The March issue of Runner’s World is out and on the stands and Kate Gosselin is featured in the “I’m a Runner” section. This is not available on line yet but you can check here periodically to see when it is available.
Someone did scan and tweet a copy of the article to Twitter and here are a few highlights:
- Kate’s daughter Cara is into running and will run a mile or two with her .
- She use to run five to six miles a day six days a week but because of the kids’ schedules she now runs 10 miles every other day.
- The best part of running the Las Vegas Marathon this past December was that her kids were able to see her complete a goal.
- She has her phone with her in case one of her kids need her and she will text people while running if need be.
- When she runs she is very specific about certain things such as having her hair tied back in a knot or her headphones placed a certain way to cut down on annoyance factors.
- She became discouraged after mile 13 while running her first marathon because the most miles she had completed at one time was 20. For the last eight miles, she ran one mile for each one of her kids.
Make sure you check Runner’s World, I’m a Runner section, to read the full article when it is available. If you want to see the article via the twitter picture you can click here. There is a great picture of Kate in it!

Kate looks stunning in the magazine picture. I saw it posted somewhere else. Living good (healthy eating and exercise) has been Kates best friend, and a wonderful example to all Mothers. She encourages people to just do your best.
Snickers well said & ITA. Also, Kate appears at peace with her life. So happy for her and the kids.
i agree i think she has seemed so for quite a while.
Good for Kate. I saw the pic on the twitter. She looked fantastic. It was a cute shot.
Kate doesn’t encourage. It’s only about her. Never will change. Just take her comment made on Dr Drew’s Life Changers. He asked how things are between her & Jon and her answer, classic narcissistic answer “oh things are good, it’s nothing I’ve done or changed (translation: I AM PERFECT)” That comment just shows how full of her self and she would never actually encourage someone because that would take the light off her.
I am glad to see that this blog is taking the high road an not playing internet analyst on the Jon & Ellen affair.
I am so happy for Kate. She is doing remarkable. How fabulous it must be to be featured in a magazine. I love the pic of her sitting on the kitchen counter. She is a beauty for sure.
Tcparra,
What is the difference between this blog or anyone posting at this website discussing Jon and Ellen and you coming here and diagnosing Kate as a narcissist? I am not going to buy the public figure thing because Jon announced it on his Twitter and even the BL said that was not private. They posted his statement. I read her comment.
Kate does look great in that picture. It was a nice article.
TC,
Taking the high road about J/E here, but yet you bash Kate. My oh my, how the rules only apply to what you say. If Kate didn’t say a word about Jon, she would be talked about probably slamming Jon to her kids, but keeps it hidden to the public. I don’t know why you think Kate can’t say anything about an ex husband, when you see other people on TV talk about their ex’s.
I can say Kate encouraged me to get out and walk/run. I’m still at almost 4 miles in a hour. Sometimes less. I still don’t run for more then 3 mins at a time but I don’t really care about that. She helped get me out and enjoy getting out.
Its my opinion regarding the Dr. Drew interview Kate was complementing Jon. Jon is coming around on his own without any badgering from her.
Tc seems to be telling us only the non fans have a licence to play internet analyst.
I agree, The picture of Kate in Runners World is to cute.
Also, If anyone reads Kate’s twitter you’ll see loads of ladies coming out and thanking Kate for inspiring them either to start running or to push for more out of themselves.
Because of Ellens involvement with the internet haters I’m hopping Jon just grew out of that phase and wants nothing more to do with it.
Anything less than kissing Kate’s ass must be bashing to you. I didn’t bash her. I said she doesn’t encourage. She gave a narcissistic answer. She did. To imply that things are changing, but it’s not anything she is doing is a narcissistic response. I am not the only one calling her that. There are a lot of main stream legit articles where they use that word. What I meant about Jon/Ellen is that I was glad to see no one over here all giddy about their break up (well, except one commentor maybe). What they do and why they do it is their business. At least they were respectful of each other in their “announcement”. I wonder how long before the drama blogs blame his new girlfriend for any “hate” or being the “source” for any articles? Because we know that EVERYBODY else LOVES Kate and wouldn’t say a mean thing.
Have you read all the comments regarding Kate’s blurb in Runner World?
Kate’s compliments of Jon were so weak. She barely got the words out and still sounded bitter after all these years.
I want to know just what was the reason for her being on his show? To play the “poor me”
card? If she is strong and feels successful, why go on this show and cry a river?
Good for Kate, she’s really worked hard & seems to be in a healthy place.
Good for IW for consistently being the blog that takes the high road..:)
Just a guess Tc but I’m thinking she was invited to be on Dr. Drew. How does anyone get on any show ? I only saw the clip where she was ASKED about how her & Jon are getting along these days so I don’t know anything about “crying a river.” Non fans seem to interpret everything Kate says or does in a negative light just to feed their ‘digital crack’ addiction IMO.
To like Kate doesn’t mean to “kiss her ass” we just don’t feel the need to hate and find fault with her. She’s just a woman/mother living her life and working the best way she know how with what life hands her.
If Jon’s next girlfriend makes friends with the hater underworld I will assume I was wrong in thinking he is moving forward. I doesn’t matter to me if she ‘likes’ Kate or not but to publicly make friends with Khaters is in no way a good environment for the kids.
I think Ellen was just what he was looking for at that time in his life.
Maybe I was reading the wrong ‘Runner World’ but there was only 11 comments and one or two of them were first time commenters, funny those 2 were the only really hateful ones. http://www.runnersworld.com/community/forums/general-discussion/rants-raves/kate-gosselin-really.
Anyone in the Gosselin blogland know the hater/non fans run to every article to leave their mark over and over. Fans don’t really feel a need to, its just the same ones over and over, no biggie.
Grand Kids home from church and I promised them we’d take the dogs for a walk today out in the desert and look for wild horses. One of the times my daughter-in-law and I went walking/running out there we met up with one, the kids won’t let us forget it. They want to see them too.
Kate looks so happy and healthy in the picture obviously life is good for her.
Regarding the Jon and Ellen break up…who cares? If Jon would not have tweeted to his 60,000 followers no one whould have known.
Sage,
Kate does look happy & healthy in the ‘Runner World’ article. So good if fact it has some folks chompin’ on their bit.
Kate found something she can enjoy and excels at and some people just have to poo on that too. Just goes to show they’re full of poo and don’t mind letting the internet world know.
Kate does look really good in that picture. Really TC if you hate Kate so much why do you look at and read every tidbit of info about her. It seems to just get you all riled up and that could not be good for your blood pressure. If any of the blogs want to discuss Jon and Ellen how is that any different than those hateful blogs you frequent discussing Kate? We get the fact that EVERTHING Kate says or does is wrong in your eyes, most of us here don’t see it that way , and frankly the attacks are getting very old.
Nice to see you commenting Sage, I miss your blog and hope you are doing well.
SHOUT OUT TO SAGE))))))) Miss you!
Seems like somneone is Kates police squad always. Just because she doesn’t like the answer she gives in a interview, lo and behold she is the therapist to tell everyone what Kate is thinking. I give Kate the respect for not saying things about Jon out loud that most people really think. Why Kate can’t say anything about Jon just blows my mind, but Jon can give interviews stating he hated Kate and would spend the childrens money if he wanted to. Guess someone has visited the NN and wasn’t free to have her comments stand. IW stands far above this. TC, are you so mad that Kate moved on in life, has opportunities while your friend Jon is starting over again? So if Ellen sells a story about Jon, will she be the bad scorned woman also?
Hi Sage, love and miss ya!
Oh carol, you should really read my comments with both eyes. I am not attacking Kate because I say she gave a narcissistic answer and I don’t hate EVERYTHING she does. Geez. I don’t pick on her 24/7 or tweet my displeasure day & night. I simply pointed out a moment, a very recent moment, where she couldn’t even be mature enough to indicate that things are changing or have changed because of the team effort Jon and HER have made. No she had to act as if any changes were made by Jon because she doesn’t make mistakes (“not because of anything I am doing”). Then she had to still portray that the kids are only slightly happy at his place. Why not maybe, just maybe she could have said everything is great or no comment. Then when you have Dr Drew asking loaded questions like “Is Jon a good dad”? That just smells of desperation for ratings and attention seeking. There really is no need for those kind of questions, unless you are looking to give someone a forum to cry and act sad or trash their dad.
Jeeze Tc, Where did Kate say the kids are “only slightly happy at his place.” It was the second time I’ve heard her say the kids come home happy and that’s all that matters. Btw, in regards to things being more peaceful between her and Jon, Kate’s words were that it’s “probably” not anything she’s doing differently. I’m glad things are more peaceful between them. Jon gave Kate and the kids a lot of unnecessary grief. It’s good to hear that things have improved.
Snickers, why don’t you try using current conversations that Jon has had about Kate instead of bringing up 3 year old stale interviews? I know why, because Jon has been respectful of Kate and her parenting by not saying anything since he learned from his mistakes. Kate can say what ever she feels, but why the consistent trashing of Jon? Still 3 years later?
You want to minimize what she said. However it still is trashing Jon. ‘The kids are now OK going to Jon’s” or “Things are peaceful, NOT because of anything I am doing”
Those are direct cuts and they are simply a continuation of her pity me and hate on Jon tour.
I agree Lily, I never heard Kate say “only slightly happy” and the only way Kate would know how Jon is as a dad is that “the kids come home happy”
For all we know at the time of the interview Kate might have known all was not well with Jon & Ellen (from the kids) and wanted to make sure not to go there.
Tc, why do you hear Kate say things she didn’t say ?
Its very good Jon & Kate have come to a more peaceful place. That’s always good to hear don’t you think Tc ?
“Kate’s words were that it’s “probably” not anything she’s doing differently.” – Lily, you don’t see anything wrong with that comment? Probably not anything? That is a BS comment if ever there was one. It takes two when a relationship disolves or heals and for her to act like she has nothing to do with it getting better smacks of complete lack of respect and self centered attitude. Why didn’t she just say “I have done nothing wrong and Jon needs to fix things for it to get better”?
What “grief” are you referring to? From 2 – 3 years ago? Anything new you can come up with that he did in the last 6 – 12 months? Using the alleged “source” behind something doesn’t count either as no body can say they know Jon OR ellen did it because they have a crystal ball or a secret contact at the rag mag sites.
Kate was giving Jon credit Tc but by all means see it how it best serves your purposes.
She has just been going on with her life as always and Jon is doing better. It doesn’t really sound like they interact much together and the only way Kate knows what’s going on with Jon is through the kids and since they are happy to go see him and happy when they come home she can assume he’s stable in his life.
How did Jon give Kate AND the kids unnecessary grief? I am curious what point in time you are referring to. Was it 2 years ago, 3 years ago?
TC,
I have no idea what Jon says to his 60,000 tweeters, but I know his last love was involved with the side against Kate. A good Father would have never allowed this to happen. Sorry, don’t buy it, Jon does his best work in hiding and I will believe it when he either shuts down his twitter or opens it up to the public. That privacy crap he is saying is all bs. Sold stories two days in a row is not private.I don’t care if kate says Jon poops in the forest, it’s her life. You really should focus on finding Jon a new gal pal, or maybe if he is so wonderful, you should go date him.
It takes two when a relationship disolves or heals and for her to act like she has nothing to do with it getting better smacks of complete lack of respect and self centered attitude. ~TCparra

