Not from a stupid tabloid like US weakly. I don't believe any of the stories they print where they supposedly 'investigated."

they caught him, red handed. these aren't rumors anymore because he was caught. the interview he gave that talked about him with other women said "i am still with my wife". that's it. not "i love my wife...there is no truth to the rumors...kate is the only one for me". and what grown up woman wants to drive a married mans car to the other side of the parking lot? please "oh, can i rock your mini van?!"

werent there pics on the internet of him playing beer pong with a bunch of college kids? cheating is never ok, but he should find a better way to let of steam, he's prob stressed to the max with all those kiddos

Umm .. okay .. so he left a club with a woman driving his car. Where is the scandal? Did US Weekly see them kissing? Did they stay in the same room at a hotel? Sorry, this is a non-issue just to sell magazines. I feel bad for Kate to have this out there. Jon really shouldn't be going out alone (w/o male friends) so much. It's not respectful of his wife and family at home to even create opportunity for these rumors.

I think they'll wind up divorced, but not necessarily because of any extramarital relationship he's having. I think the way she treats him on television is horrible; there is no way I would want to be in a relationship like theirs.

I really don't want to believe these rumors but if you watch the show, the animosity between them is overwhelming. Sometimes it seems like no longer even like each other. But it would be dumb of him to cheat so publicly, but I definitely think it's a possibility.

Unfortunately when men are beaten down like that they are easy targets for women who give them attention. The same works the other way around. It wouldn't shock me but still bums me out with all those kids if it is true.

Well, my hubby won't be caught at 2 am with a "mystery woman" in front of a club while his wife and children are sleeping at home..

I've seen a few eppies of the show and I'm not impressed. Kate treats Jon like he's a dog. There's no respect between them, also she forced the 6 children on him. In some of the interviews on the show, he admitted he was fine with just 2 kids, it was easy and worked great but then she got pregnant with 6 and he gave in and didn't make her abort them.

Despite what both may say about being happy with 8 children. I don't think they really are. Children are time consuming and most people struggle with 1 or 2 kids, or even 3. Having 8 kids and raising them would make anyone annoyed. The way they act on the show its like they're just trying to get through the day. I doubt they're enjoying raising their children.

If I were a man, I'd get a vasectomy, because that is the only way that a woman can't force children on you without your consent. I never want kids, I want my life to belong to me. Also children get in the way of marriage. I mean I'm glad that my mom had me but I sure don't want kids. I want to enjoy life for myself and not have to self-sacrifice.

If I were married to a woman like that, I would probably be cheating too. I've only seen one or two episodes, but it seems like she is always condescending toward him and treats him (pardon my french) like sh*t.

I've also always questioned her as a mother. She has 8 children, and has built her career around teaching mothers how to care for their own, but who is taking care of these kids when she is gone for weeks at a time on book tours, etc? Frankly, I think HE is the only real parent in that family.

jdmxrain, if I recall, they didn't get pregnant with six accidentally. They had help from a fertility doctor. So it's not like this was totally out of left field (except maybe the amount of embryos that made it). Plus, their religious and/or moral beliefs affected their decision to keep all six babies. It was not a matter of being unable to "force" his wife to have six abortions.

Ugh, totally agree Kate is really demeaning and hard on Jon. Even when they do their private commentaries she is harping on him. Nothing he does is right. Sometimes he'll ask a simple question and instead of answering she gets snotty and condescending/treats him like he's five.

It's got to be hard for both of them raising eight children and have a camera crew allover them to boot. I'd probably be a little snappy too, but she seems to go overboard. Mos def agree he needs to find better outlets than hanging with college kids and going to nightclubs. The bold fact is, you make a choice to give certain things up when you have a family and clubbing at 2a is one of them. (Not saying never, just very, very infrequently and then with f/m friends/relatives or your wife. Not by yourself.)

