In the second time this month a major media outlet has discussed the Gosselin twin's appearance last January on the Today show, Paul Petersen has spoken out to Yahoo T.V. The child advocate and former child star had this to say about the twins' "choking" on national T.V.:
""That was the most frightening example of the damage being done to these kids. They were incoherent. They couldn't say what they really felt. They'd been turned into these performing seals, and not for their own benefit. If they had at least been child actors, they would have a support group of similar kids. I think this is doing tremendous long-term damage — the kind of damage that you really don't see until 10 years later."

| Osmond |
Just last week, the hosts of The Talk, two of whom are former child stars, had similar criticism for the appearance. describing the twins as "shell-shocked" and "overwhelmed." Marie Osmond added, "As a parent, you need to look at your children's needs individually. I saw that Today show. Those girls didn't want to be on T.V. They shouldn't be on T.V. and that should be her responsibility as a mother."
Thank you Paul, Marie, Sara Gilbert and other former child stars who give these children a voice. You know better than anyone the dangers here. Of all people, Kate should listen to you.
1041 sediments (sic) from readers:
«Oldest ‹Older 201 – 400 of 1041 Newer› Newest»Sylvia LaFair was smart to just walk away.
Let Kate crow about "winning". That's fine.
Every other sane person on planet Earth understands that a judge ruled AGAINST Kate, and in favor of LaFair.
Kate used her money and power and mounted a staring contest with LaFair, and LaFair blinked, which was the right decision.
LaFair went on record saying that she came to realize that Kate lives for this shit, and by continuing to engage Kate, she was giving her exactly what she wanted.
Sylvia- consider yourself lucky to have only lost 10K.
Kate would have ruined your life on every level she possibly could.
She's that venomous and vengeful.
Tucker's Mom (#8), again with the silly ideas! TFW does it All.
By. Herself. No tree maintenance, nannies, housekeepers -
where do you get this mishegas? If TFW says she does 99%
of everything -- and I guess that 1% is the "occas babysitter,"
then I believe her! Thank heavens she takes breaks once in
a while -- or, like, maybe 70 times in one weekend -- to relax
and check in with her fans via Twitter. You're just jellus!
The way they carried on during the CA filming and the attention their "closeness" seemed to bring, made me believe that a turn one way or the other would soon happen.
====
Yep, and if I were Gina after watching them carry on the way they did for seven years, I would have told Kate to keep the s.o.b.
The comments at ROL are hilarious as usual
As much as I want to have a chuckle over Steve allegedly quitting,
I have to have a pang of sadness when I realize that yet another
adult will be leaving the children's lives
&&&
I never got the sense, not once, that they had any kind of relationship with him.
Also I'm happy to see some guy who would steal pizza from an 11 year old out of their lives.
This one, they should cut their losses on. It's not an Aunt Jodi situation.
I realize someone like Kate is never going to let this go will appeal me to the highest court in the land
++++++
But but she drop her lawsuit against Robert and Jon that she claimed was for the kids safety.
In the beginning of the first special, when Kate was doing a voice over, they showed several clips, and they had two clips of Kate where Steve was by her side. That's where they blurred out his face.
Also I'm happy to see some guy who would steal pizza from an 11 year old out of their lives.

Exactly it's not like he gave a damn about the 8 to began with. Also leaving his kids for what weeks at a time while letting their mother look like a fool in the media.
Steve rat claws Neild is a selfish prick. If this it true good riddance I say.
❀ℛεɑℓℤɩɠɠƴℱℓℴ❀ @RealZiggyFlo · 6 Apr 2012
@Chablis4u @kateplusmy8 It's Lafair, not LafLair. Someone withdraws their case against you, then you are the winner. Lafair ran, ran, ran.
The judge ruled against Kate, you idiot. How stupid is this person? I guess that's to be expected when you can't figure out what "dismissed with prejudice" means. Kate lost. Kate didn't win. Kate appealed. Sylvia walked away. Smart move.
Does this Zip know what it means to appeal?
But but she drop her lawsuit against Robert and Jon that she claimed was for the kids safety.
&&&
I think her attorneys when they realized that Jon and Robert were going to really fight this, had a heart to heart with her. Told her we got nothing and you're going to spend hundreds of thousands of dollars on nothing. It's also possible they wanted to drop out once it got messy, which they have every right to do, and I think she knew full well she had nobody else to pick up the pieces if they abandoned her. We already know that her attorneys were sending the second and third in command and not going themselves, which is a red flag they were losing interest.
This was not a little dispute over a few unpaid bills that she could screw around with for years getting her way on it. She dropped this one because she had no choice BUT to drop it.
I think the manic tweeting this weekend may have been because the Enquirer called for a statement about Steve being gone. Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain it always rains skittles in Gosselinland!
TLC stinks said... 4
I only read here that he was on the update special but blurred. Maybe true but that was filmed a while ago and he could have quit recently. ITA, something had to give. Kate perceived him as her own man. Wonder if her drinking has escalated.
&&&&&&&&&
Perhaps Steve had already contracted with TLC to work on the update special. He followed through but had his face blurred so as not to add fuel to the CA fire. Just thinking out loud....
Robert said that Kate went on a 3 week rager last fall after Jenny McCarthy got the View chair. He said the kids tiptoed on eggshells during that time, to avoid her wrath. I can only imagine her behavior after Steve cut ties with her.
Flimsy Flamsy, you are right. Steve was a one constant for the Gosselin kids, now just one more person to disappear from their lives.
Actually that's really weird he was blurred in light of this article.
He wasn't blurred before, he was actually a minor character.
The way they carried on during the CA filming and the attention their "closeness" seemed to bring, made me believe that a turn one way or the other would soon happen. Either they make their relationship official or their would be a parting of the ways. Something had to give. Lol, the source for the info is the Neild's neighbor. Poor Kate, everyone does leave her just like she said ;)
**************
The source is the neighbor?
Interesting.
Kate and Steve looked very cozy in NYC during CA, but they've looked cozy for years and years now.
There have been many reports of people witnessing their closeness.
Heck, during the RV episode they had a fricking lovers quarrel!
I don't know. Gina had to know that her husband was straying with Kate, on many levels for all these years, so why she's finally had it, who knows.
I thought Robert wrote that Steve did have a good relationship with kids. However, that was not what we saw on camera. I never thought he was serious about her anyway, if they indeed had an affair. The guy is 51 and has college aged sons. Why would he parent eight children with a nut like Kate?
Admin, you are correct. Steve made the career decision to leave a loser and go where the money is. I almost feel sorry for Kate. I am sure in her delusions she believed they would end up together. If anything, she probably considered him her best friend. This also may explain why Jamie hung around for a good portion of the summer, you know, moral support from a girlfriend after a breakup type of thing. Rough going for the kids. In her state of mind, let's hope she does not blame the kids for Steve leaving.
I don't know, I think most people take a lot of pride in paying off what they owe and would be embarrassed to be called out on not doing that.
***********
But, but...Kate didn't receive therapy! She don't need no stinking therapy!
Another think that LaFair probably came to understand is that TLC was backing Kate all the way, and told her so- warned her really.
Back the f*ck off of our golden goose, bitch, or you'll be sorry!
Here's how- remember Kate's monologue during the tups birthday episode? The one where Kate specifically mentioned the lawsuit and rolled her eyes and said she was being billed for something she never got?
Yeah, that was a not-so-subtle hint to LaFair that Kate had the resources of some pretty deep pockets, and LaFair would be bled dry if she persisted.
So all it takes to keep your man from straying is go to go blonde and do some squats?? Ultimatum? She stuck in there longer than I would have. Don't get me wrong, I hope they are trying to work for their marriage, but the source and quotes sound a little shallow, immature. Why now? And once a slimey rat clawed cheat, always a rat clawed cheat. jmo
Maybe she'll get some new boobs just realllly keep him from wandering
Ok, I know it's summer and all kids need a break from school, but is anyone wishing it was time for the G8 to go back to school? For TFMJG, this has been the summer of 'hits'--the mediocre reviews for her "comeback" special(s), Robert's book, the ROL articles, and Rat Claws departure (although I believe that happened at least a month ago). These 'hits' probably translate into at least verbal and emotional abuse of the kids as TFMJG struggles with her new reality. Far better to be away from her for 9 hours every day in a supportive environment.
I think that he was working on a percentage of anything she received for any appearances, leaked info to radaronline, book sales, etc. His fees may have been covered by CA, the Today show and View, along with the Essex house. Since those shows don't generally pay for interviews, but will pay transportation, hotel, meals and other expenses, he probably was paid well for his time babysitting her.
Even if he was paid 100% of any of her earnings, 100% of zero is zero! Glad to know that Gina is in the best shape of her life, and has highlighted her hair, and that Jon was paunchy, though. Very important to the story (eye roll).
Steve and Kyte made the front page of the National Enquirer. (Picture & related story at the link)
http://www.celebdirtylaundry.com/2014/kate-gosselin-splits-with-married-bodyguard-steve-neild-photo/
So her web of friends gets closer. Guess the only adult left in her web is Jamie. I don't think Deanna really counts, seems that she is only around for work-related projects...and don't see too many of those in Ate's future. LOL

