kateplusmy8 Excuse me, but where is MY coffee? There's snow outside, our Christmas break has started, everyone is lounging...so I think it's time I get to try some coffee! 😂 #Nanuq #ThinksShesAHuman

I really hope to God that she's not thinking of giving #NookiePookie coffee or anything else with caffeine in it. It's not cute or funny and it could be deadly.

chefsummer #Leh said...

We know how she does it: Steve plus two nannies.

I don't understand why the 8 still need nannies.

All This Is That said...

I was looking at Kate's Twitter and see that it's nearly dead, expect for a few of the non-fans, and one with a vile mouth. Although the person changes the Twitter name, you can always tell it's her (or him?) because none of the others use such gutter language!

I don't check her IG. Does she delete crude comments on there?

Has Milo surfaced anywhere?

Sad but true said...

New IG. How KIND of Kate to post this video of her BFF Jamie. The opening frame is beyond horrid. Jamie's put on a lot of weight, and she still has the Kate fingernails. Gross.

Ah, holiday fun and games with friends.
And Collin is...where?...doing what for the holidays?
This chick is certifiable. 2 days ago on Dr. Oz boohooing about how hard her life is,and now she's bunking with her bestie, having a fun girls weekend.
You'd have to see it to believe it.

Tucker's Mom (#6), uh oh, if this video doesn't get Gladys out of her sick bed to join the fun, then she may truly be in bad shape.

Yup, just the usual holiday frolics at Miss Gosselin's Home for Exploited Children. Eight kids, seven kids, whatever -- pass the egg nog...

It looks like they're playing in a bedroom on a bed. Weird. Can't she be a grown up and play games in the living room?

That game was just featured on Little People Big World's "game night". She is watching, and copying.

There is a bunch of clutter, papers, in the background. Freaking put stuff away! GRR!

I doubt this is a fun filled weekend for her; her bestie is there to help hold her together. Her date with the Court must have her breaking out in hives.

Jeanne said...

NJGal, I thought the same as you when I saw that game advertised. Do you really pass the mouth thing around? Cringe.

The kids would not need nannies at their age if Kate would come out of her room and be a mom. Someone has to drive them to and from the school bus, keep them from attacking each other, supervise homework, possibly make dinner and supervise dinner. I honestly don't believe Kate does what mothers do. Most mothers listen to after school stories, make sure homework gets done, eat dinner with! their kids, send them for baths and bed. Twelve yr olds can of course eat dinner, take a shower, get ready for bed but aren't always good time managers. I truly suspect Kate is in her room watching tv and playing on her phone, separate from the kids.

Jeanne said...

I am watching an episode of Chopped that was first aired earlier this month. It has all reality stars. I'm so confused. Kate is such an amazing cook; why isn't she on it. You can tell they're not as good as pro chefs but they're better than a lot of us.

GollyGee said...

That video is awful.

Funny, they are playing this type of game. You can't understand what Jamie is saying but if she testifies in court, she will have to speak loud and clear and tell of the abuses that her bestie did to Collin and the kids.

GollyGee said...

The fingernails were gross.

Looked like she didn't clean them good enough to get the sticky cinnamon roll bun dough out from under them!

They are acting like stunted 12 year olds.

Thought it was funny that it was BBQ something and Moldy Muffins.

She used to send moldy food to school until they ate it. And that is not funny.

NJGal51 said...

Me thinks some has been buying "likes" on Instagram. She normally doesn't get over 4K and for this one she's got almost 17K. Things that make you go hmmmmmm....

I know this was talked about a few weeks ago but this article very succinctly sums up what Kate is accusing Jon to the police. WOW! She is one sick puppy. It is appalling. But it is great evidence of her turning the kids away from their father. It is also great evidence that Kate is not rational when dealing with Jon.

What is not in the report is Kate she told an officer, she feared her gun-owning ex would engage her in “a hostile dispute.