Maybe they thought the coverage would always be lightweight TLC style and not tabloid-style. Having this kind of press must be really distressing. Hopefully none of the kids in their twins' classes are asking about the rumours (you know kids these days, they seem to know too much, lol).

jdmxrain, yeah, with you on the whole no kids things. It's best left to those who really want kids. I'm more than happy to be the spoiling aunt!

jdmxrain - he didn't make her abort them??? Umm ... what? These children were created by two totally loving and committed parents. Kate CANNOT get pregnant on her own so they had to use invitro. And, in the interviews JON has given, he states that he did not want to selectively abort any of the babies. No one forced these children on that "poor man".

If Jon isn't happy, he needs to get a divorce. Leave his wife. Cheating or even creating the appearance of cheating is completely disrespectful. As for Kate being demeaning towards Jon, the way she speaks to him is pretty horrible. But many times it is coming right back at her just as awful. They should both learn to communicate with each other in more respectful tones however ... 8 kids under the age of 5?? Can any of you really imagine what that must have been like for them?? (Their twins were 4 when the babies were born.) I cannot imagine what it must be like to live in that household ... I only have two kids and sometimes I find myself snapping at my husband. My point? Until you are in their shoes, you can't really judge how you would behave.

Foudini yea I get your point...and gopg8r, I realize what you are saying but I still disagree. I can have my own opinion in fact that is what this forum is for, I don't have to be in someone else's shoes for me to have an opinion. Yea maybe Jon won't say that he regrets having 8 kids, but the way he acts gives me reason to think otherwise.

On tv, he always looks miserable and what about that comment about being 50 something and marrying a 19 year old? Anyway, I'm just glad its not my life.

I think if there's anything to be learned from the show its that if you have a family at all, that you better have a good relationship as a couple first. Because from how both jon and kate act, they don't seem to have that basic foundation of respect the way a husband and wife need to have.

I love this show but Kate treats him like crap and it's really uncomfortable to watch. She's always bossing him around and talking down to him. There should be equality in a relationship and there definitely isn't in theirs. I don't want to speculate on the cheating though. I guess anything's possible.

I have yet to hear anything about this from a reliable source. Call me naive, but I'm choosing not to believe it until I do.

Based on the way he is treated by her I wouldn't put it passed him, do I agree with it? No.

I feel bad for him. She seriously wears the designer pants in the house. Her haircut is horrendous and she isnt very nice to him. Hopefully things work out.

You know, I might be the only one but I feel sorry for Kate. I don't have any kids, partially because I grew up in a house were I had to take care of my younger siblings and I realized how hard and life changing it was going to be.

I've seen a lot of this show and you see from the beginning that they didn't want six kids the second time. The procedure they used commonly resulted in multiples but that many kids was unusual. Neither could bring themselves to reduce the number but, when the show started, they truly seemed worried about how they were going to take care of all those kids when they got older and more expensive.

I don't really watch the show anymore but, why does Kate get all the crap? Women, by and large, are expected to do the majority of the parenting, all while looking hot and speaking sweetly to their husbands. I'm sorry but I do think it's hard to judge someone in that position if you have no idea what it's like. I couldn't tell you what a reasonable doctor would do in a situation cause I'm not a doctor. I also couldn't tell you how I'd react if I were 32 and had 8 kids and the guy I agreed to have them with was clearly checking out and didn't want to be there. Yeah, she's bossy but he's passive aggressive and doesn't assert himself. If they get divorced, I hope she fights for Jon to have full custody of all eight of them.

I have watched this show since the beginning and I don't think either of them respect each other. My take on this whole thing is that it's a publicity stunt.

if he actually is cheating on her, he's a grade A jerk. he has many (8!) little kids at home, and how are they going to feel seeing this splashed all over the place? honestly, i don't care what people say about jon or kate and their respect level for each other. this is about the kids. the KIDS were not a publicity stunt. the parents might be taking it too far NOW but there are still innocent children to think about.

just because he left the club with another woman doesn't mean that he's cheating on her? She could be driving his car because he's had too much to drink.

I've learned that you can never tell how a relationship really is unless you are in it. They seem to have a strained relationship though. Just looks like their intimacy went out the door years ago.

