America's oldest reality show stars

The Gosselin children have been in the public eye since they were born. But who are the most senior reality stars?



Morty, 91, and Lee Kaufman, 90, are not actors reading a script. They are a real couple from New York. Their daughter knew a casting agent for Swiffer and recommended them for a series of commercials. The couple was cast right away and a film crew was sent over to their home for a two-day shoot. The footage that followed was so adorable and funny they became an overnight sensation. From Morty's "be careful, babe" as Lee steps on a stool to clean with their old mop (aww), to his deadpan "I don't do any cleaning; I make dirt," to their impromptu dances together in the kitchen, to their mutual amazement at how much dirt their new Swiffer mop picks up, this couple has stolen America's hearts.



   

Lee is a retired teacher and Morty is a retired pharmacist. The Kaufman's love story is just as sweet as it looks. Both widowed young in their early 40's. They met and fell in love when Morty's son Scott was in Lee's summer reading class. They married on Valentine's Day, and they say their respective total of six children blended together well. Morty said the secret to their long marriage is compromise and giving in. "No difference of opinion is that important as to interfere with your love for each other," Morty said.

As for what they think of all this publicity? Morty says people stop them for autographs. "We're having so much fun," he said. Lee said, "It's all very exciting."

The dressiest/fanciest thing I'm wearing today is a Judith Ripka sterling silver ring, that I bought on eBay. Not sure the brand on my pants - they are basic black pull on dressy pants - comfortable but look nice for work. Inc. blouse, and Aertrex sandals. Nothing fancy here.

+++++++++++++++++++

I'm wearing a pair of black Gap sweats that I bought brand new with tags for five dollars at fundraiser auction; a 10-year-old light blue Hollister thermal shirt that says "Hollister Surfing Company" on the front, and Hollister Company on the sleeve, and brown suede Bass slippers that are worn out but I don't have the heart to put them in the trash.

It's one of those days (rainy and chilly) when you don't go out if you don't have to. If I give in to my McDonalds cravings tonight, I'll just throw on a raincoat and hope I don't run into anyone I know! Usually I go in my muumuu and pearls, but it's not muumuu weather right now.

BMA said...

The lawsuit did not survive the motion to dismiss yet. Razzmatazz looked at Tuma's motion and re-wrote his complaint. No judge has taken any action at all. It probably will survive, just because it's hard to get the whole thing dismissed. Tuma called Razzy's bluff and Razzy went back to the drawing table. This has nothing to do with the motion that's in front of the court except that it's been narrowed by half.

This is my personal experience with Does. A malpractice suit where a child was hurt during a medical procedure. The doctor was known, the medical student who hurt the child was not. Also unknown was the university that the student represented. So you add a couple of Does to cover the unknown people whose names will be given during discovery.

Razzy's Does are to cover what becomes known during discovery, as in, did Robert's wife play a role, did a nanny or housekeeper help, etc, etc. I believe the reason they threw in John and Jane Doe 1-20 was so BV could use that to scare the Twitter "haters". Since it's doubtful any of them were around in 2009 and in contact with Jon or Robert, it's a silly ploy, but there isn't a big difference between naming two Does or twenty.

BMA said...

The Does are only theoretical. They don't need a lawyer, they don't have to do anything because they don't exist until they are named and served.

No more Nobu? said...

Morty and Lee Kaufman are genuine. I love when he calls her "Babe."

Who when talking about shlumping it to the bus stop, NAMES THE BRAND of sweats they are wearing? Seriously? Wouldn't you just say sweats? What the hell is her agenda with this tweet?

Who "hand me downs" Abercrombie sweats? What 19 year old gives up those gems?
And if so, who hands them down to a near 40 year old reality tv star? Mostly teens shop at A&F and they hold onto the threads until they're nearly disintegrated.
She can't tweet a single thing without PR spin, or it being passive aggressive innuendo. Genuine she is not.
This is why she has so many tweeters attacking her, saying stupid things like this that fly in the face of her demure staged couch interviews.
No brand names for the kids, probably true but then....audi, starbucks, A&F, Iphone, Ted Gibson's NY Salon, weekly tanning....shall I continue?

Tweet-le De Tweet-le DUMB said...

Millicent and BMA, thanks for the DOE clarifications.

I think BVille got some bad information from certain Kate's fans regarding fans "conspiring" with Jon and Robert. I think he left Twitter to concentrate on other things, so he says, because he's embarrassed that he listened to some loony old ladies paranoid imaginings.

lukebandit said...

New funny post from Robert today the 11th on the gosselinbookblog.

I remember when they would post pictures of kate in her horrible outfits at the gas pump on a website, a side bar would come up and it would give the names of the designers and the price tags of what she was wearing. kates was always over 500.00 dollars.

I would like to know how much kate's clothes cost when she went on Bethenny's show. If it were to total 500 or more, how would she explain that?

I slept through breakfast this morning because I was so tired from a treatment the day before, but I had to tell you what I have on and who I am wearing!
A knee lengthed, blue and baby blue arm snap tie back hospital gown from ABC Hospital Gown and Scrub Supply. For my feet, no shoes for this girl, I'm a rebel! Why wear shoes when your bedridden? Just socks for me! Beautiful blue and salt colored socks with dark blue toe and a very comfortable ankle stretch makes them perfect for everyday wear!
White Sheet, White Pillow and bronze floral bedspread from ABC Linens and More Store.