I don't remember reading that part. I really feel sorry for Jon having to put up with this garbage. Even though there is no new revelations I suggest everybody read this very short article.

TLC stinks said...

Disgusting. Acting like drunk 13 year olds. And cutting up with her bestie while her son is locked away and CPS is investigating her. Needless to say, she and Jamie are loaded and that's why she posted that video. Not normal at all. Look at me....not a care in the world!

FlimsyFlamsy said...

I won't watch her lame video, but I assume the boys aren't there. She'd never engage in any unstructured, silly, carefree fun with her sons without TLC's cameras rolling. And she certainly wouldn't go near anything her icky, dirty boys' mouths had touched.

Sad but true said...

Leslie said... 22

Unfortunately, they didn't publish the police reports in their entirety. Or rather, they did, but some of the text was not readable because of the way the laid it out. But I'm sure these are available if you wanted to search them out.

Yeah, K8 really threw everything, including the kitchen sink, at him. This all seems to have happened right before/after her big 4-0 Mexico getaway.

Sad but true said...

Jeanne said... 18

I think all K8 knows about cooking she learned from grandma. So if she was presented with a basket of exotic ingredients, chances are she'd have no idea what to do with any of it. She not good under pressure in any circumstances, and I think she knows it.

NJGal51 said...

This after she went on and on about how much she loves guns/shooting during the paint ball game. They even showed clips of her shooting on one of their other vacations.

NJGal51 said...

It's the week before Christmas and Jamie has to drop everything and leave her family to be there to support TFW? Either she's a really, really good friend or has been called to testify. I wonder if she would lie (under oath) about what she's seen. If TFW hadn't alienated her family maybe she'd have a little more local support and Jamie could stay home with her family.

TFW is a disgusting human being to make such allegations. All because Hannah reportedly wanted to stay with Jon due to all the fighting going on between TFW and purse boy. She also alleges he is a drug dealer, and has inappropriate contact with Hannah. Sounds like slander to me.

She is friggin' nuts and now that her son has been removed from her care, the Court is aware of some of her tactics in dealing with Collin. The Court can no longer take her at her word, because all is not hunky
dory in that house. Things just disappear in the compound - the chickens, the bird, and her son.

The two remaining boys are second class citizens, Cara is silent, Alexis looks frustrated a lot of the time - way to go TFW! Five of your 8 kids are not functioning well with filming. But you do it all for THEM. GFY!

And yes, I am sick of this narcissistic liar, who does everything for herself! Time to end this the circus her kids have had to live to keep HER happy.

I thought Jamie has visitation, which makes you go hmm? on a few levels. Most of all, Jamie obviously has some sort of custody arrangement with her ex, which allows her to do things like leave home to visit with Kate. I don't get how Jamie supports Kate knowing how Kate doesn't support her own children seeing their father, and running the bus over him time and time again.
I just think Jamie are Kate are cut from the same cloth, when it comes down to their values and priorities.

I was never 100% clear on this, but it wouldn't surprise me if she gave up primary physical custody when she married her doctor (funny how she got Kate's dream). She seems almost as self-centered as K8.

Turn out the lights said...

It was stated years ago Jamie didn't have custody of her kids. But she has remarried, so how does she have time to drop everything and help doofus make cookies?
Her visit has to pertain to the legal issues.
Leave it to Kate, she finds a way to use her 'friends' while they are here for custody issue!
Hey, if they want free room and board while staying with Kate they need to earn their keep! Get to baking, girls!

In the episode with the discussion about scheduling computer usage, there was a scene with one of the boys trying to do homework & one of the girls was interrupting & teasing him. The girl had Zorro in her shirt sleeve. So he was still alive at the time of that filming which was...uh, I've lost track since they air so long after they film.

TLC stinks said...

