Beth's relationships with the children, whom she says she helped watch
for "a week at a time," was always very loving and warm. In this screen capture
from Gosselins Go Sking, Beth tells Aaden that she has to go home early for her
daughter's birthday but that she would like to take Aaden with her in her suitcase.
Aaden responds with enthusiastic and adorable nodding.

- Beth wrote Multiple Blessings "absolutely" all herself, and she and Kate had agreed to a 50-50 split of the proceeds. Kate later tried to take back the deal and cut her down to at least a third. Beth had a lawyer and made sure she got her original cut.
- Beth's friendship with Kate ended after Kate cut Beth off from the promotion of Multiple Blessings (despite tweets from Kate in 2011 claiming Beth is still in her life). Beth confirms that is a lie, that she hasn't spoken to Kate "for years and years."
- Beth tried to keep up the relationship with Jon afterward, but it got "messy."
- Beth "purposely" has not commented for years.
Meanwhile, when asked if what Beth is saying is true, Kate responded on twitter: "no." Give it up, Kate.

«Oldest ‹Older 401 – 600 of 1189 Newer› Newest»Why did Beth leave the kids?
Well because what could she do for them? Honestly. She and Kate were so fractured at that point anyway, what was she supposed to do? Was she supposed to take on the burden of protector and shield? How could she possibly be there all the time and take on such a role? Wouldn't this just antagonize Kate more?
God bless those kids but I'm sorry at a certain point, your own children, husband and life, and finances, come first. She should NOT be ashamed about putting her family first.
Wasn't it just a few weeks ago that TFW was talking about how rare
it was that she had only 2 kids at home with her? And, I don't have
the tweet in front of me (maybe someone can find it), but she said
how hard it is when you never get a break? Poor Schmoopy,
singin' the blues.
But last night she only had 2 kids with her. Again. And she
wasn't out running errands, or taking them to the orthodontist.
She was at a concert, having fun, "4getting adult issues." And if
Steve was there, then he did all the driving, so TFW just got to sit
back and relax. Sounds like a break to me, and a pretty upscale
one at that.
Twitter has been a powerful tool in the crumbling of her image, and
she's still not smart enough to shut it down.
Going off topic for a minute please..
I am sick and I can't get well becuase I have TV Mesh. I live on the East Coast and there are only a very FEW doctors who can do the reverse surgery, and do it well.
So my daughter calls a doctor in Calif yesterday after she read about his amazing reviews, and made an appointment for me with him in Dec 2014.
We have never flown anywhere, excet one time when she was a baby, and that was just a short trip.
I asked her, how do you think we can do this without knowing what to do? She said we would start asking people for advice on how to book to get to CA and where to stay around the UCLA Medical Center,
I can't walk very far at all, and only a short distance. She and I will have to go at least 3 times, and it will get expensive. Office Visit, the pre tests, and then surgery if accepted.
Please give your honest opinion on any suggestions preparing for the trip, and with us setting us a fund me account. Good or bad idea? (Not asking for money here admin, just opinions and suggestions.) I am concerned about our privacy, and how it may look to others, but I really want to go to get well and get my life back. Honesty is appreciated.
If anyone can help with any suggestions, we would be very greatful. It will be just her and I, and we can't afford a bodyguard :P.
Thank you,
Tina
If the story about Steve-O disassociating himself from TFW does turn out to be a plant, then that was a really idiotic move by TFW's fans.
All contradicting the ROL story does is leave in place the question, "Why is TFW continuing to associate with a married man with family of his own?" TFW still comes off as a criminally opportunistic, psychopathic moron, and Steve-O comes off as a dolt for wanting to continue hanging out with such a nutjob. Either that, or Steve-O has amorality out the wazoo to the point where he can hold his hand out for the easy paycheck while holding his nose with the other one. And all that while keeping one hell of a poker face.
For a plant, it doesn't do much, if anything, to benefit TFW and Steve-O.
On another topic, there are two additional Culture Club songs that can be applied to TFW's universe - "Church of the Poison Mind" and "Do You Really Want to Hurt Me?"
Beth showed up at Kate's door with a agenda - to fulfill her hopes of writing a book.
&&&
Yes I'm sure that's exactly what Beth thought. She thought, as she knocked on the door, this is my meal ticket here, what luck that my church neighbor has had six babies at once! I bet they'll get a T.V. show by the time the kids are toddlers and start making millions and a book deal will follow and I'll be rich I tell ya, rich! Even though I already am rich, one can always get richer, right?
No, that was Kate thinking that. Wrong person.
I don't know why the sheeple can't comprehend that most people who knocked on that door did it because they are good and generous people who saw a family in need and wanted to help. Nothing more, nothing less.
Admin (#12), great description. But you forgot that Beth was
most likely also sporting a Snidely Whiplash mustache, grown
just for the occasion, and twirling the ends - "Muah-ha-HA!"
Oh, and remember, it wasn't "an agenda," it was "a agenda."
That tweet is one of the most agonizingly ill-informed comments
to date from the fan side. They will never get it. Never.
Why should an artist not command the price that the art world determines is fair for their art? Artists are so frequently disrespected and asked to do things for free
*********
They should and they do.
If you've ever been to art festivals, you'll see how much original artwork costs!
We've been collecting from a woman's original oils for many years now, and I can tell you, I'm damn glad we bought larger pieces 8-10 years ago, because her work has gone up and up and up.

Milo's tweets? She is one delusional puppy and as nutty as a fruitcake. (I couldn't resist using the fruitcake analogy since it's being discussed here - LOL!).
---------------
Awww....now you've ruined puppies for me!
Tina- are you sure there are no qualified doctors on the East coast?
The East coast is well known for amazing teaching hospitals.
Have you asked your primary care doctor for a recommendation?
If CA is your best option, then work with your primary care doctor to prepare you for what you'll need. All medications, possibly including meds to reduce your anxiety about (plane) travel, in order to make the trip as stress free as possible.
I don't know anything about setting up Go Fund Me, but have seen it be quite successful.
Good luck.
I've been out of the loop for a while, but I have to comment on Beth. I went through something similar, so maybe I can shed some light.
I had a dear and close friend I'll call C who was in an abusive marriage. In a nutshell, I was the one who got her to admit it was happening (after witnessing black eyes) and who then documented it with photos, dates, times, etc. She had 3 small children and I was terrified for all of them. He was brutal--and let me add that he recently remarried a young woman, had three more small children, and then I suddenly saw her obituary. Yes, I have my suspicions.
I picked C up one night after a terrible beating. She could only whisper in the phone, "Please come." He hated me for it, and I knew it was dangerous to show up over there and to pick her up off the floor and bring her to my home. (Luckily, he'd left her on the floor and gone to bed.)
I gave her and the children a safe haven, helped her to file the police report, stayed with her and took care of the kids while she healed--she could barely walk.
I picked her son up every day after school for a year until she arrived home from work and testified in court on her behalf. My detailed and documented testimony surely tipped the scales in her favor--she won big. And I was afraid of him, too, but I did it anyway.
I took time away from my own family to babysit (even missed a seminar I'd paid for when one of her kids went to the emergency room.) I bought her things she needed but couldn't afford and even asked for and received a little money from my church to give her (plus some of my own). I was happy to do all of it.
When it was all over and the divorce was complete, it was Virginia Pen Mom who? She now acts as if I offended her or did something wrong, sticks her nose in the air when she sees me, won't speak in the grocery store, etc. I have many close and long-term friends. She had only me (and I hear she now has none, like TFW.) I guess my usefulness to her was done. Sound familiar?
At first, I thought it was me. What did I do? How can I make it right? My heart PHYSICALLY hurt. I really loved her and the kids were like my own nieces and nephew. I cried. I felt betrayed. I grieved. I wondered if I wasted my time and how I missed the signs. None of it made any sense to me. It was like a light switch flipped suddenly off with no rhyme or reason.
And then I asked myself, would I do it again? The answer is yes because the children are now young adults and doing pretty well. C married another a-hole, by the way--a raging narcissist, but as far as I know he's not violent.
Finally, after years have passed, I can see her in the grocery store and not speak because I know she won't. If you're me or you're Beth, you don't want thanks. You don't need it. You do, however, expect to be treated with a certain amount of respect because you were a true friend and went above and beyond with no motive except to help a friend.
Oh, and that crack TFW made a few weeks ago about knowing who her true friends were? C did that to me. She would send me a little note and say she'd learned who her TRUE (all caps) friends were. Talk about a dagger in the heart.
The pain was excruciating. Please, if this has never happened to you, don't judge Beth. There is no pain worse than thinking you have a dear friend whom you truly love, and then pulling the knife out of your back.
I imagine, like me, Beth has had enough time pass that she's philosophical about it now and can be somewhat objective. As Admin said, past teenage years, the only women who abandon and abuse their friends this way have serious psychological issues. It takes a little time and clarity to see that.
I feel sure Kate made this comment, knowing the article was coming and hoping Beth would see it:

_________________________________________________
That's not what Beth said AT.ALL - that's the sheeple line.. It was more about the lack of respect and recognition that Beth actually wrote the book.
====================
Not only that, but IMAGINE Beth's shock when she gets a copy of the book and sees Jon's name on the cover! Was it there in the galleys? Or when she saw the printed book for the first time? It doesn't really matter, but just try to picture your "partner" doing this having had NO discussion with you about it. I know I'd have been LIVID.
Yes Tucker. It's a market driven industry and if people don't feel the art is worth what it is priced at, they simply won't pay it and the prices will fall. But if it really is worth 84 dollars people will pay it.
I tend to hit up two or three outdoor art festivals throughout the year and the art goes anywhere from 100 bucks to 700-1000. But nothing is 12 bucks. Nor should it be. This is often their livelihood and it takes a lot of time, energy and talent to make the art that went on the yoga mat you think has no right to cost 84 bucks. It's even worse for photographers, I can't tell you how many times I've been asked to photograph things for free "for the publicity." It's really disrespectful. Most professional photographers have poured mountains of money into their equipment, their training and workshops and other education, not to mention their time and effort. It's not a point and shoot thing. It's art. The good thing is most photographers I talk to refuse to take those jobs, they've really done a good job about taking a stand.