Have the fans weighed in on the Radar story? Have they decided
whose mortgage payment it went towards? I imagine one ewe
projects the SheepSignal on the barnyard wall, and they call a
meeting to decide how they feel, and who they blame, and how
to spin it.
Ok, how about a game.

I personally don't believe 98% of what the National Enquirer writes (or Radar for that matter). I do hope that it's true that Steve has left. If I were his wife I would have given him the ultimatum long ago. The money must have been awfully good because I can't imagine anyone putting their family through the public humiliation he has if the money wasn't there.
Maybe this is why she got her boobs done in order to keep rat claws around.
"Steve Neild, the security expert who is often by Kate's side, will remain a fixture. "He's always going to be with us. He and his wife are friends," she says. "He has moved from security to top adviser and road manager. His opinions are great; his advice is great. Everything we went through was hard on both our families; through it all he has cared about my kids and their future. He's amazing support when I need it."
ha. That was from an article in People from Sept. 2011. Shmoops isn't very good at forecasting the future.

Thanks SusanNH,NJGal, White, Lalalalala, lukebandit and High Sodium for your wonderful dessert suggestions. Not sure which direction I'll go or if I'll wing something from all your ideas. The lemonade cupcake/pie ideas sound perfect for a summer party.
As for the "big news", really? Kid got their braces off...woohoo! If her blowing that tidbit of info into earth shattering "party worthy" news isn't a sign of her mania than I don't know what is.
The woman is losing it.
I don't think Kate has a lot of money left with the way she spends on anything and everything mostly for herself. I doubt there is any money coming in other than dividends on her investments. She has not had a steady paycheck in 3 years. It has to cost her between $25,000 and $30,000 a month just to keep up with the property expenses, private school and bus fare for the 8 kids, 3 cars, insurances, food, and all else that comes along. Maybe she can dip her paws into the kids trust funds, but that too will come to an end.
If I were in her shoes I would be frantic about now. Even all the vile things being said about her doesn't seem to get a reaction. Maybe she is taking it all out on her poor kids. This is a saga nobody could write.
And bless Collin for finding a way to have a little peace once in awhile with the farmer.
I don't know, but I'm not buying this "splitsville" story at all. I suspect we'll be seeing him with her again SHOULD she ever get more gigs.
Seriously, why NOW, Gina? Perhaps their marriage would have been in trouble anyway, with or without the Kate factor. Just not buying it. He'll be around, if needed.
Whether or not Steve and Kate were sexually intimate, they were definitely emotionally intimate.
I think Gina just finally got fed up with all the bs and gave him the ultimatum. And Steve's not a fool. He saw how Kate treated Jon and he knew that if he left Gina for her and really made a commitment to her, he'd be treated like a servant at best and at worst, trash. So I don't think there was any contest between Gina and Kate. Gina is low maintenance and appears to be able to take care of herself. Kate is...well, Kate.

I think it's very suspect that suddenly, Steve doesn't want to appear on camera, especially after he became part of the cast, front and center.
I would have been shocked if Kate and Steve had a happily ever after.
Maybe Kate went off on him big time and he had enough rather than he decided to concentrate on his family. Really, he had to be sticking around for 1. the money and 2. sex. There was no upside, career wise, to him being Kate's Advisor. I am surprised he stayed with her as long as he did. BTW, the Enquirer does print some outlandish stories, but considering the publicity and the state of Kate's career these days, it makes total sense Steve is gone. Sometimes The Enquirer gets it right and they do know how to dig (i.e. John Edwards).