Yes, Jamie is an odd bird. She's also a hanger-on. Funny how she and Kate used to dress alike. Weird. That game....she was loaded. Wine snorts in front of the kids. Remember that selfie of her in Kate's bathroom in a robe? Wonder if the besties sleep together as in a tween sleepover? Oh, and don't forget Jamie on the kitchen counter (in her nasty bare feet) cleaning Kate's range hood? So Jamie knows how to HELP Kate unlike Jodie and other family members. No doubt she knows how to HELP Kate in court also. Didn't Jamie get caught by a pap either yelling or spanking a tup?

Jamesvader1194 said...

IF Jamie is there because of the court case to testify,im a bit surprise they asked her and not Deanna.She's the one who bragged before about how she knew everything that went on in that house.Im not sure how often Jamie visits but i've never seen her did what Deanna did and try to brag about what she knew.Then again i herd the reason she went private on twitter was because there was something she did to Collin in one of the episodes that a hater called her out on and she went private because of it.

Rainbirdie (#39), thanks for the Zorro update! And (#42) I can't imagine what kind of knee-slapping hilarity is going to ensue at Space Camp.

Right, Admin, as I figured. Let's hope Jon's attorney has had Jamie and Andrea thoroughly investigated. If this is all Kate's got, that's not saying much considering both were paid by TLC. I doubt any relative will testify to Kate's behavior as a mother since there has been no relationship with family for years. I feel terrible for the kids. I can only imagine they are under tremendous pressure from Kate. It's tough.

*****************************************
Yes and yes. But in the long run, I don't think it will matter much what either one says as any judge with experience will be able to see through whatever stories they cook up. I would think Kate's attorney could play snippets of the episodes where they were being very truthful about Kate's behavior. And admin would probably agree with me that there is no way that a witness and their lawyer could prepare for every possible question that the opposing attorney could ask.

FlimsyFlamsy said...

TLC stinks (#47), just think, all the effitybillion pictures TFW has tweeted over the years of plates of slop, and half-decorated trees, and her daughter in high heels, but not one...NOT ONE...of a single relative with her kids. All her golden platter bragging, yet she's personally, directly, and intentionally deprived them of the gift of FAMILY. And they can never, ever regain the time they've lost and the special relationships they may have cultivated. She's a horrible mother.

Unfortunately, virtually ALL of the "witnesses" Kate could call (will they really do this for a custody hearing?) are people that have either been paid by her or by Figure 8/TLC. That's a huge conflict of interest right there. Jon, on the other hand, presumably does not have this sort of problem. If he could get Ashley to come in and tell the truth, that would be a coup. I don't think she and K8 ever really warmed up again after the RV episodes.

I don't now what to make of Deanna's silence all this time. On the one hand, she stepped way out of bounds on Twitter on K8's behalf, so maybe she's just decided to keep it shut. On the other, maybe even SHE was flabbergasted that Collin actually had to leave home, and so she's not talking. They must still be "friends," of whatever sort K8 has, cuz she's still doing make-up for the show.

jolie Jacquelyn said...

I don't see a wedding ring on Jamie's finger, so maybe her doctor husband is out of the picture & the kids are with their Dad.

I'm also wondering what happens if Jamie lies for Kate.

GollyGee said...

*****************

The video will backfire. It has too!

Her and her friend playing games, allegedly hitting the sauce in front of the kids and Jamie looked like she had been hitting it, while her CHILD has been gone FOR MONTHS!

She is such a good, little buttercup. She just sucks it up and GOES ON like nothing even happened with Collin.

If Jon is dead to her, so is Collin. If he told of the abuse she did to him, then he is because he betrayed her in her sick mind.

Wonder if the trial will be tomorrow, Tues. or Wed. for Andrea and Jamie to be there over the weekend?

Realitytvkids.com ~ Administrator said...

Unless Jamie was there for every encounter Kate's had with her children, I wouldn't care much what she has to say if I were the judge. Just a useless character witness. In child abuse, the fact that your best friend thinks you're the greatest has no relevance as to whether you harm your children.

I would care much more about the psychological assessments, and the statements of the children, and whether those statements sound credible, or coached.

