Are they split? With the season five premiere of Jon 7 Kate Plus 8 it’s clear that Jon and Kate Gosselin’s marriage is under a microscope. Did Jon move out for good and how will the show handle it? Many believe that a split will move ratings even higher as viewers get a dose of Celegbrity tabloid each week.
Jon and Kate Plus 8 Split, Why Jon Gosselin Is Moving Out
According to an in touch weekly magazine report a TLC insider reveals that Jon may not be in the picture much longer. “Producers have begun looking for apartments that are camera-crew friendly so that Jon can move out (whether he wants to or not),” says the insider.

Since at least early February Jon has been spending time in Huntington, Pa., near where his mom lives. That’s a full three hours away from the home he shares with Kate. But he began spending more time at home after rumors surfaced that he was cheating on his wife of 10 years.
Now, the 32 year old dad ,who denies having an affair with elementary school teacher Deanna Hummel, isn’t even trying to put on a happy face for the cameras anymore. “I can’t be myself,” he says during a testimonial that aired on the show on Monday. is that why he is moving out - or is it all for ratings for the TV SHOW?
Opinion: It has to be a bit of both, they are not getting on but the show must go on as they say. they are not going to kill the goode that lay the golden eggs now are they?
Kate Gosselin has begged TLC for two more seasons of “Jon and Kate Plus 8.” But, unlike Jon, she can’t just boss around network executives.
Jon and Kate Gosselin will have to go to marriage counseling before they get even one more season. Not surprisingly, Kate Gosselin initially screamed and refused to go to counseling, even though her marriage is being torn to shreds. Then Kate Gosselin perked up because she found out that she’d get more money. Seriously.
If you’re watching Jon and Kate Plus 8, you’d know that the new season has a lot of Kate Gosselin complaints about “her lonely new life,” even as she gets $75,000 per show to destroy her family on TV.
C’mon, Kate. She needs to drop her “lonely new life” argument and fess up. Big bucks aren’t worth a destroyed family. Just look at Jon. Kate Gosselin needs to sober up and think for a minute.
The YouTube video shows Kate Gosselin trying to defend herself -- this is before her "lonely new life" stage.
What do you thing....Personnaly I think it hits the mark, well done Tina
Now you remember when she talked about her new book and the rumors....
This is taken verbatim from a brillant TV Blogg called Television without pity , I urge to visit them once you've read this article:
After witnessing the most depressing 73 minutes of television we've ever seen in our entire lives -- i.e. the Jon & Kate Plus 8 season premiere -- earlier this week, it became clear to us and the rest of the nation that Jon and Kate Gosselin's marriage is clearly over. A sad fact, but a true one nonetheless. But just because Kate has made it very clear that she'd like to continue the show and Jon has made it very clear that he'd rather be drowning is no reason the show should end. After all, those kids aren't just going to exploit themselves! If The Hills can recast LC then Jon & Kate can certainly recast Jon. Here are a few (gender-blind 'cause it's 2009!) reality star suggestions.
1. Zoila (Flipping Out) Helpful, submissive, accustomed to working with a controlling crazy person. Not sure how well she'd do around the incessantly vomiting children (why do they vomit all the time???), but she's ideal in regard to everything else. This is probably Kate's best bet.
2. Chris Harrison (The Bachelor/Bachelorette) He's used to dealing with whiny, broken people, and from what we've seen, the Gosselin kids are probably more mature than any of the Bachelors or Bachelorettes. And it's not like he has any dignity left for Kate to take away. This is a step up for him!
3. Bear Gyrlls (Man vs. Wild) Self-explanatory. And almost as perfectly suited for taking on this family as Zoila is. Almost.
4. Mike Rowe (Dirty Jobs) He rolls around in cockroaches for a living, so it's not like he's squeamish. He could jump in when Kate's too grossed out to deal with Leah, who can vomit on cue, and the rest of them, who usually have something disgusting all over them or coming out of them.
5. Jillian Michaels (The Biggest Loser) They could team up to prepare healthy, organic meals for the kids. And all those issues with Jon being a lazy, out of shape mouth-breather who is reluctant to discipline? A thing of the past! Those kids would be like West Point grads after living in that house for a season.
6. Simon van Kempen (The Real Housewives of New York) So what if he has a creepily possessive relationship with the wife he already has? If Kate's going to choose a life of fame whoring at the expense of her family, she might as well be taught by the master. Plus we'd love to see Maddy do a number on those feral van Kempen children. And Kate do a number on Kelly Bensimon as well, for that matter.
