Jon picks up kids from school

http://www.infdaily.com/2010/09/jon-gosselin-picks-up-the-kids-from-the-bus.html

Jon picked up the kids from school yesterday, and it's great to see Mady is still playing the violin. Music can be a great outlet for kids going through rough times such as a divorce.

Meanwhile Kate has been MIA for several days, laying very low amid reports Jon won't let the kids film anymore and is taking her back to court for custody. While there's speculation she could be filming the Celebrity Apprentice, a local reported she was seen at Target.

Celeb Apprentice is something I would like to see. the kids are with Jon not nannies so I don't care if she's not home, Trump would show no mercy, the other celebs would throw her under the bus faster than Kate can trick a fertility doctor, and I would love to recap it.

Betsy said...

I don't think she would be filming The Apprentice, she is no doubt doing her show that TLC tossed her like a bone to a dog. She is losing her appeal very quickly and I for one won't watch her on television because I can't stand her annoying voice and screeching, lets not forget the lying.

I don't watch Celebrity Apprentice, is it the normal course of events for the cast of participants to be kept secret? I remember some specualtaion that Tiger Wood's mistress was going to be on the next one. I guess I am just confused as to when an anouncement would be made if Kate was going to appear on that show.

gotyournumberKate said...

I'm afraid it would be another DWTS though, Trump would keep her on just for the ratings. Kate's ruthless enough to possibly win Celebrity Apprentice. As long as she keeps the cameras out of the kids faces I don't give a flying eff what she does. If she is on CA I know I won't be watching it.

MickeyMcKean said...

I don't watch Celebrity Apprentice BUT I do believe I heard a blurb where Donald said this season the contestants are all business people who due to the economy are currently unemployed.

If this is correct, Kate does not meet Donald's guidelines.

Personally I really don't care where Kate is, and I guarantee you I'm not going to waste my time in looking for her either ;)

In fact with Steve and Gina out of the country and with Kate + 8 apparently not filming since school started, I kinda hope Kate is holed up in a sleazy 8 motel room somewhere having a pity party.

Actually IF Kate knows the show is no more and Twist of Kate is a no go too, IMHO anywhere but near the kids would be best right now.

I read on preesi's site that Kate messed up The Donalds hair when she met him. I doubt he likes her too much. Who would do that? Oh yeah, we're talking about KG.

She loves the cameras, she is probably banging on every Director and Producers door begging for a gig. Just a thought!

Kate could have filmed celebrity apprentice and been "fired: the first week and is now back at Target looking for Chris who has already lost interest. lol

Mickey. Apprentice "reg folks" has already been done and is now airing. Wouldn't be suprised if they are now working on and fiming Celebrity Apprentice for the spring. Timing seems right.

Mickey, the Apprent. you are referring to starts tomorrow nite. I don't know how far in advance they film it, but I'd think it is either almost finished filming or close to it. Wonder when they would start the next one, which I believe is the one that is going to be celebs again.

======================
If she's not home, looks like the kids are still sleeping there weeknights with the nannies. Jon had to park on the grass outside the mansion to get the van so he could pickup his kids.

I can't imagine they sleep at Jon's on school nights. Can you imagine getting 8 kids ready for school in a 1 bedroom apartment? He needs a house or large apartment.

I think you can raise happy, healthy, wonderful kids whether you live in a mansion, a one-bedroom apartment, or a shelter. I think you make do with whatever your circumstances are and I think kids can adjust to anything. I don't see kids moping around at Jon's place because he has a 1-bedroom apartment, they almost always look thrilled. Kate is the only one trying to get us to believe they don't want to see him and don't like his place. Just remember who the kids were screaming for when they showed up at the mansion. That's right, Daddy.

This mansion has done nothing to make these kids happier. There is simply no connection between their happiness and the mansion.

Actually I picture rounding up for school in time eight kids in a huge house who are running all over the place as pretty darn hard, especially for some 22 year old nanny.