Right there. That's just the cherry on top of the shit Sundae that Kate created.
I sound like a broken record, but long, long ago, Kate should have let Steve go first and foremost for the sake of her marriage and kids, but not far behind, for the sake of Steve's wife and children.
Any decent person would have put their needs behind these most important things.
Nothing out of Milo yet? LOL
Every person that comes in contact with Krazy lives to regret it.
Adults have a hard time with her, can you imagine being her child with no one to protect you?
I wonder if the "little worry that popped up" was that she was afraid the Enquirer had photographic proof of their affair?
Or maybe she was afraid that Steve-O spilled the beans?
I wonder if Steve's company is worried about problems after Robert's book came out so they recommended he leave her. He was around her and the kids so much through so many years that he must have seen alot and it wouldn't look good for the company if it came out that he was seeing the abuse and didn't report it, The stories he could tell about her! Would love to read a book by him! (but I know it will never happen)
Maybe that is why Jamie was just there again with Kate, after Steve was done w/ her. She was just there at the end of May for the bday party.
From FB is seems like Jamie has a pretty good life w/ her husband and lots of friends, doing friends and couples things. So Kate must have been desperate for her one and only friend.

If rat claws and Ate were having an affair, that's all it ever was, and was going to be.
Face it, there aren't too many men that would take on a ball-buster like Ate--and adding 8, count'em, EIGHT kids to the mix (lol), I can't think of many men that would be interested in a real relationship.
She will never remarry. ever. no one will want her.
As far as the braces thing, I think Ate is giving her parents the big "F-U"; I guess her being 1 of 5 kids denied her what she so dearly wanted...to be like her peers (and I think it's also why she acts so freaking stupid on her 'trips'. Seems like during the Grand Canyon trip she said something about never getting to go on vacations as a child.
A lot of people have had a harder upbringing than what Ate experienced, but for some reason she just can't process it and move on like a normal person.

Both parts of the special are on YouTube. In a few brief frames in Part 2, you can see a man with a blue shirt and light colored shorts, and he looks a lot like Steve. So maybe Steve was there for the party, but he was hidden pretty well.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=clOZj74m0Po
Check these times out(approximate). Using full screen more helps:
30:15---look above Alexis' head. He's standing in the driveway.
31:23---under the balloon arch-seems like he's on the phone.
31:53---to left of the girl in the black jacket with brown hair. Looks like he's moving things on the table.
I love the recipes suggestions! As Kate would say, Yum!!!!!!!!!

Love Freddie Mercury and his mad vocal skills. When he sang at LIVE AID in 1985, the drs. told him that he could not sing because if he did, he would destroy his vocal cords. He decided to do it to raise money for the children starving in Africa.
He came out and sang and hit that high note and held it for what seemed like hours. I had tears. I couldn't believe what I was watching was live. Next year, that will be 30 years ago!
Hmm... it was noted that Steve was nowhere to be found during Kate's latest media tour in NYC on GMA.
If Steve was there, he would have been walking with her and opening the limo door. Instead, it was just Deanna.
What happens w/ the kids' trust that his name is on? Any other paperwork/fake companies?
I wonder if the "little worry that popped up" was that she was afraid the Enquirer had photographic proof of their affair?
More likely that she was worried that she didn't have TLC behind her to squash it, like they did with that Philly reporter. Bet this cost her a pretty penny...out of the kids' money.
How can the kids be so attached to the body-guard when Steve was always with Kate and she was never home? (rhetorical question). I agree with admin. This slime took pizza from an 11 year old. He doesn't give a rat's ass about those kids and he never did.

I have a feeling this story is a plant of some sort. Not sure why, just seems odd that this comes on the heels of an almost DAILY story about WOS.
Like a few of us have said, why now? At the height of the rumors, at the height of the suspicions, not one single "insider" came to his wife's defense? It just seems suspect.
I'll believe Steve and TFW have parted ways for good when he isn't spotted w/her for a year. He was just there for filming over Memorial Day weekend.
I wonder if the Philly reporter will come forward now. TFW doesn't have TLC behind her Ny more and didnt he say he had pictures?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
You don't sound like a broken record!
13 years ago today, I woke up from the 3 day coma I was in when I had a massive stroke on life support. I totally agree with you Tucker because my ex had met a woman out of state online and was planning to leave me and the boys to start a new life.
If he had any compassion when he came to the hospital to see me on life support, he would of stayed with me. But I think his dream shack, not talking about her, it's her house in Orlando is where he wanted to me. IF it would of been me having an affair, I have told people for years that if that was my ex on LS, I would of called up my lover and said, Hey Bozo, it's over. I'm sorry, but this happened and I am staying with my family. But he chose not to do that. But that is on him, not me. I feel really bad for him, because he has started paying back what he has reaped. He lost his mother to basically the same thing that happened to me and he and his sister, who I adore, didn't get to see her before she died. The ex couldn't afford the 2K airline ticket to Germany and his sister couldn't either. Sitting in a 500K house with a new car and can't pay for a plane ticket. They had to wait for a week and a half for it to drop to 500 dollars. Then when the ex got over there, he found out that he and his sister were going to have to pay back money from the local government that they gave to his mother to supplement her income. He is paying for that for the way he treated me before he left, screaming at me in a rampage that I could go to DHR and get all the food stamps, government assistance I could and then come back and sit down on my behind, nice word for what he said and think of more free stuff I could get.
Even more unbelievable all the guys that helped him get there have all suffered greatly, lightning hit a house and burnt to the ground, one really badly broke his arm and rotator cuff, one was caught DUI on a motorcycle and they forced him to sell it and took his drivers license away for a long time, another guy's mother was in a bad car accident, who was elderly and his sister dropped dead.
Reminds me of the people who wanted to talk about the JFK assassinations. Over 100 people have died. Even Dorothy Kilgallan of What's my line? She was a huge reporter and was going to come out with the info and she had her notes she gave to her housekeeper. She was found dead, and then a couple of days later, her housekeeper was dead.
Seriously, he needs to be sticking around TLC celebs who are current and relevant. It starts to look pathetic for his image if he sticks to her like some kind of Driving Miss Daisy thing.
====
bwahaha. Driving Miss Daisy. lol! I was thinking along the lines of Guarding Tess. Seems to me Nick Cage could not stand Tess but she insisted on having him as her security guard and only him.
I do wonder though ... what the hell IS Kate going to do without her guard/manager/friend/companion/gigolo? She can't go to the ladies room without him. Or the broom closet for that matter.
Sigh. I don't get it. How come everyone disappears but Kate?

