Reality TV mom Kate Gosselin is shouldering all the blame for her husband Jon’s bad behavior in a revealing interview during the TLC special Kate: Her Story.
This is typical of women in abusive relationships — be it verbal, mental abuse or physical abuse, the result is always the same: the woman accepts all the blame for the dysfunction in the relationship.
“I was very hard on him and I would never deny that,” said Kate in the special that aired last night.
“I was wrong to treat him that way,” she added. “Was it good, healthy and wonderful? No. Am I proud of those moments that were captured? No.”
I still wake up every day, and I think the phone will ring,” she whined, her voice cracking, “and it’ll be the old Jon.”
How pathetic. Where’s the part where she talks about how badly he treated her and how he violated their marriage vows?
Why does the woman always bend under the pressure and takes these dogs back? Did she not see Jon on Larry King two weeks ago?
She really needs therapy.
But why air it out whatever you feel?
Sit down w/ a counseler and stop letting the ‘media’ be your friend…cough
I think their both media whores and need serious therapy. Money has torn this family apart and these two fools better get it together for their children.
Yeah they are both looking to the camera for whatever therapy they are in need of. Both of them was BUSTED before they got married. Once they had all the kids and got some money, Lipo, Hair plugs and all that flipped them upside down.
Shaniqua from my neighborhood has 8 kids too and they didn’t give her a damn show!! Kate and Octomom need to fall back and raise their kids. Single moms have been doing it for years but you won’t see a camera following us around. Puhleease!!
She was a BISH a HARD BISH at that, not to dismiss his actions for cheating on his wife, heck I wouldve left her crazy azz a loooooong time ago!

I think givin the opportuity a lot of people will/want to become media whores. Its the “new” thing.
When you’re marrying for ratings for a show or living in a rented house… remember : FAME KILLS
on topic – Sandra if you’ve ever watched the show then you’d know that what she is saying is the truth. That’s why when they initially broke up most people were with Jon. Kate treated him like the 9th child. I don’t understand how he took it for so long myself. Now granted now he has far exceeded her in being the bigger ass of the Gosslings but she’s speaking the truth about how she did him on the show.
Kate alienated her husband through her behavior… she’s a big part of the reason she’s single today. No healthy man or woman would stay forever with someone who constantly belittles & verbally abuses them and continuously disrespects them, much less in front of others & complete strangers.
ANYTHING TO SAY YOU HAVE A HUSBAND-BY ANY MEANS NECESSARY IRREGARDLESS OF YOUR HEALTH, SELF-RESPECT, YOUR CHILDREN
HEAVEN FORBID IF YOU BECOME GASP….OH MY…… A SINGLE MOM
OH NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Co-sign @ 5, 10, and 11! She emasculated him..constantly.

Yep. She should take some of the blame. She treated him like crap and now he has been given a little wiggle room and he went way too far. Who is married for 10 yrs. has 8 kids and leaves the family for a 22 yr. old? He should want to be by himself just for the peace and quiet. They are both equally to blame. Most ppl who hit the lotto wish they would have tore the ticket up before turning it in, I don’t think in Kate & Jon’s case that they regret the show because as quiet as we thought Jon was it was only in the presence of Kate. These two are media whores and I along with others do wish they would fight fairly. Who goes on tv for every little disagreement you have while in the process of a divorce?
I’VE ONLY SEEN SCENES FROM THE SHOW ON GOOD MORNING AMERICA-SO I REALLY DON’T KNOW HOW SHE TREATED HIM BUT IF THAT’S TRUE SHE SHOULD HAVE EXPECTED THIS
NEVER SAW THE REASON TO WATCH A SHOW OF TWO ABLED BODIED ADULTS GET PAID TO TAKE CARE OF THEIR OWN DAMN CHILDREN WITH UNLIMITED RESOURCES
WOW-WHAT’S GOING TO HAPPEN????? WHAT STRUGGLES WOULD THEY HAVE TO OVERCOME-CAMERAS, PAPARAZZI, DUH
I agree with the whole she emasculated him statements. It was so hard to watch so I can only imagine what it was like to live it. Emotional abuse changes a person, be it for the better or worse.
She def was a BISH to him and he didn’t cheat on her they were already separated SHE filed for divorce and he moved out and on
They both need to get it together for the sake of their kids they are BOTH at fault n this mess
Sandra stop trying to make all women the victim!
Chil, Kate is trying to get back in on Jon’s good side.. and be rightback in front of the cameras. That what some woman do, take the blame and stupid men be right back wrapped around you little finger..
bout time she recognized she was a byyyeotch to him! she always wore the ballz in the house. stop lettin him feel like a skirt! now she sittin around lonely wit 8 kids hangin off her arm wit that wack azz asymetrical haircut lookin crazy!
Kate wants them to kiss n make up so the show can carry on she misses that $$$$ lol
I haven’t seen this “new Jon” on an interviews really, but she was pretty hard on him. A lot of episodes she would just talk talk talk and he would be mute…she would criticize him on air. Not to say that his behavior after the fact is ok…but I get what she’s saying.
*any

That’s it right there. As much as she did not like the camera crew she had free babysitters. She is now left alone with eight kids to take care of. Her kids did not have any friends. Can you imagine each kid taking a friend to the zoo or the park with them? The crew was the kids friends. The only family members they had on the show they got rid of. Where are Kate’s friends, she was a nurse she had to of had friends or patients that became her friend(s).
Yeah Sandra I was gonna say the same thing she was way too hard on him and as a female when you don’t let your man be a man problems will occur now she can see her responsiblity in the marriage failing nothing wrong with admitting your mistakes…it’s called growth…
Sounds to me like she may be experiencing a moment of clarity. Seeing a woman willing to ALSO admit she’s a part of a relationship problem is HUGE!!!
Most women are keyed and encouraged by other women to always deny any responsibility. Contrary to what Sandra has written the converse is more often than not true.
Men get the majority of the blame without the woman ever accepting responsibility for her own actions/behavior/attitudes that may have contributed to whatever is going on.
It’s very refreshing to see a woman step up…..Eventhough hers and his apologies and whatnot probably have more to do with TV and the cancellation of their show. Hell, I’d be patching stuff up too seeing those checks stop coming in…
That’s it right there. As much as she did not like the camera crew she had free babysitters. She is now left alone with eight kids to take care of

Did the show get cancelled?
I cannot be held responsible for a competent adult’s actions. Why would she say something like that? She’s stupid, I’d continue to let the world look at him like the a-ss he is.

Jon kicked the crew out and sent them packing. There is talk that there will be a show called Kat + 8.
Dang anna, that was foolish. How long does he think what he’s got in the bank now is gonna last? his fifteen are just about up whats he gonna do for income? Go back to work as a computer analyst?
sandra, you’ve obviously never watched the show….
i agree peachizz, she’s only doing this to keep the show going. she first tried to make him out to be the sole bad guy. she succeeded but it didn’t make him want to do the show again.
i’m tired of this bish on tv talking bad about john on every show SHE gets paid for. i guess that’s worn out and the offers have dried up so now she has to talk about something else to get paid.
I think it was some co-dependent f*ckery on their parts. Jon always sat back in the cut and let Kate work it, but when all that fame and drama started hitting, Kate got frustrated because she couldn’t handle it all alone. Then came Kate’s resentment. That’s why she treated him like a kid.
Jon wanted to be treated like an adult without having to act like one. That’s why it was so easy for him to act out with a 22 year old and be all in the streets and on camera.
Now the 22 year old is putting stops b/c she’s more grown than he is and he’s trying to clean up his act b/c he’s losing out on the fame and $$$.
They are both to blame, but I think that Jon was worse.
