Party Dad


I am going to write about my favorite show Jon and Kate Plus Eight again. Jon Gosselin, the father of eight children, has been in the tabloids a lot. They show him partying and try tell readers that he is cheating on Kate. This is easy for them to do because Jon is young and did miss out on this stage of his life due to the surprise of eight kids.
I have found lots of articles saying this is not true. He said he is just like everyone else and has lots of male and female friends and just because he is on TV it’s bad that he is out in public with a female friend. He also realized that being out late with them was poor judgment on his part and makes him feel extremely bad for what state it is putting his family in. His family is the most important thing in his life and it kills him to see these allegations hurting them.
This incident happened April 18, when he arrived at Legend Lounge in Pennsylvania, near the couples home. Kate was in Bellevue, WA promoting her new book “Eight Little Faces: A Mom’s Journey.”
The alleged incident involving the “mystery woman” occurred a few weeks before TLC announced Jon & Kate Plus 8’s fifth season will premiere on May 25.
This incident followed an alleged February incident where Jon was seen partying with college girls at a Huntington, PA, bar that is located three hours away from the 1.3 million dollar home his family recently bought.
While at that bar, Jon reportedly met some girls from Juniata College, who invited him to a house party where he played beer pong.
I feel bad for Jon because he was too young to have so many kids. He missed his glory days pretty much and now he cannot do the things he is craving because he has a huge family and to make it worse they are taped by a camera crew pretty much every day of their lives.

  1. I agree with you when you say that you feel bad for Jon. I think he did have his kids at a very young age and did miss out on a lot of things that people get to experience. I think the tabloids blow everything out of proportion and make issues out of things that aren't even issues. It's really sad in this particular instance because there are children involved. Someday they will be grown up and able to access articles online and have to read about their dad looking like a bad guy:(

  2. Poooor Jonny Boy! Not only is he tyed down by the old ball and chain but he has 8 more balls to go with that. What Jon needs to realize is that everything he does in now in the public eye and it has an impact on his family. Hopefully this is a lesson that he learned and wont be parading around with the college crew anymore. His beer pong days are OVA! :D
