Jon Gosselin has been making the media rounds since the announcement that he wants TLC to shut down Jon and Kate Plus 8. On an interview that is airing tonight on ET with Mary Hart, Jon apologizes to wife Kate Gosselin:
“Kate, I just want to apologize, you know for my actions. You know, I├óΓé¼Γäóm sorry, you know, that I was an avoider and I didn├óΓé¼Γäót communicate properly. And now I have to take initiative, let├óΓé¼Γäós both go together, let├óΓé¼Γäós both mediate this thing out.├óΓé¼┬¥
All of these stunts he’s pulling as of late are so transparent! We don’t think he cares about Kate at all, but rather his own image. It’s BS!
Jon continues, bringing up their 8 children:
“I mean they’re 5 and 8, but they understand tabloids, they understand paparazzi, they understand all that stuff. They know things that are always printed are not truth. … When the time is right as a father I’ll decide what I’m going to do with my kids, apologizing whys and what’s right to say. I mean, that’s why I am getting counseling and that’s why I have a great team because I don’t really know what to say to them that won’t hurt them or harm them in any way.”
Regardless of apologies, the kids are going to be hurt and really it’s because of both parents. This divorce has gotten very messy and very public and will undoubtedly cause major emotional damage to all the children.
Even though we think Jon is a HUGE douchebag, it would probably be best for the kiddies if Jon and Kate could find some way to peacefully co-parent.
We’re not sure how likely that is though, especially after all the shiz Jon has caused by his ridiculous behavior over the past few months!