I'm skeptical about Bonnie and Clyde, too.
But, the NE's nanny piece was true...they seem to really be verifying what they're writing about Kate.
Vanessa, I do not believe the story is a plant. Kate is setting a record for bad publicity, it keeps dripping day to day. Just like the nanny saw an opportunity to make some cash, so did the neighbor. I think there will be more to come. Actually now is a good time to sell a Kate horror story because she is in the tabloids every day and online. Everyone will continue to pile on. Robert's book is selling and people are interested. If Steve was indeed at the party and he was blurred out, that says plenty.

Here's one spin they could use.
"Kate has grown into an emotionally strong woman who can now take care of herself and her kids without any help from anyone. She's the quintessential Mother Earth who fiercely protects her children, and she always has their best interests at heart. She knows that with positivity and her amazing outlook on life, that whatever is thrown her way, she can now deal with it on her own without the advice or protection from anyone. We will always have her back and be there to support her. That's all she needs."
Well, I think it sounds good! LOL!
I do wonder though ... what the hell IS Kate going to do without her guard/manager/friend/companion/gigolo? She can't go to the ladies room without him. Or the broom closet for that matter.

That's what Deanna's being groomed for.
OT because Ate is still utterly boring.
I just watched a great documentary, it's called: Finding Vivian Maier.
It's about the late Vivian Maier, a nanny whose previously unknown cache of 100,000 photographs earned her a posthumous reputation as one the most accomplished street photographers.
It's very interesting.
Here's a link: http://www.findingvivianmaier.com/
Your story makes me very sad Luke. I have wondered what had happened to you. You must have been young. What caused it, if you don't mind me asking.
You have a great attitude, that's for sure!!

No bites.
Her love life is about as exciting as watching paint dry.
Gosh, I remember watching Kate's show where they heavily pitched her dating life, when she and Jamie went to a club in NYC.
First of all, Kate was in such a nasty mood, and then she was the biggest dork around the guys at the club.
Jamie had far more game than Kate.
She's quoting platitudes now! She's on the depressive side of her mood.

I don't think TFW is looking to go on the morning shows right now because she may have to answer the hard questions. The book is out there and it's getting attention. She's not going to be able to poke at her eyes and pretend to cry nor does she have TLC protecting her so the hosts won't have to stick to her script. Nope, if she was going to go on a set the record straight tour she'd have done it by now. JMO.

Spanking to me is one, possibly two, swats on the behind when the child (older than 1.5?, younger than 4) has done something egregious, such as run into the street after being told not to. It's done in the spur of the moment as a reaction to danger, and not in anger.
)))))))))))) Really Mel? I always reacted with gratefulness and an almost euphoria when my child ran out in traffic (once!) and wasn't hurt. I HUGGED her, hitting her didn't even enter the realm of my mind. Sure, I was upset with her much LATER (and told her so) but I certainly wouldn't think to spank her as a spur of the moment decision. Good grief.
IF one chooses to 'spank' a child, I'd hope it wouldn't be done as a rash, unthinking decision.
**************
Please - let us not judge one another. My mother was and is the most gentle and loving of mothers. Yet I clearly remember getting a spanking from her when I ran into the street without thinking, at probably age 3. Oh, I cried and cried, but my mother reacted in fear for my safety. She wanted me never to run into the street again.
As a parent myself, I made a decision not to spank my child -- after having given him a couple spankings and feeling horrible for doing so. That was my decision to make, and it's one I certainly encourage for other parents, or ask them to consider.
That doesn't mean I find fault with my own parents for spanking us occasionally as kids. But as people and times change, so do ideas on how to raise children. I have never regretted my decision, and I have a very well behaved and high achieving teenager on my hands, one who doesn't curse, gets good grades, and otherwise stays out of trouble. You can raise a child without need for corporal punishment.
However, some parents do give swats on the behind if their child misbehaves. I think the main point is -- are you overall raising your child with love and kindness? Is spanking something quite infrequent, or your first response? It's clear to me that Kate's first and usually only response when she is angry or irritated, is to strike out. She prefers to use an implement to do so. She enjoys inflicting pain and exerting her control.

********************
Me too. The screen door would have hit his behind long ago. I had to roll my eyes when the article said Gina had been working out and had her hair done, all to look better for the "silver fox." We must have gotten into a time machine and went back to the 1950's, where women fought hard to keep their cheating spouses. Better for her to have long ago created a separate bank account and be channeling 50% of the income into it. Then she can leave whenever she's had enough humiliation.
I think Rat Claws sees the writing on the wall. He knows that Kate will never earn big money again, and he also knows he raked in a ton of money while the getting was good. Now, he's moving on to greener pastures. Ohhhhhh Kate -- I guess you didn't know how to help Steve ;( I has a sad for you - not!
For Nield, it was always about the money he could make. Now that the money is finally drying out, what do you know? Old Steve is seeing the error of his ways and returning to his wife and kids. Yeah, right. That's the same excuse disgraced politicians use when the retire suddenly (right before the indictments).
Wait isn't this an old story from radar that Steve supposedly left? Didn't radar or KK try this once be for and we called that recycle story a plant?

" So is there trouble in paradise, or was it nothing more than a job Neild couldn’t make it to?"

I do wonder though ... what the hell IS Kate going to do without her guard/manager/friend/companion/gigolo? She can't go to the ladies room without him. Or the broom closet for that matter.

Steve would have to move on eventually, if Kate's tv gigs dried up. He's got 2 college-aged kids.
In other child exploiter news, Tamara Barney Judge of RHOOC won't be returning next season, so her ex and father of their kids can relax about cameras being in their faces, eating away at their privacy.
Until her next RTV scheme...