That tweet is one of the most agonizingly ill-informed comments
to date from the fan side. They will never get it. Never.
&&&
They don't get it because apparently they can't fathom that some people just wanted to help this family no agenda attached. Look at Milo and her family that ran off on her in the middle of the night. Her help came with conditions, like you're not allowed to ever leave. They can't just do things without expecting some kind of weird reciprocal relationship. That was not how most of the volunteers who knocked on Kate's door were wired, we know this.
I have twins a few yrs older than Kate's. I would NOT drop them off at a large venue and say 'see ya later'. You can never be too safe these days, and a cell phone is only good if it WORKS, which they sometimes do not in large crowds.
Add to the mix that the G twins are celebrities, and that certainly amps up safety issues. They are only 13.
------
On another note, what happens when the tups are 13-----how can she manage all 6 at once? Will they get the special treatment the twins are getting?
I doubt it.
And one last thought. Single moms piecing and patching don't take their kids to concerts. They worry if there's enough money for groceries and the electricity bill (I guess rich people piece and patch too....pool boys, private school tuition, braces, new cars, concerts).
must be hard. sniff

TLC stinks said... 195
I thought The Enquirer broke the story about Neild quitting and Radar picked it up like all the other internet tabloids.
As far as Kate going to the concert with the twins, that is a huge venue in another state. The girls are only 13. I would not allow my kids that age to go alone either. Having said that, it will be interesting to see when they are older if she allows them any freedom by themselves. Somehow I don't think these girls will be driving at 16.
====================
FYI, 1D is playing Philly next week for two nights, and there appear still to be plenty of tickets available. So what was with the supposed desperation 6 months back about landing tickets? Just the usual solicitation in case someone wanted to step up and supply them to K8 for free? And why drive 2.5 hours when you can see the same show an hour away? Would have been a shorter "assignment" for Steve to be closer to home. Truly, none of this makes sense for a "piecin' and patchin'" mom.
From all accounts, Beth got involved in helping a struggling family, that seemed to share her religious values. She was involved in taking gap are of the children, so that, at the end of the day, they all had received some quality one on one time. She clearly grew to love those children, and it must have broken her heart to walk away.
However, writing a book is hardly hands-on caring for children. So, why on earth would anyone think that she signed on for anything remotely like this, unless they also think that she should have been doing all of TFW's bidding, no matter how ridiculous. Should she have gotten up on the roof and patched it? Painted her house? Done all the grocery shopping? Just because she has money?
Another thought about not leaving the twins alone at the concert
which we haven't considered yet. These kids are famous.
Sure, they're not super recognizable, but if they were alone in
the bathroom together, it is quite possible some kids might
recognize them and maybe try to snap some pictures, or even
tease them. So although I am loathe to admit it, I think having someone accompany them is probably the safest bet.
Tina (re TV mesh): There are commercials on TV here constantly for attorneys who are handling cases such as yours. Have you spoken with an attorney about this? You should look into it, you may well be able to get your surgery paid for if this was a case of faulty product or procedure. Best of luck to you.
Add to the mix that the G twins are celebrities, and that certainly amps up safety issues. They are only 13.
JMO but I doubt if anyone would recognize the twins without Kate and Steve tagging along. They may be "celebrities", but without all the air brushing etc. that was done on the People cover they look like typical teenagers no more special than yours or mine, just one in a thousand at that concert. In a venue that big they'd have to shout "we're the Gosselin twins" to be recognized as such. With that being said, I probably wouldn't let mine go alone.
At least Beth didn't go on a "I have a purse full of bills" tour when Kate tried to screw her out of $50K!
------------------------------------------
No she didn't. And it's a shame she didn't get to go along on the publicity junket. Kate was able to feather her resume with that book and use it as a springboard for other opportunities, using it as recently as the cookbook where HCL's website promotes Kate by writing in part,
"Kate Gosselin is best known for the reality TV shows "Jon & Kate Plus 8" and the more recent "Kate Plus 8." She authored the New York Times bestselling book, Multiple Blessings, as well as the book Eight Little Faces and I Just Want You to Know."
Beth should have been given equal opportunity to parlay the book tour into something more should she have chosen to do so. She was robbed.
Tina,
The medical center may have resources that can help you with housing and transportation to the hospital. If you are low income, you may also qualify for financial aid, or a payment plan.
I would not let Mady and Cara go to a concert in another state alone. Maybeeee and venue in PA, where they are dropped off, but still in this day and age, probably not. Add to that, they are not completely obscure teens. Can you imagine someone intoxicated approaching them and calling Mady a B...., or trashing Kate? I mean that will happen at some point, right or wrong. In this case, I am glad they have an adult with them, even if it is Steve.
I took my daughter to several boy band concerts with her early teen friends and made myself as invisible as possible. Even leaving the seats and standing at the top just outside the arena. Mostly because the squeeling hurt my ears so bad. When they hit the merchandise area I stood back.
BTW, it was tweeted last night that Kate was spotted on the train. Nothing about M/C or Steve. So most likely they didn't use a car service.
Sara
JMO but I doubt if anyone would recognize the twins without Kate and Steve tagging along.
&&&
Agree. It's actually worse that Kate and Steve are there because it gives them context. You immediately recognize them if Kate and Steve are there or even just Kate.
These kids are much older and changing every day. If it's just two 13 year olds in a sea of other 13 year olds, there's no way anyone would recognize them unless told to be looking for them.
Put it this way, have we EVER seen anyone remark about seeing the kids just out with friends or with another parent or on a field trip? Nope. It's not because that doesn't sometimes happen. It's because in that scenario there's no context, leaving them utterly unrecognizable.

BETH made money off the Gosselin children. Lots of $. So her claim that it was never about $ rings very, very hollow. I['m not suggesting that she initially got involved with the thought that she could profit, but the bottom line is that she did NOT walk away before it became about $. The falling out seems to have been ABOUT $.
____________________________
It is no wonder Kate has so much power and people FEAR HER. It is not Kate they really fear but being put under a microscope by the public and accused of every why, what, when and wherefore about why they came forward. It is exactly that that gives her THE POWER. No one wants to be scrutinized by the world. Especially when your intentions were pure. This is exactly why the bible says not to cast your pearls (good intentions) before the swine, else they WILL be trotted down in the ground. I'm speaking highly but not only to you sheeple/swine. I speak to anyone that takes anyone's good intentions and makes them dirty and muddy. Have an opinion but don't make it a fact. That is what the evil intended people, like Kate, count on to keep focus off them and move on to the rest of their evil deeds, hurting EVERYONE in their path, laughing as they go.
You think I'm wrong? look at how this little fiasco about Steve played out. The picture of Her and Steve are walking away from the scene, per say, with all her minions fighting and flailing with words back and forth on who got who and they, K and S enjoying the night. THAT IS HOW SHE FOOLED THE WORLD. Forget the CA, she RULES through fear. The fear that others will look worse for saying anything, AND IT WORKS FOR HER. Look what happened to her sister just recently? She can't be made to look worse than what she is so she'll take everyone else she can get to join her. That way she can say, "like any other mother, person does, so I'm not so bad after all." There it is again, comparing ourselves by ourselves and improving in nothing but joining the crowd.
I just hope that Beth doesn't feel the need to defend anything that was said. She stated what happened and that was it. PERIOD! If anyone wants spin it to sound different, you don't know the details and the intent. It is dangerous, to the ruining of one's character and interrupts one's life to state our opinions as fact. Especially when we weren't intimately involved in what was taking place.
This is what Kate is counting on. She cuts people out of that intimate source of knowledge so she can rely on saying "you don't know, you weren't there", and it works. With all the proof Robert has, the one Holy Grail for Kate is still that intimate bond of "you weren't there" that still gives question when fact is presented. It is then people seem to release any sense of "common sense", raise their hands in defeat or fear of "the hassle" and evil gains power. Maybe there needs to be a book written entitled "The Reality Queen, has she really fallen?" There is a large trail of people still shaking in their boots, afraid to speak. Not because of what Kate will do but what other will, say, believe and destroy of THEIR personal and peaceful life they worked hard to create.
I know that people say that the destroying of the children is the saddest thing to come of this evil fiasco but I say it is the loss of trust that doing of good really means nothing and your good will be evil spoken of. Will I still do good to others? Hummm, absolutely, that's who I am. I know my intent, and I WILL NOT let evil triumph over good. The truth NEVER fails. All will see that in the end. The fall of the Reality Queen? That came long before there was a Reality show to become Queen of.

I have also been through something like this. I think that Beth's comment about society was her attempt to make sense of things, to find an explanation other than that you have been terribly exploited by someone you thought cared and valued them. It's what victims of gas lighting do, because the truth is too horrifying to take in all at once. Over time, she may see it for what it really was.
As far as the plant about Steve, that was an unnamed source, right? Hardly in the same class as a named source interview, of one of the parties actually involved.
Maybe the girls would be recognized, maybe they wouldn't--but the risk is still there.
But 13 is too young to be dropped off at a venue. I'd say 16 would be an okay age to do so, but at that point invite a few of their friends to go--there's safety in numbers.