That's how it works in my court. 90% of the case revolves around what the children have to say. You'd have a hard time even being given the opportunity to call Jamie in the first place. What's the relevance?

Vanessa said...

ha. did you see where she says "They love to fish, from a dock. I enjoy being way out on the water on a boat" with a little eye roll. THAT was an eff-u to us or her kids.
Of course she gives the bag of dog poop to one of the boys to dispose of.

FlimsyFlamsy said...

Susan1956 (#48), yes, I would hope any competent judge would see through the facade TFW tries to present. Her own words and actions on film prove again and again her weaknesses as a parent. And her Twitter history shows she lets others bash the father of her children without complaint. Deanna's tirade with personal information about Jon and the children's Christmas gifts was beyond the pale, yet TFW did not publicly ask her to stop.
Where was her concern for her children's privacy that night?

GollyGee said...

If someone lies on the stand, who swore to tell the truth when they were sworn in court and it is proven that they lied, no matter who it is, they will get charged with perjury and be arrested.

I don't think Jamie wants to go to jail for TFW. I agree with the poster that said Jamie and TFW have not warmed up like they were since the RV trip. She was fed up with her antics and the other girl got so fed up, she left.

Jamie is just not THAT into her to lie and get caught.

If Jamie is not a character witness, then she is there for moral support. The reason stated by Kate that Jamie and Andrea were there to help bake makes absolutely no sense at all. Wonder if the court date was last week or is early this week. Would there be court hearings Xmas week? Something has to be going on because Kate will not want all the kids with Jon on Xmas. And then there is the possibility of Collin seeing Jon for Xmas. It must be coming to a head before Xmas, IMO.

jamezvader1194 said...

@Admin 58 I mean,like i said in my last post,i don't know how often Jamie visits but Deanna claims she knows everything that goes on in that house,NOTE im not saying that she really does but if she was called to the court as a witness and Jon has the tweets where she claims to know about what goes on.There could be a chance where Deanna could be caught between a rock and a hard place because she can't say all is well because she could get caught in a lie and get into trouble so she'd either have to throw Kate under a bus and claim what she saw but on the other hand if she admits that she really doesn't know everything that goes on then that the tweets about Jon she made would make her look like an ass.

Realitytvkids.com ~ Administrator said...


This is all pure speculation as no one knows that Jamie is there for a hearing, but it's not a child abuse case it is a custody case so it really doesn't matter whether character witnesses are relevant in child abuse cases.

&&&

No one said it wasn't speculation. Character witnesses aren't all that important in either child abuse cases or family law cases--or frankly, most cases. In fact in criminal cases, the Federal Evidence Code provides that character witnesses are not relevant to prove that a person always acts a certain way. They're only allowed under a few circumstances. Think about it, does it make sense to allow evidence that someone is a wonderful person and pastor when they committed a heinous murder? Doesn't prove they're not a murderer. By the way, child abuse courts ARE family law courts. They are just a branch of civil-family law.

I watched a re-run of The Pioneer Woman's Christmas special (couple years old, I think?) and there were fun games for the kids. I think it was a roping contest.
Ree is there cheering on her kids with the gusto of a mom. She participated, sort of just to be a good sport, for sh*ts and giggles, but the focus was ALL the kids.
Whenever there are family games, Ree plays along, not taking herself too seriously, and never like GAME ON!!!
You know, like Kate who actually thinks competing with children is a level playing field.

I guess Alexis hasn't mastered the whole 'mind over matter' thing yet.

Realitytvkids.com ~ Administrator said...

Would there be court hearings Xmas week?

&&&&

Yes, court are open all Christmas week and the week after. Only Christmas Day and New Year's day are typically taken off. Because they fall on a weekend this year most courts take the following Monday off. When Christmas Eve is on a weekday I've usually worked right up until the end of the day then ran off to church.