I think it is interesting how loosely people throw around the word divorce. This is a man who married a woman, and had eight children with her. These parents have a duty to these children. If he is unhappy they need to seek counseling and have him learn healthy ways to cope with his tension. You don't just jump to a divorce because you are unhappy. I'm sorry but there is a difference when there are 2 kids and eight kids. I believe they both took that responsibility on themselves when they agreed to have all six. Sorry about the soapbox, but people think unhappy=divorce, it is just the easy way out. People who have been married for 40 years didn't have it easy, but they made a commitment to each other, and learn to deal with their issues. Accept responsibility.

If this is true, then kate could be in Dancing with the Stars next season.

In regards to the divorce talk, if he is unhappy and hasn't cheated...then I am with Ashybaylor, relationships are a LOT of work, not the freaking fair tale Hollywood tries to sell you. You need to try every possible thing before thinking about a divorce and if that's the first thing on your mind when you are unhappy in your marriage you shouldn't have gotten married in the first place because obviously the meaning of marriage is lost on you...(with the exceptions of abuse and etc.). John and Kate I am not sure if they went' before but to go to counsellin now, seems too little too late.

On the show she does seem to boss him around quite a bit and I feel bad for him, but I also feel like "Dude you knew she was like this when you married her!" and afterall a marriage is a partnership and relationships esp when being parents, if she wasn't like that when they got married and started being bossy and b*tchy as she got more stressed he should have had the balls to address it with her and call her on her behaviour and the two of them should have find ways to deal with the stress without harping on each other!

Bottom line, I believe this rumour, and I feel sorry for the kids.

I absolutely do not believe anything that is in US Weekly. It's fun to read but the majority of the articles are not true so I'll believe it when it's in People. I've watched every single episode of the show and I think they are just in a rough patch. Every couple has ups and downs and their downs just happen to be televised to the world. I also believe you shouldn't just up and divorce someone because you are unhappy. That's why the divorce rate in this country is so damn high!! Time to reevaluate the situation and focus on the things that make them happy.
I have also noticed that during their interviews where they sit on the chair that throughout the seasons they have been sitting farther and farther apart. You can see the stress of the family, dogs, show, etc. are getting to them. I really feel for them because I really do enjoy them... attitudes and all. I hope the best for their family!

THEY HAVE ABSOLUTELY NO CHEMISTRY ON THE SHOW. He acts like he checked out of their relationship years ago... When was the last time they acted like they were in love? I watch the show a lot and I can't remember the last time I saw them flirt with eachother, or kiss, or hug, or even hold hands... Reminds me of my last relationship. Right before we broke up.

if i were him, i would have dumped her @ss a long time ago.

Do not be fooled. Jon and Kate plus 8 is a MONEY MACHINE for both Kate and JON and TLC. They very well may NOT be together anymore, but for the sake of the big bucks they are making and contracts, they made need to continue the illusion so we the public can continue to watch their show and buy Kate's dumb books.

BY THE WAY - to the person who said the kids and wife were home asleep..thinka gain. Kate wasn't home either as SHE was in Washington D.C promoting her book - so she very well could have been out on the town too.

The sad fact is - THIS KIDS were home asleep with a NANNY.

I do not want to say if I believe this or not, simply because it makes me very angry that US weekly would even post something like this. Think about those kids...they have friends at school that will see this magazine!! I cant imagine what it would be like to have friends ask if my daddy cheated on my mommy, and have the whole nation know about it. This is not just between Jon and Kate, there are 8 children involved as well!!!

Anyone noticed how orange Kate looks lately! Looks like she addicted to tanning either real or fake! Even if Jon and Kate were to get a divorce the alimony would be ridiculous. Many marriages experience trouble spots, they just don't have to do it in the public eye. Hopefully they will be able to work through it if there are indeed problems. They made a re-commitment to their marriage not that long ago and even if they don't get through their issues I don't see a divorce happening, just a miserable time until the children are out of the house.

Let's hope the tabloids are making it up!