Nope, I don’t see anything wrong w/what she said. She and the kids had a rough road after the divorce and I think it’s fine to acknowledge that. I agree, Deborah, Kate was giving Jon credit.
TC, I completely disagree that it takes two. In any type of relationship, one person can destroy it all on their own.
/
What “grief” are you referring to? From 2 – 3 years ago?
/
I’m not going to rehash w/you what I consider Jon’s sins against his family. I’m just glad he’s stopped. For the last couple of months, he finally does seem to be living the private life he’s been yelling about it.
Kate looks great! I liked the article in Runners World. I’m glad her positive changes (being healthy) are being noticed.
#16, if you follow your link to the Runner’s world comments I don’t know where you are getting your counts, but 10 out of the 12 are not nice and who really cares if they are new people who are posting? They are relative to that blog and the article.
No matter who was to blame for the divorce and no matter how much Kate is disliked, Kate is stil a real live living,breathing indivdiual who has feelings and emotions just like the rest of us.I believe that Kate did love Jon and I think she was devasted about their break-up, just as most women would be. Compound that by everyone in the world knowing that Jon was proclaiming his happiness to be free and flaunting numerous girlfriends publicly as well as saying how much he despised her.Anyone going through this would have a tough time dealing with it,but imagine dealing with it in the public eye and with people screaming you got what you deserved. I am not saying Kate is blameless but I do think she deserves the same compassion that any one dealing with this kind of situation would get. I also think that Jon is probably mixed up and unhappy and made mistakes just as we all do, I wish him well, I also wish he could stop encouraging this hate campaign against the mother of his children.
So lily, you are saying that Kate had NOTHING to do with the marriage breaking up? That it was all Jon?
Carol, how in the world is Jon “encouraging this hate campaign against the mother of his children” You are purely speculating when you say that. It is amazing how much the “fans” seem to think they know every detail about what Jon or Ellen has said. Just as amazing as the haters thinking they know every detail about what Kate does.
I guess I should correct what I said that Jon “finally does seem to be living the private life he’s been yelling about it.” What I mean is, that he hasn’t been selling stories that affect the kids negatively or that are harassing to Kate. The last one he sold involving the kids was in Nov to Star mag about the contracting editor who worked for TLC. I think Jon will still grab any chance to make some $s w/the tabloids. As long as it’s not hurtful to Kate and the kids, I think that’s fine. The ones that are obsessed w/hating Kate will always sing Jon’s praises and say he is private no matter how much his actions show otherwise.
Lily said:

You say that because you really have nothing you CAN say, unless you drag out the old stuff he said a couple of years or more ago.
Lily, you are speculating about the Nov article. Or was this the article that Sage said she knew was true and for everyone to believe her because she said it. Pure speculative BS.
Carol, What a wonderful poignant comment : )
I also think if Jon could provide anything the tabloids would pay for he would go for it and I too think that’s just fine as long as it isn’t something hurtful to Kate & the kids.
Ellen hooking up with the haters was just wrong. Anyone with a brain could see that. I do believe at the time she had Jon’s blessing. I really don’t see where it got either one of them. I’m not saying she had to like Kate but hooking up with the filthy underground was wrong. She didn’t know Kate and said she never watched the show.
Waving hello to Sage. I also miss your blog!
Thanks CoCo, I have dealt with some of this in my own family and the last thing you need is other people blaming you, most of the time you spend enough time blaming yourself.
I am also waving to Sage ~ Lets start a WAVE with the section on the right.
You say that because you really have nothing you CAN say, unless you drag out the old stuff he said a couple of years or more ago. ~TCparra
/
No, I said that because we have already discussed this over and over. There have been many times you have ignored our past discussions acting like it’s the first. We’ve talked it to death.
/
No, it’s not speculative about the article in November. Do you think I imagined it? Jon hurried and sold a story to Star mag making $s off the possible victimization of his kids. It was picked up by many news sites.
So lily, you are saying that Kate had NOTHING to do with the marriage breaking up? That it was all Jon? ~TCparra
/
Nope, never said that at all. I disagreed that it takes two to destroy a relationship.
It irritates me that what starts out as a great article about Kate turns into Kate said this, Kate didn’t say that, Kate does or doesn’t do this or that. No one really knows what happened with Jon & Kate, but Jon & Kate. I realize Kate is a public figure and curiosity is always a factor, but you can not tell me that when any celebrity talks about their private life, they tell the whole story. That’s why its call private. Anyway, Can wait to read the entire Runners article. Kate looks great and I’m very happy for her.
PS: Doing my part in the Wave to Sage….Arms UP Arms DOWN.

Kate looks great in the article and I’m so happy she has something like running that she enjoys and has done so much to improve her health, appearance and well being.
——
TC….Jon’s a free man……here’s your chance to snag him. Just make sure you keep your job, dear.
Did I miss the wave???