It's actually a good time to play catch up on some cases that are dragging out too long or that will require several hours in court with testimony, because usually the schedule is lighter over the holidays.

Oh and lots of people in the law are Jewish so many people happily work over the less-crazy holidays.

Such manipulation. Kate knows the cameras don't lie, and have shown years of the kids being nasty and physical. So, she tries to change the narrative.
Also, that's how you speak about toddlers.
"We do this, we don't do that" is the mentality of a 4-year old.
Don't get me started on Kate telling Dr. Oz that she has to sooth the kids' "owies" from seeing their father!

Kate had her full hair blow out and like hell if she was going to get wet. The way I saw those TV episodes, Steve and Kate were a hot and heavy item.
Kate was always fully tanned, manied, pedied, blown out, keratined, and dressed to impress with her brand new White House/Black Market wardrobe.
In fact, that's when Jamie and Ashley were stuck watching the kids when Kate and Steve would either be squirrel away in their RV, or be who knows where for hours and hours.
I really got the feeling that Kate and Steve where playing "let's film a reality tv show" by day, and having their alone time at night.
In Las Vegas, too.

And obviously, any person who testifies about TFW's behavior with the kids is never there when TFW is ALONE with the kids. So their claims about what they've seen don't seem like they'd carry a lot of weight.

Think of domestic violence situations. "Gosh, Your Honor, I've had dinner at the Smiths' house a hundred times, and Bob never once hauled off and punched Mary! Clearly she's lying!" As the old song goes, "No one knows what goes on behind closed doors."

Right, exactly. Nobody's testimony about good things is all that much relevant. Only if they've seen something negative would I care one iota about their testimony. If I were the kids' attorney, I would absolutely concede there are many, many times Kate is totally appropriate and kind to her children. That doesn't have anything to do with all the bad times, though.

That's like saying because abuse is going on, a parent can't ever be nice. Both sides of the coin are obvious fallacies.

I agree. The scary thing is that I think Kate parents by any means necessary and at whatever cost. If she feels that her reasons for abusing or neglecting them are good reasons, she has no introspection or ability to understand how other people feel, and won't concede she's culpable.
Just this week on Dr. Oz, she admits she knows she made mistakes, but immediately lets herself off the hook because she felt she was doing the right thing.
It's scary.
As is her saying she has to be mother and father to her children. That's a person who has made the decision that Jon is dead to her.

Correct. It will take some savvy attorneys and judges and excellent therapists to break through the parental alienation going on though. It's so obvious at this point though I'd be shocked if most competent legal and mental health professionals don't see it within seconds.

FlimsyFlamsy said...

Tucker's Mom (#85), you know, I don't even believe that TFW really thinks she's made any mistakes at all. In true narc fashion, she says what she thinks she's supposed to say to get what she wants. If she had any genuine self awareness, there's no way she could continue her abhorrent behavior. But sitting there demurely with Dr. Oz, it seemed like the right thing to say -- sure, I've made mistakes, but I was doing my best. Well, lady, in what universe is throwing your kid into his crib by the HAIR doing your best? And now throwing him out of his HOME?

I'm not sure about this. Admin? In order to be arrested and face jail time, does it not have to be proven that the person knows the statement was a lie and there was intent to lie? Isn't there a defense for a perjury conviction that is rather broad and complicated? Not remembering facts correctly, or misinterpreting a situation is not perjury, even though what the person swore to under oath appears to be a lie.

I have seen those Tweets and they are not only nasty, but crude. I wonder if such people speak that way in everyday life, or only on Twitter where they can hide behind Twitter names.

Looking back, Kate's been deceptive from the get-go in this post-marriage apocalypse. During the family-split episode, she played such the pitiable wife and mother. Crying on the sofa, sniffling about how having multiples does a marriage in, and talking a good game about the decision "to separate".
I bet dollars to donuts she knew about and planned for filing the divorce papers right before that episode aired. Then, after the last scene was shown, Kate had TLC air the message about her having to file for divorce, for the sake of her children, alluding to some clear and present danger that Jon presented.
And Jon could do absolutely nothing as that image lingered on the screens of 10 million viewers.
It was a brilliant coup d'état, and Kate has occupied the high ground ever since.

