Jon looking for Apartment in NYC

NEW YORK, N.Y. --
Jon Gosselin of “Jon & Kate Plus 8” is hunting for a new apartment in New York City, Access Hollywood has confirmed.
According to Gawker, who first reported the news, the reality star dad was recently spotted at Trump Place in the hallway of the building with a realtor on the eighth floor.
Finances must not be an issue for the father of eight, as rent for the available one bedrooms on that floor start at $3,600 per month, while a currently available studio is listed for sale at $639,000.
The couple reportedly makes up to $75,000 per episode of their hit TLC show.
The reality star would be in store for a much different life if does decide to relocate from his Berks County, Pennsylvania, home to the Big Apple. His new Upper West Side 21-story building includes a health club, pool, sauna, nursery and a view of the Hudson River.
In more “Jon & Kate” news, the embattled reality couple takes turns addressing their relationship in individual confessional interviews in a new promo for their series.
“We haven’t really known where we were going, but we’ve been dealing with this for a long time,” a visibly emotional Kate tells the camera. “[It’s] a slow progression that has not popped up one day. It’s not been like a secret… We’ve been dealing with this for a long time.”
Jon seemed to echo his wife’s troubling sentiments, noting the strain on the couple’s relationship was not brand new.
“It just got worse and worse and worse,” he said to the camera. “With all the tabloids and all that, it just made it even worse.”
Tabloid reports have suggested Jon has been cheating on his wife. And while Jon did not address those claims directly in the new promo, he does admit he is not the same man he used to be.
“People think I’ve changed and I have changed. But I’m now the person I know I am,” Jon said.

Kate Raises the Kids All Alone?

I just read an article in Life & Style Magazine's June 15, 2009 issue. The article is titled "Kate's raising eight kids ALONE". The article makes Kate seem heroic and the ideological parent. It said that she is raising all the kids alone while Jon drinks all the time and goes shopping. First of all, Kate took the sextuplets to the beach solely for the show "Jon & Kate Plus 8". Jon, more recently, has opted for staying out of the show as much as possible.

From what I heard Maddy and Cara stayed home because they had mandatory school. Jon watched over them and picked up the house, pratically the whole time. Because Kate is a workaholic and lets her kids be watched all the time, does not mean Jon should be demoted as the lesser parent. I am one hundred percent, fully on Jon's side, since day one.

I have watched pratically every show and I see the tension in their relationship but I don't think that is Jon's fault. Kate likes to scream and control and lower Jon on the show, and that makes me wonder what she treats him like in real life. The controversy over whether or not Jon has cheated with accussed Deanna Hummel, I don't believe he did. Simply, he has done nothing but compliment Kate and care for Kate and the children throughout the entire series.

It takes a lot for a man to give that superiority of supporting his family so that the wife can go out and do her thing and Jon did that for Kate. Kate has spent multiple months away from her children, doing her book tours and other things.

Comments Made in the Article:

TEAM KATE

- "It all started with Jon's affair rumors. It went downhill from there." Okay, I understand that. Jon's affair rumors truly did spark the 'separation', but I think Kate was planning on that. I did not see sorrow in Kate's eyes when she talked about it... It almost looked like she was intent with Jon's mishap, almost reliefed. And plus rumors don't mean that it is true.

- "Jon needs to work on his marriage and not go off partying!" How does she know what Jon does? If there are three pictures of Jon at a bar; three days out of a year is barely any. If you lived with a wife who didn't appreciate you, wouldn't you want to go to a bar to release your tension, then go home mad. He stops himself from doing something stupid.

- "I'm on Kate's team because I think Jon messed up." Jon made a mistake, since when are people so superhuman that they don't make mistakes. Everybody just makes assumptions that he did the deed, and people don't have any trust anymore.

- "I'm for Kate. Jon's cheating for sure." Once again, how does she know? Can she say that she has a such a bonded relationship with Jon that he conversates with her about this? The only people who know the truth is Jon and Deanna, or who ever else he MIGHT have slept with.

- "I'm on Kate's side. He shouldn't be out with other girls." Okay, well do you, as a girl, have guy friends? Do you sometimes hang out with those guys as friends? I would think so. Why does Jon have to be on a level where he can't hang out with girls as friends? Isn't he human too?

TEAM JON

- "I feel like he's trying and willing to work things out." That is exactly what I feel. Kate acts like he chooses to walk out of those kids life and be out on his own. Jon loves those kids with his whole heart, and it's wrong to deny that.

- "Kate needs to help and be more of a mom." Everybody tries to act like Jon is a bad parent that they don't care to observe Kate. Jon hasn't been there as much recently, but for all we know Kate won't let him. I recall Jon use to go to work, come home, play with the kids, bathe the kids, brush their teeth, and put them to bed.

-"Kate doesn't really do anything. She just sits there." Exactly, she basically cooks. I mean I am not trying to bring her down but its wrong to downgrade Jon, when she is not perfect. He use to do pratically everything.

- "I think he needs to admit he was wrong, but I'm on Jon's side." And that is exactly what Jon did. He said you know, I made a mistake but I didn't cheat on Kate. Why can't people believe him? Because Kate can be a bit of a superficial celebrity. More like a celebrity?

- "I'm leaning to Jon's side. Kate's a little harsh." That is exactly my point. What would you do if your wife made fun of your weight and bossed you around all day?

My Feelings Towards Jon Gosselin

I think that Jon Gosselin never cheated on his wife; he just feels really pressured. For those of you who don't know Jon is from the show Jon & Kate Plus 8. Him and his wife Kate have 8 kids out of two births. The first pregnancy they had twin girls: Madelyn and Cara. The second pregnancy they had sextuplets of three boys and three girls: Aaden, Joel, Collin, Leah, Alexis, and Hannah. While recently he has been accussed of cheating on Kate after photos surfaced of him and a young teacher named Deanna Hummel out on the town at two in the morning. Now, just by that evidence alone, most men are guilty. But as an avid watcher of Jon & Kate Plus 8, I know that he loves his family and if something did happen he did not mean too. I am 100% on his side for the sake of Cara, Maddy, Alexis, Hannah, Aaden, Collin, Leah, and Joel. Sure in the show, the pressure gets to him a lot. Kate can have a bitty of a over bossy personality filled with bickering and commands, while Jon is very go with the flow and having fun. He basically has do all the heavy lifting: play with the kids, seat the kids, bathe the kids, brush their teeth, put them to bed, and any house work as well as his job. Whereas Kate does a lot of prepping: making food, picking clothes, packing for trips, taking pictures, etc. He has a lot going on his life that most dads would crack under pressure with. Jon also hates the attention of paparazzi due to the show being really popular. He feels like you know... He never has time to himself, to lay low and hang out and be who he is. This is reminiscent of our very own Robert Pattinson, except he deals with it in a more subtle way, is way more popular and hotter than Jon, no offense Jon because I do think you are adorable for an older guy with 8 kids.I think that the best type of therapy for this situation is for Jon and Kate to sit down and talk everything out with open & understanding hearts. I do think that Jon could probably start a blog for fans and they can help him understand why he gets so much attention & why we apperciate his show.

I hope everything works out between them because they are an adorable couple, make adorable kids, and do the most incredible job parenting in their circumstances. Love Your Show, Gosselin Family.