Here's one spin they could use.
"Kate has grown into an emotionally strong woman who can now take care of herself and her kids without any help from anyone. She's the quintessential Mother Earth who fiercely protects her children, and she always has their best interests at heart. She knows that with positivity and her amazing outlook on life, that whatever is thrown her way, she can now deal with it on her own without the advice or protection from anyone. We will always have her back and be there to support her. That's all she needs."
Well, I think it sounds good! LOL!
4444444444444444
Except Kate still cant get across a parkinglot without someone directing her.
I think most posters here are right; the money dried up and she is going nowhere fast. She's done. And RatKlaws had better distance himself before those kids start filing lawsuits against all of those who were complicit in the abuse.
If I were Gina, I would have dumped my cheating husband years ago. Oh wait! I DID! yay me!
I personally don't find Steve the least bit attractive. The first time I heard his voice I thought it was a woman. It is high pitched and whiney. Maybe he is good looking until he opens his mouth.
Wasn't there some flak when they were shooting CA about Steve being glued to Kate and none of the others had "body guards"? After that it seems they were no longer in photos together. I hope all of this was worth it to her.
A quote from the InTouch article "Here's hoping Kate gets some new security soon to keep her and her brood of eight adequately protected from the paparazzi... and her ex-husband John Gosselin."
WHAT THE :F:? ? ? ?
Why do the kids need protecting from their DAD whom they see every week? And there hasn't been any paparazzi around here for AGES. No one gives a Sh*t whether TFW is shopping at Target in Wyomissing anymore.
Actually that's really weird he was blurred in light of this article.
He wasn't blurred before, he was actually a minor character.
I think after the article during CA taping that he'd bowed out and others were now 'bodyguarding' TFW, that he had to stay out of the picture to keep the story consistent. I think the blurring was done to keep rumors and speculation to a minimum.
If the story is true and they've split I wonder what's happened with their business arrangement. Weren't they partners in a production company (a business write-off)?
The article says he quit as her 'security' person, but per TFW, he hasn't worked in that capacity for a long time. So, is this story a type of Kate-speak where word choice and semantics are up for interpretation?
If I were him, a VP of a security firm with supposed high profile and important clients and jobs, I'd consider having to road-manage and advise TFW to be a royal pain in the azz.
I'll believe they're done when we don't hear his name mentioned along w/hers for a very longggg time.

Maybe this is when rat claws left her.
This is the first time I've considered that her comment about a strong man might have been about Steve and not a slam at Jon.
If it's true he finally said I've had it, I can see her thinking he is not strong anymore. It was enviable the relationship no matter what it was would fail eventually, it's Kate.
I personally don't find Steve the least bit attractive. The first time I heard his voice I thought it was a woman. It is high pitched and whiney. Maybe he is good looking until he opens his mouth.

Ugh me neither. In person he was quite short, had small hands, and was too whimpy looking. I felt like I could take him and he's supposed to be security?
I also don't really gravitate toward people who are so serious. He never cracks a smile or seems like he has much of a personality. I like people with easy smiles and laughs, who don't take life so darn seriously.

Both parts of the special are on YouTube. In a few brief frames in Part 2, you can see a man with a blue shirt and light colored shorts, and he looks a lot like Steve. So maybe Steve was there for the party, but he was hidden pretty well.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=clOZj74m0Po
Check these times out(approximate). Using full screen more helps:
30:15---look above Alexis' head. He's standing in the driveway.
31:23---under the balloon arch-seems like he's on the phone.
31:53---to left of the girl in the black jacket with brown hair. Looks like he's moving things on the table.
@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
You can also see Steve at 11:24 in the background when they are shopping for clothes for the party. He's in jeans, blue shirt (duh!), and a gray jacket keeping the area private from other shoppers. One of the boys is in front of him (Collin maybe?).
It's also interesting to note that Kate changes clothes after baking the cake to go pick up the kids at the bus stop, and the kids come off the bus in their uniforms (15:00) and get into the van to go to the pet store, but when the kids get out of the van at the pet store (15:23) they are in different clothes. When and why did this miraculous costume change occurred is a great mystery, since Kate claims this is the realist reality show that has ever been not scripted!
Thanks for the link and great sleuthing Kate is a twit.

As opposed to a manly woman, or a he/she? I guess that kind of eliminates Gladys.
Those are some eagle eyes since they really did just show him for a nano second but I think you are right that's Steve.
I noticed in the store clip, he is holding some of the shirts the kids had picked out. That's an assistant's job, not a bodyguard. How is your bodyguard going to take care of the snipers with a sized 10-12 striped hoodie tucked under his arm?

Just glanced at her twitter. She's tweeting dumb stuff about lotion and some gross pig wrote something nasty w a penis emoji. Nice K.
Is she interviewing to fill Steve's position? Has Milo sent her resume? Perhaps the Defective Detective could vet the applicants.

Speaking of the matchy-matchy outfits for kate and Steve, I'd say kate had it in her CA to Steve that IF IF IF he was to leave that he had to get the M-M clothes dry cleaned on his dime and drop them off at the consignment shop where she has dropped off things for YEARS.
Bwahahaha.
I really believe Steve is gone, baby, gone. He had to go to the circus cluster because he was contracted to, but she knew about it and that is why he was getting blurred on TLC. But if he was getting blurred on CA, maybe that concierge service, Essex House was the big last hoorah, going out in a blaze of glory goodbye!

She's her own security. People probably scatter when they see her coming toward them. She doesn't need TLC anymore to clear the store when she's shopping. She does that all by herself.
Steve was blurred out on the special because he had already told Kate he was quitting. In her usual enraged reaction to someone not doing what she wanted, Kate has obliterated him from her life. Therefore, she made sure his face was obsured on the show
LOL, didn't she basically steal him away from his girlfriend? Homewrecker style?

Her exact words were "She was gone the next day".
For a great laugh, go to the 2:23 mark and take a look at her plastic face looking like it is literally sliding into her neck

Is there something wrong with the audio in this clip or does Kate's voice really sound like that? It's terrible.
Did you notice Steve looked frumpier than usual? Usually he has a nice military style tucked shirt and slacks. In the clips his shirt is untucked and not as fitted and he's wearing jeans.
And playing on his cell phone while on duty isn't like him.
Like a phone it in situation. I don't think it's imagining things to say this isn't his usual M.O. Normally I'd write off a tabloid story like this one but it really makes sense especially since he seems way less engaged in these clips, had his face blurred, and then wasn't at her latest appearance?? If the shoe or rat claw fits!

