Jon and Kate Divorce Papers

Well its official, Jon and Kate are getting a divorce. This has been speculation for the past few weeks as rumors of troubles in the marriage have surfaced. Of course this is not unexpected. I’m sure there has been a lot of stress induced by the Jon and Kate Plus 8 program. Having cameras in your house all the time, must be stressful. Personally I would never allow someone to invade my privacy like this no matter how much money they where willing to pay. So what does this mean for the reality series Jon and Kate plus 8. I’m assuming it will be canceled, even though its been announced that it will continue just that Jon and Kate will be taped separately with the kids. This will be disappointing to many as a lot of people like to watch this program for some reason. Personally I have never figured it out.

According to CNN, Jon and Kate filed their divorce papers in Pennsylvania on Monday, ending their 10-year marriage. The announcement Jon and Kate made on Monday confirms rampant tabloid speculation that the couple’s marriage was in trouble.

“I’m not very fond of the idea, personally, but I know it’s necessary because my goal is peace for the kids,” said Kate Gosselin during Monday’s episode of “Jon and Kate Plus 8”.

“Kate and I have decided to separate,” Jon said. “It’s just not good for us to be arguing in front of our kids.”

Jon and Kate’s eight children–consisting of twin girls and sextuplet–will continue living at their home in Wernersville, Pennsylvania. 

According to the Yahoo! TV Blog, on Kate’s days with the children, Jon would live elsewhere. However, on Jon’s assigned days, he would live in the house, with and Kate forcing to find other accommodations.

Despite their separation, Jon and Kate have both said that the television show will continue. However, in future episodes, their time with the children would be taped separately.

“Jon and Kate Plus 8” chronicles the lives of Jon, Kate and their family of eight children. It is currently on its fifth season.

Jon and Kate’s marriage has been the center of public scrutiny ever since Jon was allegedly caught by paparazzi photographers drunk and cheating on Kate with another woman. Additionally, it has also been rumored by tabloids that Kate was romantically involved with the family’s bodyguard. Kate denied this rumor was true.