Very nice article on Kate. I love the positive stuff. We need more of that. I do marvel that Kate can run and text at the same time. That's a skill!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Wave to Sage!!
Waving hello to Sage ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Waving back to all of you! I miss you guys. Been really busy with my job but, I always take a minute to glance at my phone to see what my friends are writing about on IW.
I am blessed…and life is good…
Sage
Sage, #18 is an example of WHY you are sorely missed!
Have to admit…my 1st thought…how does Jon fix his big tattoo…& then, w. more thought, how very, very SAD that the Gosselin 8 have to deal w.yet another type of relationship – gone kaput! (I wonder if Sylvia LaFair is still helping him in all her $$$-wisdom.)
#16, if you follow your link to the Runner’s world comments I don’t know where you are getting your counts, but 10 out of the 12 are not nice and who really cares if they are new people who are posting? They are relative to that blog and the article. ~ tcparra
.
Just read the 12 comments. Only 3 were “not nice”. So your statement is BS and drama blog material.
I just couldn’t bother responding to the BS GeeWhiz. I figured she’d just go sign up so she could leave foul comments like the other two first time commenters.
HB, LOL that is the first thing I thought of too…Jon’s tat. In my opinion, they have not been a couple for a long time. Sometimes relationships just fade away.
I wish Jon the best and I hope he takes some time to just be by himself and maybe reflect a bit.
has anyone been reading at bl’s? i don’t know what to think about it…they are discussing a twitter account that most think is NOT cara gosselin’s. but the bl has many many posts saying how *real* it looks and for every post saying why someone thinks it isn’t real bl comes up with an excuse as to why that makes it seem more real to her.
i just thought it was odd until a poster said (silimom post #183 in the donny osmond thread) was this just a plant to get people talking. i’m pretty sure she ws meaning kate or someone planted it to get people talking about kate…but i wondered why the bl was defending this to every poster as it could be real.
the bl also said that on the twitter account someone had asked *cara* if she missed filming and she said no she was glad they weren’t b/c the cameras were annoying. only the bl hopped on that none of the other posters did.
just seemed to me that bl is really courting this idea as real and i wondered why and what someone else’s take on it might be. my opinion is that it is fake…doesn’t sound like an 11 yr old to me and there are lots of incorrect dates, times, places.
glad to see you posting sage.
Kimmie, it’s interesting to see the ones who will throw their brains out the window to follow BL. She definitely leads them. They take such giant leaps to go after Kate. You are right, the fake account talks about going shopping on Boxing day and mentions a Canadian restaurant. It also has errors about Cara’s school. Ntm, Kate said it was fake. Good grief, BL is always taking her followers beyond what I believe capable. I really do wonder if she’s seeing just how far they’ll go to believe her ridiculous nonsense. She has to keep the drama up now that the show is over.
/
W/the photoshoot in RW, they analyzed it to death. Of course, it’s all wrong wrong wrong. They don’t seem to understand that others are just going to look at the pic and read the article in at most maybe 5 min (that’s giving it a lot of time) and be done w/it.
/
They are so used to it now that they don’t even think about it. They always use the argument “what kid would?” Like, “what kid likes salad?” and then run w/it as the foundation for whatever their spewing at the moment.
BL says the kids are still exploited because Kate talks about them and puts their pics on her website. She better hurry up and go after all the celebs who talk about their kids and share pics.
The kids are still exploited because Kate talks about them and puts their pics on her website? Is that one of the most stupid comments or what? Was she high when she came up with that???? Shame, shame, shame on a mother who talks about her kids and posts pictures of them on her website What is this world coming to???? LOL LOL LOL CUCKOO CUCKOO CUCKOO!!!!!!!!
I used to think the same thing Lily #74 in regards to Bl. I used to think she would pick something out of her behind and run with it just to see how far she could lead & control her readers. That no doubt she was just playing them for the thrill of having so much power over their thinking processes but now I’m not so sure and since I’m no bloggin’ head doctor I can’t give a diagnoses.
The last time I looked over there was the day Jon announced the breakup on twitter.
Get this, its the fans fault that the kids lost the best woman in their lives. Yep, its true, because of the media attention we give Ellen it just all became to much for fragile Ellen.
Just because Kate says the kids don’t have an account doesn’t mean it is 100% the truth. Remember when she told the kids mommy and daddy would be together forever? In the Faux wedding?
Please don’t copy and paste comments from another website. Thanks.
Well, I copied and pasted a couple comments to show that the BL wasn’t controlling her readers or how she was being fair about how she saw the faux twitter account may be real or could be fake, but they were deleted and not published. I guess everybody is free to keep thinking the BL is nuts because there is no counter point. You allow my comment #77, so that will upset enough people and keep the conversation going, but why not the ones about the faux account? You allowed the ones that trash the BL. I don’t see her trashing any blogs or their admins or even allowing it too much.
OK, they I will say that I read over there at the BL as well. She is not spouting that the account is real and she see’s it no other way. There were other comments Kimmie that would clearly show the BL isn’t wildly making statements that the account is real and she has points both ways.
btw, just because you defend someone or counter points made by people, doesn’t mean you want to date that person. I saw your comments about Jon’s availability and who should date him, very school yard and immature.
TCparra,
.
I could care less if you post here or if there is any conversation going on in this thread. To be honest, monitoring your comments is not my priority in running this website.
.
I don’t want the people here upset and you do upset them. I am not looking for drama here. I don’t need you to comment here.
.
It is what it is and you are free to post elsewhere.
So what are you saying? You don’t want my comments here any more?
I am saying that I don’t need you to accuse me of only allowing certain comments through to keep conversation going. I don’t care if conversation is going on the Gosselin thread. We have plenty to keep us busy elsewhere on this site.
.
I am also saying that if you don’t like the way the site is moderated, you have other options.
.
OK. Got it. But I still say that anyone who has their head in the sand should really read the BL blog before simply joining in on the gang mentality and trashing her. She has said she thinks the twitter account may be real, but she has also raised some concerns about the legitimacy of it as well. She is using facts or non facts to at least show why she thinks the way she does. There were other blogs that spent their entire day and blog space just trashing the BL. Why? Because she is a non fan and runs a non fan blog. You call her a hater, I say she is non fan. She does allow both sides of the fence comments, it’s just seems that the only fans who comment over there are full of snarky sarcasm and really don’t make any points of support or valid points at all. I guess that’s why most good blogs disclaim at the bottom about the content not being the opinion of or reflect the views of the blog owner.
No, it is absolutely a fake twitter account. In order for it to be real it needs to be verified. This is something Twitter does. If you look both Kate and Jon have verified accounts. So it’s a fake. It’s not even worth discussing. Well unless you are looking to drum up hits for the $$$.
“Head in the sand” are you for real #85 ? I have read Bl and to say she’s twisted is the nicest thing I can say about her. I’ve also read enough of what she’s written on her other blogs to get a real clear picture, Thank you very much.
Hi TC,
Have you visited the”Getting to know you” thread yet? It’s a fun positive read & a nice little break from Gosselin debate
The BL allows comments from both sides of the fence???? Since when? None of my comments have ever been allowed and they were never snarky, I simply disagreed with her.
Please, twisted is the nicest thing? Well, I guess it shouldn’t surprise me since this blog and any other pro kate blog does get it fair share of trashing by non fan blogs. Some deserve it, some don’t. Not sure how it needs to be verified to be real. Sure where celebs don’t want their name used for bogus accounts they Verify it, but a celeb or anybody can have a real account and not be verified it just depends on how much they care or if their celeb status dictates that they verify it to keep themselves out of messy situations or being accused of saying something that they never said.
“simply disagreed with her” Um, sure.. I bet you were nice and respectful and not at all sarcastic (like you are to me when you comment here or other places).
TP -
You need to do a little google on this. If it is challenged or if the celeb requests they are verified. This account has been challenged and remains unverified. Anyone that still thinks it is a real Gosselin probably thinks that the lawyer in Nigeria has $5 million dollars for them.
No matter what Kate says in any article someone will turn it around to try to make her look bad. So many said she was exploiting her kids by being on the show. The show is done so now how is she still exploiting the kids? If her having pictures and updates at her website is exploiting then I guess there is many famous people doing the same.I just am at a lose as to why anyone who dislikes Kate seems to follow everything she does just to put her down. Kate has shown she can make changes and doing well. She is raising HER KIDS as she feels best.Kate is doing things now she never thought she could do. I admire that.
Why would Kate lie about the twitter account? Nothing would be gained or lost by lying. If I had children her age, and they could access the disgusting vile crap out there about me, them or their father, you betcha my kids would have absolutely NO ACCESS to any of it. I have friends who do not allow their children on Facebook, Myspace, twitter or any of it. It’s not uncommon.
Bl’s whole case against Kate is that she’s a child exploiter.
Google ‘Child Exploitation’ and you won’t find a little family cable show. You will see real evil. I would think the twisted Bl wouldn’t throw that word around so easily since on her other site she caters to perves with birth fetishes. Makes money off babies that have NO say in the matter.
Oh Deborah, there you go bringing the other site into the mix. What makes you think everybody who looks at the site is a perv? How many times have you looked at it? Does that mean you are a perv? She was exploiting those kids when they were on the show. She tried minimizing the effect by saying they “were playing in front of the camera’s while she worked” THAT is laughable and ridiculous, but whatever, they are her kids to do as she see’s fit. TLC cancelled her show so she has learned that the public didn’t want to see just Kate, they wanted Kate, the kids AND Jon (based on ratings).
Kate still doesn’t get it, the fans are what made her and she still doesn’t want to be around them (her visit at the Grove was a good example. She didn’t want to take pictures with the fans, but her body guard, I mean Road manager, told her to do it and smile). What will she do on the cruise when the paying public fans, however many there are, want to be next to her?
TC could you please explain why something Jon said or did three yrs ago should never be talked about or mentioned but something Kate said or did five yrs. ago shoiuld still be used against her? If you think that the BL or Polly either one allows any comments in support of Kate you are dead wrong. I tried a couple of times and I said nothing rude or snarky and they never saw the light of day.
Thank you Carol. I knew I wasn’t the only one!
I too tried to comment at Bl’s and no, my reasonable comment never saw the light of day but some foolish pro comment made it through at the same time. I wasn’t surprised though Bl is a former GwoPer and she learned from the mods there what pro fan comments to allow and what not to allow.
TC….”Kate still doesn’t get it, the fans are what made her and she still doesn’t want to be around them (her visit at the Grove was a good example. She didn’t want to take pictures with the fans, but her body guard, I mean Road manager, told her to do it and smile”
——-
Can you tell us where you got that? I’ve never seen any story about that situation anywhere.
#96, I see you didn’t google ‘Child Exploitation’. You will find more there relating to Bl and nothing about Kate. Give it a try Tc. It could be a real eye opener for you.
Marie,
Just so you know-Jon’s twitter account is not verified, and IF Cara did have a twitter account, why would it have be verified to be real?
Its true, Jon’s account is not verified. I remember he tried for awhile to get it verified and whoever is in charge of it wouldn’t verify him.
I remember some people were in a stink that Kate’s account WAS verified.
addie -
Jon’s account was verified a long time ago. There were about 10 Jon G and he had it verified since some of the imposters were creating lots of problems. It hasn’t been marked verified since he went private. Anyone can request account verification. So if this isn’t Cara, Kate or you can request verification of a public name. I have $5 million in a bank account that I can’t get out of Nigeria and I’m hoping you can help me with it. I’ll pay you 20% of the final dollar amount for your trouble.
Watch the online clips of her at the Grove and read the blogs. She is hesitant to play nice with her fans, but her road manager showed her the light. Come to think of it, maybe it IS a smart move having him along to be her road manager. Why does she get so freaked out when a fan wants a picture? Remember the road trip from hell and she asked Steve if he was going to take care of that person who was shooting pics and Steve said no he wasn’t going to take care of it. I would understand her fear, IF that family was never in front of the cameras or she protected her kids privacy like a lot of real celebs do. You can’t have it both ways, hate the public and public pictures, but still want the public to adore you. The fans make you and can break you. A few obsessive fans will not keep you famous.
Wow, Marie, was the snark really necessary? All I did was ask you a question. I don’t believe that it is Cara, never said I did-I just asked why it would have to be verified to be real.
I don’t have a twitter account, and I thought it was a legitimate question.
addie,
Maybe the reason Jon’s is not verified, things that were posted on his account wasn’t
really him. That way Jon can plead to his kids, it wasn’t him saying nasty things.. If Cara’s account is fake, Kates legal team can take care of it. Maybe Kate didn’t know she had an account, maybe someone else set this up who is now out of the picture. See, anything is possible.
If the real Cara opened a twitter accont, would twitter verify her? Isn’t she too young to have a twitter account?
TC,
So suri cruise is exploited, she is in every rag almost weekly and her parents don’t hide her from the press. Man, would you be ticked if Kate and the kids were on TV again. I see child actors all the time on TV, what do you watch on TV?? Why are you so obsessed with Kate?? Why does it bother you so much?? What do you have to gain in your personal life and commenting on Kate?? Really, you need a hobby!
Addie -
I’m sorry but I made my position clear in my comment. If you still think that this is a discussable issue then I think you believe those nigerian lawyers. It wasn’t snark it was the result of questioning. I told you what I thought of people that questioned it. You asked for it – you got it. If you really want to get more savvy on the internet google twitter verification, googled twitter fakes etc.
#105, How can you be sure Kate wasn’t asking Steve if he was sure they had time for pictures. Were you or any of the rags there to know WHAT they were talking about ?
I’m pretty sure the only reason Kate asked Steve about the person taking pictures on the road trip is because they were filming at the time and it has to do with if they’re filming or not.
Same as when they were filming in SC at the beach when Steve asked a lady on the beach to delete a picture or video she was recording of them. It doesn’t make sense to have videos or pictures of something that is being reserved for film already on the net now does it.
I watched the clips. Saw Kate smiling, talking to people……..I can’t read lips but nobody knows for sure what Steve was telling her…..maybe “pictures with fans for about 5 minutes then we need to go…..”? You don’t know anymore than I do what was going on. You just can’t stand Kate so you choose to paint an ugly picture of her.
——
BTW……so what is your opinion of Jon lying to the public by telling the rag mags he absolutely wouldn’t be with Ellen this long if he didn’t intend to marry her……THEN DUMPED HER!
Kmom2.
Jon lie?? LOL.
Wow, I just Googled ‘twitter verification’ and if you aren’t important enough it can cost $15,000 bucks. Maybe this was the problem Jon was having.
Shocker, huh Snickers……..lol
Deborah -
