Kate Gosselin Denies Reality TV Caused Jon Split, Says Marriage Sucked Anyway

by at .

Kate Gosselin doesn't blame reality TV for her marriage collapsing.

The mother of eight told Katie Couric that she and Jon Gosselin would've split up eventually, regardless of whether they signed on for TLC's Jon & Kate Plus 8.

Kate Gosselin is Happy

"A lot of people try to pin reality TV and say, 'My gosh. It ended in divorce. Big surprise.' We went through a lot. The signs were always there," Kate said on Katie.

"Obviously having eight kids in a short span of time didn't help that."

"I'm not at all blaming my kids, I'm just saying. The red flags were there. So looking back, had you never heard of Jon and Kate Gosselin, I'm certain I would be in that spot now."

"It's hard because like any mom I just want the best for my kids."

Kate, 37, and Jon Gosselin, 35, finalized their divorce in December 2009 after ten years of marriage. Things have been combative, off and on, ever since.

Most recently, he has been accused of stealing her hard drive and giving it to the author of a new tell-all book slamming Kate (the author denies Jon was involved).

Jon & Kate Plus 8 feels like an eternity ago, but Kate says she's open to the idea of returning to reality TV and dating - ideally both at the same time!

"After a few years in realizing my barriers to dating and all of that and loving TV and the experiences ... I just feel like honestly, yes, that was my idea," she says.

"I would do it (so) it could be watched by families and my children. I think that it would be fun because that would allow me to sort of meet people, have fun, show my fun side."

"I do have one. I'm not always barking orders!"

    Please stop putting this woman on the airwaves. She is a talentless ego with nothing to offer. She's not news, she's an irritant. She will soon be as hated as Casey Anthony.

    There are sites on the internet that show Kate denying her kids a drink of water when she asks for some for herself and none for the kids. There is a site where she is grabbing one of the little girls and then beats her on the rear. It looks like she is pulling the child's arm from its socket. No one wants to watch Kate "run" her house, shop, travel, buy the kids shoes or God help us DATE! Networks would have to pay men MILLIONS just to take her out to dinner. She is a miserable SKANK!

    Doesn't she realize that everytime she attempts to get herself in the news that she generates BAD publicity? All of the book editors and tv production companies read these bad comments and each time she is in the news, her chances for further employment diminish. In addition, no hospital would ever hire this witch to care for their patients. She might get a job as a greeter at Walmart or Target but even they have standards that would exclude Kate.

    You know, Kate keeps saying it's all for her kids, her kids do not have to live in such a huge elaborate home, she does not have to wear glamorous clothing, she has just become materialistic and doesn;t want to admit to it. For her kids , she needs to just have a down to earth "normal" life. I'm not saying poor, but come one, she's just saying it's or her kids , it's an excuse to hide behind her hunger for fame and fortune, lets just be real about this. I hope to God she opens her eyes.