The only one(s) she talks to are Mady and Cara, and I doubt Cara talks to her much. Unless she's calling Kate everyday and Kate is handing her phone around to the kids, because now we know that the tups don't have phones and the twins do. So that comment of hers was total BS.

I'm sorry but I think the accusations going on about the game, bed and drinking is a bit of a stretch for something to say. I see nothing wrong with friends getting together, for WHATEVER REASON, this close to christmas for fun and games. Yes, Kate is a monster for doing what she did to C and the proper channels have been followed to take care of it. I for one would be more upset if for the six months the whole family wallowed in self pity. Can you imagine what people would dissect and say then? "Oh she did it for attention. Oh how awful to make the kids suffer like that." I mean..there is PLENTY of things bad she does that can be told without exaggeration or embellishment. Besides, it gives her a justifiable claim about the comments said about her.

Sorry if I have stepped on any toes, I'm just really tired of reading things so dissected you need a microscope to see it. Yes I don't have to read here or I can scroll past but I shouldn't have to. I enjoy reading here for the most part.

This isn't personal to any one person, I like ya all. Please...just try not to get tooo crazy or stretch so high and I'll enjoy reading your opinions. I know it's hard when we're talking about Kate, she gives us so much. That's why we will never not have a subject to talk about.

Did anyone notice if she's still in the credits?

She has a big list of people that she has sacrificed over the years. Friends, associates, family, animals, husband and now son.

If I were Jon's lawyer, I wouldn't necessarily want to interview Jamie or Deanna. It's clear where their loyalties are. I would want the agency workers: maids, agency nannies, pool boy, laundry, etc. These are the people Kate probably ignores. They are "lesser" and she may think they are deaf mutes. Then I would want either unedited footage or testimony from camera daddies. I suspect she behaves however she wants in front of those invisible workers.

I suspect Jon's attorney has been building a case for years. Although there has been frustration expressed by me and others here, the tipping point was Collin taken away and the subsequent investigation by CPS. I believe this may result in her losing primary physical custody of Collin to Jon. He may not live in a big house, but he can provide a home for Collin and any other Gosselin child that no longer wants to film and live with Kate. She is desperate and it shows with those crazy accusations. I think the judge has had enough, thus the psych evaluations for everyone.

Total speculation about a court date. Just seems "coincidental" Andrea and her bestie, Jamie, are visiting at the same time. We just think maybe they are in town for moral support at the very least, if there is a court date or some ruling about Collin seeing Jon. The whole helping to bake scenario reeks of typical Kate making up a story of how loyal her friends are (and Andrea was an employee, never a friend). We've been wondering how come Deanna was not included in this holiday get together too. How odd. I thought she was like an "aunt" to those kids. How terrible the real relatives are not included in holiday baking.

Hope you're feeling better, kidney stones are no picnic. No details about the court proceedings or date(s) have been released by anyone. I think we're just inferring that since the judge apparently ordered the psych evaluations some time around Thanksgiving, getting it done before Xmas would be a priority. Especially if it might make a difference to Collin's situation. But we don't know one way or the other. With both Jamie and Andrea visiting Kate recently (that is, if Andrea ever really left her employ), it was only an assumption that they are there to prop her up through this "ordeal."

FlimsyFlamsy (116),

It's hard to predict how the holidays will effect ratings. Many people are out of school/work, and can stay up and watch. Kate was right when she said that a lot of her audience was young people who couldn't stay up so late. But people are busy with the holidays, too. It's a tough call. But if ratings don't rally this week and next, then they are not going to at all. Think about the twins' birthday. Even the fans do not like watching them, and this episode is centered around them. I think that episode is going to be the low point of the season. And the family game night just sounds boring. They can package it as a game, but it's still just another looking back episode. As always, I won't watch no matter what they do. I hope others won't, either.