These babies weren't conceived with IV. Just FYI,

If I had to wake up everyday to Kate I would be out at 2 am also with someone else.

if it was a female friend than kate would've known about the night in question. and all is fine. if not, oppies! plus who's to say that she doesn't have a pool boy on the side anyways. women are smarter about cheating, we don't get caught nearly half as much as men do.

FYI-the babies were not concieved using IVF however she did take fertility drugs and hyper-stimulated meaning made lots more eggs than intended. She was advised not to have intercourse that month because she had too many eggs and was told that if she conceived, there was a great chance she would conceive multiples. She decided to go against her doctors orders and had intercourse anyway. She conceived 7 babies but one died before it was born.
Jon had had sex with her knowing full well what COULD happen.

No I don't believe the rumors but I don't really care either that is their buisness, no one elses. But I would like to say that I can see where Kate gets grumpy I would too. She is 2 years older than Jon and feels like Jon is disregaurding her with things sometimes when she is most stressed out. She flirts with him everytime she smacks him the look on her face says it all even though the look on his face says it's embarrasing. Besides Kate may not be the constant b*tch everyone seems to see, this IS a TV show, and who wants to watch a "boring" day in the life of Jon and Kate? they give us one hour of veiwing out of an entire day. Don't you think we all have a more stressful hour of parenting in a day? I know I do. If my stressful hour was taped and publicly displayed I'm sure the world would think I'm headed toward a divorcce too but my marriage (according to dr.phil's relation ship tests) is doing a lot better then the average marriage. I'm just saying don't judge a book by it's cover, cause thats basically all we see. and when it comes to Jon people make mistakes were human, the digree of his mistake is up to him and between him and his family only. They do love each other but they do have a higher stressed life than most, I personally couldn't stand the camera's but would probably also do it for the income so kids would be thouroughly provided for. sorry bout the spelling.

Time for this train wreck of a show to come to an end; for the parents to stop exploiting their minor children for their own profit and repair their marriage and family. There are no laws in place in PA to protect the kids's earnings, the hours they work, under what conditions, no educational guarantees, no protections on the set for the kids(which means their house since the house is the set and the set is the house since the show is their life and their life is the show). Animals on the set have more protections than the Gosselin children do.

Jon said in the season 4 finale, in so many words, he wanted the show to end, that he wasn't happy w/Kate on the road and him home with the nanny, but she wouldn't listen. And the children continue to pay the price. When will someone take notice and take action to protect the children? When will the family and ex-friends finally speak out against the wrongs being done to the kids and that they deserve better?

When will the PA legislature enact laws for all minors in entertainment in their state and protect them? That fancy sports car Jon was photo'd in? Paid for by his kids. The fancy mansion? Paid for by the kids. The big diamond ring Kate's wearing? Paid for by the kids. The list goes on and on.

The show needs to stop NOW. And J&K (if they actually care about their family) need to stop the cameras, enter therapy to mend their marriage, family relationships, and children's issues and enter seclusion and live a life like others in their community do. They've done enough damage to themselves and their family with their show and it's constant publicity and side efforts. The kids will be paying the price for the parents poor decisions for the rest of their lives.

How many more wake up calls do J&K need? Since Feb, they've been in the tabloids and magazines for 2 months and none of the publicity has been positive. What are they waiting for? Talking about their lives 4-5 years ago, like they did in their appearance at a PA engagement today won't hide the glaring problems. They can't hide the fact their children are no longer toddlers, aren't happy with taping the show, and want to live a 'normal life' like their friends. Does anyone believe they're living a Christian life - like they talk about every chance they get?

End the show! Stop the cameras before someone is physically hurt. The psychological damage has already begun. But, Jon drinking and maybe also driving while drunk is a recipe for disaster and a cry for help. It's sad they have no friends to associate with and Jon goes out alone to bars. What a sad and lonely life they've created for themselves (I don't care about them, they're adults and made these decisions with their eyes open) but their children don't deserve to live in isolation with few outside friends and little interaction with anyone other than their siblings. Sad.....sooo sad. All for the almighty dollar ---- Greed!