Mamato2Kiddos said...

The recent Twitter video on JK was going around on my Facebook news feed and I found it hilarious. I just went and watched the other videos Robert had on his blog and I was cracking up. My 10 year old was watching over my shoulder and she even enjoyed them.

I have to comment about the broken toe thing as well. A couple of years ago I broke the very tippy top of my middle toe on my left foot, not even the whole toe, and it was painful. I wore a boot, the velcro kind they give you when you wear a cast, for at least 2 weeks before I could manage a shoe. Even then it was only flip flops (thank goodness it was warm!) because anything that covered my toe was a pain and wedges/heels were out of the question. I could not even imagine trying to get an actual boot on. Of course, she could be wearing a slide fake Ugg, but that's not what I think of when Ugg boots are mentioned.

LancasterCountyMom said...

OT: is there anyone out there whose sense of smell got strange after having a cold/bronchitis? Last spring I started noticing a "cigarette" smell when the circulating fan was running in our house (no one else could smell it) and other things don't smell right like perfumes, fruit, and the cooking oil smell around fast food places.

I have looked it up online and have seen that some people get this after having a virus & some get their sense of smell back after a time & some don't. It's been about 6 months now, so I am thinking of checking in with some kind of doctor soon, but was wondering if any of you all have had any experience with this.

Thanks!

Formerly Duped said...

Thanks Call Me Crazy and NJ Gal.

That's disgusting, and to blatantly say they don't want fat people in the store!...my daughter was in there a couple of years ago shopping with a friend. The friend is thin, blonde and pretty. They asked her if she would like to work there after school. Now I get it. That's shocking, and I can't believe I am so out of the loop...however, my kids did find their sizes (both are average, maybe a little under) there and were never treated badly within our local mall store. The management/CEO though really appalls me. Now I in the know and will never shop there again.

Hi BMA. I haven't read completely back in a couple hours, so maybe someone answered my question between now and then ... but since you seem knowledgeable about legal things ...

Even if Tuma is representing Jon non-gratis/pro-bono .. if this lawsuit leads to nothing ... can Tuma ask that WOS pay for whatever time he's spent defending Jon?

Any paranormal activity? Strange smells could mean you are sharing your house with someone from the other side!

Seriously, I'd check it out. Six months seems long enough to wait for your sense of smell to return to normal. I'm wondering, though, if anything really can be done about it. Did you take any medications, such as an antibiotic, that could have caused it? Sometimes certain medications can mess with your senses.

I had bronchitis about a month ago, along with an earache. I didn't take meds and I got over it fine...except sometimes at night I get a weird ringing in the ear that was infected. It's sort of like the Morse Code, not a constant ringing and not enough to keep me awake, but it's annoying. I'm hoping that it's temporary. I hate living with dots and dashes in my ear, kind of like a distress signal from an alien life force. ET phone home! Sometimes I listen for an SOS call. ;-)

BMA said...

Abercrombie is a disgusting company with their ads with groups of teens in bed together, only hiring beautiful teens, etc, but don't be fooled. Abercrombie and Hollister are two different names for the same company. A paycheck for an employee from Hollister will have the Abercrombie name on it. And Hollister has the same hiring practices. They'll approach a group of teens and ask the prettiest, skinniest to apply.

BMA said...

Lancaster County Mom, did you use Zicam when you were sick? That has a reputation for hurting the sense of smell.

BMA said...

Hoosier Girl, I don't know about that. I read that an attorney cannot ask for his fees to be paid in federal court, but Garbus asked to be paid in his response. I'm not a lawyer, just very interested and a voracious reader.

I didn't take Zicam. I had taken it years ago, but haven't for quite a while. I did take Zinc lozenges and then when the cold turned to bronchitis my doctor prescribed antibiotics.

For all you McDonalds fans, I eat healthy but a Big Mac meal has been known to pass my lips every now and again. Yum. Also every now and again, a diet Coke with a Hershey bar. Cravings once in a while will not kill you.

I agree. My grandmother used to say, "everything in moderation." She generally ate healthy and lightly, but she sure enjoyed her "Kentucky Colonel" chicken every once in awhile. She also enjoyed a rum-infused egg nog around the holidays. She lived to the ripe old age of 97, with all her mental faculties intact. Amazing woman.

I think allowing the occasional indulgence is okay. Problems arise if that fast food meal becomes the norm rather than the exception.
Besides, anything that is readily available becomes mundane and "everyday."

==============

Sort of, but not exactly. A&F is the parent company of Hollister, which sells less expensive clothing. It owns Hollister, but Hollister is a division of A&F, a subsidiary. Trading on the exchange for Abercrombie is ANF. At one time it also owned Ruehl 925 stores. I'm not sure if it still sells the Ruehl brand.

lukebandit said...

Also on the list of why kate and Steve are you know...\

When they were at the Outer Banks with all the kids, was it Mady that caught kate and Steve kissing? and flipped out and ran to Cara and told her and Cara flipped out and kate went and talked to them and they went back home immediately.

