Can't disagree, Milo. But question. When Kate paraded of the children out onto the today show and they were asked about their relationship with their father was that shameful horrible child exploitation too? If not what's the difference?
Very unusual for an article on this site to take a stand.

Now if only they had spell check.
Penn Mom, I think you hit it on head there. She's desperately trying to make a batch of platitudinous lemonade out of this lemon. lol. I'm trying to feel sorry for her but it's not happening.
-----------------
So may we assume that she will not get that warm and fuzzy feeling tonight?
In order to DM someone, you have to be following them and they have to be follow you, so I would think it the recipient would have to be someone she follows on twitter.
---------------------------
I don't have Twitter, so I don't know anything about "following." What fans would be under the umbrella of suspicion, and does she follow Jamie and Deanna?
So may we assume that she will not get that warm and fuzzy feeling tonight?

lol. Probably not. She's going to have to suffer through another restless night of frettin'.

I don't think Kate is dating Jeff. I think they are cooking up some foundation together where their can get publicity and paychecks. So what if they had dinner together and went to a casino. Big deal if he had his hand on her back. I think he a proven creep and is using Kate for her money and reputation. I hope he uses the hell out of her and lives her badly wounded. Yeah, I said it.
(Leslie)
Kate's family must be very heartbroken over the lives of the Gosselin children. All this media attention since the day the tups were born. And literally hundreds of reality tv shows depicting their very lives. All the hundreds--probably thousands--of magazine and newspaper articles about Jon, Kate, and their kids--most of course very negative. All the numerous, numerous tv interviews given by both Jon and Kate that are negative. Of course, Kate takes the cake and has driven this media attention with poor Jon just wagging behind picking up the pieces. It is all very sad. And I think there is so much more that WE, the public, do not have a clue about.
If I was TLC I would distance myself from this family. I think in the coming years a lot will come out and it will not be good. If I was TLC I would want no association with the Gosselins in the coming years.
I think that the tweet kate sent about jon was probably supposed to be a text message. She might have been a little frazzled and didn't realize she was tweeting instead of texting.

kate went manic not over concern for her child, oh hell no. She was ballistic, because for a brief moment....Jon won.
And how did Jon win?
Hannah chose him.
Kate was not for a moment worried, she was pissed.
*************************************************************
By Jove, you've got it.
The child was never in danger. Kate was in danger of someone slipping from her iron fist. All of the kids are at an age where they should be self directing but due to their mother's control, it will take longer for some of them. This child obviously has the self confidence and will to assert herself and begin to make her own decisions The advantage of being the golden child has come back to bite TFW in the rear end.
I don't like to criticize any of the kids because of the poor parenting they have had and due to their unusual childhoods. They have been the pawns in this whole mess. I have just reminded myself of the cover of RH's book. It really is quite apt.

No one's brought this up, so I'll throw it out there. Was TFW's date
shown imbibing at the restaurant and/or at the casino? If so,
then he was at some point driving under the influence of alcohol.
Either driving from the restaurant to the casino, or from the casino
back to TFW's house. Should a mother of 8 take such a chance?
******************
Or is there a hotel attached to casino so they could spend some closer time together? I can't see them driving 2 hrs back home at 1:30 in the morning, drinking or not.
We have two stories here. 1) The date with Kate and Jeff. 2) A kid staying with Jon, asking for help, and Kate throwing a fit. It is telling to me that the people here, who have learned what she is like, pretty much all find one story implausible and one story plausible.
The date seems like a way to distract attention from something. They don't act "together." And who followed them from the restaurant to the casino?
The kid story seems real except for the surprise that it's Hannah. But even if it was another kid, the rest of the details would be the same. Can't you just picture her standing outside shrieking at Jon's home? And did Kate bring the other kids along to watch this or did she leave them home alone? Those poor children.
The PR machine is well oiled. Google her name and all you get is her dating a millionaire. No sign of her screaming at Jon's house on the first page in the search. No conspiracy or set up? Right.
As if the lunacy were not already enough.

It is not illegal to have a few drinks and drive. There is a limit as to how much alcohol in the blood is legal We have no way of knowing how much was consumed or who drove the vehicle. We have no way of knowing whether any alcohol was consumed.
Stupid stupid girl. You see what rage and losing your fricken mind gets you?. You "threw out" that tweet just like you "threw out" your journals. Your masterminding (read CONTROLing) of everyone's lives is biting you big time.
You are not the almighty you think you are. People were not born to serve you and your selfish needs. You'll never learn this, but your kids/husband/family/friends are all coming to the same conclusion
We have no way of knowing whether any alcohol was consumed.

I thought it was against the law to operate a motor vehicle under any influence.
One drink for some maybe be enough or one drink may not be enough.
And since KK is the sole provider and parent as she claims than she wouldn't even take that chance of getting a DUI or killing some1.
IMO If they were drunk or not drinking and driving is never acceptable.
The sheep see Jon with a girl in a bar with a drink they get thier hooves in a knot.
Kate supposedly in the same situation they sheep fall over themselves trying to pat the queen on her back for it.

I agree with you, 100%. But the law doesn't. It is not illegal to drive a vehicle and have alcohol below a certain point in your bloodstream.