Another topic:
Kate says college is paid for. That means braces and private school is paid for.
So how much money is that????
How can she have socked away that much money for those expenses and still be living the life of the 1%?
jcb
I wouldn't worry too much about Kate "ruining" others now who speak. The only voice Kate now has is "twitter" and her 6 really sad sheeple, which well, is not much of a voice. She doesn't have a huge corporation (Discovery) backing her now, she's on her own. She's done....
And now the concert Kate takes the twins to.... Blah
Cara- totally silent and Mady probably demanding things to film. Really not that hard to figure out. And of course, we must have a body guard present.
I am glad the twins are getting to go to concerts, etc. spend time with their friends, but I find this all fluff. The older kids get to do so many things, but the tups, not so much.
What the hell is she waiting for? Or she does not sign them up for activities in case TLC or someone else wants to film?
Clearly, the six tups who made her millions should have some fun activities for themselves. And spend time with their father, you know... Jon.. They apparently are not rebelling YET, but they clearly need to do activities beyond Ft. Knox, although Kate still has not allowed this AFTER 10 YEARS. Lazy woman that she is... All about the kids, I think not. How about working out a schedule with other mothers, or are you too good for that? Only reason Cara does soccer is because Jon was still in the picture then. Does she NOT understand how healthy it might be for her tups to interact outside of the compound? Probably afraid of them missing any possible future filming. AIN'T GONNA HAPPEN. What a lazy selfish woman she is. She does not have a job and her job should be those six who made her a shitload of money.
Another picture of Kate, Steve and the twins.

You say Kate was spotted on a train. Here's what they did:
EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. - The parents of most young girls would say all roads lead to MetLife Stadium, where the popular boy band One Direction will perform two concerts.
New Jersey Transit is offering rail service to the Meadowlands Sports Complex for the shows on Monday and Tuesday evening.
Service will begin at 5 p.m. from Secaucus. The last train from the sports complex will not depart any earlier that 12:40 a.m.
Passengers are urged to purchase round trip tickets to the Meadowlands Sports Complex from their originating stations.

https://twitter.com/sere_lynn/status/497028981888385024/photo/1
Yep, no question about it. It's Steve.
I think Beth's comment about society was in the same vein as Jodi and Kevin's when they spoke publicly around the time of the divorce filing. They saw the damage that was about to unfold and knowing Kate and Jon (at that time) were not going to pull the TLC plug, they plead for viewers not to watch. As it turned out, that episode garnered huge numbers, probably emboldening Kate and TLC while devastating people like Jodi, Kevin and Beth.
Virginia Pen Mom,
Great to see you post. Your story is heartbreaking. I am so sorry. It is very rare to hear about someone who talks the talk, but walked it with army boots on! My, goodness, how ungrateful she is. How could she overlook who picked up her child from school for a year? Testifying for her and help lock that animal up? Miss a paid for seminar to take her child to the ER?
It is her loss and her stupidity of cutting you out of her life. What a wonderful friend who sacrificed. You were the one who went way beyond the call of friend duty and loyalty. Dollars to donuts when you ever see the kids that you took care of, they will remember you and hug you and thank you. She should be truly ashamed.
The Lord saw and heard everything you did for her and her children. He will or may have already blessed you beyond belief. He promises in His Word.
And the King will answer them, ‘Truly, I say to you, as you did it to one of the least of these my brothers, you did it to me.’ Matthew 25:35-40
Ooh, Cara does not look too happy! No one seems to be bothering them or looking at them; no riot ensued.
What's up with Steve and the twins wearing those matching bracelets?
BTW, it was tweeted last night that Kate was spotted on the train. Nothing about M/C or Steve. So most likely they didn't use a car service.
------------------------
I didn't see any tweets about Kate being on a train. One of the tweeters who saw Kate in the bathroom at the stadium tweeted much earlier that she herself was on a train, but made no mention of Kate. The same tweeter said after the concert she was driving home.
So just because she had been on a train, and then later saw Kate at the concert, doesn't mean that Kate took a train to the concert.
Awww....now you've ruined puppies for me!

I almost choked on my fruitcake...nah, it was really a chocolate chip mini-muffin! Too funny.
Tina,
I assure you their are very qualified doctor's on the East Coast doing this kind of surgery.
I don't mean to be rude in any way, but this is something surely you and your family and doctor can research and not bring to a Gosselin blog, especially the Go Fund Me. I realize you said you were not asking for money, but I find that whole Go Fund Me very much like a hand out for most things I have seen.
And getting through an airport, if you require assistance there are wheelchairs.
A Nurse
Well Cara looks her usual happy self.
She looks a little too made up for an event like that with the high heels and backless top.
=================
She wasn't wearing a "backless" top. That was her hair that was down her back.
I had 2 disappoint me, not counting the way my ex left me and my ds's, but nothing like Beth or Virginia Pen Mom. A young lady and I were members of a church where we were the only divorced, single moms whose ex's wouldn't pay child support. It was a great church to go to, the people are great.
One day, I found out that my friend really needed groceries one afternoon. I got a banana box, love those BB's, and went through my things and filled her up a box and dropped it off after class that night. She came out to the car and she was like. Ump. Like it bothered her. I was so excited to help her, but we got it in the house and she started unloading it, so I said, Got to go, I will talk to you later. She just seemed cold and odd toward me ever since.
I even sent my mds to mow her yard because she had hurt her back really bad, and I think had the flu on top of that and her yard needed mowing bad. I had talked to her on the phone and she said that her son who was way to young and small to mow the yard. He could barely push the mower.
When I told mds about it, he said what's her phone number. After being in school all day and football practice in the heat of the day, he went over and mowed it. He was blessed so much for mowing her yard. He even gave the little boy a football and played toss. He even called one of his best friends who lived right down the street to borrow his riding lawn mower and C rode it to her house.
Maybe Mady did demand this as her price for filming. Maybe Cara's price was being on that Lacrosse team.
==============
Don't forget, Kate took the twins to see Demi Lovato in March. Cara said that Demi Lovato was her favorite singer.
Kate using their "currency' not only involves taking things away, it also involves bribing them to get them to do things that she wants.
Since TFW was grifting 1D tickets months ago, it is possible she convinced Rat Claws to go along on this trip because it was already planned. For his wife's sake, I do hope that he has told TFW that he won't provide "security" for her any more and is just honoring his prior commitments.
As far as the kids being famous, if TFW wouldn't take every opportunity to put them in front of the cameras nobody would know who they are. The twins look nothing like they did when the show was cancelled three years ago. They would just be two anonymous girls in a crowd of other teens.
Come on Kate, let the kids have their privacy and enjoy what is left of their childhood.
The twins get to go to concerts; the tups only see movies on TV at home on the stripe of the rug with popcorn and a boring old 'surprise." #yum#fun#typicaltradition
Also, I was the one who had 3 boys and a van who picked up her sons from practices and gave many many boys rides home. During the summer, they would have the free lunch program and I would get my 3 and any other boys who wanted to go and I would take as many as 7 boys at a time to get them fed and drive and drop them off at the rec center pool. They loved it.
A lot of the time they would serve a tossed salad. All of the boys didn't want to eat it the first day, so after that I would take a zip-lock bag and they wanted me to get, they didn't want to waste it either. I would have plenty for a big salad when I got back home. It was for any kids up to 18. There was a young man who drove himself there and went in and ate by himself. I thought it was wonderful. Sometimes I would get me a plate for 2 dollars. Then I would go pick them up from the pool and take them home.
I remember particularly one day it was clouding up coming up a storm and I saw one of the boys friends, the van had one seat left! And I stopped and the boys said, hey, you need a ride, he was soaking wet and it had started lightning. He jumped in and by the time we got him to his house, it was bad. I wished right then if my boys were in that situation, some parent I know would do the same for him.
I will never forget seeing one boy at graduation who grad with my mds and he came up to me and hugged me and said Ms. So and So, smiling so big and said I remember you picking me up taking all of us to the school summer lunches and going to the pool and he grabbed me and hugged me. He was so thankful.
It really got to me because of the ACKNOWLEDGEMENT! I know what you did for me, I respect you and I appreciate it so much. That is such a good feeling to know you were appreciated for doing for them and I would yes, done it again, absolutely.
I find the seating arrangement curious. When my husband and I took our kids to events, they sat in the middle and we sat at either end.
Thoughts?
PJ
Thoughts? Steve was there as Kate's "companion". Cara looked bored and unhappy, as usual, poor child.
You know, I don't think Beth gives a flying flip about what the sheeple say about her. I really doubt she would even bother to read anything they write, because really, what does it matter? She has a very long, solid marriage, great kids, and is very highly regarded in her community. Even people (viewers)who have never met her admire her for the selflessness and class she exudes. Can you imagine her being bothered by something a crackpot like Milo says? The very idea is laughable.She will emerge from this unscathed, while Kate's reputation keeps getting worse and worse.
Milo and her cronies are just being haters, lashing out at a hard-working, loving mother of 4. Congratulations, Milo. you are now officially a hater.
Please forgive me. One more.
My good friend, K, had about 50+ stories that she wanted to self publish. I had a free trial of Microsoft Office and I can type really good, she couldn't at all and I offered to type them all up for her. Emailed them to her husband at his work and he would print them out. Actually I am in 3 of the stories in the book.
I didn't ask her for payment because it gave me something to do and it is a Christian book called Amazing Moments with the Savior by K. B.
She sent me a brochure about something and included a 20 check. I was stunned. I thought it was really nice. I had worked hours on the typing but I am pretty fast so I was really appreciative of the money, even though I didn't ask for it.
Well, the book came out. She didn't give me one. I figured she would. But I went to Amazon and read the looksee and out of all the acknowledgments, I was not listed. That was a big disappointment. Even I am in 3 of the stories in the book, no recognition for the typer who typed basically the manuscript? I couldn't afford the book, but some guy from Minnesota wrote her a huge letter telling her his problems and she immediately sent him a book. I am glad she did, but that hurt. About a year and a half later, she finally sent me one. I kinda feel bad about not being acknowledged with the typing credits but I am in 3 of the stories. I guess good goes along the bad. lol
I have tried to Novel Rank the book to see how many sales she's had but haven't been able to.