I do, too, and think 'what's to lose?'. I mean, really. Collin has not thrived with Kate. He's been thrown out of school once, expelled for good and now, his situation is so dire, that he's been taken out of his home.
Since that boy was 5 or 6 years of age, it's been a downward trajectory with Kate.
Based on evidence, Collin probably should not be placed back with Kate in that home.
Based on evidence, half of the children are suffering from severe dysfunction.

Her couch interview was like that in the episode I watched. She seems no less than piiisssed at the world.

I get the East coast feed for may cable channels so TFW will be running opposite Tony Bennet's 90th b'day celebration. Hmmmmm, I don't think I'll be watching TFW take yet another vacation.

#KatePlus8 still the best reality TV show alive. @Kateplusmy8 lovable, matter of fact comes out brilliantly. Is it too late to adopt me?

How old is this person?

They must be super young and have never seen the older epis..Or they're joking.

The psych evals were ordered by the judge back in September, not in Nov.

I remember that Jon made the comment some time ago that she needs an evaluation, but where was it reported that in September a judge ordered one? Do you have the link? Did it come from Jon?

Good catch! Yes, 3 boys in red shirts notice the cameras and look like they want to go and check it out. But, Rat Claws galumps in front of them, hands out, like 'STOP!!!'.
Good to see TLC not scrub what it's like to be those kids. Always getting gawked at, with strangers coming up to them. Whether they are recognized or not, the whole hullaballoo with the crew, cameras and booms at like honey to bees.
It's amazing how much they're able to hide this.

Sad but true said...

I love how TLC hands out clips to all and sundry and doesn't bother to post it on K8's own FB page. Nothing says "I don't care anymore" than sheer neglect.

NJGal51 said...

Good eye ajw, I didn't notice Steve the first time around. Maybe it was because he was wearing purple instead of blue. I don't think the kids in the background were running toward the Gosselin kids though. I think they were going about their business and Steve was keeping them from walking into the shot. God forbid kids that actually paid to go to space camp should be able to enjoy themselves.

I think that one is just very odd. He seems to be obsessed with a myriad of celebs. Most of these young fellows have Mommy issues and prefer older women. All very strange.

I'm watching People's documentary on the JonBenet murder, and sure enough, there's the sweetheart, Coyne, in all her glory! Why isn't she helping Kate bake cinnamon rolls?

TLC stinks said...

I read an article, dated Sept. 2016, but I cannot find it now that said psych evals were ordered. The news about the psych evals did come out in Nov. in the tabloids so maybe I made a mistake on the date but Jon has wanted the judge to order a psych eval done on Kate since Feb. 2014 and the judge apparently refused to do it. Just because the tabloids came out with the story the end of Nov. does not necessarily mean there have not been ongoing legal proceedings since Collin left. The important thing here is that the judge is now onboard with the psych evals for the entire family which tells me Jon has a case for custody from Kate. Totally coincides with TLC delaying the show's airing and Collin's disappearance.

I will add, if TLC is not filming during the kids' Xmas break, she's been terminated.

Sad but true said...

I think you read the same one as me, People dtd 9/23/16, but the content of the article was from 2010. I just skimmed over it so didn't even notice until KIAT here pointed it out. I don't know what People is doing, saying "updated" and then using 6-year-old content. That publication is now little better than the Enquirer.

And I agree, I think if there's no filming over the long winter break, they're done.

TLC stinks said...

I cannot imagine Kate enjoyed and was excited about Space Camp. It's for KIDS and KIDS who are interested in space. I agree with the poster who said the Space Camp trip may have coincided with the AL beach vacay. Kate really, really likes those beach vacays. Maybe the beach was pay back to her enduring Space Camp.

TLC stinks said...

