Jon and Kate Plus 8 Official Thread - Part 5

What happened to Jon being worried about his kids "googling" him?

Jon & Kate (Jon or Kate?) have PR people. TLC has PR people. I have NO doubt there are blog/board readers taking the temperature of how Jon & Kate play out in public. There have been many times where something was mentioned on a blog or board, and a short period of time passes, and it's addressed. We've made jokes on this thread that someone reads this thread, and then "out of the blue" Jon or Kate shows up doing said thing mentioned here.

IMO, the show's "people" have read on the internet that people are concerned that the children will google themselves or their parents and what will happen then? And the PR team tells Jon to use that as an excuse. It's what people want to hear.

There's nothing real about this reality. It's all a series of scripted moments, now.
 
We don't really know anything about what he's doing as a dad. Except for the July 4th pictures (when Kate was also there), it doesn't seem like he spends his time with his kids on the front lawn. :rotfl:

sure he did. there have been a lot of pics of Jon with the children since the paps started following them. all in the front of the house. LOL

No, I mean since the separation. If they're trading off with time at the house/with the kids, there must have been some days when he had them alone. I'm assuming the paparazzi have been at the house more since the announcement, but there haven't been any new photos of him alone with the kids in front of the house, just Kate.
 
Sorry to go OT, but I just finished listening to the CD of Multiple Blessings, which was read by Kate. I saw it at the library and checked it out. I had a hard time listening to it and all of the feelings she had for Jon and her family and friends, knowing that now they are no longer in her life. If I was reading it, I don't think I could have hung with it long enough to finish it, but with it only being 4 discs I was able to finish it. Has anyone else felt the same when reading or listening to Kate's books now?
 

I haven't seen a pic of Jon with his kids at all. Instead, I keep seeing pics of him with his new woman in Tahiti or on a yacht. Sheesh.
 
I think Jon is finally happy. After years of abuse by Kate he can finally do his own thing and he's in charge. I don't agree about the way he is flaunting it with these girls, but I'm sure living with Kate was no picnic.

Really? Well then, IMHO if Kate is abusive as you say, then what is Jon doing in France so far away from the kids? Most people in abusive relationships take their children with them when they leave. If Jon really wants to play the victim and make Kate the horrible person that he can't live with, then what does it say about him for leaving the kids with her? Jon is finally happy? Who cares about him? What about his children? Seems like he feels Kate is good enough to leave them with her.

I said Kate was abusive towards Jon--verbal not physical. I never said Kate was abusive towards her children. A person can only take so much before they want out. The papers are filed, they are divorcing and the show as we know it will no longer be. Who cares about Jon--probably his children.

I wish everyone would stop getting upset with Kate for being in her own front lawn. The woman can not go ANYWHERE without being photographed and this is her HOME. My kids play in the driveway even though we have a huge backyard because they like to ride their bikes and you can not do that on grass in the backyard. Try explaining to 8 kids that they can not go into the front yard because they might get photographed! They shoudl be free to move around their yard as they please. Plus, these pictures of her in the front only represent a small amount of her time. I am sure that they are enjoying the pool and backyard some too.

So lay off the front yard thing...
 
This article just made me want to gag.

Just weeks after splitting from his wife of 10 years, Jon Gosselin is back in the spotlight with a new career and a new girlfriend. Gosselin, 32, turned up in St. Tropez hand-in-hand with Hailey Glassman, the daughter of the plastic surgeon who performed Kate’s tummy tuck in 2006. The lovebirds spent the weekend along the French Riviera so Gosselin could finalize a deal to design his own line of children’s clothing with Ed Hardy designer Christian Audigier. Glassman will also have a hand in creating the kid-friendly fashions. “She’ll have a lot of input with Christian,” Gosselin told PEOPLE of Hailey’s involvement. “And I will, too.” And don’t forget the plus eight — Gosselin tells PEOPLE that his eight kids, who spent the weekend with Kate at the family’s Pennsylvania home, will model his designs in ads for the line. Audigier tells PEOPLE that he approached Gosselin with the idea after noticing that the reality show dad often wore his tattoo-inspired T-shirts on Jon and Kate Plus Eight. “He’s huge,” says the French designer, who may also collaborate with Gosselin on a specialty motorcycle collection. “Everyone knows this family. And everyone will know our clothes. They’ll be fun, easy clothes for kids.” But it wasn’t all work for Jon and Hailey. During the extended weekend aboard Audigier’s yacht, Gosselin and Glassman lunched at the Tahiti Club before cruising around the bay in a cigarette boat. The pair also went shopping at some of the high-end boutiques around St. Tropez, including Hermes and Prada. “They couldn’t take their eyes off each other,” a friend of Audigier’s tells PEOPLE. “They looked so happy to just be together.” “I feel very relaxed,” Gosselin told PEOPLE during his weekend escape. But, “every ten minutes I keep thinking about the kids and missing them.” A reunion will come soon enough: Gosselin is due back home on Tuesday where he will start filming new episodes of the family’s TLC series, which returns from hiatus on Aug. 3. – Michelle Tan; reporting by Jen Garcia and Dana Kennedy
 
So - Jon's idea of moving on and getting a job is once again pimping his kids so that he can make money! But instead of involving Kate, this time it's his girlfriend! Makes me sick!
 
I just read this. He makes me sick. Who puts their kids in a clothing line inspired by tattoos. I have nothing against tats but this is ridiculous.

And I wonder if he needs permission from Kate prior to making the kids work. Because modeling is truly work. I'm not saying the filming isn't but modeling definitely falls into the work category without question.

It makes me sick that his girlfriend is going to be a part of a business deal that involves his kids. :headache:
 
Classy Jon, just classy :sad2:

I wonder if this is the thing that made Kate file for divorce. Maybe she decided to file so she is the custodian parent and then she has a say in what they can and can not participate in??? I'm not sure if it works that way or not. I just wonder if this is the item that made her end it. :confused3
 
So they're starting to film again after Jon gets back on tues. :surfweb: I wonder how Kate is going to react to Jon having a kids clothing line after her's with healthtex was shelved?

Ohhhh, I wonder if this is it!! This has definite possibilities. Good thinking!

yes. they should be allowed to move around their yard as they please .. but, Jon & Kate invited cameras into their life, I mean show. For better or worse, the cameras changed everything.

Kate is the parent. Quite frankly, if the mom wants the children to play in the back yard, then they children should obey. She absolutely should explain to the children why they can't play in the front yard....they're old enough to understand.

IMO, Kate doesn't mind ... because as long as she's seen with the children, then she's still being seen being a mom, even if the show isn't on the air. People can't forget about her if her picture is plastered all over the internet and tabloids.

I totally agree with this. How are the kids supposed to ride their bikes (easily) in the backyard, on the grass? :confused3

On an unrelated sidenote, I don't get all the grief Kate's getting on what she wears to the grocery store, to the post office, etc. For a long time, she wasn't that "into" clothes and didn't know what to wear/what looked good on her (remember, there was an entire episode devoted to Jon helping her pick out some cute clothes). I think (a) she's just enjoying her newfound fashion-sense and (b) she wants to show Jon that she still looks good, even in the face of his teeny bopper girlfriends! That's totally something I would do; you have to look good so he knows what he's missing. :rotfl:
