Jon Gosselin Ignores His Kids - Goes Out With Reporter
Jon Gosselin found new ways over the weekend to make himself look even more douchetastic. While Kate and his 8 kids were getting scared and hassled by paps in midtown Manhattan, Jon was a few blocks away ironing his Ed Hardy collection and combing his hair plugs.
Later that night when he could have been spending time with his kids, Jon decided he would rather spend time with another Kate. This Kate is Kate Major. She is a reporter for Star Magazine and seems perfectly willing to latch on to Jon for all he is worth. The NY Daily News didn't have the kindest things to say about her and apparently when photographers were trying to get pics of Jon alone, she kept getting in the frame.
Kate says the pair are just friends. Uh huh. Well, whatever she is, she did manage to get him into a sport coat. If you had asked me I would have guessed he didn't even own one so it shows you how much I know. It does bother me though that he has a brand new apartment in town and his kids were there and he didn't even bother to show it to them. That makes no sense. He made no effort to see them on Saturday night despite the fact that several of them had been crying after the altercation Saturday afternoon where paps got into a struggle with security in front of the kids.
What kind of dad ignores that so he can go out on a date? Or a friend date or whatever? Speaking of kids, at the TLC shoot on Saturday it was Kate and all her kids and the Duggars and their kids. That is a ton of kids. That's like an entire elementary school.
Wow, I'll bet this douche is a GREAT father. Bleecccchhh.
ReplyDeleteDoes this really surprise us? Umm nope. Douche-dar off the charts and now officially broken.
ReplyDeleteWhat a turn he has taken. It sounds like he was the main parental figure in that home while Kate was on the road, but his actions since the news of their split came out are disgusting. Those kids seemed to really adore their father - probably because he acted like a kid himself - but this has to be very difficult on them. What an immature prick. What's even more disgusting is that while he appears to spend no real time with them, he continues to make money off of them.
ReplyDeleteJon Gosselin is a loser, big news right? What I am more focused on is that woman. The wind blown hair, the pose, the dumb look on her face. Hilarious.
ReplyDeleteSo..Jon & Kate minus Kate minus 8?!?!
ReplyDeleteGetting confusing...
Sue Ellen, I was thinking the same thing. You would have thought the paps were after her, and not DoucheDad. See, she's got a real STAR quality about her. Can't wait to see what kind of dirt he feeds her for her rag mag.
ReplyDeletei read over the weekend somewhere that Jon was pissed about everyone asking where he was and why isn't he with his kids and his response was that he has visitation just like any other seperated Dad and that he is with his kids when it is his time and Kate is with the kids when it is her time.
ReplyDeletesounds pretty normal. it would be pretty confusing for the kids if he popped up everytime a camera did just to appease the masses. i'm done harping on the guy, they are seperated on their way to divorce. if he was tossing time with his kids away to hang with douchbags on boats, then i'd have issue.
Kate sure has one hell of a spin doctor. in two weeks we've gone from hating kate to feeling bad for her.
i thought he hated all the attention the show brought him and he just wants to live a normal life?? his words.
ReplyDeleteJax I agree with you 100%. They have been seperated for over year and they both have moved on. People should not be fooled by Kate still wearing her ring. That is all for spin.
ReplyDeleteUgh. Can't this creep take his control freak wife and 8 kids and head off into the sunset? I don't feel bad for either of the adults, but the kids didn't asked to be raised in a freak show.
ReplyDeleteEnty, dear,
ReplyDeleteA while back, you enacted a ban on certain over-exposed celebs and celeb-wanna-be's. It has been really effective; many of those banned are now being largely ignored and no longer command the kind of money or headlines they crave. Can we pleasepleaseplease place a ban on these child-abusing losers? Maybe once we are no longer paying attention to them, maybe they'll stop pimping their children for their own attention and profit. Horrible people are so prevalent that to "reward" them with the press they crave is to feed them more fuel for more abuse. I'm bored of these losers (though my heart goes out to their kids). BAN them!
Yes, yes I'm with Philly. Let's ban these ... ugh can't come up with a bad enough non-curse word...
ReplyDeletereally, Terrance, they've been separated for a yr? wow. i didn't know that. but i guess it explains a lot.
ReplyDeleteWhat an asshat. PLEASE, Enty - make them go away!
ReplyDeleteGood point, Phillyphan! If people stop looking, eventually they will go away. That's marketing for ya!
ReplyDeleteWhat kind of dad does this? Unfortunately the answer is many of them (and many moms too). I always thought my ex-husband was a great dad...right up until we divorced. After that, the kids were shoved to the background in his life.
ReplyDeleteHaving said that...I really don't care what either John or Kate do. I've never watched the show and don't plan on ever watching it.
Great comment, Philly. I don't find this guy newsworthy in the slightest. Why is his face everywhere? I mean, I know it's bound to stop at some point (it always does), but I don't see ANY need 4 him to be on every magazine cover/website. None.
ReplyDeleteI agree, these people aren't fun anymore...were they ever??? and his douchbaggery is profoundly annoying. If a woman behaved this way, she would be drawn and quartered....or have her children given to K-fed....
ReplyDeleteJon and Kate keep saying the kids are their priority.
ReplyDeleteIf that's true, they would continue to co-parent and not adhere to any visitation rules.
I think Jon enjoys the restrictions of visitation because it enables him to get out and get some.
I have always found it odd that when a couple breaks up, the man is allowed to go out, drink and make a general fool of himself and limit himself to minimal visits with the children. If he takes care of them at all he is considered "a great dad". However, if the woman goes out and does the same and lets the male be the primary caregiver, they can't hang her fast enough. Add to that, the mother who stays with her children but also works usually gets harrassed about the amount of time spent with her children. Where as it is a blanket excuse for any man who can't be bothered to show up for a ballgame. Frankly, it is a breath of fresh air to see him get dragged over the coals because I promise you, if Kate was doing it, she would be catching hell from all quarters.
ReplyDelete^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
ReplyDeleteAbso-freakin'-lutely, BigMama!
I was trying to think of how to say it, and you did it for me.
i noticed the inconsistancy a long time ago when I was a single mom. I had a friend who was a single dad and we talked about the different attitudes. With me, it was a "well, you got yourself into this. Besides, it's you job" attitude. He, however, got a "OMG, your such a wonderful man! How hard, how sad, how can I help" attitude. He actually kinda resented the idea that being a single dad was some sort of burden and too difficult to handle. ( I resented he had an endless supply of women wanting to date him because he was a dad and I couldn't GET a date cause I was a mom...*sigh*)LOL
ReplyDeleteGrace, that marriage is over.Done. kids can be priorities without the parents being together and doing anyhting else at this point would be confusing and irresponsible to those little ones.
ReplyDeletewhatever either parent wants to do in thier own time is their business, they aren't together anymore and being saintlike never made anyone a perfect parent!being a happy parent makes you a better parent.
oh and don't fool yourself Big momma, a week ago we were all on Team Jon becasue kate was GONE from the KIDS all the time while they were together, don't think she's at home twittling her thumbs during this whole ordeal...well not alone anyway.
off my soapbox ,lol.
jax - Trust me, I have never been team whatever. I think they are both morons. :) It has been funny to see the shifting of it all, it reminds me that no one really knows what goes on behind closed doors. In anyones life, even the subjects of our beloved Blinds. LOL
ReplyDeletelol, i hear ya.
ReplyDeleteI have never been Team Jon or Team Kate. I am Team Kids and I think they deserve better then the parents they have.
ReplyDeletethis story is only tragic now