Why Jon cannot stay overnight there when Kate isn't even home is beyond me. If he were a danger to his children the judge would have ordered his visits to be monitored.

SG said...

Admin,

Could you please clarify something "for the record"?

The pic you posted on the "arcade" thread of the teen fans, was that pic in any way being presented, by you or Ellen, as a picture actually taken at the arcade when the Gosselin children were mobbed by fans?

I have been trying to set this straight. I know it is a "stock photo" and I did not take it as an actual pic of proof of that eye witness account or Ellen's account of what happened.

Some Kate fans are insisting that Ellen posted that very pic on her Twitter or Facebook trying to pass it off as a pic she took to prove the kids were mobbed by fans.

Some think they've "discovered" that it's just a stock photo and that Ellen is misrepresenting it deliberately.

I never took it that way. Could you please clear this up? Ellen is taking a beating over this "fabrication."

MickeyMcKean said...

Like I said above, I don't watch CA BUT are you guys sure it is taped months in advance?

The guy who won this last season, Brett Michaels, was hospitalized with life threatening issues. It was mentioned when he was in the hospital they did not know how it would impact his time on CA. If I am not mistaken, Brett gets out of hospital and it is covered on ET etc. and then he wins CA shortly thereafter ... so it seems to me that it is filmed more or less in "real time" versus months in advance.

Now if I'm wrong and it is filmed months in advance, I really hope Kate is not going to be on next CA shown next spring. See by the end of this year I want to say, "Kate WHO??".

Schmecky I posted this on the other thread as I thought you posted it there:

What? How dumb can people be and why are people so obsessed with me and this blog? LOL.

It's just a stock photo. I found it myself. I often post stock photos. I believe it's a photo from a Spice Girls concert. Ellen had absolutely nothing to do with the photo, the only contact I ever had with Ellen about the incident was her emailing me saying she was upset the incident had become such a huge deal on the internet as she felt it was a private matter that was between her, Jon, the kids and the wacko fans harassing them.

I didn't think people were so dumb that I needed to insult people's intelligence by posting under the obvious stock photo "STOCK PHOTO NOT REALLY KATE FANS"

Realitytvkids.com ~ Administrator said...

By the way Ellen said she deeply regretted ever saying anything about it on facebook because it caused it to get a ton of outside attention. She was venting and wasn't thinking.

Nonetheless we would have posted about it anyway because it was reported here and independent witness saw it, coorborating to a T exactly Ellen's account of it.

Realitytvkids.com ~ Administrator said...

Yes apprentice is taped months in advance. Except on that last season the last episode was taped much closer to the final airdate of the episode.

In other words, if I recall they filmed episodes one through 12 or whatever early. Then for the very final episode, episode 13, was filmed right before it actually aired. Between episode 12 and the long wait until 13, Brett had his health problems.

Realitytvkids.com ~ Administrator said...

Schmecky just to be crystal clear, the stock photo is a photo I FOUND and Ellen did not find the photo, did not post the photo, and had nothing to do with it. In fact, Ellen actually wanted me to take the post down as the incident had become so public. Hard to believe, but she is actually trying to keep things private for these kids. Girl is fighting an uphill battle. Even though I respect her, I decided that that particular post needed to stay.

Oh yeah, well the Kate fans are claiming that "independant witness" was Ellen in disguise.

Uh, no comment. ;)

Oh, and the Kate fans are also insisting that Ellen posts here at a Kate Hate Site. I saw ONE post by Ellen thanking people for their support.

SG said...

Admin,

Sorry, I did post it over there on that other thread but I also posted it here to make sure that the more recent readers see it. I think it was important that you set the record straight.

Realitytvkids.com ~ Administrator said...