No, no way of know how much, or if, any alcohol was consumed.
But, remember when the kids were little and she said she couldn't go on some perfectly safe outing because she absolutely couldn't take the chance, as a mom of 8, of getting hurt? Did you know that she's a mom of 8? And it's far more important that she not get hurt than the rest of you mediocre singleton moms.
Anyway. Driving around at 1:30am on a weekend night isn't the best idea if you're all that concerned about being safe. Maybe your driver isn't drunk/impaired, but there are plenty of other drivers out there with you who *are*.
If you're so, so concerned about your safety and not taking unnecessary risks, I'd rate being out and about in the wee hours as somewhat risky behavior, a risk that you don't need to take.
Oh, who am I kidding. She's not concerned about her safety in the least.

And that witch IndianaAnny tweeted to Jon "go screw another college girl." But the age difference between college kids and him (especially five, countem five years ago) is less that the age difference between TFW and the woman beater boyfriend.
Yeah, I can think of a hundred times TFW didn't protect her kids'
privacy. One of the most egregious examples is when she
described her daughter collapsing in a heap over the divorce,
and was kind enough to identify the child. She can never take
that back. How wildly inappropriate to share her child's intimate
pain with the planet.
BTW, when I brought up the the drinking, I wasn't even talking about TFW. I assume Jeff did the driving. I meant TFW was a passenger
in the car with someone who might possibly be under the influence.
And if you only claim to know someone in a business capacity,
how could you know how they hold their liquor, and how it
effects their personality in general?
I agree 100% about drinking and driving however it is not illegal to have a couple of drinks (depending on body size not tolerance) with dinner. However, it was reported that they had exclusive "bottle service" at the casino. Bottle service means that they're served the ENTIRE bottle for their consumption. That would be more than a couple of drinks with dinner and that, to me, is drinking and driving.
P.J. said... 24
I know the limit is 0.8 or something like that..
I just hope they had a driver with them.
Also Kate got drunk in front of her crying kids while on national tv so that shows me her lack of character. So I wouldn't put it pass to to drive wasted.
Sad but true - I don't think TLC is paying for the bots on twitter, I think that's all TFW. After the HBB fiasco I don't think that TLC wants to be involved to the extent of burying something else.
Fired Up 4 Kate @MiloandJack...@Kateplusmy8 You kept the details of this ordeal quiet..you protected ur lil girls privacy & her identify. You cared...they didn't!@MomLove
The reason TFW protected her little girl's privacy was because the incident showed her in a bad light. It wasn't #MomLove it was #SelfPreservation.

It's a plant. Has to be. Who followed them from Wernersville to Philly to the casino? The fact that jeff is identified right away from fuzzy photos mostly of his baggy behind is a tell. The huge tell is calling him millionaire again.
The narrative is the same as the last times their supposed dating was leaked

I don't think the TLC PR machine is involved in any of this. I think it's all TFW and her PR machine. The reason the custody story gets buried is because TFW's camp keeps putting out new stories about her with the millionaire boyfriend.
So this Prescott guy drove all the way out to the country to pick up Kate, then back to the city, and repeated same at the end of the evening. For their orchestrated date. Something about this just does not smell right. Oh, of course, it's Kate. Deflect, deflect.

I'm not familiar with bottle service. What size bottle is served...a pint, a fifth??? For two people, even a pint is too much if you're going to drive. Jeff must be a big boozer if he required a bottle of booze with dinner, not a drink or two.

This should have been done when J+K divorced and Kate made the kids film the painful breakup of their family. There should have been an ad litem for years now.
Unbelievable.
I think she and Jeff spent the night in Philly or at the casino if there are rooms there. Why assume he drove her back to Wernersville?
I think the photos from the date are from an amateur who happened to be there and that a creative journalist may have filled in the details about the rest of the story or had a source.
More than likely they just stayed the night there and left the next day. It seems unlikely most people would want to undertake that drive in the middle of the night after a fun night. You would want to just crash at a hotel.
You can get a wet reckless driving charge for being reckless but below the limit but he seems like a pretty big guy and if he stopped drinking an hour or two before he's probably fine. Interesting if those reports he doesn't want to marry are true. What exactly is he doing stringing along a mother of eight then? Seems kind of selfish. She needs someone willing to offer a real commitment to her family and all the baggage that comes with it. He seems like he just wants a date.

Even if my driver curtailed his drinking, I'd be very nervous about driving the highways back into Kate's area in the middle of the night.
But, Kate is reckless when it comes to driving. Reading Robert's many accounts of her driving herself and in a limo was hair raising. Kate was reckless even with kids, and was cavalier with others' lives.
I hope they got a hotel room just for the fact that she'd be safer traveling home in the morning.
Even if my driver curtailed his drinking, I'd be very nervous about driving the highways back into Kate's area in the middle of the night.
&&&
It's not the best idea if you can avoid it, even if you're sober. It always made me nervous to hear about Kate driving home from NYC at 2 am, like when she got that speeding ticket.
The big problem this time of year is animals. At dusk and dark they can be everywhere and if you hit a deer or something similar at high speeds you could find yourself in a serious accident. Most of us from there, including me, know someone who has been seriously injured or even killed by a nighttime accident, whether it was an animal or encountering a drunk or sleepy driver who missed a stop sign or traffic light. It's better to wait until light in that part of the country if you can.