I think I remember two "contacts" between the kids and Steve. At some time in the past, I it seems like one of the little girls was leaning against him and had her arms around his legs. He was just looking straight ahead and didn't touch the little girl. Then another time that he was having a ball with the kids was when the kids all got sea sick and were vomiting so much. I remember him holding a bucket for one of the boys as he was vomiting. Am I right?

I love how Kate brought it all around to her in the end.
They definitely sped up the video. I recorded it when it aired and she droned on and on and on in that monotone voice of hers, taking forever to say nothing. It was like taking 2 hours to watch 60 Minutes, but more annoying.
Here's the link to Part 1 of the special. At approx. 1:32, you can see the clips where they blurred out Steve's face.

I thought her voice sounded weird too.
How in the h*ll did she think she was going to make a 3 layer cake look like a tent? She said she was disappointed but frosted it anyway When she put the third layer on top was it just supposed to miraculously turn into a pointy top?

Maybe she was going to use her "good bra" as a mold, and fill it up with all the extra frosting she had in those 3 tubs that were on the counter. Then once the frosting set, she could turn it over onto the third layer to make the pointy top.
That whole baking and frosting the cake was such a sham. No way would that cake feed all those "guests" at that party. It would barely be enough for the 9 of them plus Jamie and Deanna. It was just another plot point to show her in the kitchen and give her something else to moan about when it got "ruined"(on purpose).
He had to go to the circus cluster because he was contracted to, but she knew about it and that is why he was getting blurred on TLC.
-------------------
Why would he have been contracted to do so? Wasn't his bond with TLC cut when the show was terminated? I thought he was Kate's road manager/adviser and his paycheck was coming out of her pocket.
I think I remember two "contacts" between the kids and Steve.
------------------------
On the plane trip to Utah, didn't he grab one of the girls by the arm and she wrestled away from him? Back then he was known as Mr. Gray, and nobody really was sure who exactly he was.
Well now, the manic tweeting is starting to make sense. She knew this story was hitting the stands, thus the happy, happy, joy, joy tweets. The lady doth protest to much, methinks ...

It's possible he already contracted himself to TLC for any update specials, if reasonably available or whatever. You can put anything in a contract. He's definitely still helping out TLC just being seen with the Little Couple so he may have some kind of contract with them to help them out for whatever THEY want him to help out with, I don't find that hard to believe.

JoyinVirgi is - I loved it. I haven laughed like that in a long time.
I loved that Jared was in the subway, eating a subway sandwich under a subway sign. Can the product placement get any more blatant than that?! I loved that Judd Hirsch was the taxi driver. The twitter comments were priceless. One of the funniest twitter comments: Most unbelievable moment of the movie was when Tara Reid said "I have an idea".
I believe Steve could be gone. I don't believe it's because Gina dyed her hair. For whatever reason, she doesn't seem to care what he does. I think it's either the lack of money or Kate throwing some fit at him. I wouldn't be surprised if she started treating him just like she treated Jon. But it's easier for Steve to walk away cause they're not his kids.
I don't understand the thing about Kate being allowed to cheat because Jon is ugly. Most of us in this world are not 10s. But we can be 10s to a loving partner. Kate married him and had kids with him. She liked something about him. I don't find either Jon or Steve all that attractive but the men I do like aren't exactly models. That's not the point. If those pictures on RWA were true, the defective detective isn't married to a 10 either. If she likes him, great. If she doesn't, she should be honest instead of cheating.
I don't find either Jon or Steve all that attractive but the men I do like aren't exactly models.

Neither of them do it for me but I can be objective. It's just silly since I don't think either one of them is any more special than the other. They're both about in the same league I think. Reasonably good looking, but not overly so. Neither of them anything spectacular but not ugly either. It's not like she left him for Brad Pitt, please.
I think Ratclaws looks like George Bush.
Steve has been a significant player in this saga for years and
years. I remember first spotting him sitting with them at church,
and then on the plane to the ski trip when TFW did her wonderful impersonation of a 3-year-old having a temper tantrum. If he is
indeed gone, that is a role which won't be easily filled. Deanna
can't realistically be the new Steve - she has a career which
takes her from project to project. I would bet there's already
a Sharknado 3 in the works, and she'll have bigger fish (pun
intended) to fry. And Jamie has a husband and kids, so she
can't just drop everything to guide TFW through an airport.
So that exhausts TFW's inner circle. And she clearly can't,
or won't, function alone. Remember how Steve made a crack
in the Vanity Fair ("I Want Nobu!") article that his job was not
protecting her from the fans, but the fans from her? And she
was not amused. Who in their right mind would want to take
his place?
Aunt Carole said...135
Yes, Aunt Carole, I remember the picture of Steve and a tup girl on the beach at OBX and her head was buried below his belt line and her arms were around his legs. When I saw it, I gasped out loud! Broke my best pearl necklace.
It made me sick! Should of been her FATHER! Her Father would of picked her up and comforted her.

WOW. That witch and those emails to TLC. Hateful, mean, what a witch! Wow, I never thought I would see the day I would read that kate Graveled at trying to convince Jen Stocks to stay at TLC. She apologized to somebody?

Finally! I do believe this is a 4 alarm red alert down at the baaaaarnyard. Who will get the blame for Kate's behavior today? Certainly not Kate, who disturbingly took the time to write about how her 2 year olds were so mean and horrible to her and what she was forced to do to them in return. Jon, the usual suspect? As evidenced yesterday, usually they can blame Jon for all of Kate's unsavory antics, but he was at work when these incidents happened. What to do, what to do? I know! They can blame the state of PA for not providing Kate with her free babysitter. 3..2...1............
Was Deanna responsible for Tara Reid's makeup on Sharknado, 'cause Tara looked really, really bad. I was convinced by my child to watch Sharknado. Have you ever watched something so bad that it mesmerized you? All the time, I'm thinking, how did some of these "famous" actors get talked into doing something as horrible as this?
A quote from the InTouch article "Here's hoping Kate gets some new security soon to keep her and her brood of eight adequately protected from the paparazzi... and her ex-husband John Gosselin."

Why do the kids need protecting from their DAD whom they see every week?
************************************************************************
According to the alleged journal entry, Gosselin, 39, decided to leave little Collin — 2-years-old at the time — in his crib until Jon got home from work because she was scared of how she might react.
“Kate Gosselin said that for the first time she thought she might really lose it and she was glad that she left him in his crib until Jon came home from work,” Hoffman wrote.

