I have watched every episode of Jon and Kate; Anyone could see how Kate treated Jon. I understand that no one knows everything by watching the show. But Kate has a disorder that seems not to be taken in to consideration. She has stated just that although she said it real fast. She truely needs help and I am not saying this because I don't care for her. Watching (her) on the new season shows her to be fake and loving the limelight. Everyone
has their own opinions. She is out of balance. Yes they both entered into this marriage and kids, and both are responible for those kids. (Money has a funny way of changing some people).

For everyone out there who thinks we should let the family live their lives, end the spotlight, and stop gossiping....guess what you are going right now? ADDING to all of it. By clicking on the link that brought you to this story you were saying you wanted to read the GOSSIP. For the people who decided to post comments, you are giving them the SPOTLIGHT. So if you actually wanted this to end you would stop watching the show and quit searching the internet for Jon and Kate news. Its time to stop watching "reality" TV and start living our own lives. (And reality is in "" because, really, how many of us live in a mansion paid for by TLC and get to go on free vacations to Disneyland?)

Jon would drive me nuts too and that would be with only two children. With eight well.. good luck. Kate is demanding but whith a husband like Jon who just doesn't seem to be able to think things through and AVOIDS the difficult stuff. He won't take any initiative. He only does what HE wants to do Jon should have stepped up a long time ago but he didn't. There was a scene when Kate rudely shouts "Hello".. cause Jon is completely unaware of what is going on and that his children needed help... that seems to sum up the whole marriage since the children came.
He is doing what he wants now and that is womanizing, smoking, partying and spending cash. He's inmature and not at all cut out for the job of being a father to eight kids. Good thing Kate got the tv show money and wrote books.
You rarely see Jon praise Kate for all her stills in organzing and really making a wonderful life for those kids.. he just mopes and whines.
Kate in the long run will be better off without him

OK Jon, there is an old saying that says "thou protesteth too much" IMO that applies to you. We all know that there are 2 sides to every story, and that Kate is no angel as far as temperament and etc. But YOU are the one out there and having all these bozos on your arm. Do you not think that is some of the reason that you are blamed? It is obvious that you no longer love Kate, and wanted out so badly you could hardly stand it, by your behavior not only now, but also on the show. So get used to this old boy, this is your life. To think you would walk away from 8 kids unscathed is ludicrous on your part. Its time you grew up and stop thinking about what JON wants.

How can Jon be blamed when Kate told him it was over in Oct. '08. Yet she cries on TV as if he has divorced her. She is an actress! The divorce has nothing to do with Jon only to do with the money and she wont give up the kids for that reason, not becuse she is a good mother.
Kate's brother said she does no work and the exboyfriend said she was all about the money. Kate herself has said she likes to boss.
Octomom saw Kate (though she denies it) and now wants a reality show even though she explicitly said that Kate was exploiting her kids. Kate in turn must have thought if Octomom can do it alone and get all the cash so can I. They make a pair! Learning and teaching each other on TLC. TLC seems to be supporting Kate.
I feel that Hailey is a set up for people to cast aspersions on Jon. Remember Hailey is Kate's Plastic Surgeon's daughter! Kate was great friends with the wife.
It was Jon with Kate's brother who painted, set up the shelves, etc. and Jon who did Kate's work of

I have not watched the show since all this brew haha started. I am sick about this whole thing. I do not want to watch another marriage fail. Enough already....stop taking thier pictures and following them around...stop buying the magazines with all this trash. What have we become people? This is not entertainment...this is WRONG. We sit on our fat butts watching people embarass themselves on all these stupid reality TV shows. I am no amused...and we wonder why our children are killing each other when they don't get what they want. Wake up America we suck!

OH--What was that familar sound---whirl---nope --THAT'S IT-----WHINE, WHINE, WHINE--must be JON going OH POOR ME AGAIN.
Lets get the facts straight---she works --a lot--let me see -well someone has to , for a college fund for 8 kids--it sure wasn't going to come from Dead Beat Dad. Kate is home all the time with the kids or working to gain income for such kids---where's Jon-in France--The Hamptoms--which 20 something chicky is he with now----He has done nothing , but POOR ME--since this happened-he's flying on the coat tails of Kate -wrangling all the "we hate Kate"stories to his advantage. They filed for divorce in June--, but in his one story he said he started seeing Haily in May---HMMMMM-Does anyone think , maybe Kate had a reason for filing?
He's a weasel and I think that is eventually going to come out--actually , it slowly is coming out.
I am so sick of his POOR ME attitude-who's home with the kids--who's supporting and bring in a income. Who is the ONLY one who has held he

Sharon...stop texting...put down your cell phone and pay attention here! Did we lose you somewhere? Kate is a control freak. John could give her the moon on a silver platter and it would be the wrong color. If everything Jon does is wrong in her eyes, why should he even try. Did anybody see the episode where he prepared dinner for the family? She complained because he never cooks and then complained because he was in HER kitchen. She then went off to the bedroom to play on the computer. My wife and I have five kids, including a set of triplets, that keep us very busy. Kate has eight and still has time to drop everything for regular trips to the spa and frequent trips to have her DO adjusted. Did you see her scream at her toddlers when they went to Disney? Oh Please people!