You can’t get verification right now. $15K or $100K. If you had it and make a change to your profile you lose the badge. The program was beta. It’s on ‘break’ right now. They suggest that you link to a verifiable website in the mean time.
Keep Googling!
MarieS, I don’t ever remember Jon’s account being verified. I googled it before and remember there was some process they had to go through, like a link to their blog. I remember he finally tweeted a pic holding up a sign of his twitter name. There are celebs out there who aren’t verified. Melissa Gilbert was on there quite awhile and just recently became verified. I once again find myself feeling sorry for any of BL’s clients if she couldn’t tell right away that the Cara account was fake w/the Canadian references and spellings. She must be a real whiz in the courtroom.
The show is over but BL and others still think they know every little thing about the family. I wondered what would happen once the show was off. I doubt they will ever be able to let go over their obsession of hating Kate. I saw on twitter that one of them is using an avatar of the Costa Concordia on its side in the ocean. Tacky much? They look insane on her twitter page and BL’s is right behind them in the crazy line.
BL depends on her blog to pay her bills, she needs her sheeple for hits! No one would ever hire her for a real job. Anyone can be registered for anything on-line, but never set foot in a courtroom, etc. Look at your local lawyers, Doctors etc on line, do you see them having hate blogs.
Oops I forgot part. MarieS, I meant to add, of course, I could have missed it. I just remember the pic he tweeted holding up his twitter name. I started reading him more right before he blocked a bunch of us, before I even thought of twittering. I just used my account to follow people then. Never thought I would become a tweeter, but I have.
Snickers, your comments smack of a school yard bully. You pick and pick and run. You have no idea of BL job status, just like none of us know Kate’s jobs or events.
Hobby? You seem to be just as obsessed with protecting Kate or trashing Jon and telling anybody who doesn’t tow the line with you that they don’t know what they are talking about. I may have made some sarcastic/snarky comments, but I’m not telling people to basically get a life (as you are).
How in the world do you think the BL blog is paying her bills? You have no idea and are just “throwing stuff out there to see what sticks”. I guess we’ll never know who owns blogs, hate or not and profession of the owner either.
Ask yourself the same thing… what do you have to gain by being so obsessed with Kate?
I remember Sage keeping tabs on Jon trying to get verified. I just don’t think it ever happened.
I believe part of the deal w. Twitter ‘verifying’ is…you can not switch to ‘protected’. With the help of the media, Jon was able to get his cute pic published to announce his official Twitter account.
LOL Sheesh……
Didn’t Jon use his twitter account to advertise for different companies? I seem to remember something about Quiznos, I can remember before he went protected people saying they were going to stop following him cause all he was doing was trying to sell stuff. Something like that.
Yeah, I can remember him holding up that sign saying it was him but I still don’t think he ever got verified. Sage would know.
For what it’s worth, Jon found out that he was tweeting things on Twitter that were not compliant w. court orders. Enter: Sylvia LaFair & Kate’s lawyer having to wrestle w. ROL! Once Ellen put out the mission statement…to close down K+8, didn’t their Twitter accounts go ‘protected’?
I can’t say I remember it just like that HB something about a squabble with a tabloid does ring a bell.
Anyone ask BL for proof that it’s Cara’s twitter?
-
When I followed Jon, it was a verified account
-
113-good question! I’m assuming that if Jon was speaking publicly about marrying Ellen, he also discussed it with his kids, did he lie then too?
-
TC what does Kate have to gain by lying about it being Cara’s twitter? FYI this isn’t the first twitter account in one of the kids names, what makes this one so authentic?
Thanks Marnie, I never followed Jon and never knew he was ever verified. So he just lost his little blue check because he went private.
Marnie …….oh my goodness gracious……surely you are joking about the BL’s minions asking her for PROOF????? Lol now that’s some funny stuff right there!
———
Now the best way to tell if Jon is lying is if his lips are moving. That is a sure sign for him.
tc parra; if you read at the bl’s you’d know and if you were being truthful you’d have to agree that for every post stating why they thought the cara account was fake the bl came right on and gave reasons why it still could be real and that reason wasn’t viable to it being fake.
TODAY bl says that she is leaning towards the cara account being fake. there are a couple of posters who are adamantly bringing up inconsistencies about the cara account and one has even questioned why bl wants that account to be real and that she should just let it go.
i saw a picture of jon on a twitter acct a year or so ago holding a sign that said it’s really me and that twitter account name. i think that’s how his account was verified.
i also agree that bl is stretching to keeping posters posting there and is getting into the discussions more and more. i think she is wringing every drop of discussion she can over every topic she can.
bl is on moderation and none of my posts go through. they adhere to all the *rules* but they aren’t posted. only a few times has she put the board on no moderation. that is not a board where posters are welcome despite their points of view. the posters there like to think so b/c she lets an alternate view go through every now and again to give them that illusion. considering the amount of posts that tc has on this board it should be crystal clear that this site allows discussion and posts that are diverse are welcomed for discussion.
TC,
I don’t beat up on Kate, run and trash Jon on his twitter, believe everything written, but you seem to forget, the things mentioned here are things Jon put out to the media himself. I just believe Kate has the right to work and take care of her children anyway she wants. If being on TV, promoting products, wants a family show, go for it. She certainly doesn’t need to bow to you so your life is full filled.
Sorry, I don’t post and run, but dear I do have a life.
Amazing. Someone says they love someone and want to marry them, as evidenced by the length of their relationship. But hold on a minute, things don’t work out and they break up? Isn’t that how life works? Things change and people change. Sometime things work out and sometimes they don’t. Does that make someone a LIAR because they don’t follow through with the feelings they had in their heart? What if they did get married and then divorced because they weren’t honest to THEMSELVES (not you or me)?
TC, if you refer to your comment in #77 regarding Kate telling the kids that mommy and daddy would be together forever, you’ll see that it’s evident that you have different for rules for Kate than you do Jon.
I happen to agree with you Tc #134, and I think that’s how Jon & Kate felt when renewing their vows in Hawaii, hopping that is was going to work even tho they were already seeing cracks.
I don’t believe Jon was lying when he said that about his relationship with Ellen any more then I believed Kate lied.
Life happens and people change. Doesn’t matter who they are.
Nobody seems be calling Jon a lair and he took the vows with Kate & the kids that Kate took.
tc – Why do you believe everything that is posted at the drama hate blogs you love? There is no way you or your idol blog owners can tell what Kate and Steve were DISCUSSING. She DID NOT frown or look disgusted. She enjoyed taking pictures with her FANS.
.
Can’t believe you have the nerve to call anyone immature or a school yard bully. Your rant on that drama hate blog where you tell me and others to F ourselves shows you are not only immature but CRUDE. BTW, why are you so upset Jon dumped Ellen?
Bottom line, I thought discussing other blogs here was frowned on? I only mention that she (the B/L) has let other opinions through, every so often or not, but I’m not trashing the blog. Why you feel your comments are not getting through over there, I have no idea. I have seen pro Kate comments, albeit only a few. But how she moderates her blog is her business, just as it is here and any other blog.
I have been reminded more than once to not talk about or bring comments over here from other blogs. I am not obsessed with nor do I follow Kate’s every move. I know that is hard for some to believe who are such fans of her and her parenting style.
I have opinions and I blog about them. Sometimes I say things that fans hate or wish I would’ve kept to myself. Does that make me obsessive? NO. I don’t tweet or stalk Kate’s twitter time line or read her blog or look for every comment out there on the web. I have even reduced my reading of a certain drama blog and it’s 4 commentors.
Why in the world would I be upset that they broke up? Life happens. I am more disgusted that some blogs feel like dancing on the grave of that relationship and that they seem to know everything about Ellen and why she does or did things. I’m not invested enough in the whole drama that is K/J/E to profess that I know who sold stories, who’s “camp” started things, that I know Jon was just so evil to Kate & the kids (still waiting for some solid proof of this, not hyperbole) or that Ellen wanted to replace Kate (that is the funniest one yet).
Two things, TCparra. No one was commenting about Jon and Ellen’s breakup until your brought it up. But I believe you take the stance that Jon should not be talked about because he is private. The BL topic would have died also if you hadn’t kept it alive.
.
Personally, I absolutely prefer not to discuss Bl or how she runs her blog in depth. This would be a good point not to discuss it anymore.
#127, isn’t that a lot of rumor? Where did Ellen put out such a “mission Statement”? Why would the be beneficial to Jon or Ellen?
Where or how do you think you know what the courts ordered ANYBODY? Most are sealed or private. Other than the transcripts that ROL had when Jon was in trouble, 3 years ago, I have not seen (nor should I have) any court doc’s describing anything close to what they can and can’t say. I know there are a couple blogs who like to say things like “the courts shut her up” or “she got smacked by the courts”, but again those are just nonsense comments that have no validity, except in the posters mind.
Pam, in my comment # 6 I said I was glad this blog took the high road about it. That’s it. I guess that was enough for some to see an opening and took it and trash them.
tc – Maybe you should reread your rant as it indicated you were upset. Why is it your drama hate blogs can talk about Kate all they want but you have a conniption fit if a support blog discusses Jon?
.
Go thru the archives of this blog and you will see solid proof of what Jon did to his family. Ellen was asking for help to get the kids off TV. That indicates she was TRYING to be their mother. She also had posted on her facebook about being a step mom. Keep up. Spoon feeding you is getting old.
.
“those are just nonsense comments that have no validity, except in the posters mind.” tcparra
.
That sentence describes you and your drama hate blogs to a tee.
There you go again, “she got smacked from the court”. Please, Google is your best friend. That’s twitter talk.
Asking for help to get the kids off TV does NOT indicate she was trying to be their mom. That is a BIG stretch and ridiculous all by itself. Getting the kids off TV was a good thing, except for the obsessive fans who wanted to see them. Those kids should lead a normal life at some point and NOT be the support of Kate. As you have seen, without the kids Kate can’t really be as successful as she wants in the media.
IF she posted about being a stepmom, so what? Maybe she had hopes of becoming their step mom at some point. (Please, save the definition of Stepmom for somebody else. It doesn’t mean she was hell bent on controlling their lives either) Love was in the air? Who cares? It doesn’t mean she thought she could replace Kate. But I guess if you twist it just right, you can make any comment sound the way you want it to.
A conniption because I debate or discuss? OoooooKKK.
Solid proof huh? Well, depends on what you define as solid proof. If Speculating and twisting comments to meet your end is solid proof, then I guess so. Reading your sarcastic comments (here and elsewhere)
GeeWhiz #143, TC knows. Someone even dug up the Ellen’s boycott letter to show her when she asked for proof. She’s asked this Ellen and Jon question many times.
/
Lily, you are speculating about the Nov article. Or was this the article that Sage said she knew was true and for everyone to believe her because she said it. Pure speculative BS. ~TC
/
TC, Here you’re referring to a comment I made as possibly being BS. It’s rude. When I tell you that it’s true, I kind of expect the rudeness to end. But you just keep going. Just to let you know, I’m choosing not to discuss anymore G topics with you. It’s tiresome and sucks all of the fun out of it for me.
pam #140. i’m sorry i commented on j/e break up in the previous thread.
i will apologize as well for bringing up the discussion at bl’s about the cara twitter account.
Twitter talk? More like Drama blog talk. I have NEVER asked for or seen any boycott letter from Ellen. So that statement would be deceitful as I don’t remember anyone showing me a letter. I know a few keep saying that google is your friend, blah, blah, blah and I WAS provided a link to the court doc transcripts on ROL where TLC was suing Jon.
Although, in the end, who cares except the obsessive fans who can’t live without Kate and the kids in their lives.
Lily, how far up the thread did I say that? I thought you already discussed that earlier up thread?
Millions & Millions of people all over the world.. post pictures, videos & talk about their kids on the internet. Every single hour of every single day!
Does that mean we are all exploiting our kids or is it just a sign of the times?
tc #148 the bl had a post about ellen asking people to boycott the show so tlc would let the kids out of their contract early.
Momsby,
Oh the shame that you share pics of your children with friends and family. Yes, anyone can see them if you post them on twitter. I guess some peole want to live in the dark ages and complain about Kate. As my Dad used to say “100 years from now, no one will care”.
)
Pam,
I’m confused, what are the rules again?? Can we talk about J/E??
Yes, Snick for all I know a company in Yemen googled family with 4 blondes & a redhead & is using my family pictures to sell shampoo
Deb, I don’t remember Jon ever getting verified on twitter. I too, remember the sign he held up.
Anyone else notice that TC has been asked twice to explain her double standard about Kate and Jon and why things in the past should be brought about Kate but not Jon or why relationships end with Jon but Kate is lying she just ignores it and never responds.It’s that kind of Jon worship and complete irrationality of the Kate haters that keeps me speaking up for Kate.
I also think that TC is just trying to cause the supporters here to just get disgusted and give up,please don’t let her do this to you ladies.
Kimmie, it’s fine. There is nothing wrong with discussing “Cara’s” twitter account. I really don’t want comments copied and pasted here from other sites but discussing something from another site is fine from time to time. But I would however, like to not have the BL’s site be the focus of the discussion in these Gosselin threads.
.
TCparra, there is a huge difference between discussing something being said on another site from time to time and your need to come here to constantly bash another blog owner and the people that post there. Especially since some of the people that post there also post here. And you know it. I also think your need to defend BL kept that discussion going. It otherwise would have faded a lot sooner.
.
I really don’t have a problem with anyone discussing the Jon and Ellen breakup. Jon announced it. It was news related to the Gosselin thread. I was just pointing out to TCparra that no one brought it up until posted about it.
.
Again, I would like to say that we really don’t need or want tons of comments in this thread. A decision to allow or not allow a comment is not based on whether it will keep the discussion going. I am good with 10 positive comments as opposed to 200 drama filled comments.
Carol I have noticed that since TC started commenting here, and I have to agree with you that it is that kind of creepy irrationality that keeps me speaking up for Kate. In fact it’s what drew me into the Gosselin blogging world to begin with. I was astounded at the level of hate spewed by these people against a woman they never met. I mean, even IF anything they said about Kate was true, it’s not like it effects their lives in ANY WAY so why all the effort to destroy another woman?? Let alone the few that spent time and money to create blogs specifically designed to destroy Kate. That’s a tremendous amount of effort as far as I’m concerned. I realize everyone can have an opinion, but these sick people go so far beyond an “opinion” it boggles the mind. If some do this because they enjoy it, or it entertains them I have to wonder what is so wrong with their lives that hatred like THIS is enjoyable to them. I think TC is under the mistaken impression she can change minds here. One thing is for sure, she will never admit her double standard for Kate, or her extreme hero worship of Jon. Sad really.
Kate confirmed on Twitter today that Mady and Cara are going on the cruise. I hope they all have a wonderful time.