No disrespect but this is how rumors get started. Beth never said anything close to that. Sometimes a duck is just a duck. Or something. lol

That's why I prefaced it by saying *just speculating* :)
I hope that's not what happened and you are correct that Beth never said that.
I certainly don't want to be the one to start a rumor going around that Kate Gosselin is mean to her kids.
Can you imagine her being bothered by something a crackpot like Milo says? The very idea is laughable.She will emerge from this unscathed, while Kate's reputation keeps getting worse and worse.
*******
Oh, I agree- I just hope Beth, Bob, and their family do not get hate mail from Kate's crazy crusaders.
I've not doubt Beth is not seeking to research reaction to her statements.
C has said on more than one occasion that she's does not like 1D. Demi Lovato floats her boat. Ergo, C is not super excited.
Yep, it's not Kate's M.O. to ride a train. I do think that it was just the tweeter who was on a train.
I don't think anything about the seating arrangement other than Kate isn't going to give up sitting next to Steve. Look at her body language.
I don't think this was some promise Steve made and the concert was an exception. He never left. The tabloids were misled.
And Cara always looks sad these days. She could use some help in getting over her sadness and shyness. I did not like it in the special during the Cara, Mady and Kate couch interview when Mady and Kate ganged up on Cara for not speaking. I don't know why Kate's mug was in that couch interview anyway. Cara did fine when it was just her and Mady. She's comfortable around her sister but not around her mother.

If the story about Steve-O disassociating himself from TFW does turn out to be a plant, then that was a really idiotic move by TFW's fans.
All contradicting the ROL story does is leave in place the question, "Why is TFW continuing to associate with a married man with family of his own?" TFW still comes off as a criminally opportunistic, psychopathic moron, and Steve-O comes off as a dolt for wanting to continue hanging out with such a nutjob. Either that, or Steve-O has amorality out the wazoo to the point where he can hold his hand out for the easy paycheck while holding his nose with the other one. And all that while keeping one hell of a poker face.
For a plant, it doesn't do much, if anything, to benefit TFW and Steve-O.
&&&&&&&&&&&&&
Lol, I totally agree!
This was an original National Enquirer story that Radar picked up. The sheeple act like Amber Goodhand wrote it. Their haughty, neener, neener attitude cracks me up! See haterz, Kate IS still galavanting with a man she has to pay for his services and who is making a fool of himself and his family!! We showed you alright!! Ok, sheeple, match point. Kate is almost 40 years old. She is still unable to appear in public without her wussy boobyguard to protect her from teen girls and their mothers who might look at her or call her a name.
She's made up because she's on a date. Gotta show off that cleavage from those boobs Steve picked out.

"Uncle" Steve? Just because Kate called a family friend "Uncle Steve"(who we assumed was Steve) in her cookbook, Milo feels she can use the term now in relation to Steve?
Reminds me of a friend I once had who had her children refer to her boyfriend as "uncle". Is that what you're saying, Milo?

Do you think there is a part of Kate that is just simply a mother who loves that her twins are now at the age that she can spend quality time with them laughing and being entertained by them?
_______________________________
I wish that were so, and it might not be out of the realm of possibility, but I have my doubts that her motivation is solely lovingly maternal and sincere simply because she has never appeared to really enjoy being around her kids.
The one thing we know for certain about TFW is that she always has an ulterior motive in everything she does - and that is to gain something in return for herself. In doing special things with and for the twins, she gains control and power. These are examples of the return she gets on her investment:
"See what I can give you that your father can't."
"If you don't go along with what I want, I will no longer reward you."
"How can you act that way after all I've done for you?"
"I feel so young and cool hanging out with my teens."
"Everyone will see me here and think I am a great mom."
I know I sound cynical, but her past actions have proven to be a pretty good indicator of how she thinks. Everything she does is calculated; everything she does is planned so she can, at some point, call in her chits.
Oh, my, Amber Ryland (from ROL) tweeted the person who posted the picture of Kate, Steve, and the twins and asked her to contact her (Amber) to talk about what she saw. Amber's another one who's not going to let herself be bullied into submission by the sheeple (AKA Beth haters). Way to go, Amber!
I noticed on the twitter account of the person that took that last photo that Amber from ROL contacted her to "talk". Maybe ROL is going to do a follow-up on the whole Steve thing.

Anonymous - so sorry about your pain. I have had to travel out of state for a particular surgery on several occasions, so some suggestions:
1. The office of the doctor you are planning to see should have a lot of information for you- directions, getting around the campus, possibly even accommodation suggestions. Make sure you know what doc expects from you for first consultation. If accepted ask if you can have pre-surgical workups down at home with results sent. Make sure you understand prep procedures.
2. Ask doc's office about financing - does he/she require payment upfront or will they work with insurance. Do the same with the hospital where he/she will be doing the surgery.
2. When booking your flight use the on-line sites. Some great deals are available. Same for hotels in your budget. You can get deals for a rental car., package deals if you put flight/hotel/rental car together.
3. Getting around an airport is not difficult. Plenty of people on hand to guide and direct you. Along with a wheelchair, if necessary, they'll pre-board you first. Even so, travel is stressful.
4. Consult an attorney. It usually free. You may have a case. There may be doctors they would recommend for the reversal procedure. Perhaps even closer to home.
Good luck. Do your homework and prepare.

Cara did fine when it was just her and Mady. She's comfortable around her sister but not around her mother.
I noticed that too. Maybe she's intimidated by her overbearing mother.
Uh oh, maybe Amber R. from Radar realized she got catfished.
Tina, do you have health insurance? If so, your health provider should be able to refer you to a surgeon who can do the corrective surgery and be covered by your plan. If you want to go outside of your plan coverage, you could call one of the law firms who are handling these TV mesh lawsuits and perhaps they can give you a list of doctors who do corrective surgery, closer to your home.
As to GoFundMe - I recently did one for my son, who was selected to participate in a medical conference in Washington DC. But then you would need to post your GoFundMe page to all your Facebook friends, etc. So I just canceled the page and we're holding a garage sale, and selling off some baseball memorabilia to fund the trip instead. There are so many of those fundraising pages, that unless you have a lot of FB friends with money to donate, yours will most likely get lost in the shuffle.
I hope you can find a physician that is covered by your health plan, and is closer to home.
As to Rat Claws attending a concert with Kate and the twins: So my questions are "did he attend as Kate's date/friend?" or "was he paid to attend?" Obviously, we can't have any way of knowing the answers. My own personal belief is that he was paid to attend, because TFW does seem fairly unable to navigate the real world on her own.
Either way, the two of them look bad. Either she's dating a married man, or she's so paranoid that she thinks she needs security at a teenybopper concert.
For Tina...
Maybe this might give you some info re. legal rights/attorney for TV Mesh. Good luck to you and hope for a speedy recovery and healing.

How in the name of all that's holy could Milo possibly know this? Did Kate tell her, and she believes everything that Kate says?
If I had someone like Milo who thought she was in my life, I'd put an end to that pretty darn fast. Why does Kate allow her to continue to be a spokesperson for her? I just don't get it.
I agree the seating arrangement at the concert was odd. As a bodyguard, Steve should have been on one end, and Kate , the other *adult,* at the opposite side of her precious children.
As far as this "thing" with Kate and Steve goes I don't think it's a romantic thing. He is never seen with Kate at the girls sporting events nor does he go with her when she is out and about shopping and what not. I am sure that if it was romantic some of the locals would have seen them out together doing normal every day things that most couples do together.
I think Kate just hired him for 'security' at this concert.I have never believed there was any committed relationship or even any physical attraction.I guess you could call them friends. JMO. I can see why others think differently, but I just can't see any man being attracted to a cold fish like Kate. Sure, she looks like a Barbie Doll, but it's just 'plastic deep.'
FYI, 1D is playing Philly next week for two nights, and there appear still to be plenty of tickets available. So what was with the supposed desperation 6 months back about landing tickets?
-------
Perhaps when she bought the NJ tickets, the Philly shows hadn't yet been listed. It happens.

Milo's tenacity and obsessive need to promote Kate's agenda matches only Kate's tenacity and obsessive need to promote Kate's agenda.
Over the years the dh and I have taken our children and their friends to concerts and shows. I would not let them go alone even to a local club until they were about 17 or 18. I liked some of the groups myself! Some others.. Well, that's why the Norva and the National in Richmond have nice bars away from the stage where parental units can enjoy themselves in a relaxing atmosphere! It's a nice bonding experience to go to a concert with your kids. So I can understand TFMJG going with the twins. not sure I understand why Purse Boy is along, unless he really likes 1D also

"Despite In Touch Weekly claiming that Neild was given a sort of ultimatum by his wife (basically telling him to quit working for Kate or else), it seems as though Neild was just ready to take his career to another level."