Kate's mentality is 13-15 yo, so yeah, I think she's done crazy stuff like this before and will continue to do it.
It's dumb. Just dumb.
At 40, you should be wiser than to take chances like that.
Again, hope they got a room.
Every time I've seen Kate in a limo, she's NEVER had a seat belt on. I remember on CA, Kate sat in that van (with the other ladies) on the Turnpike, not wearing a seat belt!!
That's insane! I believe Kate thinks she's too cool for school. She's more concerned about how she looks instead of caring about being safe, or comfortable.
What exactly is he doing stringing along a mother of eight then? Seems kind of selfish.
_____
You know I always find fault with the woman or man who knows that the person they're dating does't want to marry and they stay.
It's their own faults.
Same thing if she was with Steve four six years and he didn't leave Gina she stayed so it's her own fault
Now if he tricked her into thinking something different that's another story.
Admin (#39), I think the latest Radar story is just TFW's camp
trying to get a little more juice out of the date story, and to deflect
from yesterday's custody bombshell. And I agree that TLC is
probably not involved in this latest round of publicity. She's
expendable to them now.
Will there be a new blog today? If not, TFW is probably kicking
herself for not investing the 20 minutes it must take to write it.
That'd be a nice deflection. And lots of fun for us!
All the bots that started RTing the boyfriend story on her TL last evening are the reason why the custody story sank. I'm sure Kate or TLC is paying for this.
--
I look at it differently. Who cares if the custody issue got buried. If Jon is really taking her to court, it doesn't get 'buried' there. Maybe it's better buried for the kid's sake.
When the dust settles and a legal decision is reached, then it will reappear.
And yes, Kate was PISSED, not worried, when Hannah wouldn't go home. Kate needs that lil money maker at home. Her "I'm in charge and that's never gonna change' ended the day she kicked Jon out and he found his voice. And now the kids are finding theirs.
You bring up a good point Chef.
She's clinging to Steve for years and year and it's clear he's decidedly unavailable or even if he were available, obviously hasn't married her. Even if the relationship was platonic, she still put a lot of time and energy into it at the expense of perhaps meeting someone else.
Now she's with this guy, almost two decades older than her, has done the whole marriage and raising kids thing and there doesn't seem to be an indication he wants to start over with 8 almost teenagers. Seems to me she's putting a heck of a lot of effort into friends/relationships that ultimately end up hitting a wall and don't go anywhere.
She needs therapy. Lots of it.
I'm not familiar with bottle service. What size bottle is served...a pint, a fifth??? For two people, even a pint is too much if you're going to drive. Jeff must be a big boozer if he required a bottle of booze with dinner, not a drink or two.
******
Bottle service is any bottle. If it's liquor, you get mixers etc.
It's VERY $$$$, and is all about pretense. You get seated in a VIP area at your own table, and people can envy you (not me, but..)
The mark-up on the booze is astronomical.
Something tells me "Millionaire Jeff" is a paper millionaire.
Kate is reckless when it comes to driving
_______
And this was part of my point we heard how she drive soberly.
Fire lanes speeding tickets Roberts accounts.
So I don't want to think how she drive when she's had a drink or two.
I don't think Kate wants to be married. She seems to hold men in very low regard, even when they are just little boys.
She needs therapy. Lots of it.
______
You are right.
I also think that their is a man out there that would love to be a decent stepfather and husband.
Kate needs to take her time in finding him. And while I can't stand Kate I hope she does find that guy someday.
From the ET Online article:
"According to ET's source, Jeff played had stacks of $100 bills on the table and the couple enjoyed bottle service while sneaking kisses and getting affectionate while gambling. They didn’t leave the casino until about 1:40 a.m."
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If ET’s source was there until they left, iPhone camera in hand, why would this "source" miss the money shot of them "sneaking kisses". Instead we see a picture of Prescott barely touching her back with about a foot between them; I too smell a set-up here. It may be a date of sorts, but not a romantic one.

I think the photos from the date are from an amateur who happened to be there and that a creative journalist may have filled in the details about the rest of the story or had a source.
******
Here's why I see it as a tip-off and not some random person who recognized Kate.
How did they know Jeff picked her up at home?
They saw them getting out of his car in order to name the specific type of vehicle?
They followed them from the restaurant to the casino? If this casino is Valley Forge, then this person tailed them for an HOUR (ish)? Just to get a photo of the back of them, with Jeff's hand on Kate's back?
What we've seen from time to time is that when Kate is spotted out, and someone snaps her photo (or just sees her), they Tweet it out. "Hey, out in Philly at Tallulah's and there's Kate Gosselin with some dude!"
Or, "hey, at X casino and Kate Gosselin is here gambling!"
And ET got the pics and story? Really? How would some random person go right to ET? Nah, they'd go to TMZ and then maybe Radar-the two biggest trash gossip outlets out there, and there's NO WAY they would have passed on this juicy gossip.
Moreover, photos from two separate locations wind up on ET? What are the chances?
So, this is the same random person, who tailed them over a hundred miles, over the course of several hours, thought, "hmm...I think I should contact ET and sell these!!".
I dunno.
That's my story and I'm sticking with it!