I am afraid of Steve having that trust over the kids that Jon cannot get into, even though kate put the money in from TLC. If something bad happened to kate, I am concerned that Steve would take all the money and say sayonara! Jon couldn't do anything about it because he was not on the account.

This just proves kate hates Jon so bad for leaving the show and slowing down the gravy train. But the day that Steve leaves her will her hate turn to Steve?

localyocul said...

Thank you Martha!! I just got my phone and started to follow your steps and finally see a decision wheel that looks like the calendar wheel that i can use to scroll to name/url. I have trouble with the ipad too so I'll use your steps for answering. Thanks for answering me!!!

lukebandit said...

When we first found Steve's employer website a couple of years ago, it said that Steve was an executive something. Now I googled and on LinkedIn it said Steve was the owner. He had bosses a couple of years ago. I guess he bought them out with the money that the kids made off their backs for TLC.

I wonder if this is true.

Layla said...

TLC Stinks (2)
Interesting timeline! Especially laid out in chronological order like that. So, Steve became Kate's "personal" bodyguard in early 2008, and she informed Jon that their marriage was over in the summer of 2008. What a coinky-dink.
I'm wearing navy sweat pants and a gray "Johns Hopkins Lacrosse" sweatshirt that my son forgot to pack when he went back to college. Hey, if he leaves it behind, it's fair game, right? I don't think it really qualifies as a hand-me-down (it's not mine to keep), but close enough. Oh, and white socks. It's rainy and cold here, and I have no intention of leaving the house, so I'm going with what's warm and comfy.
As I mentioned, it's pouring rain, and my Aussies hate the rain. They sit by the door, and when I open it, they look outside and then back away. Now they need to "go" so badly that their left front legs are shaking (does anyone else have dogs who do that? I can always tell when my fur babies need to go potty because they sit by the door and their left front legs shake. If the legs aren't shaking, then they just want to go out and play or bask in the sun.) And yet they're refusing to go out in the rain. Of course, it's Jon's fault that it's rainy, and it's his fault that my babies have shaky legs. Curses to you, Jon!

I was essentially saying the same thing. That is why is said "basis"--obviously it has to be proven to have merit. Anyway, when I wrote that, I thought that the motion to dismiss was denied, and, that, therefore, there was a basis for the lawsuit going forward.

Layla said...

I'm reading back over the last couple days, getting caught up, and I noticed the mention of TFW's radio interview. Did she seriously claim that she and Jon couldn't support the kids on an IT and a nurse's salary? What a liar! Of course they could, and they did up until TLC came along.

What TFW means is that she and Jon couldn't afford the kind of lifestyle she wanted on their salaries. She couldn't keep up with Beth with the amount of money that she and Jon made. She always envied Beth's lifestyle, and would do anything to have the big house, the sports car, the pool, trips to the spa, and private school for the kids. She sold herself to get those things (although I don't think any of hers are as nice as what Beth had), and she seems to think she cannot live without all of it. She may not have a choice.

After reading TLC Stinks (2) post, I recall reading that TFW was paying Steve out of her own pocket for personal time with him. She made loads of money, and I have no doubt that a huge chunk of it went into his pocket. What a waste! There was a time when she was spending piles of money on Steve, spas, and plastic surgery. She made so much by fleecing churches, and spent it on implants, massages and her boy-toy.

She says she clips coupons, and yet she buys herself a third car. She says they don't wear top brands, but she spends money on her frivolous lawsuit. She doesn't take the kids on vacations, but she pays for Steve to spend time with her. She claims to spend time laying on her back, fixing her dishwasher herself, but she spends on manicures, pedicures, tanning, and Botox. She keeps chicken so she doesn't have to buy eggs, but goes to NYC for bad bleach jobs and dinners at Fig and Olive. Does any of this make sense?

That is very pink chicken, so she was either in a hurry, used thigh meat which is not quite cooked, or who knows. The broth looks very gelatinous, not very tasty to me. And she has sprinkled some dry green herb on top, but I think just for the picture. Authentic? Hardly.

Here is info about Pennsyvania laws regarding the invasion of privacy claim:

A person who gives publicity to a matter concerning the private life of another is subject to liability to the other for invasion of his privacy, if the matter published is of a kind that

(a) would be highly offensive to a reasonable person, and

(b) is not of legitimate concern to the public.

The elements of the tort are: (1) publicity, given to (2) private facts, (3) which would be highly offensive to a reasonable person and (4) is not of legitimate concern to the public.

Here is info about the concerted action claim:
In pursuit of a concerted action, more than one individual must be involved. These parties, together, then map out, acquire a general consensus amongst themselves, and finally put into action the scheme of plan they set out to accomplish. They possess combined intent to carry out whatever action it is they wish to achieve.

When a pair or individuals, in addition to this grouping, decide to commit such a concerted action, which involves the execution and perpetration of a "common tort" or shared civil wrong, they embody the role of "tortfeasors" or more specifically, "joint tort feasors

Ex Nurse said...

Maybe the Does figure into the concerted action complaint, in which a coordinated attack on TFW's wife character on RWA. Or, could also just be between RH an Jon, I guess.

TLC stinks said...