I doubt if they'd get it on in public.
I think there have been stories of them dining together in various places. Joe’s Stone Crab in Chicago comes immediately to mind. ha.
But I don't want to start any rumors about the two of them.
Tina, there are physicians on the East Coast who do this type of surgery and so it well. Please research it more. There are also attorneys who handle cases such as this. You might want to look into that, also. I understand that your first concern is getting well, but I'd seriously consider seeking advice from an attorney as to whether you have a case with merit. Good luck.
ROL has the story up.
I have to side with Kate on accompanying the twins to the concert. I have teenagers, and I would not allow them to attend a concert without adult supervision. The venues are so big and crowded, and there are so many exits. Bad things can (and do) happen to young people who are left to their own devices in situations like that. Especially when it's not even in their home state. It's best to be cautious.
ROL now has the story about Kate and Steve at the concert.
http://radaronline.com/exclusives/2014/08/kate-gosselin-steve-neild-together-one-direction-concert/
Nothing earthshaking. An excerpt:
"According to the insider, Neild is still trying to patch things up with his family before his marriage crumbles away, but he remains friends with the Gosselins.
“Steve’s still not working for Kate again. It’s over. But they’re still friends,” a source told Radar.
“But for years Steve has been the only consistent man in the Gosselin children’s lives, so they love him and like when he’s around.”
In March Neild and Gosselin were spotted at another concert with Mady and Cara — a Demi Lovato show in Virginia where eyewitnesses said the two were being lovey dovey.
No signs of affection reported at Tuesday night’s One Direction show between the two."
So the "insider" says they're "just friends". Sounds like Milo or Marie is that insider.
She was a "cold fish" to Jon. Doesn't mean she's a cold fish to Steve. I think she is 100% infatuated with him. He may not return the affection and he may be all business, but he's the ONLY man she's attached herself to for years. Remember, she's a "masterminder" and if she wants something, nothing gets in her way. Don't be surprised if they have been having a secret affair for years (at least in HER mind).
Who is that INSIDER?
Realitytvkids.com (Administrator) said...(19)
"They don't get it because apparently they can't fathom that some people just wanted to help this family no agenda attached."
*****************************************************
They can't fathom it because they themselves have an agenda, a very clear, albeit twisted, one...
...association with a pseudo celebrity.
It's clear that the "reality" (pun intended) of the situation has no bearing on their delusions of being Kate's defenders and protectors.
The fact that they can defend this woman when all evidence points to her being a manipulating, lying, child exploiting, abusive, fame seeker only proves the point.
We've been saying all along these sheep don't care about the kids, that much is clear. What's becoming ever clearer is that they don't really care about Kate either.
What they care about is their own positions in the hierarchy of their delusional relationships with her.
I liken it to being a member of the court of a tyrant. They feign they have their leader's interest at heart when all they really are doing is protecting their own standing.
You would think that if they cared as much about Kate as they claim they would tell her to close down her twitter, get therapy and just take care of her kids.
But how would that benefit them? It wouldn't, would it? If Kate disappeared from the public forum well then, so would they.
Awww damn, I just made myself feel sorry for Kate. (No worries, she'll tweet something obnoxious and self-serving soon enough and it'll go away.)
Oh, OK. Got it. He's hoping to patch things up with his family by going to a concert with the source of the problem. What married man goes out with a single gal pal and her kids?
Hmm. Kate would like nothing better than to have Steve's marriage "crumble away". Perhaps she put pressure on him to go to the concert knowing that Gina would not like it?
This comment on Radar hit the nail on the head:
I don't know how anybody with an ounce of common sense could think that the way to work on a crumbling marriage is to go to a concert with another woman. This man has been making a fool out of his wife (and hurting his kids) for years and it looks like he has no problem in continuing to do so. As far as Kate goes, I don't think it bothers her one little bit that she is the other woman. As long as Kate gets what she wants who cares who gets hurt along the way.
The funny thing is that Amber wouldn't have had a story to write about Kate and Steve at the concert, if the sheeple hadn't attacked her about lying that Steve and Kate had broken up. They basically gave Amber the story on a "golden" platter by tweeting her the pictures of them at the concert.
I wonder if any of them will demand payment from ROL?
Remember that reporter from the Harrisburg Patriot-News that broke the big story about Sandusky due to her peristance and digging? She was a small reporter that was very brave to take on the Mighty Penn State. I could see this Amber being the same way - if she is tenacious enough she could really break open the Kate story - unless no one really cares anymore. I don't have a twitter account or else I would say that to her. Perhaps she already realizes that she might be onto something.
"According to the insider, Neild is still trying to patch things up with his family before his marriage crumbles away, but he remains friends with the Gosselins.
“Steve’s still not working for Kate again. It’s over. But they’re still friends,” a source told Radar.
“But for years Steve has been the only consistent man in the Gosselin children’s lives, so they love him and like when he’s around.”
********
This makes no sense at all.
If I laid down the law to my husband/man and said "it's either her or me", there would be no going to a concert, Las Vegas, run, whatever.
Just like Beth, whom the children loved, he is not their parent or guardian or responsibility, and he has a family of his own.
That said, does it seem like something is bubbling to the surface??

Effie is a real journalist? That is funny. Hint, Marie, a real journalist does not refer to themselves as a legendary writer. She does not do any investigating, she just recycles information from other sources. On Gather, all she did was rewrite TFW's tweets.
In Sheeple lingo, a real journalist is someone who only writes flattering stories about TFW.
An insider exclusively tells Radar the two are still “broken up” but remain friends,
The article is referring to TFW and Steve, being broken up.
I don't think that sounds like how one would describe an employer/employee how have decided to no longer do business with each other.
It sounds more like how you'd describe a romantic couple.
I have to side with Kate on accompanying the twins to the concert. I have teenagers, and I would not allow them to attend a concert without adult supervision. The venues are so big and crowded, and there are so many exits. Bad things can (and do) happen to young people who are left to their own devices in situations like that. Especially when it's not even in their home state. It's best to be cautious.
----------
I agree. I've been to that venue. Never in a million years would I allow a young teen to go there without an adult present. I wouldn't even let them alone in their seats while I ventured to the bathroom or for a snack. Throw in the fact that someone just might recognize them would make me even more hesitant about letting them alone. In fact, I'd even have a problem letting a 16-year-old attend a concert without adult supervision. But that's just me.
Notice how the "insider" also makes a subtle dig at Jon:
“But for years Steve has been the only consistent man in the Gosselin children’s lives, so they love him and like when he’s around.”
Definitely sounds like what a sheeple would say. Especially after Milo's tweet from last night about "Uncle Steve".
This "insider" makes contradictory statements.
An insider exclusively tells Radar the two are still “broken up” but remain friends, despite trying to cut off all communication, “they will always have a connection.”
Doesn't seem like they're trying to cut off communication if he goes to a concert with them. And if he's working on his "crumbling" marriage, why didn't Gina go to the concert with them. Isn't she(according to Milo) a close friend too?
What wife is going to say, oh ok, you go to that concert with your lady friend and her two kids, I don't mind. (And have dinner, and stay overnight?)
If they're all truly family friends, wouldn't it be.... why don't our two families go together. Or TFW and *Gina* go with the kids.
TFW doesn't have *anyone* else who could accompany her? She's gotta take some other woman's husband? Out of all the friends she has, only Steve is available to escort her to this concert?
But for years Steve has been the only consistent man in the Gosselin children’s lives,
But....what about the crew daddies???? I thought they were consistent.
The same men all these years, coming to the Gosselin house on their own time, just to play with the kiddies.
You know, those crew daddies that the kids screamed with glee about because they were so happy to see them every time.
Kate's attire leaves much to be desired, but that is not a backless halter top. It's her long blond hair that is hanging down her back. It'd hate to do those stadium seats in those heels, though!
Well, this just chaps my hide!
“But for years Steve has been the only consistent man in the Gosselin children’s lives, so they love him and like when he’s around.”
It's pretty apparent that this "insider" is someone from Kate's camp. I'm glad Jon has been keeping quiet, but if I were him, there is no way I would let a statement like that go unaddressed.

I need to increase the font size on my screen. I read that as cod fish.
Anyway I agree. They might never have slept together and the seven-year anticipation of sleeping together is what keeps the relationship alive. lol!
Or maybe she's asexual and just likes to have a man at her side to give the appearance that they're a couple. Or maybe he's a eunuch. Who knows? We do know she loves the attention the two of them get when they're spotted together.
I agree the twins are too young to go to the concert alone.It's a good excuse for Kate to get out of the house and away from the tups.And palling around with the twins will earn her brownie points with them, as someone else stated.As for Steve, maybe Kate really can't do much on her own. She never has, with Jon driving and 'leading the way' in the airport, or all through her world-wide travels, she has Steve plus others along.Remember when she said she could not drive on a highway, get gas or go hither, thither and yon? I guess NJ may be 'yon.' Or maybe Steve had his ticket before the break-up and didn't want to waste it- reserved, like his slice of pizza.