Aww, what fun for Cara & Mady to get to go. They will have Kate all too themselves.

You can take that comment and switch the names and it will work for just about any fan as well. Have a nice Monday all!

Nope, It’s Wednesday. LOL
They will have their mom when she isn’t full filling her cruise obligations. Will they be required to do them as well or will they get to be kids and have fun? Where will Steve stay now that the kids are going to be there?
LoL Pam, I guess it can feel like a Monday when dealing with how to face harsh realities.
Did the attack on Kate happen yet for only taking 2 of the kids?
The younger kids get very sea sick and would not be good for them to
go anyways.
Sorry, brain freeze when typing. Happy Wednesday to all.
I heard from the very beginning two of the girls would be cruising with Kate.
Wishing them a fab time would be a good first step Tc.

TC what makes you think Steve has to make alternate arrangements because of children attending?
-
The Gosselin kids have always looked like they were having fun, what makes you think a cruise vacation wouldn’t be fun for kids?
Hey Marnie…not yet I don’t think……they are busy planning a boycott of Coffee Mate because that’s what Kate said she uses in her coffee! LOL
——-
TC ” Where will Steve stay now that the kids are going to be there?” Spoken like a true disciple of the Jon-Gosselin-create-rumor-to-deflect-from-one’s-own-affairs” school of though.
If she is advertising the kids are coming, it’s meant to entice the “fans” to sign up. I meant will they be allowed to explore and play and just be kids or will the be required to tag along when does her cruise activities?
Funny how easy it is to twist something to sound useful when you want to deflect. anyone who thinks that Steve and Kate’s relationship isn’t strange has their head in the sand and don’t want to see the obvious. Whatever though, Steve was an integral part of what upset Jon. He said it and I can understand if he felt that way and Kate didn’t want to change then she clearly didn’t care what her spouse was saying. I know, I know, it’s old stuff but since Steve is still there it’s still relevant.
Although, in the end, who cares except the obsessive fans who can’t live without Kate and the kids in their lives. ———–pretty sure that puts you in the ‘obsessive fan’ category since it’s blatantly obvious how much you care and invest yourself in all of it
Again….You CHOOSE to paint an ugly picture of Steve and Kate. Just like you CHOOSE to see negative/ugly things in everything Kate says or does. I have never seen anything to indicate more than a brother-sister type relationship between the two and as much as these two are photographed together, an affair would become evident at some point. But it’s not no matter how much non-fans try to twist it. NOBODY is that good at sneaking around. Jon was JEALOUS of Kate traveling. He has admitted he didn’t like staying home being Mr. Mom while she was out doing book signings, and giving speeches. Yet Jon agreed to all of it. He stated he didn’t like doing all the publicity so Kate took care of that. Then because of his extreme immaturity and his own guilty conscience he manufactured a reason to question it. JON HAS ADMITTED he threw the whole affair scenario out there even though it wasn’t true. I mean how much more do you people need to believe it was never and is not now a “relationship”?? Jon should have had more trust in Kate, but it doesn’t take a rocket scientist to figure out the one doing the accusing is ALWAYS the one doing the cheating, and we now know that is exactly the truth in that situation.
—–
As far as the twins go, unless they were with a trusted adult, they would be right with me. No way would I let them go explore by themselves.
Have you ever been on a cruise, vacation or trip TC? Furthermore, do you honestly believe that the Gosselin kids don’t get enough time to play? Even in peak filming days they still were kids and playing, while being kids. What make should believe they haven’t had ample opportunity to be kids? You’re twisting 2 separate issues to suit your own agenda. You’re also shoving your beliefs down people’s throats. The Gosselin kids may not have had a typical childhood, and it may not be normal by many people’s standards, but it doesn’t make it wrong. By default, they aren’t typical or normal just being higher order multiples. Unless you have some proof that the kids are irrevocably damaged and abnormal having leade the life they have, your rants are nothing more than judgements, and in case you haven’t clued in yet, Kate doesn’t have to raise her kids according to your definition of normal.
Wonder of Jon cared about Kate’s feelings when he decided to relive his 20s? Right, I know, old news. Why the new to blatantly contradict yourself and apply a different set of rules TC?
I also have to giggle at haters who claim there is most definitely something going on with Kate and Steve, the only ‘proof’ being that he is photographed with Kate, ignoring that he’s been hired to be just that. Yet scream blue murder if anyone says Jon had an affair, despite more ‘proof’ being out there, more so than Kate and Steve evidence, but somehow it’s not enough to convince self proclaimed highly educated and smart haters. The lack of common sense amuses me.
176- new is need. I will never understand iPad auto correct. It does amuse me a lot though. Damnyouautocorrect.com is so funny to me!
Tc, Do you really think these pre teens girls (Cara & Mady) would do anything on this cruise they don’t want to do, whatever part they playing in this trip I’m sure has been explained to them. What kind of a result would any mother expect if you tried force a pre teen to do anything they don’t want to do.
Surely if one of them didn’t want to be a part of it Jon would step in for the child.
Wouldn’t you think if there was a affair going on with Steve & Kate the kids would have picked up on it by now and told Jon ? Even if they could fool the public for this long do you really think they could fool the kids.
Do you really think Jon would keep quite about it. It would be his Ah Ha moment. A chance to redeem himself.
You don’t have much faith in Jon if you think he wouldn’t step in if Kate wasn’t a great mother to them.
Haters also forget that Steve is married. Surely if it’s so obvious that there is an affair happening, for years, his wife would catch on.
-
Yep if Jon were as great a father as haters make him out to be, surely he would shelter his children from Kate’s abuse. The man doesn’t even petition for more custody, that says more about his faith in Kate’s parenting ability than haters will ever admit
Not sure why the twins going on the cruise is news. That was reported when the cruise was announced. Also I see some idiots are still saying that people will have to pay thousands to cruise with Kate. What they fail to mention is that people will have to pay thousands to cruise period. This cruise is the same price as the same itinerary 2 weeks later. Why don’t people get angry when they’re treated like idiots? It’s like some blogs/news etc. know that most people are too stupid to look something up on the internet. Google is your friend.
TC……In all seriousness I would love an answer to why things are ok for Jon, but not Kate. Seriously. I can’t wrap my brain around the illogical reasoning of the double standard for the two of them. I mean I know when you hate someone or are a “non-fan” you tend to discredit/belittle all that is said or done by that person especially if this is your only form of entertainment/amusement. But in the grand scheme of things what are your answers to this question? Also, if by some chance all the bad you believe of Kate were to be proven true what would you gain? Would you get a raise at work IF Kate really lied? Would you be given a nice new home IF Kate really lied? Would you be guaranteed perfect health for the rest of your life because Kate really was a bitch? Would you or your family never have to want for anything in life IF Kate and Steve did have an affair?
You are entitled to your opinion, but you act as if we aren’t because we don’t agree with you.

Jon went private because he had NO CHOICE. Nobody was interested in him, in fact one Hollywood producer called him the most hated man in the business and would only cast him if he had a story where he wanted the audience to IMMEDIATELY HATE that character. Jon had to go private because he couldn’t pay someone to work with him. I totally agree with Deborah, if there was any truth to the whole Steve/Kate affair rumor Jon would be the first and loudest screaming “I TOLD YOU SO!!!”

I don’t worship Kate. But I will continue to speak out in her defense from the crap that is unfairly made up and spewed at her by people that have nothing better to do.