According to Robert, Jon, Kate and kids took a family vacay at Bald Head summer of 2008. Kate only took pictures of Steve and the kids and none of Jon. This was when they filmed " Gosselins Head South".

In the summer of 2010 at Bald Head was the reported kiss spied by Mady and the evenings alone on the beach with their own bodyguard.

Yes it was in 2008 she told Jon he could live his own life and she'll live hers according to Kevin and Jodi. Jon told Robert he had no proof but thought she had found someone else when Robert questioned him about Steve.

Remember this in July 2009: the tabs reported Kate was spotted checking out condos in Rockville. I remember reading an interview from a tenant who claims they saw her. Don't know if it was true or not but at the time it made sense with the alleged affair in the tabloids.

Is it soup or stew and does that chicken look raw (or is it just me)?

====

It looks raw but for some reason chicken close to the bone always seems to stay pinkish. I don't know why. But those noodles are overcooked and she added way, way too many. She probably threw them in at the beginning, which she shouldn't do because they would be slimey and break up by the time the kids sat down to eat. She wouldn't know, she eats her salad.

Oy Kate. I'd invite you over for a bowl of my homemade chicken soup made from scratch, noodles, stock and all, but I just know I'd end up pushing your face into it.

NJGal51 said...

Judging by the picture of TFW's soup, the kids won't need any lip balm tonight because it doesn't look like she skimmed any of the fat off. Also, if you add too many noodles your soup may become gummy. I'm guessing that they'll get one decent meal out of that. The longer the noodles sit the gummier the soup will become. Sometimes more is not better. How do I know this? Trial and error and sometimes putting way too many noodles in.

Bitchy Pants said...

LancasterCountyMom -- If you took zinc during your illness, that might be your culprit. A known side effect of zinc nasal spray can be permanent loss of the sense of smell. Maybe the lozenges can alter the sense of smell too?

SwingsandRoundabouts said...

I don't like to criticize other people's cooking, but TFW put it out there. That chicken soup looks positively vomitous. For me the best part of chicken soup is the broth, but that looks more like a stew.

I'm not a great cook but I am a good everyday kind of cook unlike my DH who is so inventive and creates culinary adventures all the time. If TFW's cookbook is meant for the beginner cook then the portion sizes are all off. If the book is meant for large families, I would think that by the time a family reaches that stage the cooking would be of a better quality due mainly to time and experience.

TFW's cookbook is basically a vanity project to remind people of her existence and, as others have said, to try for another grab at the golden ring. Or should I say platter.

Let's throw tomatoes said...

The reason Kate and Steve have lasted this long is because it's a long distance romance. They don't see each other every day. Maybe at the most every weekend. What about when he is in Huston with the Little Couple?? He couldn't tolerate her on a daily basis. Again she is different with Steve then she was with Jon.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I too enjoyed your post and agree with all of it.Kate lies shamelessly, all the time.No 'piecing and patching' and purse full of bills for her. Her lifestyle is just about how she wants it, minus the fame which she is trying to cling to with the book and these piddly little interviews.She wants another 'job' in the public eye where she doesn't have to 'work' and be paid for it.

No doubt she delves into the kids' accounts whenever she has a whim for some material thing, plus if she had a savvy accountant, she's doing just fine.and be paid for it.I wonder if the kids feel they deserve their 'golden platter'- they are of an age where they must wonder.

@msgoodie2shoes21@Kateplusmy8 Recently, there were a couple of Facebook profiles of Cara & Mady that I thought were real. I thought Jon or his GF did it because their facebook pages were so personal & had info about them only you or Jon would have. I also thought Robert Hoffman did it since he had a lot of your private info that he supposedly got from the trash.

I could be wrong, then again, I could be right.
========
See, it is all Jon's fault! Ms. Goodie said so! Did she ever stop to think that TFW has put so much info out there about the kids that anyone could create a believable profile? Also, kids at that age have been known to do things behind their parents' backs just because and then deny, deny, deny when caught. I wonder how C&M feel about the fact that they can't have Ny social media accounts while all their friends probably do...especially twitter. #itsalljonsfaultthatthegiantsare0&6

I too agree with your post 100 percent! If TFW was willing to lie in of hundreds of church goers about the state of their finances, she most certainly is lying again in these interviews. TFW doesn't want to work among the mediocre. I believe that was always her goal. And she always and still wants to get free handouts, preferential treatment, and work very little while making big money.
I thought I read somewhere after the divorce that TFW demanded a local hair salon shut down for a few hours to cut the kids hair AND get a discount for it! The place of business was upset because they would loss business while closed for those couple of hours. I wonder how many places of business has had to deal with her demanding preferential treatment. I could see her at the target check out line demanding a discount. I would hope no one would cave in to her demands, but I wonder. It would be interesting to hear what she tries to pull!

Ally said...

I was on vacation last week with some family up in Cape Cod. One of my family members is from the Bethesda/Rockville area of Maryland and we had a conversation about miss Kate. She is not a fan either. Anyway, she said to me, and not sure if it's 100% true, that Kate purchased a condo in the Bethesda/Rockville area of Maryland. Close to Steve? Does that explain the Baltimore Book Festival? Why she always flies out of BWI? Again, I am not entirely sure, but by family member who lives there believes so and she is still looking into it. She just texted me. Hmmmmm....