When I lived in Bucks, I would have my eyes PEELED for deer.
One night, just after dusk, I came upon a huge buck, I mean huge. He just stood there in my headlights.
IIRC, I turned off my lights and honked to get him to move, but he sure took his time.
If I wasn't paying attention, I'd be injured or dead.
I find it interesting that this heretofore unknown, but conspicuously dubbed, "Millionaire Jeff", has a camp of "insiders" who leak shit to the press.
Hmm....
I sort of chuckle thinking it's family leaking the story that Jeff doesn't want to marry because of who he's dating. I mean, who would want Kate to join their family?
Hell no!!!!!
Yeah, I can think of a hundred times TFW didn't protect her kids'
privacy. One of the most egregious examples is when she
described her daughter collapsing in a heap over the divorce,
and was kind enough to identify the child. She can never take

++++++++++++++++
Hey, Gladys. On a radio show, Kate discussed the twins and their bras.
"Or is there a hotel attached to casino so they could spend some closer time together? I can't see them driving 2 hrs back home at 1:30 in the morning, drinking or not."
+++++++++++++++++
If they were in Valley Forge, it's not two hours. It's an hour to her house, perhaps even less with no traffic. It's not like they would have been driving half-way to Florida at that time of the night. I've left Philadelphia that late, there's little traffic and it's an easy drive. Now if the driver had been consuming quite a bit, then it's a different story and I could see why they might chose to stay over. Of course, he could have had a driver. Who knows?

And I forget who wrote that they don't want to see Steve leave Gina for Kate, because then Kate would have gotten her way and "won" once again.
I say, blech. She can have him.
That's isn't winning in my book. A man who treats his wife like Gina has been treated, who has had a mistress for years, if true?
That's no man that I'd want.
That's not winning.
I think most of us would unhook and throw him back into the sea...
I mean, who would want Kate to join their family?

Kate treats her own kids like poop can you imagine having her as a stepmother? Dear God the horror!!!!!.
(Leslie)
Even if the relationship was platonic, she still put a lot of time and energy into it at the expense of perhaps meeting someone else.
________________
Admin.great point. Kate had/has great opportunities to meet available men with all of her travels and trips. But what great man would approach her with Steve next to her. She is so stupid not to realize this.
Bottom line is I don't think Kate really wants a boyfriend. Why? Because any boyfriend would be privy to her personal life and there would always be the good possibility that they would break-up and he would go public with her secrets. Can you imagine the things he would witness in that house. And she would have to tell him the details about why she is not close to her family. She is afraid to open up to any man because she is holding a host of secrets. And any boyfriend would know for a fact that she has breast implants! Again, another lie she has to maintain even though any fool with eyes can figure that out.
(Leslie)
I think both Jeff and Kate are leaking their outing to the press. If it was just Jeff than Kate would know it was him and have good reason not to trust him. So therefore I think they are in it together. Plus it is good publicity for coming "business deal".
Interesting if those reports he doesn't want to marry are true. What exactly is he doing stringing along a mother of eight then? Seems kind of selfish. She needs someone willing to offer a real commitment to her family and all the baggage that comes with it.
====
I doubt if Kate is ever going to be in a genuine relationship again, unless she stops pretending she's something she's not - and that is a loooong list. Until she gets help and learns to be honest and less selfish, she's only going to attract men who are just like her and that wouldn't be a good thing for the kids.
OT ... Now here's something. I just learned that a dear friend of mine, a full-bloodied Native American, passed away. He was the kindest, gentlest, most humble man I may have ever known. The memorial service will be OUTSIDE because they know the turnout won't fit in the church! They don't expect to have enough chairs, so they suggest people bring their own.
That's a person who lived a good life. Small house, little money, a profession that allowed him to help people and be generous despite the low monetary return. He was far, far richer than Kate, Steve, Eileen O'Neal, or Jeff Prescott ever will be.
When you think about what Kate considers valuable and what this man did, the stark perspective is all too clear. I expect that in heaven, this gentleman knows everyone there.
If they were in Valley Forge, it's not two hours. It's an hour to her house, perhaps even less with no traffic. It's not like they would have been driving half-way to Florida at that time of the night. I've left Philadelphia that late, there's little traffic and it's an easy drive. Now if the driver had been consuming quite a bit, then it's a different story and I could see why they might chose to stay over. Of course, he could have had a driver. Who knows?

DH and I shoot out form Center City to Quakertown in about an hour.
The highway system is really quite good.
But, there are many dangerous areas and I fricking hate driving the NE extension late at night.
Well, it sucks any time of day, but I really get nervous at night and bad weather.

Virginia Pen Mom (#67), sorry to hear about your friend's passing.
Sounds like he was beloved by so many, and that his life was
well lived.
why would this "source" miss the money shot of them "sneaking kisses"
&&&&
That's actually what makes it credible to me that it was just a passerby. If you're just shooting with an iphone which doesn't have a high burst rate and you're not an experienced photographer it's easy to miss that "moment."
I have a canon 7d that a lot of paps and sports photographers use that can take like six or seven photos a second. Expensive equipment and extensive training and/or practice (good photographers have an "anticipation" instinct just before a moment is about to happen) is how paps get the money shot. It's harder for a layman to get that with a regular phone unless they were holding that kiss a long time.
And thinking back to the mothers day episode where she repeated and repeated over and over how she has been there all alone with the kids from day one EVERYDAY
Didn't gwop have post after post of the out of days/weeks she was gone?