…
And after all this time if the paps don’t have a picture of ANYTHING. ROL doesn’t have a sext. NN doesn’t have a sworn statement witnessing them in the act. Then it ain’t true and never was.
hey tc, i just had an idea- why don’t you start your own blog?? you could repeat over and over your praise of jon, ellen, bl etc. i’m sure there would be many non fans who would have another spot to express their dislike of kate, their admiration of jon along with you. and it would allow some folks on this blog to return the favor of repeating over and over an argument. works for me because no matter what the discussion on this site you always seem to bring it back and insist on repeating and repeating the same idea. i know i can skip over you but you’ll be right there 2 comments down beating the same old drum. maybe also instead of debating which involves pushing a point of view whether you believe it or not and start expressing your opinion and leave it to the reader whether they want to comment.
re the double standard for jon and kate; what i find odd is that the haters are completely willing to make jon a saint and forgive his past, what he’s said and done, but as far as kate is concerned if she said something once 8 years ago and changes her mind (due to difference in time, circumstances, situations) they say she is lying. people change their minds, careers, family circumstances all the time it doesn’t mean they are lying…just that things have changed from their previous stance.
thanks pam, gotcha!
anyone seen pattypie?
I find it extremely odd too, Kimmie and you notice after this double standard is pointed out to them, they retreat and re-group to find something else Kate does to gripe about it. I asked for a answer but I really already know the answer. They hate Kate. Plain and simple. So nothing she does now, nothing she’s done in the past and nothing she will do in the future will make them happy or re-think their positions. I think it would be awful to be that close minded and cut off from reality. Again, I don’t worship Kate, but I will speak out in her defense when I feel it’s warranted.
I feel a need to jump in here.
When it comes to the reg. non fans I can kinda relate.
I have a real aversion to our politicians, both parties. I won’t go into it here but I’m totally turned off, all I see is evil. When I read something about any of them I don’t bother to search it out. In my mind I’ve already judged it.
Since I’m so turned off I’m closed minded and have kept myself ignorant.
Now I’m not going to jump into a debate about it, I’d just show my ignorance.
I can’t help but think that’s the mentally of a lot of non fans/haters.
hmmm, Scratch that, it didn’t come out right. LoL
kmom i agree. i just don’t understand how anyone can NOT see that we all change our minds/actions because our lives and circumstances are always changing and we adjust as they do. i KNOW that these same women have done the same thig in their own lives. no one remains the same…lol…even old archie bunker changed in the last shows. lol
deborah i do get what you are saying. i think the difference is that these same haters who (in this one example) say how much jon has changed, and who have had to have changed in some areas of their own lives, hold kate to everyting she hs ever said…KNOWING LIFE CHANGES FOR ALL OF US!!!
there really isn’t any research that needs to be done to know that kate is the same as all of us. take fast food gate. once, several years ago, when kate was a stay at home mom, cooked, was always there for their snacks etc. said that her kids would never eat fast food.
a few years later she is no longer a stay at home mom, she has book signings, their lives are busy, she gets the kids fast food. all of a sudden kate is a liar. lol.
same thing with buying milk. back then it made sense for what kate said…somehow this means the g kids never get milk cause kate won’t buy it. it would be hilarious if it wasn’t so sad in its implications.
i do understand that they hate kate and nothing she will ever do will be ok. what i mainly don’t get is why they think they have a right to decide what she does which is a whole ‘nother topic. lol
I love when a hater says you can’t freeze milk or it turns watery. LOL. I have froze milk for years, saved many trups to the store when the weather was nasty. Either they don’t buy milk, they don’t have freezers, or they run to the store each time they need it. You can freeze milk, and it will be fine. I’m surprised they didn’t boycott the milk companies. LOL
TC, jealousy is your enemy!
snickers, what the hell are you talkng about? Jealousy? Please. Jealous of people hating on me 24/7? No thanks! Double standards do work both ways. Jon said he wanted to be private and heaven help him if he ever says anything again. He’s not entitled to open his mouth or dispute or whatever. YET, kate can do it 24/7 on her favorite chat room twitter and she is the god send for all her fans.
BTW: milk does get nasty if frozen. It does seperate. But remember, Kate did say once she only bought organic and that is very pricey stuff. But hey, she can change her mind right, just like Jon. Double standard be dammed.
PS: I am not required to answer any questions or comments so give it up. If I feel like responding to your inquiries to me, I will. Just like you feel the need to respond when I comment sometimes.
Just because people comment on Kate and what she does DOESN’T mean people want to control her lift. It’s called comments. not dictatorship.
Sorry TC, you are jealous,imo. You rag on Kate to the point of the puke bucket for me. Jon disliked the fact that Kate moved on without his name attached to hers. Kate does not come here to make any us of support her, but you storm in here and want everyone to know that you are the official spokesman for Jon. Let Jon post here for himself. Jon’s a big boy now, he moved out of his 20′s now,for the time being. Jon doesn’t dispute in public, he hides behind his twitter account. That’s fine, he knows how to bully, just like a little kid.
Sorry, you must have bought old milk. You don’t store it for months, maybe a couple of weeks. Whateva, you always know the best of everything.
moved on without his name? What the hell is Gosselin? That would be his name. If she moved on, why not drop it and go back to maiden name? You sure are spouting about Jon for not wanting to hear about him. Hides behind his twitter and bullies? See that is BS comments that make no sense. I’m sure in your mind, thats how he tries to “destroy Kate and the kids” You don’t like Jon and in your mind you can’t see anything that makes sense about him. GOOD FOR YOU. Again though, I am not jealous and could care less how many times you say it. I wouldn’t want people to despise me and tweet me the things she gets. I didn’t say I knew everytihing, I just said freezing it not good. Thats why there are expire dates on it.
official spokes person for Jon? PUUUULEEASE! I just offer up opisite views than you spout
TC,
Calm down, the sun will come out tomorrow. Have a nice evening.
))
TC….you missed an important part of Snickers post that read “moved on without his name ATTACHED to hers.” Meaning Kate has made a name for herself, not as a part of “Jon and Kate” People know who Kate Gosselin is without Jon. And as far as dropping the Gosselin name Kate has addressed that too. I haven’t went back to my maiden name since my divorce 11 years ago simply out of respect for my children. I told them I would keep the last name as long as they were in school. Which is exactly the reason Kate stated and I know of 3 other women that have done the same thing. It’s not uncommon.
—–
And you are right, you dont have to respond to every question. But that shows first off how weak and out of touch with reality your arguments truly are and second your extreme dislike of all things Kate without regard to logic or truth. Besides, I do know the answer to the question, I just have a hard time believing people with brains truly think like that, even though I have plenty of evidence that they do.
——
Deborah, I understand exactly what you mean. When a person doesn’t like someone be it a celebrity or politician or whatever. It’s just easier to believe all the bad about them and since a person has this dislike for said celeb/politician the chances of spending time to find out if any of the stories are true or not is highly unlikely. I am that way about Obama. Don’t like him, never have liked him, never will like him, but I certainly wouldn’t waste my time arguing with his supporters. I have better things to do.
I know that people think that you can do and say anything you want on twitter but … It’s worth mentioning that the FBI has arrested a teenage girl that made threats against Taylor Armstrong and her daughter. They said she had mental problems.
I always figured all those Kate haters on twitter had mental problems.
MarieS, I read about that last night also. I think that it is just taking law enforcement some time to figure out all of this social media and to have some laws to support them when they make an arrest. Eventually, Twitter will probably need to be more responsible also.
Radar On Line is reporting that Jon has a new gal pal. I read the story and I think it looks like two friends meeting for drinks.
LOL….Ok…who had “Jon has a new girlfriend” in the pool of reasons why Private Jon publically announced his break up with Erin? Stubby sure doesn’t waste time finding a new victim, does he? lol lol
LMAO kmom.
I wonder if Erin is going to blast him for moving on so fast? (if it’s true)
Kmom, your “stubby” comment is so disrespectful and now makes very clear your line of thinking. I call BS to your reasoning about the last name and could care less what BS Kate tried feeding everybody, she is keeping it because she knows she can market herself better keeping the name that made her famous. People would say “who is Krieder” if she did go back to her maiden.
Oh puleeze, this is Jon. He moved on before Erin moved out. Once a cheater always a cheater. Why would Erin be the first partner that he didn’t cheat on.
You ask why I defend Jon. Well, these last few comments are good enough reason. There was talk by ELLEN & Jon that they didn’t live together. Why do you assume he is cheating? Wouldn’t that be a real good reason to announce they broke up? To prevent BS stories from clueless people who make up stuff and run with it?
kmom2 used a little snark. She snarked a bit. I believe that is acceptable at other sites you visit, tcparra? Why not here?
LOL…..I used the word “stubby” because I knew it would set you off for one thing, but when Jon publically comes out and denounces the hatred spewed at the mother of his children and calls for and END TO IT….I will quit any disrespectful comments about the man-child. And by the way, the haters also make some of the most vile, disgusting and hateful comments about HIS CHILDREN TOO and he sits back and says NOTHING! I do agree with you about keeping the last name to a certain extent. It’s smart business decision. But I also know it’s not the only reason she kept it.
Jon did tweet awhile back that he & Ellen don’t live together.
I get the drift Jon has been working his way out of his relationship with Ellen for awhile now.
It seems with each relationship he’s getting better with how he conducts himself in public and that can be tricky.
I assume he’s cheating since he has never NOT cheated. I would think assuming that a serial cheater stopped is the very definition of clueless. But I know those clueless women are out there otherwise he would never get the next victim.
I agree Deborah, as far as I can tell I think Jon handled himself in a respectful manner with this breakup. Not that my opinion should matter but I will give it anyway, lol. He seems to be really learning from his life lessons. I think for most people, a lot of that happens in your 30s.
I don’t think kissing and rubbing his leg and back would be a causal date. Looks like the smoke break together tells us that Jon is still into his bad habits.
You can bet he had this gal lined up before he dumped Ellen. Jon said they went their separate ways and will always be best friends, but that’s his story.
KMOM, you don’t get it do you? Jon doesn’t need to come out and defend Kate against ANYTHING. She brings on the hate herself, all by herself. Why does he have to make a stand against her haters? Calls for an end, ha ha ha ha. That would mean Jon cares about her and he has made it clear she is a big girl and can deal with crap herself. I don’t read the twitter stuff and really don’t believe that people are vile towards the kids. If they are, what is he going to do that will make him less culpable? IF it happens, it happens.
It doesn’t really matter, but I disagree. I have sons a little younger than Jon and they have female friends that they will meet for drinks and they are not in a relationship with them. They also have female friends who like to be very hands on.
Marie, clueless is EXACTLY what your comment is. That is PURE gossip and just helps you feel better about calling him names. Serial cheater? Wasn’t Kate the only one he allegedly cheated on?
IF you read the ROL gossip story, it said she came in the door and they kissed. That doesn’t mean they were in the back room making out or doing it in the coat room. WOW, I guess this is the perfect gift for the fan who is missing some juicy gossip to run with and laugh about.
No TP – your comment is clueless. He cheated on every women since Kate as well. Google it. There is no one he has not cheated on. It is on ROL every time he gets caught. No gossip about it. He cheats. Cheats. Cheats. He just got caught again. Check out the list of his ex victims. They all say he cheated. I do think the Kate Major is by far the funniest cheating so far but cheating is probably not as funny to the poor clueless women.
Kmom, how do you know she is a “20-somethings looking for a loser”? Why is he a loser? Seems to me he is happy and out there doing stuff, and not on a blog calling you a name.
Where was her age posted? Speculating much? She could be in her 30′s, who knows and who cares. It’s his life.
Oye Vay!
Didn’t Hailey say he also cheated on her? I believe I read that right in here interview here on IW.
TC what’s the deal with Jon do you want us to sign Jon up for the man of the year contest?
Maybe Jon brings the “hate” on himself? Lots of stuff said about Kate is PURE GOSSIP.Maybe the Kate Haters feel better calling her names?
What I am trying to say TC is everything you come here accusing us of you could say to the Kate Haters as well.
But you know me…I am just sayin’ it with a SMILE. A BIG OLE SMILE.
Well, if you base all your facts on ROL “stories” for your information then it’s obvious why you comment the way you do. He said Ellen and him broke up LAST WEEK, correct? So how is a date or (non date) last night considered cheating?
How does Jon bring on the hate himself? Because of alleged dirty deeds he is doing every other night? Leave to the Uber fans and they would have him tweeting his hate for kate and trashing his kids every night.
TC…If you seriously think Kate is the ONLY one Jon cheated on…..YOU DON’T GET IT and you don’t read very much. I did not say Jon NEEDED to defend Kate against it. And I notice you had nothing to say about Jon’s non-existant defense of his own children against the hatred spewed at them as well. But I think Kate does a fabulous job of smacking down her haters in a way most don’t even know they’ve been smacked down. But the act of standing up for his children, taking the high road, SHOWING RESPECT , DOING THE RIGHT THING by his children would go a long way in changing my opinion of him. What a FABULOUS example of respect would it be for Jon’s children for him to publically speak out against the hate directed at Kate AND his children! I don’t have any feelings for my ex-husband but I have defended him and stood up for him when the situation called for it so don’t tell me that you have to have feelings in order to do the right thing by someone. You have to have maturity and a good sense of right vs wrong. Jon does not have that. Jon has a sense of what’s right for JON and what’s wrong for JON.
Kmom, clearly you believe what you want. Good for you. Jon isn’t responsible for Kate’s hate, plain and simple. His defense of her would look foolish at best. I DON’t BELIEVE that the kids are getting vile things said about them. Why would they? They are innocent in this whole drama that is Kate. Jon is best served taking care of his kids how HE see’s fit, not a bunch of women who feel they can tell him how to live his life and if he doesn’t he is a loser. Who cares if Kate smacks down her haters? Most real celebs don’t have to resort to “smacking” down their haters because they don’t let their lives be controlled by a bunch of gossip blogs and posters and they don’t use twitter to chat with their obsessive fans.