Intro on her Instagram:

Kate Gosselin Mom of 8 human kids, 3 furry kids & 1 feather kid. Watch Kate Plus 8 on TLC to see the chaotic fun that is our lives! kateplusmy8.com

TLC stinks said...

Watched the clip. LOL. They had to keep saying how much they have ALWAYS wanted to go to Space Camp and how EXCITED they were. I sure did not detect any excitement from any of them. And Kate...she cannot speak proper English..."rocket things". Really?

LOL. When Mady, on the couch, said how excited she was, she turned to Cara expecting Cara to agree. You can tell they edited in Cara saying how excited she was because I bet when Mady turned to her, she either was silent or said something snarky. Love that Cara. And Mady saying she loves space. Has she ever mentioned any interest? Ever?

Turtle (AKA Amy2) said...

Didn't one of the boys from LPBW also go to Space Camp?

Sad but true said...

Poor Schmoopy. Jill Duggar just announced baby #2, and it looks like they're likely to get another girl (Joy) married off, too. So there'll no doubt be an avalanche of Duggar episodes in 2017, obviating any need for K8 Plus 8 Minus 1 Plus Two Dogs.

What's wrong with the Duggar men? No willing women for them? Hey, maybe they can find a Duggar to marry K8! Now there's a crossover concept.

Layla said...

Cara is the one who said she wants to go somewhere far away for college. I think she's counting the days til she can make her escape.

Sherri said...

I have to preface this by saying that I haven't reread any of the articles so I apologize if I should have answered this question myself by perusing them.

Was this addressed in one of the tabloid articles? (I'm plagued by a flare up of my CRS syndrome. ;-) TIA

Tucker's Mom said...

Cara's editing was very obvious. While interviewing with Mady, Cara is silent and passive aggressively showing her disdain and feigned boredom by looking at her nails and picking at lint.
Then she's clearly looking in a different direction, saying she really wanted to go. Wanna bet that was filmed extemporaneously while just chatting with the producer?

Anonymous said...

In the People clip she said she heard about the Space Camp years and years ago and she has always wanted to take the kids there. Every time she mentioned it to them they were all excited and into it. Then why didn't she take them? Could it be because she was waiting for TLC to cover the expense? Never mind, I've answered my own questions.

Is there anyplace they've gone where she doesn't say, Oh I've ALWAYS wanted to take the kids there? You could just repeat the couch segments from one vacay to the next, if only she'd stop changing her hair color.

Ha, same old same old. The only other things that change are her level of skin tanning and how much she can move the muscles of her face.
What is changing is how much the kids are into these filming shenanigans.

FlimsyFlamsy said...

bm (#179), so if what TFW said is true, then
C always wanted to go to Space Camp. And now his 7 siblings are going without him. And TFW will be shrieking and squealing and flapping and not having the slightest regret that her child is missing out. Not because he's home with strep throat, or a broken arm. Because she sent him away.

Heck, TFW said herself that tonight's show is one of the most hilarious episodes ever. So clearly C's absence isn't effecting her chaotic fun. Sigh.

Anonymous said...

As the name suggests it's a Space "Camp". If the kids were so into the idea why didn't she just allow all eight to go, without her? I'm sure they would have loved the idea of spending time away from her - a real break. Instead of a real "camping" experience, seven of the eight will be followed around by cameras for probably a few hours while Collin, who would have loved the experience, is forgotten about. But hey, who cares - the show must go on, there are sheeple waiting to be entertained.

And how long and greasy her hair gets, as well as the deflated and then pumped-up bosom. They could build exciting episodes around that. How low can they go? How big can they get until they explode?

On this episode of Kate Plus Eight..."Riddle of the Rising Girls Resolved."

Anonymous said...

Just a thought, I wonder if her lack of expression/intonation in her description of their "excitement" about Space Camp indicates she has already been told by TLC that she is on the chopping block. I've forgotten the sequence of events; is this the last segment to have been filmed? She gives the appearance of just having been told some very unpleasant news.