LOL! These sheeple crack me up especially their twisted logic. Schmecky, how do they explain why Ellen post as an "independent witness" about the incident, then post as herself, then send me an email begging me to please take the post down? If she wants this story out there why is she asking me to take it down? We have a good relationship she had every reason to think I would honor that request. I decided after much thought that in the name of exposing what happened to these kids I would leave it up, even though I felt bad that was not what Ellen wanted. I imagine she was surprised by my decision. If Ellen wanted this story out there it makes absolutely no sense to ask me NOT to report on it and to please let it blow over. No sense at all.

Ellen has posted all of twice here. We hardly ever communicate, I've maybe exchanged a handful of emails with her some time back and up until this recent incident it had been awhile since we talked. She has very little interaction with this blog. Sure it would be great to have more contact from an "insider" but I get the sense she's trying to live a normal life away from this drama and I can't disagree with that and I leave her be.

Realitytvkids.com ~ Administrator said...

No problem. The record has been set straight, but it's not my problem if they don't want to believe it. Don't care.

Realitytvkids.com ~ Administrator said...

Why are the sheeple so defensive of Ellen's story anyway? If it's not true why do they care? Just let it fade away, don't worry about it.

The more defensive people are the more in the wrong they are. They know deep down that it is horrible for these children to be hounded by fans like this. They know deep down they couldn't resist doing the same thing to them if they met them. They know deep down that what happened to these poor kids at the arcade does not fit in the fantasy they want everyone to believe--namely, that fame and fortune has been nothing but roses for these eight victims.

Theory DEBUNKED but time, again and again, and that must make them pissed.

Melissa said...

I wonder if Mady was out of uniform in those pictures because she had a violin recital at school?
Maybe she's in the school band, or whatever musical group they might have. She might have had a performance today! That could be why Jon had the number on his shirt. He was an audience member.
If I'm right, it's too bad Kate couldn't make it . . .

JudyK said...

Always watch "The Apprentice" and "Celebrity Apprentice." They are two SEPARATE shows. Right now, "The Apprentice" is on--it began two (2) weeks ago. Tonight is the third episode. This show is about UNKNOWN well-educated young people who are either unemployed or doing things like selling cupcakes because they can't find work in this economy...NO celebrities. Trump stated earlier this year that filming for "Celebrity Apprentice" would begin in the fall. We won't see those episodes until after the first of next year. Also, someone mentioned Rachel Uchitel possibly being on Celebrity Apprentice, but I read that it was a no-go. No names are supposed to be released this early--it's just speculation at this point as to whom will appear on Celebrity Apprentice.

BerksPa said...

Celeb Apprentice is being filmed now. They start filming in fall Sept/Oct. Kate is probably there.
The Apprentice (a different show) is on right now and this season is a bunch of business people who have been hit hard by the recession.

I do think that if we see Kate in the next week we will know the whole "You've been fired" and that she wasn't on there very long.

Celebrity Apprentice takes about 1 - 1 1/2 months to film (for those that last the longest) and will start airing episodes in Feb or March of 2011.

Kate being on the show is a HUGE possibility and probably the reason the kids don't know where she is. Little kids love chatting up stuff as those who live in Jon's complex know already.

As long as those kids are off the TV, I don't care if Kate packs herself and her itty bitty bikini in an ice-block and sets up on a pole in Times Square for attention.

Hippie Chick said...

We would have heard if she was taping it. They always announce the line-up. Always. That's just my thought anyway.

Hippie Chick said...

They tape the finale to CA live BTW, if anyone is interested.

IDModo said...

Before people come to conclusions about Mady's footwear being an example of "dressing like Kate": I took tap dancing when I was about Mady's age. Those look like tap shoes to me. I'm wondering whether she is involved in dancing classes at school.

There are probably activities that the twins do at school that we don't know about.Nor should we..

Linda said...

Mickey McKean:

I'm still completely unconvinced Twist of Fate is an actual show.

Or--let me elaborate. They may have filmed a couple of episodes. They've been in the can for a while, I bet.

And they're airing what little they have. I THINK. (It's still not on TLC's viewing schedule, which only goes to October 13th.)

