The Gosselin’s marriage dissolves on TV. When the couple weaponize their fame in a messy divorce, they fracture the image of the perfect American family. Watch the full episode here on Vice.
Clack (#200), reality TV fame is still a relatively new phenomenom. And those who reach some level of success and acclaim -- with no particular skill set -- make it look awfully appealing. But sad stories like the Gosselin kids and now this young man who took his own life are surely cautionary tales for parents ready to sell their children's privacy to the highest bidder.
Haven't watched "Quiet On The Set" yet. Not sure I can stomach it. And these horror stories came from professional sets where a parent expects tutors and other adult supervision. I think these confessions will multiply as more people find the courage to share their stories. I wonder if Paul Petersen has weighed in.
I think that is correct, more and more will come out. What sickened me was Joanna Kerns and Allen thick wrote to the court to support the pedo! He only got 16 months. It’s disgusting!
Back to sister wives, how are these people legally getting multiple spouses? And filming it???? And on a shallow note, the husband looks like a grease ball from a bad 80s movie, how did he get more than one wife? Ha ha
Kody’s not in violation of any laws. He can call them wives but they’re really just girlfriends or open marriage affairs to the rest of us. He claims he was under investigation for polgomy in Utah but word is that was nonsense and just him making drama for the show.
Clack (#2), apparently that guy was a textbook abuser. His behavior with everyone else in his orbit was above reproach. So when the accuser speaks up, he or she is the one people doubt, not the accused. Sickening.

The Jerry Sandusky approach. Become a beloved local celebrity and philanthropist. Touch thousands of lives. If the shit ever hits the fan, everyone will say, well, that couldn't possibly be.
The exploitation of these kids reminds me of the time Kate pulled down Collin's pants, sat him on the potty, and walked out, closing the door behind her and leaving him alone in a room with a man with a camera. What mother could ever justify doing such a thing? When money and fame come into the picture, too many parents forget the basic instinct to protect their children. And she still think she didn't do anything wrong. Unforgivable!
Its been a while here, but I wanted to see what was new with the Gosselins since its the 6's birthday. I wasn't aware that last year Alexis came out as gay. She did claim that Kate was supportive which was nice of her. Also I feel like I might get flak for this but Mady also claims to be part of the LGBT despite having a boyfriend. I don't know about anyone else but I can't trust her claim because I feel like Mady would claim to be a part of the LGBT because she's one of those spicy straights who thinks being a part of the community makes her one of the "cool kids" when that was never the point of the entire movement.
@Admin Please dont accept the anonymous comment. That was my bad.
@Gigi Sadly I cant find the Tiktok but this article mentions what Mady and Alexis said last year. https://www.theashleysrealityroundup.com/2023/04/12/two-gosselin-daughters-mady-alexis-reveal-theyre-lgbtq-their-mom-kate-was-reportedly-supportive/
I don't remember seeing that article before but it makes me sad that Mady doesn't appreciate the concerns people had for how much excessive time she spent on camera as a child, I'm not just talking about the interwebs, I'm talking about her own aunt and uncle and legislatures and activists like Paul.
She can't bring herself to say hey thank you so much for your concern, we're all doing fine. (Which, we don't know if they're fine they are very young yet, and secondly, even if everyone is doing "fine and dandy", doesn't meant the risk didn't exist to them and any other kid going through something similar.) I worry comments like that from Mady will be taken as free license to continue to exploit other children since, it's fine.
Assuming the kids' comments are accurate if there's one thing Kate has done right is accept the kids from who they are. She's come a long way from her far rightly bible thumping roots. The LAST thing these kids need is to feel not accepted for who they are in their own family.

You misspelled “Donald Trump”. I can’t wait for you to crop my comment and then add your no doubt idiotic response that will be perfectly valid in the view of your “followers”. I also await the sparse but not surprising response from those “loyal sycophants” who will chastise me for daring to speak my mind while pointing out your blatant hypocrisy. You should get busy. Those pithy responses aren’t going to type themselves!

You want so badly for him to be something he never was. First you tried to years to tie him to Jeffrey Epstein, but every time it panned out that he wanted nothing to do with that sick man. And on and on grasping at straws. This trial is embarrassing for you. The public has completely lost interest. The stories get bumped down to the bottom of all the news sites because nobody clicks.
Want to see your comment published? Follow a few simple rules:
1. Do not use Anonymous. Pick a name (click Name/URL to type in a name) and stick to the same name. 2. Anonymous insider stories should be emailed to us directly (in confidence). They will not be posted here unless we can verify the validity, such as with photos. This is not to discourage legitimate insiders from speaking out, but to guard against all the fake stories out there. 3. No insulting other posters or picking fights, refusing to let things go and move on. Stop with the snotty comments--they will be rejected. Treat people here like how you would talk to the person you most respect in your life, it's just pleasant that way. 4. No trash talking other blogs/bloggers here.

Ohhh thank you for clarifying that. Makes sense now.

I just remembered the sextuplets had a birthday
yesterday: they turned 20! I'm not on any social
media -- did either parent comment about it?

Jamez- where did you read that about Alexis?
Also Kate posted a pic of the four tups for their 20th birthday .

Kate made a birthday post. http://www.realitytvkids.com/2023/07/jon-kate-plus-8-family-circus-on-vice-tv.html?commentPage=2
FlimsyFlamsy - Yes, Kate put up a photo and a little blurb of the 4 on her Instagram. Joel looks so much like Jon!
