Kate and Jon Gosselin, the stars of the popular TLC show Jon & Kate Plus Eight, have been together for 10 years, and it hasn’t been smooth sailing all the way. Their relationship developed a crack that has been rapidly widening through this year.
In February, while away to Huntington, Pa., to visit his mother who had undergone an operation, Jon was noticed to spend his time with young women. At that time the Gosselins managed to play down the threat to their marriage, but in May the problems resurfaced. Photos went round showing Deanna Hummel, Jon’s 23-year-old friend, at the wheel of his car after a late night at the bar.
At the fifth season of the show on May 25 the couple owned up to going through a difficult phase in their relationship. Kate was tearful over it, saying: “Parents of multiples have triple the divorce rate. I was thinking we were going to beat that. I don’t know if I can say that anymore.”
On his part Jon confessed to the People that he wasn’t seeing eye-to-eye with Kate on the high-profile life they are leading and would like to take a break from it, while she is happy to remain involved.
So it seems that the end is drawing near. Following a long period of trying to smooth things over, the star couple filed documents for a divorce procedure in Pennsylvania on Monday. The next episode of Jon & Kate Plus Eight is going to present the news to the viewers, according to the TLC promotional adverts.
