Just a few seasons ago, Jon and Kate Gosselin were the picture perfect American family focused on raising their 8 precious children. Over the past few months, the focus has quickly changed and life as a family of 10 may be coming to an end for the Gosselins.
In an exclusive interview with PEOPLE, Kate truly opens up for the first time about her struggles with tabloid rumors and the possibility of life without Jon:
"I don't know that we're in the same place anymore, that we want the same thing. I've been struggling with the question of 'Who is this person?' for a while. I remember where I was the first time I heard her name. It's one of those things where you can try to make it go away, but there's blaring, red flashing lights."
The woman kate is talking about is Deanna Hummel, the 23-year-old university student in the center of this love triangle and accused of having an affair with Jon.
But will the allegations of infedelity be enough to tear this once-inseparable couple apart? It appears so.
"You can't imagine yourself in a certain position when all this first happens, but you can do it over some months," she says.
"It's a lot like when I was first pregnant with the babies, and it was pure shock and denial. But over time I imagined six cribs in my house, and six car seats. When your mind is ready to go there, you can accept any number of scenarios."
And to finish off this shocking interview, Kate reveals a vague statement that hints at the possibility of a divorce:
"I will never give up hope that every member of our family can be absolutely happy again."
Such a tragedy. We hope Jon and Kate find a way to make this horrible situation as easy as possible for their children. And for God's sake, lay off the interviews and the press. Instead of dishing the dirt to PEOPLE, Kate should be at home working on putting her family back together.
Do you think Jon and Kate are destined for divorce?