Gayle said...

Could Jon have created the pages for his girls (when he had Internet) for use when they were at his house? Possibly. If monitored while using it I don't see a problem with kids being on social media. The problem comes in when you don't monitor your kids' Internet usage. Kate is afraid to let her kids be normal kids and do what all their friends are doing and in the end that creates kids who feel they need to keep secrets from her.

Ally that makes sense. I can see Kate buying a condo. A condo is a good investment, tax write-off, property is cheap ( a guy on house hunters bought a nice condo in Atlanta for $40,000, still find that unbelievable ) and best part of all Kate can hole up with Steve on the weekends that Jon has the kids! Interesting to find out if it's true.

I guess Robert also created the fake Cara Tumblr account. He posted exactly like a young fan in Canada would post. He knows all about "Boxing Day" and the Canadian school system! He's good!

Blowing In The Wind said...

The reason Kate and Steve have lasted this long is because it's a long distance romance. They don't see each other every day.

--------------------

I guess I'm one of the few that just doesn't see any romance in that relationship...not that at one time she might have been interested, but I just don't think he's attracted to her in that way. With all of the traveling together they have done, you'd think that the paps or public would have gotten at least one photo of them being together as a couple. No matter how discreet you think you're being, you're going to get caught sooner of later, and there's been absolutely no proof of a romantic relationship...just rumors that were never confirmed.

LancasterCountyMom -- If you took zinc during your illness, that might be your culprit. A known side effect of zinc nasal spray can be permanent loss of the sense of smell. Maybe the lozenges can alter the sense of smell too?

------------------------

You may be on to something there. This was a post on the zinc blog:

"I experienced the same problem as the call-in guest. I tried the zinc lozenges when I was developing a head cold. I lost my sense of taste and smell for a very long time-at least a year. I think I am finally recovered. My doctor couldn’t explain the loss. I eventually found information about the effects of zinc and I made the association."

Blowing In The Wind said...

She says she clips coupons, and yet she buys herself a third car. She says they don't wear top brands, but she spends money on her frivolous lawsuit. She doesn't take the kids on vacations, but she pays for Steve to spend time with her. She claims to spend time laying on her back, fixing her dishwasher herself, but she spends on manicures, pedicures, tanning, and Botox. She keeps chicken so she doesn't have to buy eggs, but goes to NYC for bad bleach jobs and dinners at Fig and Olive. Does any of this make sense?

-----------------

You're talking about TFW here. When has anything ever made any sense? I'm wondering if it even makes sense to her. How could any of that be justified? Wouldn't you think that it would be a daily challenge just to try to figure out what goes on in that head? I'm surprised she doesn't complain of migraines.

Is Milo still sulking, or did she go off somewhere on a beach vacation? I thought she does that during the fall.

The good thing about Kate's chicken soup is it gave me an idea of what to do with the extra roasting chicken I bought this week and didn't freeze. It's a meaty sucker, 6 lbs. I'm making soup and I'll put 1/2 the meat in the soup and with the other half I'll save and make a home made pot pie. I do like egg noodles in my soup, but don't have any, and I'm not going to another store this week. I've got other pastas I can throw in.

According to Goody's logic, Jon and Robert must have created all the fake Kate Gosselin accounts, too. All the pictures on FB, Instagram, etc. have been lifted from twitter, Kate's old img.ly account, Kate's website, etc.

But because Goody hasn't seen some of the pictures, she assumes that they were never posted anywhere and that Jon and/or Robert must be behind it because they have inside info.

Talk about conspiracy theories!! Goody is the queen of them.

There was a rumor a few years ago that TFW was looking for a condo in Bethesda, MD, near Discovery Communications HQ, which is in Silver Spring, MD. Bethesda is right next to Silver Spring, and North Potomac/Gaithersburg, where Steve lives, is a little north of there. TFW denied it, but it would make sense for her to want to have a home base there. She was still with TLC then, and they are a subsidiary of Discovery. Steve is close by, and TFW has been spotted shopping at the Whole Foods nearby, plus she took the kids trick-or-treating in Potomac one year. That was the year that she was sleeping in the van while Steve took the kids from house to house. Plus, it is a very wealthy area. TFW would definitely be attracted to that. Plus the condo she was supposedly considering buying was very close to Steve's office. Reason enough for her to want to be there! It would be interesting to know. I wouldn't put it past her, if only for the close proximity to Steve. I don't think they are "together", but I do believe she is emotionally dependent on him.

Layla said...

Ally (75)
Forgot to add--the rumored condo is close to Steve's home and office and Discovery HQ, but it's not really close to Baltimore or BWI. Both are at least 45 minutes away, more if there is heavy traffic (and there is always heavy traffic around here!). But, she may choose BWI if they have cheaper fares than other airports. We have 3 airports nearby to choose from (BWI, Reagan and Dulles), and they have to compete against each other for business. BWI is definitely closer to where her rumored condo is than the house in PA. And she was closer for the BBF, too.
I wonder...if she bought a condo, could she have bought it under one of her corporations' names? That way she wouldn't technically be lying when she said she didn't buy one--the corporation did (SK8, Inc or one of the others).