She didn't say EVERYDAY did she???????
***********************************************
Looking for the clip, but can't seem to be able to find it.
I'm going to paraphrase but she said
"It was only little ol'ME and the kids, there was nobody else around, it's always just been me and them"
That's actually what makes it credible to me that it was just a passerby. If you're just shooting with an iphone which doesn't have a high burst rate and you're not an experienced photographer it's easy to miss that "moment."
::::
The thing that doesn't work for me is, it would appear one person (just someone with their iphone) takes the shots and sends them and someone else supplies the narrative? Or did the person who took the shots also supply the narrative but didn't manage to get pics of the kissing? Did that person follow them from the restaurant to the casino or were there two different people who took the pics? It doesn't add up.
Admin, I have to agree with some other posters and respectfully disagree with you. The restaurant and casino are not attached. You have to get in a car and drive between them. What random bystander would be at the restaurant then get in the car and follow them to the casino? It's just not believable. I still think Steve instead of pap. Also, to me the photos going to ET are a tell. They're one of the few shows that has talked to Kate in recent years. Give the photos to ET and maybe they'll have her on TV too.
I found this
In a statement last October, TLC attempted to justify the constant filming and exploitation of eight minor chidren's lives on Jon and Kate Plus 8 by saying ""Because of the show, the kids and the family have economic security and the luxury of a mom who can stay at home and raise them." GWOP's response to their statement on 10-19-08, pointed out that Kate and Jon in actuality leave the children all the time. It stated: "We believe that because of the show, Kate is spending even less time with the children than she would have if she worked a day job. Episode after episode, in addition to their speaking schedule, has confirmed that Kate, as well as Jon, leave these children on a regular basis for days at a time." Moreover in the episode All You Want to Know which aired 1-19-09, Kate tellingly described how much time she spends away from her kids working on the show, which include "the background scheduling ... interviews, the e-mails, the conference calls, the phone calls, the phone meetings, the in person meetings, the magazine article shoots ... phone interviews" which in her words add up to "horrendously more than 40 hours a week" and disturbingly, does not even include time spent "writing books, traveling and speaking." TLC insists that this show is okay because Kate gets to stay home. Regardless whether Kate stays home or not, I don't believe this show is healthy for the children. But the reality is that Kate is gone from her home and her children on a weekly, sometimes even daily basis. And even if she is home, she is obviously too busy with interviews and phone calls to pay attention to her kids. Below is a compilation of Kate's publicity schedule of just the past several months I've put together that demonstrates just how often this stay-at-home mom ISN'T home.TLC, would you like to explain how doing the show has allowed Kate to be more involved in her children's lives? Because from what I can discern here, not only are the children subjected to having their private lives put on display for millions of strangers to view, but they are also without a mother at home much of the time now.

I agree 100% about drinking and driving however it is not illegal to have a couple of drinks (depending on body size not tolerance) with dinner. However, it was reported that they had exclusive "bottle service" at the casino. Bottle service means that they're served the ENTIRE bottle for their consumption. That would be more than a couple of drinks with dinner and that, to me, is drinking and driving.
********************
You are making wild assumptions. First, just because people are served a bottle doesn't mean that they drink all of it. Second, if it's a bottle of wine and they consume all of it, that's 2 glasses per person. Third, time matters. Two drinks in 30 minutes vs. two drinks over a few hours does not result in the same BAC.
To conclude that he was driving drunk based on the information available is ridiculous.
It's funny when shit hits the internet fan and Kate goes twitter silent. Then a few days later she tweets stupid inane crap.
Don't ya know she's pissed Jon isn't really dead.

It's been so long ago I don't remember for sure, but in reading that "response" that sounds like my writing style. I wrote a few things for GWOP back in the day.
In any case whoever wrote it, good on ya!
A pap would not be able to take photos in a restaurant or casino with his very obvious high powered camera. If I were a pap, I would try to be as sneaky as possible, so I would use my iPhone. So to me, it does not have to be some random person. And they were either followed (only a pap would do that and we all remember Chris) or the narrative was supplied which means this was a setup. I totally vote for setup. Come on. How many times has Kate arranged photo ops of her pumping gas or in her yard? She knows the game. She either tipped off someone or arranged the photo op. Random people usually just tweet. DEFLECT.
I expect that in heaven, this gentleman knows everyone there.

Wow, what a beautiful thing to say...

kate went manic not over concern for her child, oh hell no. She was ballistic, because for a brief moment....Jon won.
And how did Jon win?
Hannah chose him.
Kate was not for a moment worried, she was pissed.
******
You are exactly right. She lost control of Hannah, she lost control of the situation, and she just plain lost it (screaming in the street and making wild accusations about Jon).
I am hoping and praying that Jon can at last make the family court see that it is NOT in the children's best interests to remain under the custody of their mother. Working in Jon's favor is that the older the children are, the more the court will listen to their wishes in the matter. If the twins want to remain living with Kate, then they should do so. But if any of the younger children want to live with their father, or at least be with him more than with their mom, I hope the judge will grant them the ability to do so.
But Kate will fight him tooth and nail, because she knows if Jon gets shared legal custody, or full legal custody of one or more of the children, TLC filming will go right out the window. How could TLC whitewash the fact that one or more of the children are no longer on the show?
I presume (maybe incorrectly, and if so, I trust Admin will point it out), that if Jon has shared legal custody, his agreement would be necessary for any filming. Jon has stated before his intent to go for greater custody rights - I hope that this time, he follows through and is successful.
The picture (from the date) from behind, with his arm on her shoulder, looks to me like they are actually posing for a picture for someone on the other side.

