<p>I thought the T-Shirt was a IUP shirt - Indiana University of Pennsylvania. I have actually seen Jon wear a number of different College t-shirts from area colleges.
Not to condone this new “relationship”, by any means. </p>
<p>Jon is immature yes - but Kate is no angel in this. She wanted a boy she could control and she got one.
Kate IS terrible. She was always that way - overbearing and greedy. He didn’t make her that way.<br>
In any case - it appears she has been in Hollywood selling the twins.</p>
<p>I can’t help but wonder if Jon and Kate (especially Jon in this instance) actually see this “break from the show to deal with our issues” instead as "alright!!! vacation time from each other and the cameras! Let’s party!!! </p>
<p>Stuff like this business with Jon, being very public with his relationships, makes it very hard for me to see how they are going to put ANY type of face on for a show.</p>
<p>jmho, i don’t think they’d want him in any future episodes now…
that is indeed one horrible photo showing him and the woman puffing away ! very trashy ! i saw the same photo this morning linked on another news site.</p>
<p>hope kate is feeling less stressed now…we can only imagine what stress she may have been under for so many years.</p>
<p>and tell me - what 23 year old would even consider “hooking up” with a 32 year old father of 8 small children who’s not even divorced?? Where are HER brains??</p>
<p>is there any chance that all of this is a publicity stunt to boost ratings - so that when the show returns in August (or whenever) that they will be reconciling and people will tune in the watch they get back together? </p>
<p>isn’t it a little odd that a famous only for being a wimpy father of alot of kids is getting to go on the yacht of the Ed Hardy designer??</p>
<p>I have been saying this for a long time. Jon has been the “be happy - don’t worry” type. He doesn’t WANT to have to do anything. If Kate hadn’t organized things, that household would have been a mess! He resented her doing the books and going on tour, but who is paying for his trips to St. Tropez? All he wants is to have a good time. Kate is the one who is doing what she can to keep things together. And for someone who hates the spotlight - what was he doing going to St. Tropez? That is one of the jet set playgrounds and crawling with paparrazzi. I remember the episode when Kate got her plastic surgery - she and the Dr.'s wife became friends, then for this to happen…I can’t imagine how she must feel. BTW, if a man had organized and run his business the way Kate has, he wouldn’t be considered with the same amount of animosity. I thought she was at times harsh, but I also could see why - Jon wasn’t exactly Johnny-on-the-spot.</p>
<p>Her early history just before and after the 6 were born indicates she was a selfish B from the getgo. I would not be surprised that the multiples were part of HER plan.</p>
<p>I just feel sorry for the kids. But, I don’t think it was a publicity stunt- their pain seemed too real on the last (hopefully forever last!) episode. I mean, honestly, how could they possibly work all of this into their show? I just hope they put their millions into a trust for the kids…</p>
<p>HMmm, glad to see a little bit of a tide swing for Kate. There was an awful lot of bashing going on about her, but the truth is that Jon was never mature enough for marriage, never mind kids. Hope she’s tough enough to handle it on her own, I’m thinking she will be once she gets over the humiliation!</p>
<p>Yeah, without the girlfirend, Jon could have kept all the sympathy for him that has built up over the years. And it wouldn’t be a bad thing for a reality show to feature a “happily divorced” couple who deal with their kids and each other in a mature manner. We could have watched Kate with the kids and Jon with the kids. Lot of divorced families could relate to that. But I don’t think very many viewers want to see Jon + young GF with the kids.</p>
<p>Oh Kate is tough enough, no doubt about that. She is a mover and a shaker.
The problem most people have with her is “at what cost”. Any father that made his kids do what Kate makes her kids do would be looked upon as “overbearing” and “heavy handed”.
While making her way through life, browbeating everyone she comes across to get what she wants she has successfully alienated her family, friends and community.</p>
<p>I’m starting to get this creepy feeling that because the tide seems to switch back and forth (from one to the other being the “bad guy”) that it’s this kind of situation: Jon is off on his vaca with hot young chickie. Kate is home, boiling mad and counting the days till her days “off”. Sometime in the next few days, Jon’s vaca is over - so sad - and he must “report” home for kid duty while Kate gleefully packs her suitcase and heads off for her “vaca time”. Ugh.</p>
<p>Hey, this is a business trip for Jon. He’s discussing a line of kids’ clothes with the yacht owner. He’s not ready to go back to the low paid life of an IT guy (can’t blame him for that). Why would anyone think he knows anything about designing kids’ clothes?</p>
<p>just noticed on a news site…there’s more pics out (of the woman and a friend)…ugh…it gets more awful and awful…kind of like another train wreck.</p>
<p>PerezHilton I’m hearing rumblings that Jon Gosselin’s new girlfriend is not only a hard-pAArtier, but she’s also bisexual too! She likes a good time!</p>
<p>Exactly where did Jon get all his $ for this big vaca? Freeloading off the hard work of his kids and their mother. That’s just about as lowlife as a man can get. Dr. Laura’s first advice would be to tell him to get a job! Then it would be for him to stop being a big baby and act like a father instead of a whiny baby. He’s gross.</p>