But the reason I don't think this is even going to air (or if it does, it will be just a couple of episodes and not even publicized well) is because of TLC's own site. And what Kate AND the People issue did NOT say.

When there's a new show about to debut, the network PRs the HELL out of it. They publicize it to death. Go to TLC's home page. I dare anyone to find a single mention of Twist of Kate anywhere. I even looked for a different title, thinking maybe they changed it. Even a completely different title. Nope. Only Kate Plus Eight and that's not even on their airing schedule anymore.

I did a search just for her name (only came up with Kate Plus Eight and the old Jon and Kate Plus Eight), I looked under new shows, did everything I knew to do. Nothing on TLC's site.

If Kate had a new show about to debut, she'd be mentioning it all over the place--on Regis and Kelly, in the People article, you name it. There would probably even be pap pictures of her "on set."

Nothing but silence.

And by the way, her "blog" hasn't been updated in 24 days now, which is a record (the previous record was 21 days). Normally I wouldn't even go to the TLC website, but I've become hopeful that she's gone for good (please God), and I find all these signs encouraging.

When a new show is about to debut, the main player doesn't disappear off the face of the earth. If anything, you see MORE of them and you hear more out of them, publicizing the show to everyone who will listen.

So I remain unconvinced. Besides, Twist of Kate was once supposed to air in mid-July. Then they said the end of the summer. Then "fall." Now I've heard everything from mid-October (not on their schedule, it's not) to November.

If you ask me, it's not going to happen.

Khater said...

No, no, no! You guys have it all wrong!
See the arrangement is that the house is the 'kids' house! it is where they are most comfortable so, the parents will switch off so the kids are not disrupted. Obviously they realize that being with a parent over 'not a nannies' is way better!
Er....oh...wait a minute. So, they DO stay weeks and weeks with a nanny? and Jon is not allowed in the house? but...that is not what was supposed to happen!! Kate told me so! she wouldn't lie.
This must be Jon's doing.

Michelle said...

Administrator said... I think you can raise happy, healthy, wonderful kids whether you live in a mansion, a one-bedroom apartment, or a shelter.
================
ITA Admin, but the fact is we've seen numerous occasions where Kate is visibly out of town, Jon tweets about what a great dinner he had with his kids and the kids are returned to the mansion to sleep. I find it appalling that they are sent home to sleep in a home with paid employees when they have an unemployed father nearby.

I hope this isn't Jon's preference and I hope he's doing everything in his power to change that arrangement. The kids shouldn't just be overnight with him every other weekend, especially if she's traveling and he's home.

A Pink Straight Jacket For Kate said...

Nope, sorry. Not interested in watching ANYTHING that has fake Kate Gosselin in it.

She's not funny, entertaining, or talented in any way.

The only thing she is famous (maybe infamous is a better word) for is making 8 kids- Oh, and for being a shrill grifter.

Please don't tell me that she is going to make a career out of being a "dull wet rag"....

A Pink Straight Jacket For Kate said...

P.S. Happy 1st Year Anniversary!!!!!!!!!

Not Watching TLC said...

BTW, in my state, for a girl and a boy to share a room is not permitted. You would get a call from DHS/CPS. With Khate's mentality I wouldn't want to give her this ammunition. Just sayin'

If Jon wants the kids to continue sleeping over he will need to re-think his housing situation to a minimum of a 2-bedroom.

Hippie Chick said...

Can you, if it's true, imagine the grifter that is Kate Gosselin, on Celebrity Apprentice? First & foremost, she is NOT a celebrity. Second, she has zero communication skills. She would alienate everyone who is on her team. I can see it now. Do it my way, or no way. Her constant screeching & screaming to get her way, oh man. People would tire of her pretty quickly. It would not be long until she is "fired". Donald Trump does not put up with whiny brats in the business world, or cheaters, or grifters. He is a self-made man. What is Kate, but a lying, cheating, manipulative, gimme, gimme, gimme, type of person. And WHY would anyone keep giving her opportunities?

