It's Not Looking Good for Jon and Kate

Posted by Colleen Kane

 

Today in rumor mongering, an update on the possible infidelity of Jon Gosselin, the TLC reality TV dad of eight who may have decided eight was enough. As mentioned on Scanner last week, he's been seen about town with a young woman who is not his wife. Now Us Weekly has a cover story with the headline "Jon & Kate: Affair With a Teacher." 

The alleged other woman is Deanna Hummel, a 25-year-old teacher who lives with her brother. And this brother, Jason, apparently sold her out to Us in the guise of helping her out of this situation. 

"He [Jon] is a bad liar. This isn’t healthy for her. But she is refusing to help herself, so here I am trying to help her myself. I hope this clears the air.”

He goes on to say,  “A lot of the time, it was pretty, um, gross listening to her, you know, um — how do I say this? The walls are thin. Let’s just say that. I mean, no one wants to hear his sister having sex, let alone with a married dude who’s, like, almost twice her age and who has eight kids and a maybe-crazy wife. Ick. Nast.”

For one thing, bro, he's seven years older, not exactly twice her age. But for another, isn't that a sign of the times? He's helping her by airing her dirty laundry to a tabloid magazine.

Nast.

Hmm. I hate this show, and I die a little when people not only tell me they watch it but "OMG I love him/her/them/that kid with the glasses!!!!!" I've watched this show just to see why everyone is off their fricken rockers over it, and I hate it even more. She's really awful, he allows himself to be abused in front of millions, and the kids...are kids. Fine, they're cute.

But really. This was never an "if", but a "when". If either of them cared to make improvements they'd stop filming the show and do it.

I'm with Amanda. All I know of the show is what my beloved Joel McHale shows me on the Soup, and even that much makes me want to climb out of my skin. And yet and yet, TLC (The LEARNING Channel? really?) *continues* to premiere new "HOORAY FOR GROSS OVER-BREEDING!" shows. Nast indeed.