FYI, 1D is playing Philly next week for two nights, and there appear still to be plenty of tickets available. So what was with the supposed desperation 6 months back about landing tickets?
--------------------
The show K attended was a second show that was added later. I was confused about what night the 1D concert was, so looked up the concert schedule. I found several. One showed only one night per venue, with another showing extra shows, labelled "added" or something like that. There was a pattern - originally there was one show at a venue, then two days off, then one show at another venue, etc. The schedule that showed the "added" shows showed two nights at a venue, one night off, two nights at a venue, one night off, but not all venues had a second show. I think the promoters were smart to do it this way - selling out all their shows, and letting the news of the sell-outs build demand for the added concerts.
Don't know all the details, or when the extra shows were added, but it makes K's story very believable. She missed out on tickets for the first show, was desperate because she had promised the girls, and got tickets with no fuss or fanfare when the later shows were added.
By the way, I don't understand all the remarks about the show being in "a different state". To me, the distance is what's important, not state lines. It's not like it's another country. Sometimes it's more convenient to go to another state for something (shopping/dining/concert) than a distant venue in your own state. I know that's not true in this case, but crossing state lines just doesn't seem like that big of a deal to me. In the immortal words of KG, "I don't get it".
Twit, 102, "They basically gave Amber the story on a "golden" platter by tweeting her the pictures of them at the concert."
)))))))))))))))))))))))))))))
Absolutely, and that's the thing about sheeple. They can't get think. They can't say, "what if...I do this or that and is it going to backfire on me?"
Sheep will never learn.
AuntieAnn: codfish works, too! And I agree.Steve seems a bit of a wuss to me. Not bodyguard material. Or in the sack.
Another thing--If Kate and Steve are "just friends" and Steve is working on a "crumbling marriage", wouldn't a "friend" stay away from Steve so that he could work on his marriage.
The whole spin from the "insider" makes absolutely no sense. Especially the part about them that says "despite trying to cut off all communication, “they will always have a connection.”
So which is it? They're trying not to communicate, but since they have a "connection", it's okay that he goes with her to a concert without his wife. That sounds like they're "communicatin'".
I will always have a "connection" with my ex through my daughter and grandchildren, but you won't see me going out to a concert or other venue with him.
All This Is That said... 114
Kate's attire leaves much to be desired, but that is not a backless halter top. It's her long blond hair that is hanging down her back. It'd hate to do those stadium seats in those heels, though!
)))))))))
Agree that her outfit was a bit, well, teenager-ish for a show, but the bag really wasn't over the top. I've carried bags like that to concerts. I've used them to hold ponchos (in case of rain), hoodies when it gets cool at night, whatever. There are other issues at hand here, such as Uncle Steve going to a show as a friend, not-a-bodyguard, rather than criticizing her for carrying a big purse. Nit-picking sometimes gets out of hand, especially if there may have been a reason for carrying an over-sized bag.
I think this is a sheeple source with some kind of agenda and end game normal people can't figure out who got in too deep and is back peddling now. Only being a sheeple they have no idea how to clean this mess up so they're just sounding even more convoluted. The only thing that's disappointing is that Amber is still writing what they say.
I need to increase the font size on my screen. I read that as cod fish.
-----------------------------------
I don't know why this made me lol so much.
On letting the girls attend the concert on their own - I think you have to look at the context and maturity of the kids. This is a teeny bopper concert. This is not a heavy metal show. I think to encourage maturity and responsibility, it would have been fine to let them go on their own. Drop them off at the venue, even look up a map online with them to scout out where their seats are, etc. What is a right age? Obviously up to each parent, but how are they going to grow, if they are not allowed to?
The only thing that's disappointing is that Amber is still writing what they say.

It could be she wrote that to demonstrate the inane logic of the sheep. She wrote most of the article in quotes because their stupidity is difficult to describe.
Oh and this "Uncle Steve" bs. Good grief. Would he be a blood relative or is he related through marriage? Stop it Gladys, m'kay?
lukebandit @lukebandit
@Kateplusmy8 @MiloandJack Hooker matador high heels, short skirt backless halter top, purse looks like a SHOPLIFTING bag! Not a mom of 8!!
***************
lol, lukebandit. I think that a matador might have some problem fighting that bull in those shoes. The shoes I've seen on matadors are low-flat ballerina types with straps!
"TFW doesn't have *anyone* else who could accompany her? She's gotta take some other woman's husband? Out of all the friends she has, only Steve is available to escort her to this concert?"
*******************
Well, heck, yeah. Milo claims that Kate has so many close true friends who really love her. Why didn't one of them accompany her to the concert? Why Steve? Come on, Gladys. Spin it!
If you ask me, this whole thing is tacky as all hell.
If it's true that TFW and Gina are good friends, why would TFW continue to going out with her husband? Especially if TFW knows that
she's partly responsible for the deterioration of Steve's marriage?
I don't care if this concert outing was planned long ago. Steve should not have been a part of this planned outing.
TFW has no respect for anyone.
If I was Gina, I would scratched Steve'd eyes out, and beat the crap out of TFW with both of her fugly cockroach stompers.
So if Steve no longer works for Kate, did he attend as a "friend"? To me, that is even worse than when he was employed by Kate. Why didn't Kate ask Jamie?
And that insider is definitely someone from Kate's camp. "Crumbling marriage" says it all. That's Kate dream come true.
"An insider exclusively tells Radar the two are still “broken up” but remain friends, despite trying to cut off all communication, “they will always have a connection.”
Is Radar talking about Kate or Gina Neild (the connection being the Nield children)? Imo, I think Kate is laying the groundwork to reveal "Uncle" Steve as the new boyfriend. When (if) she does this, it will prove Jon was right all along. It will show that Kate is the one who destroyed her own marriage and the poor pitiful struggling single mom was just an act. Not to mention the small fact that she betrayed Gina, a friend and destroyed a family in the process (of course Milo will spin this as being Jon or Gina's fault somehow).

*shudder*
=========
Thanks, Tucker's Mom. That is sweet of you to say.
Yes, he and the new wife had 2, 3, and 4 year olds together (he was in his fifties and she was in her early thirties). Her obituary appeared in the paper with no explanation except that she died "suddenly" just days before Christmas. She was from out of town and I have to wonder if her family had any idea of what he was like. A few others who knew how abusive he had been thought exactly what I did--her death was eerily convenient for him.
He tried to play grieving husband on Facebook. "I know we were separated but we got along great and still spent so much time together! We still truly loved each other!" That lasted for about a week, and then miraculously he was over it and telling everyone what a great dad he was. It was very "off" and fake sounding to me. Just like with Kate, when you know something's not right. Yeah, it creeped me out too!
The insider has got to be Jamie or Deanna. My vote is with Deanna because she has a big mouth. I bet she she a source for plenty of tabloid articles. Saying "broken up" absolutely refers to a romantic relationship. And talking about a "connection" implies intimacy. Not normal phrasing for a business relationship.
Saw this comment on the ROL article.
"Gina was with him at the Demi concert too. It was Gina who was holding Steve's hand."
More sheeple spin. How would they know this if they weren't there? Is one of them besties with Gina?
This whole thing stinks to high-heaven. What's that whole thing about them always having a connection? Such as??? They had an affair? One donated a kidney to the other? Long lost siblings? Sheeple, when you find yourself in a hole, stop digging. This is backfiring on Kate, big-time.
Every time they mention "Kate's camp" all I can picture is a one-man pup-tent.

Lol, you're right! Somehow this will be Gina's fault!
Gina has a lot of nerve not to let Kate have her husband. After all, Gina already had him for years. Their kids are grown or almost grown, why does Gina need him anyway? A true friend would give her husband to Kate and be happy to do it. Gina must have some kind of agenda or is trying to get a piece of the pie ;)
Just reading the article now. The first sentence says it all.
"He might not be her bodyguard anymore, but that doesn’t mean Steve Neild and Kate Gosselin are going to stop seeing each other!"
That's Amber, thumbing her nose at the sheeple attack. She's way smarter than them. Lots of innuendo in that sentence. Bwahahaha!

My theory on Steve and Kate? I think he was 'doing her' a few yrs ago at the height of all the craziness (whose bodyguard tells their client to get bigger implants?), but after a while he lost interest,and now he strings her along as a booty call.
There's no way Steve wants to marry her and be step daddy to 8 kids--he just doesn't look the type.
I think he strings her along and he's got HER by the cods. He's the only person she has left in her camp---and she lets him treat her this way because she wants him.
(just my opinion, of course!)
jcb
This is backfiring on Kate, big-time.
*******
Agree, PJ.
This looks awful on both Kate and Steve. Not that this hasn't looked bad for YEARS now, but this time, Gina looks like the cheated upon spouse.
When Jon looked cuckolded, obviously neither Kate nor Steve cared. Moreover, Jon looked pretty bad at that point, for many reasons, so he garnered very little sympathy.
But Gina? What did she ever do?
This looks really bad when once again, rumors are firing up about Gina's husband and his peccadillos with Kate, all these years later, it's just flaunting at this point.
Flaunting and callous.
BTW, I wonder if Steve's boys are ever hurt when they see him vacationing with Kate and her kids, and not their mom and them.
Nice matching bracelet, too.
Ugh.
Yeesh, I better watch what I type until you ladies fix your fonts! 0-0 !! lol
What a silly convoluted mess with ROL posting conflicting stories about Nield and Kate. So in one story - he supposedly quits working for Kate, and he's going to focus on running his security firm and try to patch up his marriage.
However, he's then spotted at a concert with Kate and the twins, and suddenly the latest story is they are "broken up" but can't stop communicating with each other. Blech.
Maybe Steve returned to his dusty, unused office and found all his business prospects have dried up since he became chief purse carrier and king of the matching outfits for Kate Gosselin. Maybe the only work he can drum up is babysitting a grown woman, because she is unable to figure out how to drive herself and her teens to a concert, walk through the crowds to their nosebleed seats and sit there like mediocre everyday people.
These two are perfect for each other -- so why doesn't he just get a divorce and move in with Kate already? Why doesn't his wife kick him out and take half of everything he owns already? Maybe Steve doesn't want to be hen-pecked for the rest of his life.
Well, maybe Kate is doing 'the deed' with Steve so Gina doesn't have to. He isn't exactly Simon Baker. LOL
Gina might be the smartest one in the bunch-maybe she's the one laughing all the way to the bank.