Hippie Chick said...

Oh, & you play for charity. She wouldn't win, so no matter. I am finding several articles about her being on CA. Some are confirmed, some are speculation, see for yourself. Google Kate Gosselin, Celebrity Apprentice. I think you guys may be right. UGH UGH UGH.

NT said...

GossipCenter has pics of Kate picking up the kids Wednesday from school. So she is just laying low!!!

NT said...

INF has the same pics and says she just got back in town yesterday. So I don't know what's going on,but her pained look on her face says she hasn't been running for the time she was gone and it looks like she has a problem with one of her legs shown in one of the pics!!!

Khater said...

I would also like to point out that Celebrity Apprentice is about who can raise the most money for charity.
Every celebrity I have seen on the show has their own foundation, or represents an existing one (one they have been giving to and working for, for quite a while).
Where is Khate going to give her money?
Are her acting skill strong enough to convince people that she actually is NOT BITTER about having to work for money, only to give it away?
GIVE ME A BREAK!!!

I truly hope Twist of Kate never airs, but TLC doesn't have any mention of their show with Sarah Palin either-Sarah Palin's Alaska, I think it's called. And we all know that's going to air, for sure. Maybe they just haven't updated the site with the new shows yet, hoping it will get people talking about them and looking for information on them (seems to have worked.)

Dee said...

I don't think Kate would do anything for charity, especially give them money she earned. I doubt she would do CA. I think it is speculation. I think she went away to pout that nobody wants her, including TLC. As my dad always said, you make your bed, now you need to lie in it. Kate will now lie in everything she has done to get ahead and I don't think it is going to be pretty from now on. I think her her tiny little star is fading.

PatE said...

COS....Change of subject.

I was just at preesi's site watching an episode from when Jon was still working. The "I'll get a red spoon" episode.

And I am reminded of when the kids get off the school bus they are always happy to see their Dad. This episode shows Kate at the bus when Cara and Mady get off. They don't even look at their mother.

What does that show Kate?? They are just sooo happy to see you, they avoid looking at your face?

Get a clue. Learn compassion and nurturing love before it's too late for your kids.

Anonymous said...

Donald Trump was on R/K the Monday after Kate was on and stated they would start filming the new Celebrity Apprentice the following week to be aired early spring. They had moved up The Apprentice which is on now because it was SO GOOD and had bumped something already scheduled to be on. They had already announced that Tiger's girlfriend that was going to be on was already FIRED because she was filming CELEBRITY
REHAB. They never announce the Celebrity Apprentices till closer to the show airing but like the last couple of times they are seen in a group in NY and word leaks out.They say they film for a month and half straight full time Mon thru Sun. and it is a grueling schedule.The finale is the only episode filmed live.No sure she could cut that schedule or that any other celebrities could stand her for that long.Maybe she could be on the next Celebrity Rehab.

Hippie Chick said...Can you, if it's true, imagine the grifter that is Kate Gosselin, on Celebrity Apprentice?

Somehow, Kate manages to land herself these gigs i.e. DWTS, the EMMYs, doesn't surprise me these days.


First & foremost, she is NOT a [REAL] celebrity.

Khloe Kardashian, another reality star made the show. Trump recently wanted Tiger's mistress Rachel Uchitel, so he'd cast Kate for all her [dwindling] hype (then discover she's not worth the money he paid for her).


Second, she has zero communication skills. She would alienate everyone who is on her team. I can see it now. Do it my way, or no way. Her constant screeching & screaming to get her way, oh man.

Actually, I could see her doing the opposite, just a lot of nodding and smiling but not really vocal e.g. the View guest host. She couldn't jump into the conversation unless a direct question was thrown her way. She can only relate to herself, limiting her creative ideas. Many of the challenges require selling products - I just don't see her out on the streets convincing people to buy the product.


People would tire of her pretty quickly.