7. Judge Judy (Judge Judy) We don't watch much of Judge Judy these days because it is no longer 1996 and the novelty has worn off a bit, but she's still quite the ball-buster. Her robes might get dirty when they take the kids out to play, but at least Kate would have someone to fight with and the kids wouldn't get away with anything anymore.
8. Ashley (Rock of Love, Charm School) First of all, she is a fantastic cook so that would be helpful. Plus she is great with kids comfortable with confrontation, and when Kate is being "Lame!" she'd helpfully let her know it. We all need a little Ashley in our lives, but Kate needs her the most.
9. Tabatha Coffey (Tabatha's Salon Takeover) Pretty much just to strap Kate down and fix that damn hair.
10. Gordon Ramsay (Hell's Kitchen) He can dish it out as well as he can take it, and he values proactivity as much as Kate does. As long as he reserved the yelling for Kate and didn't destroy the children's self esteem by calling them donkeys or donuts or something, this is a team that could run that household like the salmonella-free kitchen of Gordon's dreams. John Dory for every Gosselin! Except Jon, obviously!
Most of the finale was typical footage of the family but the last 10 minutes of the show were, by far, the most exciting.
If you’re a fan of the show, you’ve probably heard the rumors that Jon is cheating on Kate and that he’s not happy with the way things are in his family. The latter part of that sentence was evident as Jon and Kate sat on the infamous couch and poured their hearts out to America last night.
Whether or not we see Jon, Kate and their 8 children again hangs in the balance of whether or not Kate and Jon Gosselin can come to an agreement. It is extremely clear that Jon does not want to do another season but Kate does.
Jon said in last night’s episode that he always has to be Jon and Kate Plus 8 – he can never just be Jon, and that’s really hard for him to deal with. Kate pointed out that the show has allowed Jon to maintain a full time job at home but he insisted that that was not necessarily a good thing.
After being ridiculed by his wife for 4 seasons, it’s not surprising that Jon doesn’t want to spend his time at home with her.
So, will there be a Jon and Kate Plus 8 Season 5? Of course there is too much at stake for all of the familly.
I am pretty sure TLC is willing to pay big bucks for the Gosselin familly stay on TV.
Good news for fans is that Kate usually gets her way – so there will be another season.
Do you think Jon is right to want to stop the show (after all, it might save his family) or do you think Kate is right to want to keep going (the show can make them a lot of money and help their kids in the future)?
“I am thinking this possibly could be our last family picture together.” “I don’t know… parents of multiples have, like, triple the divorce rate, and I was thinking we were gonna beat that. I don’t know if I can say that anymore. Very swiftly, we turned into two different people, and that’s just hard. I’ve tried for six months to figure out what the problem is, or remedy the problem. It’s so complicated.”
Meanwhile Kate has confessed to her fans:
“When asked how he would feel if roles were reversed and he were the one traveling, his resentment is clear.” “Slowly, I’ve seen him almost resent the duties [of being a parent],” Kate told the camera on Monday night. “I know it’s a lot to take care of eight kids. I’m traveling a lot, he’s frustrated a lot. I think he’s angry at me. He doesn’t really feel great about me.” “It’s a lo “I would be lying if I sat here and said, ‘Oh, I’m handing it great.’ It’s not fine.”
You didn't have to be a couples therapist to see the Gosselin marriage was under strain on Monday night's season premiere of TLC's Jon & Kate Plus 8.
The embattled duo arrived separately for their sextuplets' fifth birthday party and barely spoke during the festivities.
Not a big shock -- between the daily challenges of caring for eight kids, they have to deal with allegations of cheating and a supersized media onslaught.
The Gosselins -- normally filmed together -- spoke individually. Jon, who insisted he was ''being innocent and hanging out'' despite reports of an affair with a teacher, said, ``I never read a tabloid magazine until I was in one. And the first one I bought was the last one I bought.''
Meanwhile, Kate has spent a lot of time on the road, promoting her new book, Multiple Blessings. ''So he's angry with me that he's home and I'm not,'' Kate said of her husband of 10 years. ``Yet he doesn't really feel great about me, so he wants me to travel.''
This is a "day-in-the-life" show on TLC that examines the family life of a married couple, Jon and Kate Gosselin. The Gosselins are unusual in that they have 8 children, two of whom are twins, Mady and Cara, and 6 of whom are sextuplets, Alexis, Hannah, Aaden, Collin, Leah and Joel. This was originally a 2 hour special on Discovery Health. As you know season 5 as just launch , so find out for your selves what has happened to the Twins and the Sextuplets!