Here's how I have always made brown sugar oatmeal. Cook up some Quaker Oats oatmeal on the stove. Place a serving in a bowl. Top with brown sugar and a little milk. Stir. Eat. Delicious.

Then again, I was raised by human beings who took the time to teach their children some basics, like how to cook oatmeal.

I'm surprised TFW didn't include a recipe for buttered toast, so her fans could rave and ask detailed questions, such as "how do you spread the butter around on the bread," and "do you place the butter on before or after you toast the bread?"

IWantNobu said...

That whole Steve and TFW relationship has also baffled me. There was a rumor 4 years ago or so where a DJ saw both of them at a hotel holding hands. I don't think he would make it up. In Robert's book, he also said that TFW looked at Steve in a way that would suggest that there was more going on, other than a professional relationship.

Remember when kate and Steve were spotted a couple of years ago walking in a hotel lobby very early in the morning and a DJ said that he saw kate and Steve walking together holding hands. She was wearing that red leather short jacket and the hair do. There is a picture of them in the lobby that a pap made, but you could tell by the look on their faces that WHEW! they didn't get us handholding!

If the pap got a picture of them handholding, then it is all Jon's fault.

That soup looked awful and I tweeted and told her. She would of been much better off to have bought canned soup similar to that, put it in the crockpot add NO SALT Chicken Broth, cook it for several hours then about an hour or 2 before you want to eat, put the noodles in.

There is a recipe for spaghetti sauce in the CP and in the last 45 mins. to 1 hr. add pasta. Toast your garlic bread, make your salad, and dessert.

How hard is that? It is toooo hard! It is all Jon's fault!

I wish that Jon would of been allowed to cook his Korean meal for the kids ALONE. The kids would of had the good plates and silverware and glasses to eat off of. I think even Emeril was shocked at the prison trays the kids ate from when he was there. Why didn't Jon go secretly to TLC and say look get kate out of here and we will film this episode of me cooking my heritage. Convince her and give her a side project to do, so I can do this. You (TLC) owe me for one good show with my kids without her! We can film her coming in from a trip at the end of the show.

He didn't seem to cry to much that she was in distress or tired same with the broom closet and RV trip or the sky-jump closet.

The fact is that nobody has seen them locked in a passionate embrace or doing the horizontal mambo anywhere. It's all speculation, and although they might be in an intimate relationship, until one of them comes out and declares their undying love for each other, or documented proof of such an affair is made public, it's all speculation and rumor. Anyone is free to believe what they want about the situation, but personally, at this point, who cares? She has bigger worries at the moment (the lawsuit, Robert's book and the tanking cookbook) to deal with. Her relationship with Steve (or lack thereof) is small potatoes.

Tomatoes, there isn't any proof that Steve and Kate are together. The only relationship that I see between them is that she, or someone else, is paying him to be her handler. You seem to see what you want to see where others see nothing. As others have said, if there were a relationship it would have leaked by now. Don't you think the kids would know and in turn would have mentioned it to their father? People have been speculating about this for years and nothing has been proved. Steve knows that he's got an easy meal ticket with her and has hitched his star to that wagon. He may have even signed a contract with her as her manager and is stick with her for the duration. See, just more speculation.

off topic: Government Shutdown-. I am not whining, I am making points to TFW about revenge and to the government about their revenge and how many people it is affecting all over the world.

SNAP crashed today (food stamps) and I have no money or food. I just got the card.

I have never been so scared in my life. I am the one who lost her job over a female supervisor filing untruthfulness statements on me because of my race and old age. I am 54 years old.

Hate in this date and age is really sad, and I thought most had moved on from all that kind of revenge.

My employment appeal has been rescheduled 3 times. It won't be heard until possibly 2014.It is too much stress KG, for me, you, your kids when it comes to on going, never ending legal battles.

I won the UI appeal 3 weeks ago, but I have yet to receive any money from unemployment.

It took 3 months to get a SNAP Card, and now it does not work. I just got it. I did not want to take it, but I had no choice. I have to feed my kids and I. It is very low now, they don't give much.

I should win my job back months from now, but I will lose my home and everything else, and I have no health benefits right now over someone wanting revenge

It is never as good as you think it will be when you purposely hurt someone else. It is like adding sugar to coffee and you end up adding so much sugar, you can't drink it.

That is why I read this blog to learn from you all, and to post things to tfw that might make her reconsider the lawsuit against her husband.

It is not worth it. I will post that everyday to her if admin lets it come through. Leaving a person destitute is not going to make you happy.

I find myself totally disinterested in Skeevio's relationship with his wife, and I also think it highly unlikely that he and TFW have a physical relationship. She barely has a physical relationship with her children, so no I think she just talks the dating/sex game. No warm or fuzzy feelings come from that one. Do I think that Skeevio is somehow embroiled in her financial situation, yes that is the one I think he has himself involved in. In fact he may even have a monthly retainer, which would explain a whole lot of his 'availabilty'. Discovery in court could be very interesting.

Exactly. Where is the proof? Word of mouth? Photos? A hotel clerk who saw them together entering the same room and leaving together early in the morning? Nothing has been made public -- no proof of an affair; and there is no proof that there isn't an affair. We've talked about this until the cows come home, and until it's been proven as fact, it continues to be a rumor.

