TLC issued a firm denial to a published report alleging that Jon Gosselin's girlfriend, Deanne Hummel, will appear in future episodes of Jon & Kate Plus Eight. "There are no plans to use her," says a network spokeswoman. "We are in hiatus and all future episodes haven't even been planned." Monday's episode of the show, in which the Gosselins announced their plans to divorce, attracted a record 10.6 million viewers.

hmmm…kind of makes the whole denial of “her” a moot point.
Sure, Jon…you didn’t cheat on your wife. What a sleaze bag.
Is it true Jon is scheduled for the next ‘Celebrity Apprentice’ and that is why he is looking for an apartment in Trump Tower? TLC did feature an episode of him doing charitable work on his own.
“there are no plans to USE her”. Funny way of putting it…could have said “there are no plans for her to appear on the show”…use being a key word in how this show has been run. TLC is just using this family’s misery to garner ratings and especially using the kids to make a buck at the expense of a happy childhood.
Divorce, It’s The New Marriage.
Jon- immature but good hearted
Kate- BS
Jodie- Help!! (beth, Grandpa & Grandma as well)
To Carter Forster (London): I’m not a hypocrite. I wrote that comment, simply because it was all over the media that Jon cheated with Deanna Hummel, he DENIED it on the show and now she is his girlfriend. So, why did he bother denying it? Not only did he cheat, but he lied, too. And he is a sleaze bag…a grown man who talks about how he’s 32 and his life can begin (as he said on Monday’s episode)…he has eight kids…his life needs to revolve around them and not his 23 year old girlfriend.
I have no doubt in my mind that TLC will try to capitalize on the “mistress” angle.

Jon did the charity thing because that was the week he was in Utah with his girlfriend while he left Kate home alone with the kids to celebrate her birthday. TLC had to create some tie-in to something decent so viewers would not all bail in disgust. Jon said it was just bad timing. How many wives out there whose husbands have missed their birthdays because the husbands planned ski trips with their girlfriends would think this was an error in “timing”? Like or dislike her, for Father’s Day, Kate helped the kids make cards for their dad. On Kate’s birthday, Jon leaves on a trip with his girlfriend. You don’t think the kids notice this difference in treatment and behavior? They understand respect and the lack of respect being given their mom by their father. (Were they also not at the home when Jon had Deanna at the house sunbathing while Kate was on a business trip? No wonder Aaiden ? was talking about having his girlfriend over at his crooked house. Jon now is trying to revise history.
Here’s the thing guys, we have no idea what actually went down. Sure, the way that TLC edited the episode on Monday made Jon look as if he was excited about a new beginning (a sentence which was enough to make me cringe.) but it very well could have been edited out of context. The only thing we can do as viewers, is fault them both equally. Kate is no walk in the park as a spouse (so it seems) and the tension of being filmed is insane. The two of them started this show with all intents and purposes of using it to provide for their children. Is it heartbreaking what is happening? Absolutely. Is it more one person’s fault than the other? No. Stop trying to place blame, both husband and wife are the bad guy. The only victims here are their children.
LG from VA pretty much nailed it on the head
if you wanna see a video of Jon with his new girlfriend (jerk!!) they have one over at http://jjpeg.com/watch28015.html … they ALSO uploaded the divorce papers for any of you who want to see them to http://www.vostuu.com/file2018451.html
If he really cared about the kids he would have put his feelings second and gone to counseling for their sake. He can’t blame her for taking the lead on everything when he never tried to take any initiative himself. She was in a catch 22. She was damed if she didn’t take the lead because the family would fall apart and she was damed if she did take the lead because it would immasculate him and he would leave. Real men get involved and take responsibily for their marriages and families. If he had been doing that from the start he and his whole family would have been healthier and happier…. and together.
well this is the classic be careful what you wish for. I don’t even watch the show, but saw them splashed all over the place. Jon not so mature for a guy with 8 kids. Kate just is doing what all women to do…keep your schedule and kids life in gear. This is a problem when one partner checks out. Yes, you do get angry, yes, you feel like everything is on your shoulders and yes, someones got to do it. A partner would pitch in some way shape or form…not run off to Utah. Both at fault but someone has to parent those 8 little miracles.
hey jon and kate ,i know marriage has its its ups and downs ,but think about those 8 wonderfull kids you have ,if it wer,nt for them you would’nt be on that show and recieve all that money and fame ….
