We already knew Jon Gosselin was a douchebag, a womanizer and a terrible father.
Now, we've learned he's also a cry baby.
The reality TV star - who was essentially fired from the TLC series that made him famous, as it will be renamed Kate Plus 8 and focus on his ex-wife, starting next month - has taken legal action to halt production on the program.
Jon's attorney, Mark Jay Heller, sent the following letter to TLC this week, following the announcement that his client would be booted as a star of the show:
"Effective immediately, no production crews are to enter Jon's family home for any reason. In the event that anyone enters the marital property, Jon Gosselin will notify the local authorities to effectuate police action against any trespassers."
Here's the best part. Check out the actual sign on the family gate, courtesy of INFDaily.com:

Said Heller, in an attempt to defend his immature client:
"Jon realized his family was like a trainwreck, so he decided to put the brakes on the divorce and on the show... because if he didn't the family would be in a mortal accident... the victims of a trainwreck."
Note to Jon: if your family is like a trainwreck, it's because you're its self-centered, publicity-starved conductor.
Meanwhile, you've gotta read the nonsense Jon's manager, Mike Heller, is spewing.
Asked by Perez Hilton if this legal action was any kind of negotiation tactic, he said:
"Jon Gosselin is the new David and TLC is the new Goliath. Jon is empowered by his new attorney to take back control of his family. Even if it means the revenue stream will be cut off. Jon's priority is family not money.
We are completely cutting ties with TLC. This is something that he has been trying to do for a while now."
That's an outright lie. All Jon has been trying to do for a while now is bang anything that moves.
For months, we've been asking who sucks more, Jon or Kate Gosselin? But that's not really a debate any longer, is it?

He is the train wreck. Just another stunt by boy jon to try and get his way. He needs more money to support his life style. Go back to school and learn to spell, you idiot.

Jon Gosselin is nothing but a big cry baby. if
things don't go his way he make a big fuss. I think the show would be better off without him.
what's he going to do when he has to work for a living just like normal people. and not live off
kate and the kids.

He was the driver of this trainwreck, goes to show that Jon doesnt have a clue to on how to be a man. If anything hes the king of do nothing, nonrelevant douchbags.

Simply put, TLC cannot start a new show with the children with without permission from their father! Douche bag or not, he has legal rights. Enough is enough with the TV filming of a disaster.

And the sign was likely made by a sign shop. I doubt if Jon has the printing capabilities to actually make it himself. He probably gave the shop verbal instructions and they hastily printed it for him, and he was anxious to slap it onto the fence to stop the filming. No one misspells their own name!

how can he do this when he is only at the house part time? Kate should have a say in this. Kate needs to speed up the divorce and get him out of that house so that they can live separate lives!

Sad that so many people are blinded by the bitch. Jon is not the bad guy here. Kate is a publicity seeking banshee who sells her children. Jon has been abused for 10 years and simply does not want his kids exposed anymore. Kate is a freak. Jon should have full custody.

Lant???? are you kidding. "Jon is not the bad guy here" Really???
So what Lant is saying is that if you are a nag who is strict but with your kids you suck, YET if you screw around, say in public (where your kids can hear you) that you detest their mom, have unprotected sex in the same house as the kids, smoke and drink in front of them and flaunt a young chickie with facebook pictures that the kids can see of sex, drugs and guns YOU deserve full custody of the children. Well all i can say is I hope you haven't any children of your own.

Mugs, not all that you read, including this article in Hollywood Gossip (notice it's called "gossip" - half of which is speculation and/or opinion). We will never really know what goes on in the Gosselins' household or anyone else's. It takes two people to make or break a relationship.

Babs, the house is in both Jon's and Kate's names.