You say someone has leaked Jeff aka the millionaire is not interested in marrying? My, my. How convenient for Kate. All she cares about is someone spending money on her. It's plain that Jeff is not her soul mate, LOL. If Steve were available, she's marry him in a NY minute. I don't think she is a cold fish. I think she uses sex to get men to do what she wants. Period.
Expensive equipment and extensive training and/or practice (good photographers have an "anticipation" instinct just before a moment is about to happen) is how paps get the money shot. It's harder for a layman to get that with a regular phone unless they were holding that kiss a long time.
++++++++++++++
I agree. A random person with a phone isn't going to sit there in anticipation of a kiss. You either get the shot or you don't.
I'm surprised that the sheeple, who always want photo proof or it did't happen, aren't spinning this as being photo shopped, with Kate's head superimposed on another person's body. I wouldn't put it past them.
"DH and I shoot out form Center City to Quakertown in about an hour.

+++++++++++++++
Yes, and they weren't in Center City. They were on "this" side, and the drive would have taken an hour, tops, even at slow speeds.
Long time but sporatic reader, decided to comment after watching the Mother's Day fest. perhaps the "business deal" they are working on is to been seen in public, get paps to take pics, and sell stories to gossip sites. They both get money and media coverage.
IndianaAnny @CandyDishes 1h1 hour ago
I hope beyond hope @Kateplusmy8 IS dating! Lord knows she deserves happiness! There's so much more to women than being a mom.
Why? Her kids certainly don't appear to be happy, especially Hannah, but Lord knows that Kate deserves to be happy.
Kate. Kate, Kate, Kate...all about KATE!
As far as her trying to catch that night she tweeted and deleted, she actually thought that Jon not being home was the same as, let's say, oh I don't know...
LOCKING THEM IN THEIR ROOMS WITH A BABYSITTER?
REVERSING THE DOOR KNOBS SO ONLY SHE COULD LET THEM OUT?
TELLING THEM TO NOT TELL THEIR TEACHERS WHAT GOES ON AT HOME?
MAKING THE KIDS AFRAID TO TELL THEIR DAD ANYTHING?
Textbook grooming. Deny deny...if she's so right and says she's doing what is best for her kids, why not own this shit? Say it loud and proud.
No, it's only behind closed doors...
Objective achieved. Here we are, talking about her date/not a date and not discussing the H situation and the horror that entails.
Whatever. Whoever took the pics did not have Kate's disapproval because we know how aggressive she is about not allowing herself to be photographed when she doesn't want to be. Smoke and mirrors. She's still an adulterer and child abuser.

The PR machine is well oiled. Google her name and all you get is her dating a millionaire. No sign of her screaming at Jon's house on the first page in the search. No conspiracy or set up? Right.
*******************************************
I thought that was strange as well. The prison escape story is maybe the 5th or 6th article that pops up.How is that? Who makes that happen? Who is paying for that?
*****
I use Bing rather than Google for searches. Just now (10:20 a.m. Pacific time), I typed in Kate Gosselin and the first story on the page was "Jon Gosselin Calls Child Services on Kate Gosselin, Custody Battle Takes Nasty Turn: …" Celeb Dirty Laundry Entertainment News.
However, every other story following was about the alleged date with a millionaire. I wonder if he really is a millionaire, or if that's inflated. Although there were some allegations of physical violence during his divorce from his first wife, they are now supposedly amicable and it might have been more a case of divorce craziness than a pattern of spousal abuse during their marriage.
If these two really are dating, and have been since October, then perhaps Kate is looking beyond her TLC paycheck and trying to hook herself a wealthy husband. If this guy really does have millions and he's already been through one divorce, I would think he'd want a pre-nup.
It's funny: Looking at all the links on the dating story, most of them have a picture of Kate and a picture of Prescott, but not one of them posing together. Now the latest story on ROL is that Prescott is not looking to get married again. Awwwwww! There goes Kate's hopes.
Also, ROL is unclear as to the meaning of "gushed."
"In January, Prescott gushed about his new girl to Radar in an exclusive interview. 'Kate is a great candidate for a business leader and a good mom,' he said."

It is not illegal to have a few drinks and drive.
___
I thought it was against the law to operate a motor vehicle under any influence. One drink for some maybe be enough or one drink may not be enough.\
*********************
In California, it is illegal to drive with a greater than .08 blood alcohol level. Of course, how can any of us know what our blood alcohol is, unless we own and carry with us some testing equipment. My own rule of thumb is that if I am out and I want to have a drink, I limit it to one alcoholic drink and I drink it slowly and have something to eat with it, either a meal or at the very least, peanuts or chex mix or whatever the bar provides.
It's been a long time since I spent an evening out with drinks included, but when I might be out somewhere and consume more than one alcoholic drink, I will stop drinking roughly one to one and half hours before I plan to drive home, and I also will eat some food to help absorb the alcohol.