Ha! I saw that too. No picture no proof!
What kills me is that there IS ample picture proof that Jon sees the kids, but the sheeple ignore those pictures. They shut their eyes, put their hooves in their ears and go "baa baa baa baa baa baa baa baa."
I'm waiting for Milo to tweet, "U know me @Kateplusmy8, if I already had 20+ years with a man...was asked to I'd give him up to a single mom of 8…I'd do it as a gift of friendship".
Does this one hit wonder named Kate Gosselin really need a body guard? I believe she spends the wasteful money to boost her own ego. What an easy gig for a professional body guard named Steve! And, talk about buying your kids silence. Keep taking them to expensive concerts in limos and feeding their teenage ego as well. What kind of lessons is she teaching regarding money management? I know she will tell us she didn't get to go to expensive concerts, etc. as a child herself so she must be seen with her teens at anything she thinks is high profile. All of the above would have been a huge turn-off to Beth Carson just as it is to us. Did not take too long to figure it out, did it? Most of us here caught on fairly quickly. It was all just too uncomfortable/messy. The only thing that has changed is their show got canned. Kate's attitude remains the same. All this about still being "friends with Beth" is hogwash. That time is long gone.

Amen. If this story was a plant to discredit Radar and make Kate look good, they missed the target by miles. Firstly, this was NE's story. Radar simply reported on it. Second, this is in regards to infidelity. Very touchy and sensitive topic, understandably so. In addition to the many other colorful adjectives which describe Kate, this mess just adds "homewrecker" to the pile. Nice going fans. Way to "help" your girl out there. Even commentors who usually give Kate the benefit of a doubt are piling on.
This is why celebrities have professional PR people. To fiercely protect their image and make sure their client is presented in the best light. Either Kate doesn't want to pay or she doesn't want to listen to their advice or both. She's chosen to let a pack of twitter looney tunes write her narrative for her.
So now the question is, will Kate even tweet about going to the concert? She knows she's been outed as being there, not only with the twins but also with Steve. So will she tweet what a great time she and the twins had and how they bonded and made memories. That's what she said when they went to the Demi Lovato concert.
Or will she just ignore it and pretend it didn't happen?
I vote for the second.

Really? Gee, I thought she'd be back at the konpound babysitting the six because THAT'S what good friends do for each other. They stay back to make sure the chore chart is being strictly followed by the little inmates while the husband and his trashy looking client go to concerts with her kids.
She is silent on Twitter, so either they are not home yet or they are back but Uncle Steve is there. She has no time for her tweeties when she is enjoying a vacay, her man or both.
Here it comes:

Kate hasn't tweeted since the 'no' heard round the world. LOL
so that probably means she's not home, since she only tweets when she is stuck at home with the tups.

I don't think she'll mention it either. She never mentioned the kids went to vacation Bible school....where she could have thanked all the volunteers who ministered to her kids. She only mentions things when she is getting VIP treatment and/or getting swag, like the backstage experience with Taylor Swift. 'Normal' experiences with the mediocre masses, not so much.

Wow, ya'll! These post are extremely funny! I have laughed at everyone of them, except the sad ones.
Oh, my gosh! I laughed really bad when AuntieAnn said that maybe Steve was a eunuch! I thought I knew what that meant, but I looked it up and Bwahahaha! AuntieAnn, you are a PISTOL!

For what it is worth, my theory about RatClaws being with WOS and the twins at the concert:
I wonder if he really did get some sort of demand from his wife that he distance himself from WOS, but WOS hired him to 'bodyguard' her at the concert for more than his usual pay, and his wife told him to go for it. They then deposited the check in their joint bank account and happily went on about their business.
In MY opinion, RatClaws has never ever ever been TCFMJG's bodyguard for free. That doesn't mean that I don't think it's possible that he took the payment for being her 'bodyguard' and then took something on the side from pathetic WOS. JMO

When my daughter was 13 she loved NKOTB so when they came to our neck of the woods, I bought the tickets. There was my daughter, her best friend, and two of my nieces who were all about the same age. I got an extra ticket for my sister in law who was the favorite "fun" aunt. All of the kids loved her. she enjoyed going with them. they had a wonderful time and there were no parents to cramp their style. Win/win.
@MiloandJack: @Kateplusmy8 Just odd 2me. Beth had plenty of $$..yet obviously wanted big chunk of the bk..she wasn't a writer..no experience, yet got 50%?
***************************
Ok, that's it. I think Milo either IS TFW, or she/he is someone in cahoots
with TFW. Her comments are too perfectly aligned with what Kate would want everyone to know.
I went to my first concert when I was 13 and it was my mom who took me. It was Rick Springfield (think his General Hospital/Jessie's Girl days). It was my mom, myself, and 3 of my friends. She took me to 2 other concerts with my friends (Night Ranger & Def Leppard) before I turned 16 and was allowed to go with JUST friends. I even got Sammy Hagar I can't drive 55 floor seats for my 16th bday.
I've been to many concerts with my mom as an adult also. We have fun, enjoy each others company & for me, I treasure those memories. She saw Led Zepplin live, together we saw Robert Plant. Just a couple of summers ago, we went to Paul McCartney together. Hell, my mom has gone to TWO Motley Crue concerts because she wanted to. She saw Aerosmith with one of my brothers & The Police with the other.
To this day, she gives concert tickets as bday gifts. For my 21st bday she gave me concert tickets to Guns n Roses & plane tickets to Dallas to see them. (back when a flight from Houston to Dallas was like $50). Last year she gave one brother Nine Inch Nails tickets & the other Skinny Puppy tickets, knowing that they would go to both shows together. I like this because in 10 days both of my brothers & I will be sitting at the last Motley Crue show for my 46th bday. And THAT is also what a real family tradition is. something that has been going on for years and years and years and years and is about being together as a family.
and yes, I'm an 80's teenager, so concert tickets were less than $20 each for most shows. I saw a LOT of concerts.
Yep. Just to show that all is a-ok in Kate's world. And that when she looks out her window all she can see are butterflies and rainbows and unicorns grazing in the pasture
==========
Well, as long as there isn't a eunuch named Steve grazing in the pasture, I guess all is sunshine and lollipops.
On another note, what happens when the tups are 13-----how can she manage all 6 at once? Will they get the special treatment the twins are getting?
I doubt it. 20
Did those 3 little girls who made their mom famous ever get American Girl Dolls? And those 3 little boys? They get chores. Oh and Lego's.
Will this change? Nope.
As for Katie ruling through fear? Jon's children are a perfect example.

If I have one tradition with DD is concerts. Living in Montreal, there are always plenty to choose from, although at 16, it was strictly her and her friends. Maybe growing up street-wise in a big city made her more safety aware, but ùi never had a worry.
I was an 80's girl here, so, yeah the Forum, Foufounnes and Metropolis were my hang-outs. Never paid for tickets, just walked to the venue dressed like Alana Miles in Black velvet...black jean cat suit, red stilettos and 80's do, and tickets just magically appeared, lol.
In Nova Scotia 90's it was the Moon, Palace and Crazy Hore, LOL

Yes, I saw a picture in my 25 cent yard sale copy of the crookbook- the tup girls do have an American Girl each plus accessories.Wasn't there some song & dance about how generous the twins were to give them their old AG things as a birthday gift? The material things are weighted in favor of the girls- like the i pads, as far as we can see. But the boys need love and attention more than anything else.

Be careful what you ask for, because it might not turn out the way you like it.

_______________
So does that mean that pedophiles don't lurk there?
I disagree. I wouldn't let a 13-year-old go to that concert alone. The venue holds 82,000 people. Dropping them off and then finding them at the end of the show is next to impossible. I recently went to a show with a seating capacity of 50,000. It took us two hours to get out of the parking lot. There is no way that a parent could find a child in that mass of people. I don't care if you give them maps of the exits, meeting places, etc. It's a nightmare trying to find someone in that crowd. Been there, done that.
I tried to review the paperback- but since I reviewed the original Kindle edition I can't. I will add a comment to my own review though.
The material things are weighted in favor of the girls- like the i pads, as far as we can see. But the boys need love and attention more than anything else. 174
Formerly, I stand corrected about the dolls.
I wholeheartedly.agree about the need for love and attention.
I also think that the fact that Jon's children enjoy being with him enrages her.
Well, as long as there isn't a eunuch named Steve grazing in the pasture, I guess all is sunshine and lollipops.