If "Tomatoes" has inside info, it could be e-mailed directly to admin so it could be verified. She commented that there is "lots of proof." Where is it? Some will believe there is (or has been) an affair, and some will just see Steve as Kate's emotional support person who carries her purse and guides her through the airports. Nothing more, nothing less.

-----

If you read his comments, I think that's really taken out of context. He didn't compare the US to the Holocaust; Mike's daughter asked why somebody didn't do something (the Holocaust). Duggar just retold the story.

I'm no Duggar fan. Not at all, but it's really a stretch to headline an article with him comparing America to Nazi Germany.

His having or not having a business license affects her in what way?

Apparently she's not the only fan who has been bugging him:

Jacqueline Spalding ‏@JacquieSpalding 8

@Allisstair @MKSandAssocInc Insulting Jons kids the way that u & other haters do Jon should be embarrassed to have supporters like you!

MKS & Associates ‏@MKSandAssocInc
@JacquieSpalding @Allisstair Confused about your comment. We ❤the Gosselin kids! We would never insult them, or any children 4 that matter.
______________________

Harvest Moon, it doesn't affect her in any way. She's just trying to make trouble, show Jon's hooked up with a flim-flammer.

As for that Jacqueline, she loves jump in the middle of things, not knowing what's been said. I think she also jumped on the BV and his minions bandwagon.

rainbowsandunicorns said...

Yes, exactly. I think that Steve and Gina are friends. Gina is not going to leak out any info on their relationship to the media. He probably gave her everything she wanted including the house. I would think Gina would want a good relationship with him for the sake of the kids. Not everyone is Kate!

There isn't any proof that Steve and Gina are together and lots of proof that Kate and Steve are!

-----

Where is this coming from? Please share the proof that Steve and Gina are nothing more than good friends and that he gave her the house. If there's no proof, I'm curious as what would lead anyone to make that statement.

The crazed bunny, a fan of Kate's, thinks she has discovered MSK & Assoc. does not have a business license and has been bugging him about it.

Thanks Tweetle - I thought it was something about their license. BB is implying their business license is inactive, but if she'd looked a tiny bit further she'd have seen they are DBA another, associated name. Silly sheeple.

Carezee said...

I wonder why when TFW is interviewed they never ask about her relationship with her family. Her parents and siblings. I think if they did they would find it very telling that she not only doesn't have nor want a relationship with her ex but not her family either. Yet they can say what they want about Jon but he has a relationship with his family and hers. She says everyone that talks and knows her just loves her. Just look at how many people we can list that know her and don't like her. You can't count people like Paige and Em. That isn't getting to know the real person. Where is the guy that was going to be her running coach , the girls that she ran with, Tony, etc.;?

Oh, I find the Kate and Steve relationship extremely important. It's the nucleus ( sp.?) of the Gosselin saga. The breaking up of two marriages, Jon coming through with a damaged reputation that he was the one who left the poor loving mother of 8. Kate keeping the relationship under the covers ( oops! ) has kept her around longer then 15 min., more like seven years. Even after banging Steve while still married she was scamming money from Christian churches . Etc,Etc. I find it fascinating that Kate has fooled so many people about that relationship.

*********
At this point, does it really matter? As far as I'm aware, Steve and Gina are still married to each other. But whatever arrangement they have - that's none of my business. If they are married and sharing a home, then Gina knows full well the extent of time Steve spends with TFW. However she chooses to handle that information is her business.

Kate is a divorced woman. I do think she relies on Steve to help her navigate the outside world, and I think she likes being seen with what many say is a handsome man. For TFW, it's always about appearance. She nagged and browbeat Jon about his appearance (made him get hair plugs, nagged him about his weight, etc.). He didn't stay the same young, fit, and hair-endowed man she married. Thus, he was defective.

Steve has his hair, he's fit, he looks polished and presentable. Thus, he add to TFW's mental self-image. Beyond that, he keeps the pesky fans away from her, tells her what to say in interviews, and makes her feel important enough to rate a bodyguard. If there is any physical relationship between them, it probably is secondary.

Steve is there for the money, and has no scruples how that money is made. In that respect, he and TFW are the same. The children are commodities to be exploited. That's probably what makes their connection this long-lasting - neither of them have any moral scruples.

Yes, this is what it has come to. Half of Kate's landmark (not) lawsuit was thrown out. It's slipping away. The sheeple's thirst for Robert, Jon and the haters to receive the penalty of severeness is looking more bleak by the minute. They need to keep it going, need to throw out more theories. Leaves are falling off the trees? Jon did it. Dodgers lost? Robert masterminded it. Mums are dying? The haters must have sprayed Round-Up on them.

It's all they have. When they claimed they were being bullied on twitter, the haters abandoned Kate's TL. The sheeple begged and taunted the haters to come back.

Reality TV has claimed another victim. Josh Marks, who was runner up on Season 3 of Master Chef, was found dead of an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound. So sad.

