Kate Gosselin Shares More Of How Her Kids Are Dealing With Divorce: BabyRazzi.com
Kate Gosselin has already cleared up that her kids, Collin and Alexis, were not expelled from school, but the reality mom opened up a bit more to People about their struggle to cope with their feelings.
“[Collin and Alexis] were not expelled. [The school] did not feel like they could meet their needs anymore, so it was decided they should leave, for now.”“They’ve been the ones to verbalize the most that they miss Daddy,” she says. “I could see that they’re the ones struggling the most.”Collin was upset and saying things out of frustration – he’d crumple his papers and throw them on the floor. Alexis was angry in a different way. She didn’t want to sit still. She’d get up and want to run around.”
Kate shared that the kids are in therapy and doing really well. The reality mom also shared that she and the rest of the kids are just doing the best they can to deal with the situation. Kate explains how hard she’s working to keep things consistent for them: “I’ve kept the stability, the income – everything that they know and love – “I’ve come through on that. I am doing what my kids need me to do. That’s really all that matters.” I do find it sad that Jon doesn’t seem to be working to help support the kids (MORE BELOW), as far as we know anyway. It shouldn’t all fall on Kate’s shoulders, because then when she IS away working to support the kids, everyone bashes her for not being at home with them. It’s a difficult position to be in – she can’t seem to win in the public’s opinion of her. Kate recently landed a new gig as Entertainment Tonight’s correspondent for the new Skating with the Stars show, doing interviews with the contestants.
Surprise! Jon Gosselin Gets a Real Job:EOnline.com
It may only be the first of December, but we're gonna go ahead and call this a Christmas miracle anyway: Jon Gosselin has a job. Like, a real one. That has nothing to do with reality TV.Everyone still standing? OK, then…a source tells E! News that the original octodad has found work in the technology field—you know, his profession before he became a reality-starring, Ed Hardy-wearing womanizer. "Jon is back at work at a normal job not in media or entertainment," the source says. "He's working in technology, which he did before the show."And he apparently isn't paying too much mind to his ex-wife Kate Gosselin's ongoing TV shenanigans, including her appearance on the Today show this morning in which she said she was still awaiting an apology. "He is happy as can be," the source said. And, incidentally, still happily dating girlfriend Ellen Ross. Sorry, ladies.
E!Online.com:Jon and Kate Gosselinused to have a rule never to talk to the media about their children—until now. Kate is finally firing back, days after reports that two of their Plus 8 had been expelled from their private school in Pennsylvania."Two of my children, no, are being tutored at home, with a teacher who is working closely with our kindergarten teachers in school, doing the identical curriculum," Gosselin tells Entertainment Tonight in an interview, claiming the kids weren't really booted from the school. However she did acknowledge that her and Jon's acrimonious divorce has been a factor in the youngsters acting out. "The pressure was getting to them," Kate says. "You have the divorce anger mixed in with that."However, she stresses, "the goal is to get them back into school as soon as possible."For his part, Jon Gosselin has stuck to the former couple's previous agreement and maintained silence on the matter. "Unlike Kate, Jon doesn't comment on family matters, he feels those are private," his rep exclusively tells E! News.
On a cheery pre-Thanksgiving note, Kate reveals that she and her ex have amicably ironed out who gets the children on what holiday. "I will have the first half, he will have the second half, and, we just take it year by year and holiday by holiday," she says.Kate also discusses the status of her TLC show Twist of Kate, which was supposed to debut this fall. The former Dancing With the Stars contestant confirmed it's still in the works despite reports to the contrary. "We're sort of still trying to shape it [into] what it needs to be and what is going to be fun. So no, not canceled," she added. Her latest Kate Plus 8 special premieres on TLC this Sunday.
Will 'Kate Plus 8' be saved by Sarah Palin? (Does it even need saving?)Examiner.com
Who would have ever thought we would see a Sunday-night lineup that includes a former Alaska Governor / Vice-Presidential candidate running around in her home state alongside a single mother with eight children. Not only are both of them classified as entertainment -- they have been two of TLC's highest-rated shows at various point of the past two years. However, one of them may now be leaning heavily on the other. On Sunday night "Kate Plus 8" is airing its Halloween-themed special (albeit a month late) following "Sarah Palin's Alaska." In many ways, the Palins could be a saving grace for the Gosselins, who have been the target of cancellation rumors since her past special barely managed to total over a million viewers.
