Children As Leverage

[Blind Gossip] Despite the fact that this couple split up years ago, they continue to fight over the kids.

Here is the latest battle!

He has a job that does not depend on him being a parent.

On the other hand, her whole persona, existence, and earning potential are contingent on her being perceived as a super mom.

After her television deal was cancelled, she even tried filming the children without the permission of her ex.

He put a stop to that.

She hoped that fees from speaking engagements would help her keep up her lifestyle. However, in the past few months, those opportunities have dried up.

She is almost out of money.

What is her plan?

She needs a new TV show with ALL the kids.

Oh, boy.

She does not currently have custody of all the kids – and her ex will not give her permission to film any of the children – so how does she plan to accomplish this?

There is a small window of opportunity for her to get all the children under her roof. She just has to prove that he is a bad parent.

If she gets all the children, and if he gives her permission to film, she’ll work it out so he can have visitation and a good relationship with all of them.

Gee, how thoughtful of her! She spent the past few years turning the other children against him… but is now willing to do a 180 in order to get a TV show.

    “Keeping up with her lifestyle” made me think of the Kardashians but totally not them because the only one that would need permission from an Ex is Kourtney but nothing fits her

    I’m going with Kate Gosselin

    Good for him for getting a real job. Shame on her for using the kids to make money. She used to be a nurse. There’s no reason she can’t get a regular job.

    I tried watching the show years ago and couldn’t finish an episode it because her nagging and passive aggressiveness was nauseating.

    LOL…..This is SO SO SO obviously Kate Gosselin vs. her ex. I woke up in the middle of the night to find my tv was still on, showing some ‘entertainment’ show – and there Jon was, and the troubled son he was accused of beating up.

    Jon and Kate +8 (people are going to say Brad and Angelina, but not them).

    I don’t know. Jon just got into a fight with his son – sone was acting up and Jon lost his temper. Not sure if it will work out.

    Should she get custody? One daughter (drawing a blank on her name) definitely does not want to live with the mom. I also don’t think Kate wants the son in her son – will probably put him outside somewhere.

    It is sad when kids don’t have loving (and instead selfish) parents.

    Kate and Jon Gosselin. I wondered what was really up with the latest story in the news about him assaulting his son. This is beyond shameful. Mommy Dearest, indeed!

    Kate and John Gosselin.

    They are such a toxic pair, and the children will ultimately suffer. Also, does anyone even care to watch another show with them? What more could they possibly do that would interest people? They were becoming irrelevant ten years ago.

    The kids are older now, and no doubt knows the value of money. They probably wouldn’t mind doing the show now sense they will be getting a fat paycheck, and be able to buy the things they want.
    A choice between working at McDonald’s for minimum wages, or being paid a X amount of money for sitting around letting someone film your life. Most 16 to 20 years old would take the job offering them the most money.