Sadder yet is that if so many adults have a terrible time adjusting to life after WILLINGLY exposing themselves on reality TV, how can anyone expect any children, who had NO CHOICE on whether they wanted to be on TV or not, to come through unscathed?

kate would never step a flintstone toe in a "mediocre" place like that. Those places have the best BBQ ever! She might take her kids to the one that serves the food on brown butcher paper, but she would want fish in hers. lol

Layla said...

The TFW/Steve relationship is hard to pin down. I don't think he is romantically interested in TFW. She is just so cold. But she needs a man to "lead" her, and once Jon was gone, she needed Steve to step in and take his place. Hoffman wrote a bit in his book about what he saw of the Steve and Gina relationship, and he also wrote about a boat trip the Gs took, and mentioned that Steve was there with Gina and their kids. So, even after TFW latched onto him, he still had no problem bringing his family along on trips. Hoffman also saw Gina at TFW's house during the DWTS days. That was, I think, in 2010. Long after Steve became TFW's personal bodyguard and months after she divorced Jon. TFW was available, and Steve was still bringing his wife along to her house. That just doesn't sound like something he would do if he wanted to be with TFW. I think she is emotionally dependent on him, and he is in it for whatever money he can get from her. Otherwise, 4 years after the divorce (and if Steve is not with Gina), it would be acceptable for them to come out as a couple. TFW could milk it for publicity and beg for a show about her new, improved family.

I don't think TFW and Steve are doing the nasty. I think Steve is an opportunist who helped sow the seeds of distrust in that marriage in order to weasel in with TFW. He is now her handler, stylist (hence the long, blond hair, short skirts), picking of implant size, and which genre to try to break into. Right now it's not looking to be too great of an investment for him. Whatevah money he invested in their little scheme, I hope he takes it on the chin for. I really don't like him after pizza gate. He totally let the kids take the blame for his stupid pizza incident. I say #LOSER and he gets what he gets and he doesn't get upset.

I do think TFW and Steve have something going on - just because they aren't lovey dovey in public, doesn't mean anything. Remember, she is as cold as a fish. She doesn't display any passion for anything (well, $$$'s only). I think she has a MAJOR crush on him, and I will bet something has happened between them in the past, and that's why "a man would have to be beamed into her kitchen" to go on a date.

I also don't get her wanting a man to lead. She always said that about Jon, but then would do whatever she could to sabotage him.

And just to add - its pretty shitty of her to admit to her sheeple that so only ordered her daughters' 13th bday gift 2 days before the day, and hopes it arrives in time. Give me an effing break woman! Was the Internet closed before then? Or did you want to see what their dad got them so you could get something more expensive.

To celebrate this momentous occasion, we had a wonderful weekend sleepover that included 9 girls total. We made pizzas and had our Gosselin Birthday Cake. We ate too much candy and stayed up wayyyy too late. To be honest, I had as much fun as they did! My girls have a wonderful group of friends with whom I share many laughs and truly enjoy having around.

On the big day (Tuesday) we ate dinner at our local Chipotle (as requested by the birthday girls) and then came home and celebrated with individual cakes — one for each — and ice cream. Then we opened the myriad of presents that awaited my 13 year olds. The smiles and screams of joy said it all…. It was the best birthday ever! Of course. Each one seems to be their favorite somehow!

I'm sure the twins wanted TFW joining them for the sleepover. Note that TFW says we, we, we when it should have been they...

Just no. They can do it in private or wait until they're of age. It's ridiculous to be on reality tv as a child. There's no good reason to be. None. Would you want your own child to be ogled at by strangers on a reality tv show? You're telling me going on a reality tv show was completely their own idea? That the CHILD was the one made the contacts to get on a show?

It's wrong, IMO, any way you slice it. :)

This sleepover would have been the perfect time for TFW to retire to her bedroom suite. Unless Mady and Cara BOTH wanted her there, they are old enough to have a party for 13 year olds sans the 38 year old.

A total of nine girls. Ok, Cara, Mady, TFW, Alexis, Leah, Hannah plus 3 friends? Or maybe the twins actually had 7 friends over. No telling. Whoever was there, I hope Mady and Cara had a memorable birthday.

What in the world? I went to many a sleepover from ages 9-12 or so, even had a special nightgown, yellow with hamburgers and french fries printed on it, in that 'nonflammable' material of the 70s with which you could make sparks with the static by rubbing on the blanket, if your mom forgot the fabric softener. It was so bad that my mom said no, no sleepovers every weekend, because I was a bear for the rest of the week because we literally did not sleep but maybe 2 hours the whole night. And the parents' only involvement was to say, "Don't wake up that baby (when we all crept in to look at it)" or "Go to sleep NOW and I really mean it this time!!" In the morning, they got us up, helped us roll up our sleeping bags and put our things away, filled us up with sugary carbs, and sent our grumpy and sleep deprived selves back to our own houses.
NEVER EVER did they stay up with us. They were in their room. They scared our hell out more than once, coming down the dark hallway to tell us to pipe down or go to sleep, but they were NOT part of the party, nor should they have been. That's weird. They were the parents. We were the kids. It was our party. They let us do our thing because hanging with a bunch of giggling and shrieking girls was not who they were.

Of all the pathetic and narcissistic things she does, this pretty much takes the imaginary Gosselin Birthday Cake. Mountains of presents. Squeals of joy. She is just awful.