You bring up a good point Chef.
She's clinging to Steve for years and year and it's clear he's decidedly unavailable or even if he were available, obviously hasn't married her.
*******
And I forget who wrote that they don't want to see Steve leave Gina for Kate, because then Kate would have gotten her way and "won" once again.
I say, blech. She can have him.
That's isn't winning in my book. A man who treats his wife like Gina has been treated, who has had a mistress for years, if true?
That's no man that I'd want.
That's not winning.
I think most of us would unhook and throw him back into the sea...
********************
Yup. I think Steve is only with Kate when he's getting paid to be with her, whether by TLC during filming or when she herself pays for his "protection." And it appears that Gina accepts that this is part of his job and how he brings home the money that pays the bills.
I think it would be hilarious if Steve actually left his wife for Kate, because I know as time passed, she'd treat him just as badly as she did Jon. It's in her nature. She'd be constantly checking her bank balances to be sure he wasn't stealing from her, reviewing his credit card statement to be sure he didn't buy a sandwich (I hate liars!), and any other instances of him disobeying her specific orders.
In the meantime, he'd be constantly trying to sneak time away from her crazy self, gaining weight and losing his hair.
I still think this Kate/Jeff thing is a set up. Now Jeff's family is making comments.
ROL has a story quoting a "family friend" saying that Jeff is not looking to marry Kate. They also have another story quoting Jeff's ex-wife saying that she happy for him that he's dating Kate.
When the first stories about Kate and Jeff came out, none of Jeff's family said anything, except for someone claiming to be Jeff's brother who said that they weren't dating.
This all started with the pictures that someone conveniently was able to take at 2 different locations, but happen to give to the same website. If 2 different people took the pictures, what is the likelihood that they would both go to ET?
And why would a random stranger go to ET, not TMZ or ROL. ROL has been the mainstay in posting stories about Kate. Plus both ROL and TMZ have their tip lines prominently displayed on their websites. On ET, you have to scroll to the bottom, and look at the choices listed to find their tip line.
Maybe it was a friend of Jeff's that took the pictures. There's too much detail in the whole story. With Jeff's family now speaking out, I still think it was someone that Jeff or Kate knows that took those pictures and started the ball rolling on this story.
I guess she really is a witch if she could be in 2 places at one time. According to her on Sunday it was just her and the kids, always, all alone. But then let's not forget, she claimed that being away one week and home another worked best for her and her family.
Gone a week and I be the first thing she did was have one of her epic "meltdowns" upon her return.
I took a look at the people that Kate follows. There are two people that live in Kate's area. Chris Sam(Reading) and Morgan Turner(Elizabethtown). I think Morgan is Carla's daughter-in-law, not sure who Chris Sam is.
Although, neither of them are active on twitter right now, it's possible that tweet(as a DM) was meant for one of them.
Hmm, there's a Christopher Sam that works for the Wymossing police department. Want to bet that's who that tweet was for?
Okay, I think a line has been crossed here. Why are the names of private citizens being used on this blog?
Just finished the Mother's Day Surprise episode. I was expecting it to be much worse than it was. I didn't think Mady was that bad...to me she seem like a typical dramatic teenager who was 'performing' for the camera. And it was my impression of the girls making the greeting cards that they were just acting silly. I thought they were speaking to the camera person in a more joking manner rather than in a rude, bratty manner. I did notice that the older girls did have their arms around the boys quite often. But to be honest, I don't usually scrutinize the kids' behavior that closely because they are a product of their environment & still have a lot of learning & growing up to do. Their mother, on the other hand, is a grown woman who deserves to be criticized for every stupid thing that she says on camera since she should know better.
For example: Twice Kate said "I was literally blown away". Yet there she still was. Maybe someone should explain the meaning of 'literally' to her.
Kate said "By 18 months they (the kids) know right from wrong, good & bad." She's 40. When is she gonna catch up with the kids in that department?
Two other things that she said that had me shaking my head:
When she came out for breakfast she said "Do I get to lounge & such?"
"I've learned to lower my expectations as a single mom".
As pointed out by others, the rest of the show was just Kate retelling her same old story. And no mention of Jon anywhere. Guess she didn't want to speak ill of the dead.
I completely missed the accidental tweet, you guys! What did it say?

This kind of infuriates me. There was talk that local LE enabled her by looking the other way while she sped, parked illegally, etc. The fact that she has an LE on speed dial to check on Jon is disgusting.
Anyone know where Jon lives? Don't mean the address but the municipality, and the type of house. Was she screaming in the middle of a suburb, a town, or a country road?
Ooooh that burns me up. "Can you do me another favor" (or whatever). He's probably the one she called to say Jon had left Hannah alone. GRRRRRR

Now Jeff's ex-wife is chiming in? How bizarre! Seems the whole family is giving Radar et. al. the "scoop".
Very conflicting scoop, but scoops nonetheless.
Didn't his ex-wife make a battery complaint and file charges? And I thought I read that he wasn't paying his child support.
And, and...isn't he 57?
And, didn't he change his name (quite late in the game and why??)?
This is smelling like 3-day old fish if you ask me.