People would say “who is Krieder” if she did go back to her maiden.——– the haters love to call her Katie Kreider, blows that theory.
——————-
204- women all over the world keep their married name after divorce,for that very reason. Either you’re socially ignorant or blatantly ignorant. The time of the break up, the Gosselin name was not something to be proud of, google the word douche and you get Gosselin. Jon did more to disrespect the name but somehow Kate doesnt deserve to keep the family name?
———————
220-it’s hilarious that you question anything anyone reads and believes. You believe anything any hater spoon feeds you and completely ignore anything else shown as the proof, even after you ask to see it. Hilarious!
221-bahahhahahahhahaha of course Jon doesn’t being the hate on himself but you’re sure Kate does. That’s hilarious.
I mean no disrespect to the girl in the pictures but Jon’s MO is young, naive girls that he can easily manipulate and get to believe his lies. That’s why I speculate, and you are right, it’s purely speculation (based on past documented history)of this girl’s age.
Well, the haters aren’t hiring Krieder. So not sure how my theory was blown.
Calling me ignorant? And people wonder why I get so catty at times. I guess it’s OK for some to call people less than intelligent. Kate did as much to bring the word Douche to the name as Jon. Unless you have been blind to the way she has acted all these years. Still though, not sure what point you are trying to make. She kept the name because she knows it will take her farther then her maiden.
And your last point makes no sense either. ROL is not the source to go to when you want facts that are accurate and actually researched. Why do you think TMZ isn’t so quick to jump on BS stories? They have a lot more integrity and believability then your favorite ROL.
#225, what are you basing your facts on? Jon isn’t in the media or on TV running his mouth. He tweets something and it is twisted and contorted to sound like hate. The only hate he is generating is the hate you spew and make up. His life, his choices. NOT YOURS.
How does Kate bring on the hate herself? Because of alleged dirty deeds She is doing every other night? Leave to the Uber HATERS and they would have him tweeting his hate for kate and Kate would trashing the kids every night.
Do you get the point TC?
Again….NEVER did I say Jon was responsible for Kate’s hate. It would simply be the right thing to do, a concept obviously as foreign to Jon as telling the truth. I call BS on you having no knowledge of the terrible things said about the children. Your “mother ship” has lots and lots of examples of wishing bad things on the children, predicting horrible things for the children, etc. My whole point was when Jon does something WORTHY of respect, I will acknowledge it.
I agree kmom
Easily manipulate? Jeez do you ever stop? I think it goes both ways and you have no idea who this person is or her intelligence level. I bet if she wore a hat that said “I heart haters”, you would just LOVE that and automatically assume she was trying to replace Kate in the kids life and she would become the new poster child for hating on Kate and the kids, even if she never said a word.
patty thats not very original. Can you try something that actually isn’t just playing word games?
I love the term ‘spywitness’. Pam, I’d much rather take your path in re. to Jon. I hope you are correct! Perhaps this is a meeting w. one of Ellen’s friends – who just happens to be wearing the very T-shirt Ellen’s been peddling. Or maybe he is so into devoting more time w. the 8, he is interviewing for a new babysitter? Whatever the case is…everyone knows he owes no allegiance to another love interest.
Heh. Unfortunately, I am more of a cynic…but I’ll just hope Jon KNOWS what he is doing. (Sorrier to read he wasn’t able to kick his cigarette habit.)
I don’t know what “mother ship” you are referring to and wonder why your comments about other blogs get through but mine don’t. I can guess….
I read two blogs and NEITHER of them has ANYBODY wishing bad things on the kids. THAT IS BS and you know it. Why don’t you copy/paste just 1 (one) example of this so called hate against the kids. I know that the kids are considered innocent and untouchable at most blogs.
Well, if you base all your facts on ROL “stories” for your information then it’s obvious why you comment the way you do.
Then you must be reading the wrappers to Hubba Bubba bubble gum.
I have to wonder why haters harp on the dangers of Kate’s actions (tanning, speeding, etc….) don’t even mention the danger Jon does with smoking. The real risk is harming himself and others by smoking is somehow so insignificant? You’d think all these people that claim to care so much about the children would be just as vehement about the smoking
-
Cue he ‘Jon doesn’t smoke around his kid argument’ 5, 4, 3, 2, 1
My take on the ROL story is that someone at the club took pictures and sold the story as they saw it to ROL.
Good catch HB on the T-Shirt.
I love the term ‘spywitness’ too.
marnie, well you had to have something to say about it and good for you. Smoking is frowned upon by a lot of people these days. BUT, it doesn’t mean that jon is an evil person for doing it. You have no idea where he smokes and in front of who he smokes.
tcparra, because you are obsessed with another blog and I have no intention of you getting out your obsession here. And you know it.
.
These other women are not on moderation so their comments go through. The comments are coming in very fast today and guess what……sometimes I have other things to do. I don’t even know what comment you are referring to about “other blogs.”
Deborah…if ROL had said…this a proof Jon & Ellen haven’t broken up, but are friends…I would have never thought twice. The gal in the photos resembles Ellen…w. hair w. a blondish hue.
“I don’t know what “mother ship” you are referring to and wonder why your comments about other blogs get through but mine don’t. I can guess….”
.
One comment. Again, because you are obsessed with it and want to say something about it on every comment. And you know what I am talking about.
Pam, that’s not a very fair statement. I am not obsessed with that blog. I am disgusted with it, but not obsessed. Whatever, have a good day ladies and enjoy all the gossip and whatever BS you can derive from it to make Kate sound good or Jon sound bad. I’ve wasted enough time today on this subject.
Pam, I DO NOT say something on every comment. Geez, again another unfair comment. But it’s your blog and you say what you want.
Deborah, I agree. Those pictures look like they are coming from a cell phone and someone wanted to make some quick money.
There are three comments sitting in trash from this am right now because of that. Drop the whole “drama blog” thing and your comments will go through. LOL. It gets old.
I am not playing word games TC…trying to make a point. Do you understand that everything you say about the FANS could be turned right around and said to the Kate haters?
I am just trying to show you.
HB…I also thought the girl in the pics looks a lot like Ellen.
This Gosselin stuff gets so old. Kate seems to be living a good life. Months after the show is canceled she seems to have kept them in their home, kids seem to be going to the same school. She is still able to shop for food etc. Jon seems to be happy. He seems to be seeing his kids on a regular basis. He seems to be able to keep food on his table. Hate tweeters keep tweeting Kate and trying to intimidate anyone who dares tweet something kind to Kate. Kate haters seem to keep looking for the speck of saw dust in someone elses eye while ignoring the plank in their own. Fans keep trying to point out the hypocritical and the world keep turning.

I agree Pam and Deb… someone earned a quick buck for that pic…
If I didn’t know better, I think TC is paid by Jon to defend him. LOL. Yes, TC, their has been statements made about the children from people that were terrible. I would never even repeat them, not alone copy/paste them here.

——-
Please show where I claimed Jon was evil because he smokes? That defensiveness is immature and pure drama. You’rer right, I don’t know where Jon smokes or who he smokes in front of, but neither do you. You err on the side of Jon would do no harm, but there are published photos of him smoking near his children. Don’t ask for none to produce them, go google it if you NEED proof.
None is anyone! Damn autocorrect hates me
I’m going to have to look at the ROL picture again, I didn’t see the resemblance.
#250, Rock On Pie. ITA!!!
Jon hasn’t done anything for awhile for me to snark on.
If I do bring up something he’s done its only in response to the Kate hate.
It does get old and stupid.
IF there are comments out there trashing the kids, then I am willing to bet it is a very small group of idiots. Most mature people, haters or fans, know that the kids are innocent in all of this nonsense and don’t make a habit of saying vile things. That BS is probably spewed by the same people who think it’s funny to say racial things or ethnic jokes and think they are funny. So, I wouldn’t put any vile comments out there in the Hater or the Fan column. That would require it’s own special listing under “IDIOT”
I agree. Jon and Kate both seem to be in a good place. Kids are off TV so some should be happy.
I agree TC that it is a small group of idiots trashing the Gosselin kids, what bothers me is that Jon follows a couple of the, on twitter and allows a few other ones to follow him on twitter too. That is inexcusable.
how do you know who jon follows? Are you on his list of accepted followers? Please, with 60K or whatever his number is now, why should he be held liable for not deleting these idiots? I bet if he really was aware of these nasty comments, he would dump them in a hot minute.
I just checked Jon’s twitter and a couple gals are saying Jon stopped following them.
Maybe he’s starting to clean it up.
If I was one of the G kids I would feel like anyone trashing either one of my parents were trashing me.
but I’m just sayin’
That’s good news, Deborah. Perhaps a step in the right direction?
That is just a very weak attempt to keep him responsible for the idiots who say these vile things. Jon is their dad and has shown he loves them, regardless of the standard you think he should follow or doesn’t follow.

——-
It’s quite easy to tell who follows who without actually following them.
-
Jon allowed 60k to follow his personal twitter, who else should be held accountable for that other than Jon? Playing the ignorance is bliss card is quite silly. Jon is well aware of who he follows and who follows him. Following haters sends a pretty clear message
How has he show he loves them? And do you apply that’s a,e logic to Kate?
OK, sure. He is watching each and every person who tweets and says vile things. What a crock! Just a lame way to make him the bad guy. Since most people don’t have that number of followers, you have no idea how hard or easy it is to keep tabs on the BS some people say. Marnie, try and understand that Jon is NOT the bad guy because he follows or someone follows him and has said something less than wonderful. Your logic really is just hate disguised as concern. Again, if Jon really was aware of the nasty things being said, he would probably dump them and move on. But, you stick to your theories and maybe a few people will believe you and join the “Jon is a bad guy” train that you seem to ride nonstop.
I have never said that Kate doesn’t love her kids. Sometimes, her actions are a little confusing (not bringing up old stuff as this is a new day). Jon is their dad, are you trying to say that Jon doesn’t love them because of some wild logic you want to adhere to?
So Jon had a hookup. LOL, get used to this story. Although, I doubt it will keep making the entertainment news. I agree Pam & Deborah, it looks like someone took the pic w/a cell phone for a quick buck.
He could just be hanging out, could be a cousin..lol. It really doesn’t matter. He’s free and Ellen’s free. I don’t expect Jon to be alone for awhile after a breakup. He’s not the type.
So by your logic, Jon’s not responsible for anything in his life? He’s like a pinball in the arcade game of life? LOL Now that’s some funny stuff there! Poor Jon.
Deborah…I just took a peek at Jon’s Twitter…whatever is happening, I don’t think it’s him, but Twitter. Too, I made the bad error of checking out a ‘hockeymom’ on his Twitter page. IF those who believe nothing NASTY…I mean just plain VILE, isn’t rejoyced in re. to Kate & her ‘fans’ – wish I hadn’t been curious.
Thank you HB, and you know if YOU can see it….JON CAN SEE IT.
TC- please show me where I said Jon didn’t love his kids? Instead of reading into posts, just read them
-
Again, I didn’t say he was responsible for everything people tweeted, but he is responsible for the people he CHOOSES to follow, and the people he CHOOSES to allow follow his protected twitter account. Don’t insult people by claiming the tweets are just less than nice and that’s not Jon’s fault. Since you admit you don’t do twitter, all you’re essentially do is calling those of us who do tweet and see the nasty stuff, liars. I’m not asking you to believe anything I’ve said. All I’m asking is to unit being so ignorant about what people see on twitter
I will never get used to this touch screen!!!!
Marnie, your comment # 266 questions if he loves them, I think.
Marnie, I asking you to copy/paste these tweets that you say are so bad..Just copy one tweet (censor the bad words if you are that disgusted) I’m not calling you a liar, just don’t believe that Jon is fully aware of these tweets or he just doesn’t waste his time blocking/unblocking followers because you or other fans think he should in order to be accepted by his haters.
Basically this topic is going round and round. In the end, I’m sure Jon loves his kids more than you are giving him credit and who the hell cares about some stupid social network toy? I still say Jon is not basing his life on how the fans feel about him and I don’t think anyone’s love should be gauged on who is blocked and who isn’t.
kmom, that is simply drama logic. I said Jon doesn’t need to arrange his life to suit your (or any fan’s) notion of what is right and wrong. There are plenty of blogs that think they can indicate what he should do, from his relationship and when he should date again to his kids and if he REALLY loves them simply because of some stupid social network.
I tried looking for this Hockeymom and couldn’t find her. I wanted to see these vile comments for myself.
Be realistic, if Jon really was aware or concerned about people saying nasty stuff about his kids, do you think he would allow it? I think not. When you strip away all the nonsense, those are his kids and again, I am betting that he would NOT like it.
PS: I’m done going round and round with you about this stupid topic. If you want to base your opinion of someone on how they block or unblock or allow or ignore comments made on twitter, than go for it. This is really a dead horse that you want to beat into submission and I say, have at it.
So it would be a waste of Jon’s time to block a follower that says vile, disgusting things about his kids? WOW!
Kmom, again if he knew it and was fully aware of it the by all means of course not! Maybe he just doesn’t waste his time worry about BS that fans like you are so concerned about. Whats next, will you report him to Child Welfare of some government body because he isn’t responding or blocking stupid immature people who tweet.
I still say though it has to be a very small group of idiots that are doing this and the fans are going bat shit crazy over this. Any mature, sane person wouldn’t be saying bad, vile things about 8 & 11 year old kids.
Why do haters absolve Jon of all responsibility? His twitter is protected, he therefore has the power to determine who follows him, he has erased some when they’ve been brought to his attention, others he keeps. He is also 100 percent responsible for he chooses o follow. He’d have to be blind to not see the incessant tweets on his timeline of e haters he follows. That’s how twitter works TC, if you don’t understand it, fine, but being willfully ignorant about it and absolving Jon of any responsibility is inexcusable and stupid.
-
I will not cut and paste tweets here from haters, hey deserve zero attention on other forums. I think you are capable of reading twitter yourself, you continue to choose to be ignorant about it, the excuse that you don’t see it is weak. People do and can see it, you choose not to.
hi pie!!!
Hateful nasty STRANGERS saying vile, disgusting things about anyone’s children would not be considered BS by anyone with a brain. Why is NOTHING Jon’s fault. He has complete control over his twitter account and if anyone following him can see what’s on his twitter page, HE CAN SEE IT!!!!! OMG! It would be a cold cold day in hell before I let someone talk about my children like that. For heaven’s sake!
“Any mature, sane person wouldn’t be saying bad, vile things about 8 & 11 year old kids.
”
——
Any mature, sane father would block those idiots regardless of how many were doing it. It makes Jon a bad father, to allow himself to be associated with that. Obviously, he just doesn’t care.
I will agree that there’s obviously a lot of things in life Jon isnt fully aware of such as telling the truth, don’t steal from your children and put others ahead of yourself. But his twitter and what goes on there is not one of them.
TC,
One question?? Is Ellen feeding the haters. I can tell you one twitter who says she knows for sure about things about Jon and the kids. She tweets Ellen all the time.
Do I understand this correctly? Jon is responsible for anything that the people who follow him say?
Does that also apply to Kate? Shouldn’t she be telling her followers not to tweet employers of non-fans or to stop harassing Jon on twitter? Haven’t seen her do that.
If you have a twitter account, are you responsible for anything one of your followers says? If you don’t agree with something they do say, do you call them out on it?
The rules you apply to Jon, should also apply to Kate and to yourselves.
No you don’t understand this correctly. Jon is not responsible for what his followers say. Jon IS RESPONSIBLE for not blocking/un-following the idiots that say hateful disgusting things about his children. Nobody would talk about my children like these sub-humans do the Gosselin children while I sat back and did nothing to stop it or speak out against it.