Sorry Naples but I have to agree with Sharon in part. True, Kate was/is extremely overbearing and disrespectful of Jon, but that is her personality, plain and simple. Jon should have known this when they married; it shouldn't have been a surprise. What upsets me about Jon is that he should have worked on gaining control in the marriage and having a voice in the marriage, not leaving the marriage to have those things. It's easy for him to play the victim here and boo hoo to the public about how he was too passive etc, etc. Yeah, you were Jon, but when you have 8 children, divorce is not the answer! Dating a 20 year old woman is not the answer! In part, I can see Kate's frustrations..if you were acting like a whiny college party kid, then yeah, I'd have to treat you like one too. But I digress..My point, pure and simple, is that these two chose to have 8 children and they should come first. Your life ends when theirs begins (so to speak) so put your selfish ambitions aside and raise you

who would stay with someone who controlls, and embaresses you on national tv. I felt horrible for jon at disneyworld, when kate overreacted about ice cream getting on the children clothing. kids will be kids. you complained about the cost of clothing the kids, with the money you make on one episode get over it. alittle biz or shout it out works or carrying extra clothing does too. Kate is rude, disrespectful and overbearing toward jon. If I was her I would be worried how my kids will feel when the get older and watch the show, and see how mommy treated daddy on tv and who knows how bad off camera.

I don't blame Jon at all,the way she treated him on TV who know's what happened when they were alone.She showed no love toward Jon at all,putting him down and hitting him all the time on show.She's one bossy -itch and everything had to be her way,and the way she yelled at him at toyrus I would have left her there.I hope Jon will find true love.Matty acts just like her.She not the great mother she want's people think she is,and when Jon came home from work they all ran to him.I DON'T watch the show anymore because of her,what a big attitude Kate has,Since her surgey she think's she hot,whatever.See what money does to you,and used her kids to get it,stop it's all over no more show's please.Kate go away.

I do not blame Jon for the divorce. Frankly I seen it coming for a long time. Jon is still married however. He should have at least waited till he was single to start dating. Marriages fail every day and if you can not get along get the divorce. But when children are involved at least wait til you are single before you start seeing other people. Give the children time to deal with one thing at a time!!!

Naples,
Stop hatin on Kate. JON IS A LAZY SOB! It takes a lot to be a mom to one child let alone 8. Kate maybe overbearing at times but I am sure it is not intentional. Jon is Lazy as hell and this pathetic mid life crisis he is acting out is pathetic. He had 8 children by the tiem he was 27. This is typical, he feels like he didn't get to fully live out hsi youth so he is acting out. It's so pathetic, once your a parent your a parent. Kate doesn't just take off and go to the bar's looking all sloppy. Jon is a sad excuse for a man right now. I am sure it is a phase though after a year he is gonna regret his decision. I see it all the time

I think the show should be cancelled so no one can make money off of the children. Kate needs to go back to nursing and Jon needs to return to his former profession, it is no longer Jon & Kate plus 8 and the network needs to quit promoting it as such. I refuse to watch the show and it makes me sick to see the explotation of those beautiful children.

Sharon....Please!!!
What you interpret as Jon being lazy on the show is Kates overpowering, I'll say what I want - when I want, Sit there and don"t say a word, over-controlling little WITCH!!!!!! I'm glad Jon finally stood up for himself and said enough is enough. He's single now, and I also agree that he is free to date whomever he want's. Kates is also free......but who would want to date that type of girl - definitely not me!!! I do not need someone in my life telling me what to do 24/7!!! And, I feel if she does find someone, it would only to be recognized on TV...how sad!
I feel sorry for those children for its clear they are being exploited for Kates multiple personalities. ....BTW Sharon, did you actually watch even 1 episode? I picked up on her from day 1!!!
I say good riddance to her and now Jon can live his life according to how HE wishes too!

August 7th, 2009 7:00 AM
IF PEOPLE WOULD JUST LEAVE THIS COUPLE ALONE THEY WILL DO FINE. AS FAR AS JON GOES HE IS LAZY. YOU COULD TELL THAT FROM THE SHOW. THOSE KIDS ARE WHAT IS IMPORTANT RIGHT NOW NOT THE GOSSIP COLUMNS ABOUT EACH OF THEIR LIVES. MY MY HOW PEOPLE LOVE TO GOSSIP. THEY BOTH SHOULD THINK OF THOSE CHILDREN FIRST AND QUIT ACTING LIKE SPOILED BRATS. YES I SAID IT BOTH NEED TO GROW UP AND REALIZE WHAT IS HAPPENING TO THEM. THEY ARE AT THE MEDIA'S AND GOSSIP COLUMNS MERCY. KATE I KNOW YOU HAVE BEEN HURT BUT GET OVER IT LET HIM GO AND DO THE SHOW WITHOUT HIM. HE IS NOT WORTH THE SALT IN HIS BREAD AS THE SAYING GOES. ANYONE WHO WOULD NOT BE HAPPY WITH A FAMILY LIKE THAT AND A WIFE THAT DOES ABOUT EVERYTHING SHE CAN TO SEE THAT THEY WILL HAVE A FUTURE DOESN'T NEED A JERK LIKE JON AROUND TO DO ANYTHING. I DON'T BLAME HER FOR WANTING A FUTURE FOR ALL OF THOSE CHILDREN. IT TAKES A LOT OF MONEY JUST TO RAISE ONE CHILD LET ALONE 8. QUIT GOSSIPING AND LET THEM WORK THEIR OWN PROBLEMS OUT INSTEAD