I am more upset by the quotes from people saying she is hateful and worse. Walk a mile and her shoes and see how you are.

I think it is mean to judge. That being said, there is no proof of what Jon did, or did not do. Fact is, judging from what we see on TV, he is belittled by Kate ALL THE TIME!!! I don't know what it is like to have 8 kids, and God bless them for being such good parents but, they guy needs to get out of there for a breather once and a while. Kate is hardly in the episodes anymore, she is no longer the stay at home parent she wanted to be, he is at home, and would prpbably prefer to be out of the house working. Their priorities have changed since the show started. They got a taste of money and success and it seems for Kate there is no turning back, whether it has a negative impact on her husband and kids or not. I wish them well, keep up the good work Jon, you are kind and sweet and very handsom and Kate should realize how lucky she is to have you.

They tried for hardly any time at all to get pregnant before resorting to IVF. They were young and didn't give it much time to happen naturally. I do in some ways believe Kate forced it on Jon. That's not to say she deserves for him to run around on her however... I do think this lady he was with was only a friend -- honestly, when would he have time to cheat?!!!!!!

wow!!! i absolutely love Jon and Kate Plus 8. He has 8 kids and you can tell he loves his kids and his wife!! magazines are just trying to start rumors because they have nothing better to do then ruin marriages! i am 15 and hate that i have to hear this!! Get a life magazines!!!!

wow! this is crazy

I can't even watch the show because Kate is so b*tchy and bossy and Jon is a passive-aggressive punk. Even the commercials are annoying.
He is immature and she is angry, not a good combination.
Sadly, the kids are the ones who will suffer from all the tension and emotional detachment in the house.

Don't you think Spencer and Heidi hate this? They didn't get the cover shot on the magazine because of Jon and Kate and the rumored cheating. LOL Speidi PR machine fail.

I don't want to believe it. I am a mother of a 2 year old and I am Happily Married but sometimes I need "ME" time and I hang out with guys all the time. I wear my wedding band and I talk about my daughter all the time...sometimes when it gets really late and we've been drinking too much I go to my guy friend's house and my husband picks me up in the morning.
I believe that if you are going to go out the way that Jon is I am sure that he just needs HIM time and whatever is going on behind closed doors is none of our buisness anyway. I say let him and his wife take care of their own drama we (the public) don't need to add to the drama with our little quips and suggestions.

I really don't know what to believe. All I know is that for a marriedman to go out to bars alot, without his wife is looking for something he is not getting at home. Jon may say that they are just friends, wouldn't everybody. Maybe it is just friendship, but I think he is looking for greener grass, and let me tell you the grass isn't always greener on the other side, cause once you get there, and you take a really good look at the grass, its brown. If Jon isn't happy , End it. Don't be making Kate look like a fool. and as for Kate, she needs to treat Jon as her husband not a child. Kate your troubles started whne you allowed the nation to invade your private life. I hope that what you are getting paid is worth jepordizing the kids and you life with your husband. To me, the money is whats mportant to you Kate, not what is right for your family. I don't know about you, but from what I've seen from young kids who have been put in the publics eye, they grow up with alot of emotional problems, what kind of life do you kids really have, there isn't anything private about yours or their lives. you have let the public invade you personal lives. If you ask me, you might havethought it was the right thing to do, but was it worth what you nad your family is going through? Or what they will go through if things don't work out. Jon, you ned to remember, you are a role model for your children, and what aare they suppose to think when they hear and read or see Daddy with another woman, your place is at home with your wife and kids, If your not happy, stoop putting those beautiful kids through this b*ll sh*t!

Just out of curiosity... I haven't seen a picture that even shows his LEFT RING FINGER. how are they getting he didn't have his wedding band on?

The bottom line to this whole scandal is that nobody knows what is going on except Jon and Kate and I think people should leave them alone and let them work out the issues they have because everybody has problems, theirs are just public. Leave these folks alone and stp spreading rumors and maybe they can work out whatever problems they are facing.
