone, she told him he was fat and got him enrolled in a weight program–not for his health but for her own ego. In the episode, he mentioned that he had already gotten hair plugs “for her,” and while they were doing their interview, she tapped his chin and said she hoped he could get rid of the double chin, as well. He said, “She just wants me to look the way I looked when we first got married.” Everytime he tried to open his mouth to answer questions during the interview process, he’d get two words out and she would cut in and talk over him. He just took a deep breath and sighed liked he’d been whipped. I HATE THAT BITCH.

  39. Squirtle says:

    Yeah exactly Judy! He has no balls to stand up for himself, who’s the more pathetic one? Just because someone is being a bitch to you doesn’t mean you have to sit there an take it with a smile on your face! Come on now! Why do we feel sorry for this pathetic moron!?!

  40. Jen says:

    From what I understand, he did take approximately 230k. But they said 55k of that was for “expenses,” so he has to return the remaining 180k left from the 230k he took.

    Wow, 55k in expenses? Kids’ clothes and food sure have gotten expensive!

  41. elvisgrace says:

    @thedomestic Back away from the internet, Hailey.

    Please, please God, let Nancy Grace smack his ass down for lying over and over that he had only removed $22K.
    No doubt Kate will have a very thorough expense breakdown..she is VERY anal retentive, which Jon should have known beforehand, and instead of running around claiming a single loan transaction receipt validated his claim.
    As to the $55K, I think Jon did take the full $230K, but was able to demonstrate that $55K was used for his living expenses, and that’s why he only has to pay the other $180K.

  42. Firestarter says:

    Well I guess when you have a mortgage on a big house, 8 kids, insurance, auto payments, utilities, groceries, etc, 55k is in the realm of possibilities when you live like that.

  43. bros says:

    yah right firestarter. why are you trying to defend kate to the death? pretending that there is anything normal about what kate does, pretending she is sitting at home going over the checkbook, buying groceries and putting dinner on the table-what a joke! these people are a mini-corporation. their accountant deals with the bills, the nannies get kids dressed, and the cook makes dinner. kate is back and forth across the country promoting herself with her fake boobs and cantankerous bitchiness for shows and books and celeb charity appearances. she parents when the cameras are on. aside from that she has an army of staff, paid for by her kids’ labor.

  44. Lauren says:

    What a nightmare for their lovely children. Their expenses are outrageous-they need some financial guidance from the Duggar family – they have 18 children, are still together & aren’t selfish idiots!

  45. Judy says:

    Squirtle, I feel sorry for him because I have followed this extensively. I’m not handing out any Boy Scout badges to Jon, but I almost understand his sleazey behavior, and at least it’s out there…unlike pious, holier-than-thou, lying, manipulative Kate who is sleeping with her MARRIED bodyguard. She’s a fraud and a liar. Kate can’t get along with her own mother or brother. Every single thing she does is calculated to promote Kate. And I agree with Domestic Goddess that her book was done by a ghost writer and she took credit for it. Everything about her is BOGUS. Those little children are precious…they deserve so much better.

  46. Firestarter says:

    Bros- I am just not that into getting in an internet pissing match with you.

    You are right, Jon is a stud and a great father. Have a nice day! Kepp up the good fight Jon, er, I mean Bros.

  47. piedlourde says:

    I recall one of Joel McHale’s monologues on “The Soup” a few weeks back — he quipped something along the lines of “isn’t it weird we rooted for this guy before” followed by a bewildered grin.
    Man, everybody was Team Jon all the way, remember that? Time makes fools of us all, eh?

  48. bros says:

    i havent said one word to defend jon. its not an either or thing. and im not trying to have a fight with you.

  49. Judy says:

    Firestarter, nice try, but Bros is NOT Jon. He knows how to spell and uses grammar correctly, including the proper use of possessive. Jon obviously can’t spell cat. Bros is spot on in his assessment of Kate, the imposter.

  50. Squirtle says:

    piedlourde: LOL!! I loooove Joel McHale! He is amazing and always right on spot about Jon & Kate; even back before they began this whole media nightmare frenzy!

  51. thedomesticgoddess says:

