TLC’s reality hit TV show “Jon and Kate Plus 8” has been an unbelievable success for the network and the parents of America’s favorite reality TV family. But has the success of the show compromised the relationship of parents Jon and Kate Gosselin? It appears so.
Speaking out against allegations of infidelity, Jon released this statement to the media and fans of the show:
"Like most people, I have male and female friends and I'm not going to end my friendships just because I'm on TV.
“However, being out with them late at night showed poor judgment on my part. What makes me sick is that my careless behavior has put my family in this uncomfortable position. My family is the most important thing in my life and it kills me that these allegations have hurt them."
And while rumors of Jon cheating continue to fuel media speculation, the college girls who met Jon on the night he supposedly cheated insist he was a complete gentleman. In fact, they even claim that Jon talked more about his wife Kate than anything or anyone else.
"He was very well-behaved, a gentleman," Alex-Rae Campbell, a female college student who was at the same party as Jon told PEOPLE. "He talked more about his wife than his kids.”
So where do Jon and Kate Gosselin stand in their marriage? Like most couples, they are working through their problems and trying to find a compromise that works for both of them. But Jon’s not afraid to admit that there may be some jealousy involved in regards to the strain on their relationship: “Kate's career is taking off and I'm a bit lost," he admitted. "This struggle has definitely put some tension in our marriage."
Hopefully (especially for the sake of their children) they can work things out. Do you think Jon and Kate should stay together or go their separate ways?