I think she got off big time on the 'ol "geeve me yor kamra playyse" so he could delete routine.
Neither of them do it for me but I can be objective
*********************************************
And that's right, to each his own
POS can't seem to get ANYONE interested in her, what does that tell ya?
That whole baking and frosting the cake was such a sham.
*******
This is a great example of how producers craft the story arc of an episode, and how this and every other reality show is anything but.
Problem- Kate wants to tackle making a circus tent cake because she's "can-do Kate' and doesn't do anything small!!
Cue Kate whining about making a cake before she even cracks an egg.
Cue the bird flying into the cake, thus precipitating the need to have a professional cake for the party.
Cue Kate looking forlorn that her cake project just met its demise- gosh darn it, she really tried didn't she, what with 2000 pounds of butter in that butterless frosting that she scooped out of a huge tub into her mixer so that it looks like she made it herself.
Resolution- Viola! The Cake Fairy, like God, always has one ear listening to Katie, and delivers a showpiece of a circus tent Kate, replete with all the tups names.
Ah, all is well in Gosselinland once again.

A quote from the InTouch article "Here's hoping Kate gets some new security soon to keep her and her brood of eight adequately protected from the paparazzi... and her ex-husband John Gosselin."
WHAT THE :F:? ? ? ?
Why do the kids need protecting from their DAD whom they see every week?
&&&&&&&&&
I don't understand why InTouch would even make a statement like that. Aside from the fact that InTouch has always seemed to be Jon friendly, there is no rhyme or reason for such a libelous and irresponsible statement.
NJ gal, the part where Ian jumped over the (bad CGI) flooded street from taxi to shark to taxi, and mark McGrath said ” you know you just literally jumped the shark” ! The giant alligator in the sewer! Kelly Ripa stomping a shark on the set of Live! Al Roker and Matt Lauer having too much fun with their cameo! All the celeb cameos were so fun! I could not stop laughing, there was something funny thru the whole thing.
I can only imagine the comments that will show up on the latest story:
"Oh, my mother hit me with an ax 7 days a week, and I turned out
fine!" Seems they've given up "the diaries are fake" theory.
What cotton candy nonsense will come from Gosselin Manor today?
Tomorrow is August - surely TFW has scored herself a getaway
before school. Although she would never spring for a trip for all
9 of them (as that would surely include paying for a helper to
accompany them), I certainly believe she'd treat herself to a
trip out of her/their savings. Why oh why did Beth teach her
that taking care of herself makes her a better Mommy...

OMG it was the best! And it was so fun watching it while following along on Twitter...it's like watching it with a huge group of people (the whole country it seemed)

Was Deanna responsible for Tara Reid's makeup on Sharknado, 'cause Tara looked really, really bad. I was convinced by my child to watch Sharknado. Have you ever watched something so bad that it mesmerized you? All the time, I'm thinking, how did some of these "famous" actors get talked into doing something as horrible as this?
(((
They embraced the campiness...the first one was a surprise cult hit. It's like Rocky Horror Picture Show. So bad it's brilliant!
From the ROL article:
“Kate got a phone call from the twin’s school and she knew something was wrong. One of the girls had a bloody nose and was hysterical and incoherent and the teacher said she wanted to come home immediately. Kate told her that she would come to get her asap,” he wrote, paraphrasing Gosselin’s journal entry.
PHOTOS: Top Five Reality Families
“After Kate hung up the phone she ran to the mirror and scared herself and she discovered that a shower was in order before she could go to her hysterical child at school.”
That, and one about her ignoring a tup's bellyache til the girl was on the floor vomiting; I don't remember these from the book, were they in there?
Driving into work today I heard a Milli Vanilli song. That made me think, "Kate is the Milli Vanilli of reality TV!
Sharknado is one of those movies that is going to become a cult classic. I hate to say this but when it's available on iTunes I'll probably buy it so I can watch without commercials and catch all those little things that you missed. I read somewhere that stars were actually having their agents call the producers to try to get in the movie.
For some reason I all ways found Jon attractive..Steve meh not so much he's all right I guess.
KK used to be cute-(2009-2011)- but now(2011-present)- she's nothing to brag about,

LOL Her fans are sick they will say "Oh this happened to me as well and I'm okay soooo the 8 must be okay to"
I guess the sheep/fans never realize that what happen to them may NOT be normal either and it's not normal for babies to get beaten by mom.
KK still on the shame-o-meter hahaha.
Sharknado is re-airing Saturday. Now I'm curious!
I don't think Brad Pitt is anything to write home about, either.

I'd say he was far more pretty than handsome in that movie.
That hair!!!!
Can you imagine if that head of hair had a baby with Julia Ormond's head of hair??
But seriously, the cinematography in that move was stunning.
According to Hollywood Gossip "Kate Gosselin and Steve Neild: It's Over!" "....Kate has lost one of the FEW remaining people who can TOLERATE her."

These incidents were in IJWYTK IIIRC.They were written to show how busy Kate was and how hard it was to collect Mady while the tups slept or get to a dr with the logistics of all the kids...about Kate's problems, not the child with bloody nose and bellyache.Didn't read ROL, but they weren't really significant?
Admin -- Yes, I've seen "Legends of the Fall" several times. Great movie, and Pitt can be a good actor, but I still don't think he's all that good looking.
localyocal -- The story about the twin with the bloody nose and the girl with the bellyache (It was M, not one of the tups, though -- and she'd been complaining of pain for ALMOST A MONTH) are in the first book but not the second.
I think Krazy was fighting with Steve during part 1. She looked about to lose it. High-strong, about to cry or something. At the time I wondered what it was. Zorro tail feathers were very short and in part 2 zorro's tail had grown out and Krazy was back to her aggressively arrogant self.
Now, I wonder if part 2 had to be shot much later because her and Stevie were having a bad day.
She always paints herself into a victim role....poor meme role, then superwoman...back and forth.

Thanks! I read the first one but it's been a while. I read it when it was released
I can't wait to hear what went down when Steve gave his notice. Interesting that TLC blurred him out, even in the part 1 where they used old clips. It could have gone well, ya think?

