I found it kinda strange that they did their interviews separately. I know they did that a bit last (?) season because they were really busy with the kids (or some such reason), but it seemed REALLY obvious here. Made it feel like they were already divorced or something.
Kate is a TRAINWRECK of a human being. First we had “Octo-Mom”, now we have “Monster-Mom”.
I agree with some of the other comments, it is incredibly irresponsible of TLC to continue with this show in light of what has been going on lately. I think they should stop immediately. There are 8 beautiful children who hang in the balance, John, Kate, and TLC would all do well to remember that. I bet when their kids are older they really will resent their parents behaving in this manner because with all the madia coverage this will haunt those 8 children forever.
Yeah, everything is for the kids,you mean everything is for Kate!!!!!! Quit dressing those kids alike already, they’re individuals. It’s just not cute anymore. She just loves the money, in fact she’s greedy to a point that it’s sickening. Raise your kids the way others do, stop pimping them out! Get your child Madie some help – she’s beginning to be a lot like you Kate. Kids have to learn they can’t have everything! Quit begging people to send gifts. Why don’t you speak with your parents kate? Why does everyone dislike you including your own husband?
I watched this show from the beginning, and as the show progressed, Kate got worse and worse. I kinda liked her at first, but now I can’t even stand to watch her. She treats Jon like crap and I feel bad for her kids! They have so many strict rules, it’s like they can’t enjoy being young and carefree.
How pathetic…these idiots should have known what they were getting themselves into..but money sure is showing them. Poor kids…
This show should have ended after season 1. These stories will live on the Internet for years, and I’m sure the older girls are already hearing rumours from other school kids. Let’s hope they’ve banked some money. I read that Kate said people want to see the little ones grow up. Fine, end it now and do a follow up in 10 years.
I’ve never watched the show and only know of it from clips on The Soup. I just read an interview with the mom in People magazine and she comes across as such an opportunistic, self absorbed shrew. She is complaining about the choices he makes – when she isn’t around. She’s on tour and this and that and it sounds like she’s never home. Sorry, but he probably, if given the choice would not have signed up to be a single parent to 8 children. Maybe she should stay home a little more often and co-parent these kids she paid to have.
PS – I hate that he says that their life is about “God” – maybe if they had listened to God in the first place they wouldn’t be in this mess. It always cracks me up when these people who have paid a ton of money to force their body to make a baby say “it’s a miracle” – uh, not really. You paid medical professionals a lot of money to create these children in a lab and then forced yoru body to do what God didn’t intend. Oh well, in this case they def got what they paid for.
The two of them can sleep with all of READING for ALL I care. TLC and J&K are nothing but self promoters while perpetrating a fruad to the American TV viewing public ALL OFF THE BACKS OF LITTLE CHILDREN FOR MONEY!
I WILL NOT WATCH THE TotallyLecherousChannel AND THEIR KON ARTISTS.
It’s all the media’s fault. Just leave this family alone.
These people are truly pathetic. Kate is whoring out the kids…she might as well dress them up and troll out on the streets with them. They will all end up in therapy. Hopefully she can earn enough money to fix that awful hair. She is in total denial about everything.
I will not watch anymore because they have turned me off. This family is now dirty no matter how TLC spins it. Don’t buy into their crap. Be smarter than they give us credit for. TLC and the Gosselins will only profit more. DON’T WATCH.
Yeah, it’s the media’s fault that Jon & Kate decided to exploit their kids for cash. Uh huh. Right.
Idiot.
R U kidding me -
1 TLC is going to spin it and there will be no honest answers. Sit them both down in front of somebody that will ask the real questions.
2 The season final of “24″ is on at the same time. TLC you lose.