Generally, people would tire of lazy, worthless attitudes/work habits if they don't perform up to par (including Donald Trump).


Khater said...Where is Khate going to give her money?

Maybe that's why she's trying to donate that OCC scooter to Ronald McDonald house. She's trying to build rapport with them, so she could say she's always worked with this charity...blah blah blah.

Or...the [Kate] Gosselin foundation where the money goes to her...er, her kids cause they can never have too much money for college, wink wink.


Honestly, with other celebs fighting to win money for their charity, it would be hard for Donald Trump and her castmates to sugarcoat this for Kate. She's out of her league if she joins this show and will only show her true colors.

Who's she going to be calling at the last minute when her team needs the extra charity money to win the challenge?

It's just too bad she isn't cast with Joan Rivers and Sharon Osborne.

Although...Kate could have a fighting chance if it is Celebrity Apprentice: Reality edition with Snooki, Heidi Montag, etc.

Apprentice Fan said...

I watch every season of CA and would love to see her on that show. The other contestants would eat her alive. IF she was just away filming it my guess would be that she's been fired becasue they have to sign on for at least 6 weeks and they have to stay at the Trump Tower.

Anonymous said...

Does it really take 6 weeks to shoot CA? Not 100% certain, but read or heard it really was only about 2 weeks of filming, not including the finale.

I don't see how proving their insane theories wrong would put me back in their good graces. That doesn't even make any sense.

Actually if you click on the pic it shows you Admin got it from a stock photo. There's nothing to prove.

SG said...

I don't think it makes sense for Kate to go on Celeb Apprentice if the money goes to charity, unless she gets paid somehow by someone to do the show. She has 8 children to support and care for. She should not be going anywhere for a few weeks unless her children benefit from it. If she wants to do charity work she should just do it in PA when the kids are in school or Jon has them.

Linda said...

My whole point was that TLC is not even MENTIONING Twist of Kate, much less promoting it!

They don't do that with new shows. They promote the hell out of them, especially if they are springboarding off another show with a known entity, as this would be.

But not a word.

And "in development?" That sucker's been "in development" for a freaking year. It's code for "it's dead, we just aren't ready to say so yet."

Linda said... Only Kate Plus Eight and that's not even on their airing schedule anymore.

If it wasn't the series finale, then most probably just a season finale. There are no re-runs at the moment because TLC is launching the fall premieres for some of its new/returning shows.


When there's a new show about to debut, the network PRs the HELL out of it. They publicize it to death....When a new show is about to debut, the main player doesn't disappear off the face of the earth. If anything, you see MORE of them and you hear more out of them, publicizing the show to everyone who will listen.

What about Sarah Palin? TLC's biggest meal ticket has a show coming up in a little over a month, yet there is no press about it except the premiere date. It doesn't appear on TLC's main page or the drop down menu. I don't keep up with all things Sarah Palin, but the only media exposure I've seen is her appearance on DWTS to support Bristol.

TLC probably won't promote for any show premieres until a couple of weeks before the official air date.

When Kate disappears, we later find out she's out of town for work i.e. Cabo trip for People. She was probably filming during this week's absence. Or, possibly promoting overseas since Discovery announced TLC was launching in eastern Europe. She's one of the few TLC stars that hasn't taken a trip abroad e.g. Little People, Big World and Cake Boss.



If Kate had a new show about to debut, she'd be mentioning it all over the place--on Regis and Kelly, in the People article, you name it. There would probably even be pap pictures of her "on set."

There isn't any show to debut currently, so there would be no need for Kate to promote a show that's "in development". If the show were to finally get a premiere date, then we would see Kate doing promotion as that date closes in. The latest appearances were to salvage ratings for the Kate Plus 8 season/series finale.

Reading Kate's recent quotes about wanting to find a man, etc., I think she's pitching/hinting for a dating show. It's similar to what she did with Jay Leno/DWTS. They could possibly ditch Twist of Kate and revamp it to Date With Kate. Shows can change while "in development". That People cover screams, "Men, check me out! I'm hot!". I shudder thinking about Kate dating on tv, but it would have a more appeal than the fake-help reality show.