He's probably allowed to eat indoors IF Shmoops has him properly trained.
And the kids better show some respect for the ' the only consistent man in their lives', by golly. Which, by the way, I interpreted to mean that he's over at the McMansion more often than his job calls for. He's their off-duty daddy now is he?
I wouldn't allow 13-year olds to go to the 1D concert alone- not even if I dropped them off at the door.
First, that place is enormous and second, those girls have grown up with a mother who can't even get through an airport on her own, so what kind of navigation do you think they can do?
Not much, I imagine, and sadly, I bet they'll be challenged to become independent, given that they've grown up with a film crews, nannies, body guards and a bevy of help to do what ordinary folks do on their own every day.
I remember Kate alluding to her kids being more mature and savvy than other kids because of their show, but I think they are sheltered like mushrooms.
But the tups received their sister's cast off American Dolls...they didn't get new ones. (Of course Kate didn't pay for them since it was filmed)

So does that mean that pedophiles don't lurk there?
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Unfortunately, I'm sure there are. As there could be anywhere. Especially being beamed into 10 million homes on a weekly basis.
As I said, depends on the maturity, etc of each kid. I just think that sometimes, we as parents have to allow our kids to experience things themselves. I know it's hard - I have an 8 and 9 yr old, and there are certain things that I need to let go of, for their benefit. Again, each parent's choice.
I said earlier today I wouldn't let my 15 yr old twins go alone to a venue that large..
we've been to several college football games (80000 in attendance), and iphone service is almost non existent due to the amt of people there.
it doesn't matter though, Kate goes to the events because she was denied everything as a child. LOL

AND do not touch the freaking pizza!
She's chosen to let a pack of twitter looney tunes write her narrative for her. 150
Well, they do work for free.
___________
I bet that they would pay Kate to allow them to work for her!
I've been reading some of the sheeple tweets the past few days. Their stupidity is mind-boggling. It would be a fascinating study for a psychologist who would be interested in publishing the findings in a journal. I sometimes wonder if they are really as dumb as they come across as being, or if they are deliberately feigning stupidity in their last gasp at trying to defend Kate. For their sake, I really hope it's the latter.
OK
I nominate today as Internation 15 Minute Freudian Slip day.
My above post 173 was The Crazy Horse...not The Crazy Hore..
although....
LOL, somebody pass me a rumspringa please
franky
Of course Milo would work for free she/he will be next to Kate and the smoking surgically enhanced body of hers that's Milo pay & wet dream all in one.
so why doesn't he just get a divorce and move in with Kate already

Would you?

It's operation defiance Kate Gosselin style lol.
Milo should get Mr. LOM to call Olivia Pope she can "handle" the haters and radar for KK.
I have to laugh at this tweet to Amber:

@AmberGoodhand @MY_2BCOLLIES @Kateplusmy8 Wow, U have the nerve to mention bullying yet ur stories from so called sources fuel Kate bullying
She's so worried about Kate getting bullied, but she's been doing the exact same thing to Amber.

She's so worried about Kate being bullied while Kate goes to yet another fun concert with purse boy! I mean it's really too funny.
And she's right. Look how they attacked Beth.

Exactly. It makes no different whether they are named or unnamed. None. The sheeple don't believe either one. If anything they seem to work harder to discredit named sources.
Well, they do work for free.

They must be all rich! Only rich people are required to work for free. After all, they're rich.

The dolls shown in the crookbook were different than the twins' dolls and all 3 tups had one. They may have been grifted, of course...the tups received clothes etc from M and C for their birthday, not the old AG dolls iirc

@ConcernedChick @AmberGoodhand @MY_2BCOLLIES @Kateplusmy8 thanks for reminding me I sent Amber PROOF her story was a LIE! 😘

You can bang your head on the wall only so many times over these idiot sheeple, but they still won't get it. It was NOT Amber's story!

If one wants to let children gain some responsibility and independence, that's totally understandable. Letting them go alone to a concert venue this large is not the way to go about it. In my opinion, it's foolish. With so many young people disappearing, why risk it? Wait a bit until they are older, then start with a small show, in a place where you can easily find them, stay in the background if you have to. Scope out the place before the show if you feel more comfortable doing so.
I would not throw my kids out there with 85,000 other people, even if the cell phones work (more often than not, they don't) and a way to find me (which really isn't possible in a crowd that large). Unless you've actually been in a crowd of that many people, you can't really understand how massive it is.

Yep.
Depends on the kid, depends on the concert, depends on the venue. Depends, depend, depends. In any case, Kate and Steve could have gotten seats a few rows behind them and allowed the poor twins to bring a girlfriend or two. I think they both look bored.
I feel the opposite about large crowds. I think there is tremendous safety in numbers. The larger the crowd the more security, etc. Small groups can be much more dangerous.

The sheep are a-okay with Jon and Liz and Kate family members can be attacked and talked badly about and it fine even applauded .
But the split second someone talks badly about Kate the sheep cry bully and lies and jealousness.
They have a warped way of thinking and it's really pathetic that it's become laughable.
And what the sheep really fail to realize is when they get attacked Kate doesn't stand up for them.-(That when she's not ignoring them)
I wouldn't let my teen go alone to a concert either if I was the WOS.
Do you know how many kids/teens get kidnapped and how many people hate Kate?

I watched two sweet children be given a lot of material things, including things like the best bikes, iPods, front row seats season tickets to professional sports teams, yes lots of concerts, and exotic trips to places like Bora Bora. I wouldn't say they acted spoiled much, but I would definitely say that material things were the go-to thing to appease them.
Sure, they liked it at the time. They loved telling their friends they had great seats at the Red Hot Chili Peppers or to bring them to a game. But it's not what they needed. And the proof is in the pudding when you check in with them today. Tons of very serious, serious issues. Clearly it's not what they needed.
Ok, that's it. I think Milo either IS TFW, or she/he is someone in cahoots
with TFW. Her comments are too perfectly aligned with what Kate would want everyone to know.
&&&&&&&&&&&&
Hey, Mrs. M! How's the Mister, and has he come up with any gems lately?
Don't you know, though, that Gladys is so far up Kate's behind that it's quite possible that she's starting to think exactly like Kate? They're connected physically. Transference, and all?

Lol!
In seriousness, I do think she has tried to mirror Kate as much as possible. A real friend would let you have to confidence to be who you are but this is not a real friend.
Remember when you were nine and mirrored the popular girl in school? Went out and bought the same skirt she had, tried to use the same cool expressions she did? Then you turn ten and realize that's just dumb and you stop doing that and just be yourself. That's totally Milo. I think she honestly thinks if she keeps trying to be EXACTLY like Kate, Kate will love her more or maybe she will be come just like Kate, her hero. Only she's a grown freaking woman. This whole situation is like porn for somebody who loves sociology or psychology, which includes me! I can't look away!
Hey, don't tell Gladys that One Direction charges money for their
shows. They're rich! They should perform for free!
Well whether this Amber chick's source is good or not, she sure is awesome at holding her own and telling the sheeple to suck it. That's refreshing lol.
Amber can't control it if she has someone who is a real member of the saga that she has verified, like Deanna, but that this person is just feeding her bullshit. That's not really Amber's fault until she has reason to suspect she's being fed crap. (For the record, I think she needs to get a clue by now)
I just have to chime in here, I live in Chicago and one of President Obama's daughters just went to Lollapollza this weekend, a weekend concert event with over 100,000 people a day. . Granted she had undercover security with her, but her parents let her experience a concert with her friends. If Kate really wanted her girls to have a good time, she could have "hired" Steve to watch the girls and maybe bought a couple of extra tickets and let them each bring a friend. I believe that Mady and Cara could go lots of places without being recognized, it's Kate that wants to go out and still feel like she's important. I'm not saying that some people at a concert might know who she was, but the majority of people there wouldn't know who she was or really care about her. It's always, all about KATE!!!!!!!
Hi PA Dutch Mom!!! Well, since you asked . . . Recently I got the hubs hooked on Farmville 2. (If you're unfamiliar, you grow crops then use them to make things like carrot cake, goat cheese, etc then you "sell" them for points and coins.) The other night he said, "I need to make more stones." I thought, stones? He must be on a higher level than I am. Then the next night he said, "I hate making these stones!" Then I realized he meant SCONES. Then we went through the whole: Stones? Scones. Stones - that what I said. No, scones. Sc - sc - scones. (Long pause). Oh!
He cracks me up! I felt like I was in that commercial - Fraud protection. Frog protection? Fraud protection. FroG? FrauD.

I think those two people are darn good parents who are setting a great example for their kids. That includes taking a stand on when people tried to "market" them and respecting your elders by having grandma move in in her old age. We'll just never see eye to eye politically!
I imagine it must be mortifying to be the presidents daughter and you just want to go to a concert. It's the same idea. Without context, they could probably blend in a hell of a lot easier.

Yes free concerts for all. I mean how dare an artist charge for their work.
I am also going to side with Kate as far as accompanying those girls to the concert. That is a prime place for pedophiles to scout for their next victim. With that said, I will NOT side with her choice of 'friend' she chose to go with her. She just this week stated on twitter that she has lots of true friends so my question is Why didn't she ask one of her girl friends to go with them for a night out at the concert. They could have all went for a nice dinner after and laughed and giggled about the boys in the band like real true friends do. The girls would have enjoyed that I'm sure. But no, what does Kate do. She takes a very married man away from his wife of almost 20 years, his children who I am sure are probably in the process of getting ready for college to begin, to accompany her to the concert. Where is Jamie or Deanna or all the other girlfriends she tweets about. This just goes to show that it's all about what Kate wants and to hell with everyone else's wants or needs. If she is such a good friend with Steve's wife, why didn't she ask her to go?? I don't know why she doesn't quit acting like a teenager and just admit that they are an item. If she's afraid it's going to ruin her reputation I've got a newsflash for you Kate. "YOU AND ONLY YOU HAS RUINED YOUR REPUTATION". That ship has sailed.