    The reality is this: they had 8 (eight) children. What other parents (aside from the Duggars) do you know that get paid to raise their children. Jon and Kate were paid to do what they are supposed to do anyway. Raise their children. I am not going to give either one kudos for doing the job they were supposed to do in the first place. Up until Jon stopped the show, both Jon and Kate were being paid for doing the show, although it was supposedly about the kids. So why do people keep jumping up and down about how did Jon earn his money? Doing the show. How do you think they earned the money to buy that bloody house? Jon owns half of it. Jon pays support as stated, which she is also to be paying and apparently hasn’t. As for the custody arrangements, why argue about that? They came to their own agreement about who has the kids and who doesn’t. That’s between them, and from what I’ve heard/read/watched, there have been no complaints from either of them about that … except that Kate wanted to change the arrangements for the birthday. If you’ve watched the show, then there can be no argument that Jon worked at raising his children. Kate wanted to be a stay at home mother and that is what she got, while Jon worked both in and out of the home. Kate had alot of free help so I have no sympathy for her. Kate is just a whiner. Whine whine whine. But, now that Jon doesn’t want to be a part of the drama with her as his wife, suddenly she is the high road saint? Not bloody likely. If, as she says she is taking the high road, why then go public with what Jon did? and then only to be told that she also has to replace 55,000? There are details that none of us are hearing about, though I think Jon was trying to get some of that out. Unfortunately, Jon is not as adept as Kate at spinning the truth. That doesn’t make him a bad person or father when one looks at the entire number of years that he has been in that marriage and as a father.

  52. Sunnyjyl says:

    Dweeb.

  53. karen says:

    I think arguing which one is worse is like asking yourself what would you rather have–chylamidia or ghonorrhea? (I can’t spell). They are both diseases you want to get rid of ASAP!

  54. Firestarter says:

    Bros- It’s cool. I am not mad. I really just have no intention of debating who is worse. Not worth me getting my or anyone’s feather’s in a ruffle.

  55. thedomesticgoddess says:

    Has no one wondered why their other home hasn’t sold? I find that very odd. Re: Kate being the responsible one. Coughcough. In many households, one or the other handles the finances. If you have ever watched the show, she in one episode says to Jon that she wishes he would do more, whereupon he responded that he would be happy to except that she is never happy. She then declares that she is the only one who can do things right, and so she wants the control. She admits it on television folks. As for Jon being a wimp, when did a man being a gentleman, a gentle soul who wasn’t raised to be rude to a woman, or hit her back become a wimp? Towards the end, Jon started to answer back, stop her from interrupting and one could see that things were beginning to shift. So none of what’s happening is really that big a surprise is it? I feel badly for all of them, that in their pain, neither one of these “adults” can see the forest for the trees. The children were/are the “stars”. Jon and Kate shouldn’t be getting stars for being parents. What alot of rot. If we are going to grade them on being parents, then I think they’ve done a good job. The kids are polite, seemingly happy (as kids can be during a divorce albeit so public a one) and engaging. I have no doubts that these kids will be fine, and Mady will be the one who straightens them out. She’s always seen the truth, which is why Kate is always so quick to shut her up.
    But when you don’t accept that you, by nature, can’t have children, force nature to do what it wasn’t meant to do, and then end up with 8 kids, the only people I really end up rooting for are the children. Jon and Kate will survive all of this. I certainly don’t wish either of them poverty. They did their job for four seasons. Jon finally woke up and realised just how famous he really is (and we did that folks by watching their show, attending their “donation” talks in churches, paying to see Kate yabber on, buying
    “her” books), he began to question just how much he wanted this. He’s not handling things well, granted. But to say that he wasn’t a good parent or a good husband is bollocks. You can’t base opinion on the past several months. As for Kate, I’ll give her this. She has never changed her rude ways, she continues to act like she is better than everyone else, she continues to promote a book that she didn’t write and continues to reap the profits from same. Gee, what ever happened to Bob and Beth Carson? Surely don’t see them out there standing up for Kate (given that Beth was alledgedly Kate’s best friend, that seems very odd). How is that Jon remains in contact with his family, yet Kate does not with hers? Kate is a fraud. It’s that simple. And yes, I have written to TLC. They are just as scummy for continuing to promote this family as being one that we should all be taking lessons from? Gag. All I can think of right now are little bits from the show .. .Jon having to fill the cars up with gas because “Kate NEVER does that… don’t husbands do that for their wives?” Um no Kate, if you use it up you refill it. Jon being asked directly many times, questions that she automatically just raises her voice to overtalk him, tell him he’s wrong … it just goes on and on. Kate is no freaking saint people. She’s just a sad and bitter woman, who thrives on lying and making others look bad so that she looks good. You’ll never convince me otherwise.

  56. amanda says:

    I’d like to know just what she spent that $55,000 on in the span of in just a few WEEKS. The kids and the household bills? Hmmm, I wonder what kind of creative accounting conjured that up.

  57. Diwali6 says:

    Can someone teach KG how to dress? The pink, the brown, the grey and black are burning my eyes! Payless plastic purse too!

    BTW, when the hell did she get that rack? Was it paid for from the join account?