As far as paps, it's been proven that Kate can travel without the paps following her e.g. she had recently left town yet was never spotted. If she's filming, most likely the persons involved would sign a confidentiality agreement.

A Pink Straight Jacket For Kate said...

It's beyond me why Discovery/TLC insists on keeping Kate. She has nothing to offer, except being expensive to the company- which goes against the objective of any company (to make money). So, what is it? What are they gaining by keeping her there? Besides bad press...

She's made money for them, and I don't think that the well has yet run dry. When it does, they'll throw her out with the bucket. It's the old "the one you love to hate" syndrome. She's the epitome of bad mothering, dispicable human being, narcissistic persona, all wrapped up into one insufferable body. It doesn't matter if she's liked. Bad vibes, in this case, generate as much revenue as good vibrations! It's a sad commentary on today's society and values.

I just wanted it set straight for the record for Ellen's sake and the Admin's sake.

Well duh it was to clarify it for the sheeple, so that they get their facts straight before accusing people of fabrication and manipulation
~~~~
But we don't CARE if the sheeple get it straight or not. This is a 'haterz' site, remember? I think you wanted it clarified here, for the benefit of the folks reading here from your other site (sheeple) you post on. If you're going to post on both a sheeple and haterz site, out of respect for Admin, I suggest keeping them separate. I suspect you wouldn't ask BM to clarify something for us haterz who read there? Again, it wasn't Admin's responsibility to "set the record straight".

Admin, sorry for the confusion and the 'heated' discussion. I'm through.

Hippie Chick posted this above...it says Nov. T of K will air.

Nope. Read the update in red.

Nonetheless we would have posted about it anyway because it was reported here and independent witness saw it, coorborating to a T exactly Ellen's account of it.
------------------------------------------

Oh yeah, well the Kate fans are claiming that "independant witness" was Ellen in disguise.

GossipCenter has pics of Kate picking up the kids Wednesday from school. So she is just laying low!!!

P.S. Happy 1st Year Anniversary!!!!!!!!!

Hiya said...

I read on preesi's site that Kate messed up The Donalds hair when she met him. I doubt he likes her too much. Who would do that? Oh yeah, we're talking about KG.

NT said...

INF has the same pics and says she just got back in town yesterday. So I don't know what's going on,but her pained look on her face says she hasn't been running for the time she was gone and it looks like she has a problem with one of her legs shown in one of the pics!!!

Administrator said... I think you can raise happy, healthy, wonderful kids whether you live in a mansion, a one-bedroom apartment, or a shelter.
================
ITA Admin, but the fact is we've seen numerous occasions where Kate is visibly out of town, Jon tweets about what a great dinner he had with his kids and the kids are returned to the mansion to sleep. I find it appalling that they are sent home to sleep in a home with paid employees when they have an unemployed father nearby.

I hope this isn't Jon's preference and I hope he's doing everything in his power to change that arrangement. The kids shouldn't just be overnight with him every other weekend, especially if she's traveling and he's home.

Celeb Apprentice is being filmed now. They start filming in fall Sept/Oct. Kate is probably there.
The Apprentice (a different show) is on right now and this season is a bunch of business people who have been hit hard by the recession.

I do think that if we see Kate in the next week we will know the whole "You've been fired" and that she wasn't on there very long.

Celebrity Apprentice takes about 1 - 1 1/2 months to film (for those that last the longest) and will start airing episodes in Feb or March of 2011.

Kate being on the show is a HUGE possibility and probably the reason the kids don't know where she is. Little kids love chatting up stuff as those who live in Jon's complex know already.

As long as those kids are off the TV, I don't care if Kate packs herself and her itty bitty bikini in an ice-block and sets up on a pole in Times Square for attention.