Whomever is to blame for the failure of the marrige between Jon and Kate is irrelevent. Failed marriages happen everyday. What's most important, and something everyone especially Kate, seems to be overlooking is the kids. If Kate truely loved those children as she claims, she would end the spotlight and help the children get on without their father. Speaking from experience, women who are more concerned about themselves rather then their children end up with a disfunctional family. Childrens grades aren't what they should be; they get into trouble a lot (sometimes with the police); they have no direction in life; and it's not uncommon for them to turn to drugs. A broken home can still be loving and nurturing, but it takes the parent to guide the children.

When did Kate have the tummy tuck and when did Jon meet this girl? Does that have anything to do with Kate giving up on the marriage in October?

There are apparently a lot of retarded commenters who've never watched a single episode or can't read. If Kate wanted the divorce, how is Jon to blame? He moved out of the bedroom some many months ago. Kate is free to deny this. Notice she hasn't. This is consistent with their personaliites. Jon trys to avoid escalation, gives in Kate that I've seen. And technicalites aside, Jon is now a single guy. He SHOULD date around find the right girl. I sure didn't marry the first girl I dated. Half the marriages in america wind up in divorce - let me guess which half all these "team kate" ideological lunatics will be falling.

I'm sure this will all end with Jon refusing to wear undergarments and getting hauled away by the psych squad. Or am I thinking of somebody else? Either way, I wish they'd all drop off the media radar and go back to their $8/hour jobs at McDonald's or whatever.

Sorry Me, I have to disagree. This "man" agreed to marry Kate, knowing what type of person she was. He agreed to go thru with the invitro or what ever type of conception the had. He had vows that he promised to keep. When you commit to marriage it's for the good and the bad. If you don't want to do that then don't get married. But kids prosper when they live in a home with a mother and a father. I say shame on them for letting their selfish needs and wants get in the way of what was most important. Look at him, he's a father who is hurting his children by partying like a teen, dating other women. How must a child feel seeing his dad with someone other than mom. It's just very disappointing and the fact that it's played out on t.v. is so sad. I can't take sides with either one. It takes 2 people to make a marriage work. It's not always easy street either. If they truly loved each other from day one, they'd still be together.

August 5th, 2009 5:22 PM
Oh yeah, best wishes to you Jon. I know you love those children, you will be a better parent now that you can truly be you (unconfined, unrestrained, better yet, controlled!!). Enjoy life and enjoy those kids!! Me Ke Aloha Pumehana!!

You know, I think Jon has gotten a bad rap in all of this, and I am glad that he is getting to tell his side of the story. I am kinda shocked that Kate, who always has so much to say, is actually not saying anything. Very peculiar, perhaps she is enjoying all the blame that is going to Jon, so she looks like the good one. Don't like her but I do wish her well with her children and pray they may all get along as a family, you don't have to be together (mom & dad) to still be a family. Love those babies ;)

Sorry Me, I have to disagree. This "man" agreed to marry Kate, knowing what type of person she was. He agreed to go thru with the invitro or what ever type of conception the had. He had vows that he promised to keep. When you commit to marriage it's for the good and the bad. If you don't want to do that then don't get married. But kids prosper when they live in a home with a mother and a father. I say shame on them for letting their selfish needs and wants get in the way of what was most important. Look at him, he's a father who is hurting his children by partying like a teen, dating other women. How must a child feel seeing his dad with someone other than mom. It's just very disappointing and the fact that it's played out on t.v. is so sad. I can't take sides with either one. It takes 2 people to make a marriage work. It's not always easy street either. If they truly loved each other from day one, they'd still be together.

Oh yeah, best wishes to you Jon. I know you love those children, you will be a better parent now that you can truly be you (unconfined, unrestrained, better yet, controlled!!). Enjoy life and enjoy those kids!! Me Ke Aloha Pumehana!!

You know, I think Jon has gotten a bad rap in all of this, and I am glad that he is getting to tell his side of the story. I am kinda shocked that Kate, who always has so much to say, is actually not saying anything. Very peculiar, perhaps she is enjoying all the blame that is going to Jon, so she looks like the good one. Don't like her but I do wish her well with her children and pray they may all get along as a family, you don't have to be together (mom & dad) to still be a family. Love those babies ;)