Marnie, your comment # 266 questions if he loves them, I think.
——–ummmm no it doesn’t. You claimed in 264 that he has shown he loves them . I asked you how he has shown he loves them and do you apply that same logic to Kate. Nowhere did I claim or question IF he loves them. It doesn’t surprise me though that you, again, read into the comment, and just didn’t read it.

Good lord! Is it reading Non Comprehension Day?
-
Jon is responsible for who he follows and lets follow him. He chooses to allow haters to do both and ignores their incessant lunacy towards his kids.
-
Jon is harassed on twitter by Kate fans? Is this another ‘I don’t do twitter’ posters?
-
I see this nonsense on twitter and fb and blogs that fans or non fans contact people’s employers, etc…… I call BS. If there is evidence that someone has done his, there are steps that can be taken to stop it. I do find it amusing though that there is evidence of this type of behavior towards Kate Gosselin by haters, and often see haters claiming this happens to them. Hmmmmmmmmm
Hi IW ladies,
Just thought I should put it out there ~ That I am not ashamed to comment where ever I choose to comment. I am PROUD !
Since some seem to be stalking by comments here I am : )
Call me ignorant one more time. Quit being so obtuse. Like I said and keep saying, that group of idiots is small and I question just how vile these tweeters are really being.
Anyone else back up what is being said about the kids being called names? I have looked for this hockey mom and there are a lot, I’m not looking at them all.
You just don’t get it, it’s his GD perogative to keep who he wants and doesn’t want. I still say he is not just allowing these people to remain because he likes what they say. Just move on and worry about sometthing that matters.
Marnie,
CJWhodunit tweeted a non-fans employer. BHappyLoveLaugh tweeted to CJ and included the employer’s name in her tweet. MsGoody2shoes tweets disparaging things to Jon. Why doesn’t Kate stop that?
Don’t hold Jon to a higher standard than you do Kate. I don’t think either of them should be accountable for what their followers do, but yet you expect Jon to say something to his followers, but don’t hold Kate to that same standard.
How can you question any group of tweeters that you’ve already admitted to not being able to see? That IS ignorant.
-
I think you don’t get it. No one said it isn’t his prerogative to keep followers, etc….. He likes what they say? He likes that they claim all sorts of things about his children?
-
You just ranted about Jon’s right to his own prerogative, then go on to tell people to move on and worry about something more important? So much for people’s prerogatives! No wonder people accuse you of Jon Gosselin hero worship. Geesh!
-
Here’s a hint to finding people who bash the Gosselin kids. Search out Kate on twitter, talk about obtuse!
Addie- don’t twist the issues. You’re actually comparing non fans/fans griping at each other, which has nothing to do with Kate Gosselin to Jon Gosselin following and allowing followers who say nasty things about HIS kids? Apples and oranges sweetheart. Jon gosselins kids are his business, he chooses to ignore what his followers say. I have to laugh at anyone who thinks Jon shouldn’t stick up for his own kids, based on those same tweeters timelines, they’d lose their minds if someone said anything about their kids.
Again, I don’t believe for 1 minute that Jon is looking at a tweet and saying “hey that is about my kids, I like what they said, even if it is vile”. Get real, you are twisting things to meet your own wild imagination.
Pam, have you seen these so called vile tweets? Lily? Anyone?
I would like a couple names so I can go see these tweets, then I will believe it. Otherwise, stop making BS up.
Marnie,
Can you provide evidence where any of the “haters” have said anything disparaging about the children? I have never seen that and perhaps I missed it. Am curious to know?
TC-totally agree. Where are these tweets saying bad things about the kids? I’d like to see them too.
I think I figured it out. Now that Ellen is out of the picture, the fans have nothing to get all giddy about and accuse her of doing. So what do they do and what is their latest cause? Slam Jon for not blocking any follower who is allegedly saying things about HIS kids. That sure seems to be the MO today. I really think it is a few nutty fans who are simply making stuff up so they can all band together and sing around the campfire how disgusting it is that he isn’t blocking these tweeters.
I think I am right about this:
Runner’s World is one of the Rodale publications, based out of Emmaus, PA. Rodale also publishes Prevention, Bicycling, Organic Gardening, and Men’s Health Magazines. The company is dedicated to organic and healthy living. As a local celeb who promotes healthy living (except for the tanning!) Kate Gosselin is a natural person to be featured in Runner’s World.
Runner’s World also featured Jenny Masche, before she was a famous IW blogger! They did a short write-up after she ran her first marathon after having her sextuplets.
All of this emotion over a bunch of made up crap. Jon is his own person and anybody who is concerned that he isn’t blocking these haters is making crap up and is jealous because they want to be next to the kids and can’t. Thats all this can be, I mean seriously does ANYONE think that Jon would willingly allow people to be mean and vile to his kids? I don’t think so.
I agree Ann, and it was a nice article. I remember now that they featured Jenny also.
I have not seen the actual publication.
I see the article is now up and live on the internet.
Ann…Pam…HIP-HIP-HOORAY! Is this about Runner’s World? My bad. It’s rough keeping the sanity!
Do you have a link Pam #303
Wow, that article is really long. I don’t think at my age that I can run. I have been walking and usually do five miles five days a week and only about 2 miles on weekends. I had to take this past month or so off because I was so sick. Just now feeling like maybe I can start again.
http://www.runnersworld.com/article/0,7120,s6-243-544–14205-F,00.html
I want to mention that I like this blog and would of loved to join in the getting to know you post.
I think it is a fabulous idea and a great read ~You have a lot of very interesting ladies that post here at IW
It is a shame that certain obsessed haters cause me to not feel comfortable joining in and posting anything there. : (
Pam, I walked three miles today, and was thinking of you. (It was so nice.) I hope you are back to getting into your routine soon.
I can’t run either. Too hard on my joints. But walking a dog? I can do that.
.
CocoPuff, I hope we will see you join in the getting to know you thread. It is a interesting reading!
.
I think we still subscribe to Runner’s World. (I think.) My husband was a runner before being forced to give it up on dr.’s orders. I am very partial to RW magazine. The Rodale family has made a wonderful impact where I live; and my niece was featured in RW at one time!
.
I’m thrilled for Kate Gosselin (and Jenny Masche) that they can mother so many little ones, but still find time for exercise. So admirable!

——– ok TC, stay in that little bubble of yours, keep ignorant and don’t go and look for yourself. It’s quite easy to d
Find, just as easy to see who he allows to follow and who he follows. But, you go on believing, ignorance is bliss.
——
Addie, again, read above. I find it really hard to believe that haters can’t find things on twitter and are so quick to show their ignorance. Always demanding proof when it’s right under your fingers. http://Www.twitter.com. I’m sure there’s even a twitter for dummies book that might help you people out.
Ann- I agree with that
At part especially. If the moms of multiples can inspire more people to exercise, that is a good thing, especially with the growing obesity rates.
-
The tinker bell marathon was happening the weekend we left disney, got my wheels turning, could be a good reason to return! Some of the costumes were so cute!!!
tc if i may interject…no one is saying that jon should troll all his tweets and that he should be kate’s cheerleader. i for one do recognize that that is probably NOT reality.
it is true IF kate sees the haters tweets to her followers she doesn’t tell them to not speak badly of jon.
but jon knows that the haters say horrible things about how kate treats the kids. he knows that they think she beats them, starves them, exploits them, etc. if all that is true don’t you think jon’s leaving them with a mom that does that and doesn’t take her to court to prove her an unfit mom makes him just as culpable as she is if that were true? it makes me know that jon knows that kate isn’t an unfit mother.
but here is the thing:
kate didn’t have a boyfriend that communicated with the jon haters
kate have men over to the house with the kids there when they were still married
kate didn’t have guns around the kids and fire them off when the kids were there
kate didn’t put it out on twitter that he loved the lyrics to that some about kate
and before you bring up steve anything about kate and steve is only speculation no facts or proof.
so all that is being said is that jon should speak up and say hey those things you are saying about her as a mom aren’t true. in my opinion he should have done so years ago.
Hi TC,
Had a chance to enter either of the contests yet? With all this time your
dedicating to IW..it would be great to hear that you’re a winner from one of them.
Waves & hugs to Ann, Pie & CoCo Puff
What do you think is on Kates playlist when she runs?
Momsby-she listed some of the songs she runs to, can’t remember if it was on twitter or her website though
This is such a shame. When I first stumbled upon IW a bit ago, I thought this was the anti-twitter, that I would be able to discuss a celebrity’s comings and goings with other fans, and maybe experience some good natured debate and difference of opinion, because I truly support other women and the choices they make. Instead, like Kate’s twitter, I’m constantly being bashed over the head with the same person posting over and over and over again, about things that have absolutely NOTHING to do with the article being commented on…I’m done. I’m tired of trying to parse my words against someone that argues like…a lawyer. I’m happy to lurk, as I continue to do on Kate’s twitter, but I just don’t have the time it requires to comment here any longer…enjoy the merry-go round ladies.
Oh and P.S. I freeze milk ALL the TIME, as in on a monthly basis, and it isn’t nasty you just have to shake it. Why would cows milk be any different then breast milk, which they sell specific freezer bags for? That right there highlights the level of idiocy this is taken to.