  58. thedomesticgoddess says:

    lol … the brown the pink …hahaha. What ever happened to the days where she was so happy to get a bag that she had been wanting for so long, that Jon bought for her? Hmm … money? fame? I guess hey? I did laugh when the plastic surgeon, who had so generously at the behest of his wife, donated his time and skill to help her get rid of the “pooch”. She tried to push it by asking for a breast life (ungrateful cow) and he simply told her to get a new bra! Loved that. I think that was when I began to see that Kate wasn’t all that she was putting out there. Ironic now that Jon is going out with the daughter and we haven’t heard a peep from the parents as to how nice Kate is yadda yadda. There are people out there who know far more than any of us about Kate and her ways. Kate probably threatened to sue them using the three law firms that she has – hmmm who’s paying for those Kate? Funny how before the breast enhancement she wasn’t going around showing off in bikini(s)… speaking of which, how many bikinis does one mother need? I saw three different ones… hmm … feeling a tad insecure there Kate?

  59. thedomesticgoddess says:

    Perhaps once Jon has a lawyer that knows what he’s doing JOn should go after Kate for shared profits from both of the books “she” wrote, given that without him, there would be no kids and therefore no books. And what happened to going to church there Kate? or is that only when they have their wallets out? Jon was silly to take that money but Kate is just an outright witch for making it public in the first place. She could have handled it privately but noooo …. she has to play up her victim role. Yuck. Along with Jon and the kids, I think all of us who so faithfully watched their show got good and royally rooked. If it weren’t for Jon’s father, they would have never had afforded their first house. But now that Kate has everything she wants, excluding her slave husband, she should just shut up and go away. I surely hope she isn’t on TV in any capacity … she’s got nothing important to say.

    Something tells me we are getting close to the release of a Jon Gosselin sex tape. $10 says he just lies there.

  61. Shannon says:

    Keep in mind that these people employ at least three full time nannies. Those three nannies probably make at least minimum wage. Assuming a work day is 7 hours and the nannies make $6.50 an hour, with 52 weeks in a year (I’ll give them each a month off per year total, so 48 weeks), and they normally work Mon-Fri… That’ $10,920 per nanny per year, with a total of $32,760 per year for childcare. That’s a lot of money, and it is only for one part of their lives.

  62. Shay says:

    Jon can say he didn’t take the money all he wants but if the court requests transaction records then they’ll tell the black and white truth. Same goes for Kate but it seems they already know she took 55,000 they just need an accounting of it.

  63. Ron says:

    No one has had to make Jon look bad. He has done that all by himself. Everyone knew from the show that Kate was a shrew and kinda felt bad for Jon. But no wonder she was a shrew with that turd hanging around her neck. Jon has assumed the thown of King Douche, that must be a relief for Spencer Tw*t.

    They’re both using money to harm each other. She calls the police on Jon and they tell her to leave. He doesn’t want her back, stated it publicly, which probably embarrassed the heck out of her, and this is how she chose to deal with it. Make a big deal of this, so no one will pay attention to what she’s doing. MMM coincidence … I think not.

    He fights back (like many other ex’s have done regardless of gender) in a less than intelligent manner. She again plays victim except this time again she is found to also have played a part in the drama.

    What will she think of next?

    Wow, he has really bad facial bone structure. The sunglasses blocking his pretty, exotic eyes just give him away.

  66. Merridith says:

    I love this story. LOL ROFL.
    Guess Jon will be busy selling his crap for the next week or two. LOL

  67. thedomesticgoddess says:

    Lol … with so many other celebrities making a hash out of their lives, this is almost boring now. With Michael Jackson’s kids now slated for a new reality show (along with the brothers who all of a sudden have a “career”), or Lindsay Lohan apparently close to “suicide” … the Gosselins have nothing. Just another middle class couple thinking they’d made the big time, hangerson glomming onto them to make as much money as they can before the public figures out they really aren’t real at all…. In twenty years we’ll be reading stories about “do you remember when”?. Jon needs to use his freedom (not sure how free one is with 8 kids) appropriately, and stop talking to the stupid news magazines that do not have his interests at heart, and Kate well… her day will come.

    FIRESTARTER – how nice to read someone post concise, coherent and formidable comments. You get it!

    The reality is Jon is a child, Kate had to treat him as such. She took/takes care of the ‘real world’ responsibilities of parenting. Whilst Jon comes and goes as he pleases and behaves in a completely disgusting way, his behavior continues to sink to lower and lower depths.

    Honestly, I think the looney bin let domestic out of her cage. 10 rants in a row? And still not a single one that makes any sense at all… We all get it. You and Jon are soul mates. I’m sure when Hailey’s done she’ll pass him off to you.

  69. thedomesticgoddess says:

    Lol .. no one is as douchy as Spencer Pratt … oh wait … the Jackson brothers may be in contention for that title! Jon just isn’t calculating enough.

    Now, going back to reading about “Adopt a Shelter Dog Month”:

    http://www.aspca.org/adoption/adopt-a-shelter-dog-month/

    Fortunately for the former Gosselin dogs, they are being well cared for. Not so so many other dogs. No offense to the breeders but there are alot of dogs out there who need to be loved, sitting in these shelters. Hopefully this campaign will help find homes for some of them.

    Just something other than the Gosselin divorce petty fallout 🙂