I think they're significant it shows how self-absorbed she is in exclusion to the needs of her kids. Her kid had a bloody nose and she decided to take a shower before going to get her. Reminds me of the furniture store constipation episode.
Actually now is a good time to sell a Kate horror story because she is in the tabloids every day and online. Everyone will continue to pile on.
&&&
There's a lot of factors at play in determining whether a tabloid story is credible. Many tabloid stories do turn out to be credible, that's been proven. You can't discount it based on that alone.
However I think it is a very fair point that right now she's been in the tabloids a lot which could very well encourage a few insiders to make a few extra bucks to come forward. I think that was especially the case with the nanny or two that stepped up this past month--I think once they saw everyone was spilling it they could feel comfortable spilling it too. The timing of things does certainly play a role in credibility.
Brad Pitt was SO hot in Legends of the Fall...and I loved Milli Vanilli...(hanging head in shame)... =D
Another reason Steve might have been blurred out is because he's no longer employed/contracted by TLC.
Jon was a cutie in high school!
Steve has taken on this "silver fox" moniker, all manufactured by the tabloids.
Eh, he's somewhat handsome, but the small hands... I don't know... might indicate other diminutive features....
(am I right, ladies?!)
+++++++++++++
I don't know, Tucker's. I didn't know Jon in high school.
Oh, you mean about the hands...!!! LOL!
"Radar reached out to Kate’s camp but they declined to comment."

Does Kate have any camp left? Who is in there? Jamie, Deanna...anyone else?
The sheep are spinning this as they've all been spanked and more kids should be whipped, etc. etc. etc. What they are not addressing is the fact that is was a two-year-old child, not capable of knowing why he was being hit or slammed into his crib, and that Kate was clearly out of control and was afraid she might hurt a child. It shoots down their theory of the great infallible Kate, but they will deflect, deflect, deflect.
I meant to say it could NOT have gone well when Steve said he was through. She must have had a total meltdown.

The article mentioned the alleged cozying up at the Demi Lovato concert (no picture NO proof!!!!) I had forgotten about that. Why do I have a feeling that Kate won't give up without a fight? No nvr means no to her.
Yes indeed, who does Radar reach out to from Kate's camp for a response? Must be whoever is the "source" Kate uses.
A fictional conversation with TFW's "camp":
Radar: Hello, do you care to comment about our latest story
on Kate Gosselin?
Deanna: Hold on a sec - we need some more concealer for
Ian Zieiring - stat! Oh, I'm sorry, what was your question?
Radar: Uh, never mind...

My oh my this summer living is suiting us just fine! Made pbutter banana muffins&served them at 11:45 (breakfast#2)!Now on2 summer sch work
Kate. try living in the real world, where real moms get up early every morning, get their kids off to daycare or day camp, That's where they have their "second breakfast," commonly known as lunch. After working eight hours, Moms pick up their kids, come home and do the cooking, cleaning, laundry, getting their kids to bed...only to wake up and do the same thing the next morning. "Summer living" isn't much different than winter living if you're an employed Mom. But you wouldn't know that, would you?
She makes me ill.
Brad Pitt was SO hot in Legends of the Fall...and I loved Milli Vanilli...(hanging head in shame)... =D
*****
To me, Brad Pitt always looks dirty, I just want to grab him and put him the shower and clean him up. I know, I know...that's probably a lot of ladies' fantasy!
There was one article online recently that listed some of the "dirtiest" unhygienic (is that a word?) celebs and Pitt was among them! I can't remember what body part he didn't wash, though! :)
All of the sheeple who are saying, "Well, I was spanked and turned out just fine," just don't get it. It also used to be perfectly acceptable for a pregnant mother to smoke cigarettes. However, like w/ the smoking issue, new information on how a child's brain develops has given us facts that spanking/hitting does have long-term negative effects on the child, which is why corporal punishment is illegal is many countries. There are many other ways to effectively discipline (which means "to teach" not "to punish"), but many parents just want the short term, quick, easy fix.
Or as that wonderful blog writer that Zig person says, "defleck"

LOL!! Isn't she the one who still hasn't figured out how to make a noun plural? "Hater's still hate..."
Speaking of the sheep. Who will be the first to say that Robert needs mortgage money again? I wonder if they have gotten it through their dense little heads that the tabs can buy the book for $8.88?
I've never liked Brad Pitt and I've never seen Legends of the Fall.
I would think at 11:45 you would be serving lunch rather than a SECOND breakfast. Who is she fooling? That was breakfast.
So which is it? You're drained because you rarely get downtime or summer living suits you just fine?

She can't keep up with her twitter lies.
KK was horrible to her kids and Jon and her family and countless people she just getting her karam and she deserve it.
Kate's behavior is to take and take and not think of others.
I keep thinking that Kate kept intruding in Steve's "other" life more and more as time went by. Perhaps she was calling Steve's house at all hours. Calling when she was drunk and weepy. Bending his ear on things that had nothing to do with bodyguard stuff. And then Gina had said that's enough. Then gave Steve an ultimatum get that woman our of lives or you'll get be out of our lives.
Besides the family issue Steve's bodyguard reputation is toast because of Kate. Not saying that Steve didn't have a hand in this disaster because he did. But now he has to rebuild his creditability. Because TLC who wants to hire him? I sure wouldn't want him because he crossed the line between bodyguard and ??? Still not sure what he is other than a handler.
This name dropping of recipes makes me think she is still pining for a cooking show. If she's going to tweet what she serves, then it would make sense to post the recipes on her web site because there are always a few sheeple who want the recipe. I never believe anything she tweets any more. If she made muffins, it involved removing them from the freezer.
I'm really Twitter-challenged (never had it, never will), but I am curious. When you have a Tweeter who does mostly re-tweets for celebrities, is that a BOT? Do they do this out of the goodness of their heart, or are they paid by some PR entity for doing this? I checked the TL for this person, and these are almost all re-tweets for celebs and/or various commercial websites. If they aren't paid, then what is in it for them?

Why does @radar_online always stalk @KimKardashian or @Kateplusmy8 ? Must be a slow News day!?!
'Summer schoolwork?' Most kids read and report on books but actual work is usually remedial, isn't it? Likely just more exaggeration.

The only time Brad Pitt "did it" for me was when he was in Thelma & Louise.
------------------------
I'm the opposite. I thought Thelma and Louise was a great movie that was almost spoiled by the presence of Brad Pitt. I couldn't see what they saw in him, at all.
It's interesting how divided opinions are on Brad's appeal or lack thereof.
