Kate Gosselin on People! WATCH RV Breakdown HERE! What Did You Think Of This 2nd To Last Episode?

People.com: Kate Gosselin's long-time TLC show Kate Plus 8 has been canceled, and she's the first to admit that the transition from reality star to regular mom isn't going to be an easy one. "I'm freaking out. Big time," she tells PEOPLE in the new issue.

Her kids, twins Cara and Mady, and sextuplets Alexis, Hannah, Aaden, Collin, Leah and Joel "weren't ready," to leave the show, which has been airing since 2005, she adds. "Nobody was. I've never quit a job in my life without having something else lined up. I don't know what's next." But Gosselin, 36, whose messy divorce from husband Jon played out in the tabloids – and on TV – in 2009, vows to work hard to keep the lifestyle she's provided for her kids. "I told them I will work my fingers to the bone to make sure that they can stay here and go to their school," she says. "There are no guarantees in life for anyone, but they know that I'm giving it my best shot."

The drama of the Gosselin family RV trip doesn't stop until the end of the episode. When the new RV won't start, Kate accuses the Kate Plus 8 crew of rigging the RVs. Of course, that isn't the case. It is just some bad luck for Kate and her caravan. When it is discovered that one of the kids is eating pizza, Kate blows up. She says there were only four slices of pizza left from the night before and those were earmarked for the adults. When the two ladies from the Party Bus note that they don't want the pizza, she tells them that the pizza should go to Steve, who doesn't eat mac-n-cheese or salad. She claims that the kid eating the pizza ruined lunch for everyone and now Steve doesn't have anything to eat. She tells the women in the bus to get Steve a piece of the remaining slices of pizza. Mady grabs the pizza and hands it to Steve. Kate promptly starts in again about how it is 'disgusting' for Mady to grab the pizza and that one of the adults should have wrapped it in foil instead of letting Mady grab it with her 'dirty' hands. This upsets Ashley, who has a breakdown. Frankly, it is surprising that she has lasted this long without a serious breakdown considering the way Kate has treated her and Jamie like children the entire trip.

Ashley remarks that everyone has enough food to eat because the two refrigerators are so stuffed that it is difficult to close them. Seriously? Like Kate couldn't just run in at a store or a fast food restaurant to grab food for the people with her on the trip. The whole incident was just the icing on the cake for poor Ashley. She notes that she has worked for Kate for five years and that this is the worst it has ever been. The Kate Plus 8 staff members send Ashley home. She has a sad goodbye scene with the kids. She reminds them that she loves them all and that she will see them again. It was a touching scene, and hopefully when Kate sees it, she will realize what a gem she had in Ashley. For the kids' sake, Kate should apologize to Ashley and hope that Ashley will come back. On her Twitter page, Kate tweets that she didn't know Ashley was leaving. She says she was in her RV doing an interview. That is probably one of the smartest things the producers of Kate Plus 8 have ever done. Can you imagine the dramatic scene that would have unfolded if Kate had been there? It probably would have been much worse than any ever seen on this show. The end of the episode finds the kids somewhat happy and the adults happy that the two-week trip is done. The final episode of Kate Plus 8 airs September 12 at 9 p.m. EST on TLC.