I have driven home from Philly late at night after sports events and concerts and it has never taken me longer than an hour to get home. Unless he was totally bombed, or they both were, there would be no reason for them to stay overnight in a hotel, unless they wanted some snuggling time.
I still haven't caught up with all the posts. Where was it reported that they were seen a-smoochin' but that there are no photos?
Why are we discussing 3 1/2 year old tweets. I'm lost here.
For example: Twice Kate said "I was literally blown away". Yet there she still was. Maybe someone should explain the meaning of 'literally' to her.
&&&&&&&&&&&&&
It's a buzz word right now, like amazing and awesome. Most people who use it have no idea what it means. If you read the timelines of some of these young fans, everything is literally this and literally that.
Wait. This ex-wife who is saying he's a good man is the same one he allegedly committed domestic violence against?
Hmm, there's a Christopher Sam that works for the Wymossing police department.
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
LOL, KIAT. It's Wyomissing, pronounced Why o miss ing, with the accent on "miss."
Well, I still think this is a set-up/staged/publicity stunt. He gets publicity and Kate gets publicity. The person who took the pics, followed them, since the pics were not professional, I think this person was hired to take pics of them. Now InTouch rag-mag says Jeff Prescott or whatever his name is, is not looking for marriage of any kind If that is so, this date was a publicity stunt for both of them. Cause, if it is not, then Kate is a liar. She lied several months ago saying they are just business partner/friends. Course, she lied/re-wrote history on the Mothers Day special.
Maybe, Kate realized she was tryin to re-write history and this stuff with the kid & Jon, trying to throw everyone off, with a so-call date with Jeff what's his name.
I would not trust a guy who changes his name. To me he sounds like he was trying to hide from someone or avoid something. Does not sound like an honest person, sounds shady, not kosher. Even his age is questionable: some docks have his age as 59 others as 51?
Now the latest story on ROL is that Prescott is not looking to get married again. Awwwwww! There goes Kate's hopes.
&&&&&&&
What if she gets pregnant and a shot-gun wedding is the only option?
Karen Kauffman (90): "Whoever took the pics did not have Kate's disapproval because we know how aggressive she is about not allowing herself to be photographed when she doesn't want to be. "
)))))))))))))))))
Maybe she didn't know the photos were taken, thus she couldn't have voiced her approval or disapproval. Steve wasn't there to order the person to delete the pictures, so even if she knew, what could she have done?
Thanks, localyocal! Grrrr! Her words are enough to make me mad, but it's even worse knowing the timing and context now. And if that is the cop...ridiculous.
The cops helped Kate a lot when she was chased by paps, and I think that's a good thing. However, they aided her in speeding and breaking traffic laws right and left, and for that, they should be accountable.
Now InTouch rag-mag says Jeff Prescott or whatever his name is, is not looking for marriage of any kind If that is so, this date was a publicity stunt for both of them.
--------------------
So with this reasoning, a guy doesn't go anywhere with a woman unless he has immediate marriage in mind, and if he does date, it's all a publicity stunt? I guess times have changed, huh? :)

He uses his real name on twitter, tweets familiarly with a "celebrity", and is not hiding himself in anyway so seems fair game to me. She follows a guy she obviously knows, because he asked her to, then they tweet about DMs. I don't get the problem here.
Localyocal, I was wondering the same thing. I don't know if Jon is currently in a neighborhood where lots of people would hear her or notice cops. Or if he's out in the boonies again. I don't even know if he's in an apt or a house. I wish someone else would come forward. But who wants to deal with Kate and Steve and fans calling your work just for confirming a cop car was on the street?
Maria @77 - You did a cut and paste of my post but did you actually read it? I did not make any wild assumptions in my post @29. I pointed out what bottle service is and I never said that anyone was driving drunk. What I said was "That would be more than a couple of drinks with dinner and that, to me, is DRINKING AND DRIVING." Drinking and driving and driving drunk are two entirely different things. Thank you for your opinion though.
I don't have kids. I have never been in a custody dispute. The story says Jon was not allowed to keep Hannah indefinitely, she went back to the others. Let's say the court does evaluate the children to determine their psychological health. This is going to take a while, isn't it? Any changes to the custody agreement could take months. Then what if Kate ignores that, too? We've already understood she doesn't always deliver the children as required. Unless Jon is granted primary custody of any of the kids, I don't see how their life would change. This judge appears to have already made up his mind to leave the kids with Kate unless she really injures one. I don't know how seriously this judge will take Hannah's complaints. I had always understood you had to be a little older, maybe around 14, before most judges will let the kid choose.
I don't know about you, but where I sit, and read, this Jeff Prescott romance/marriage speculation is a whole lot of phooey. He's a much older man with some dubious financial/marital chapters in his past and she's an aging, shrewish, quite likely asexual, has been reality TV person with 8 teen/preteen children. Phooey.

I don't think this was a publicity stunt. I think they've been seeing each other (whether romantically or not) more so for business reasons. I'm sure he wants her to invest money into a venture which she'll probably see a good return from. (I'm sure Steve already vetted him to make sure he's not a sleezy businessman.)
I also think he wants to bed Kate...but not marry her.

It's a buzz word right now, like amazing and awesome. Most people who use it have no idea what it means. If you read the timelines of some of these young fans, everything is literally this and literally that.

Yes, PA Dutch Mom, I understand how young people today are using the word "literally" to mean, well, "figuratively". But my point was that Kate is not so young & it just sounds so silly coming out of her mouth - "I was...(pause) LITERALLY (said with emphasis) blown away".
I notice he is associated with two foundations. I wonder if he is trying to either get her to set up a foundation or join one of his. Some foundations can actually be quite profitable for individuals and not only as an income tax dodge. If she sees him as a succesful business man, she might be interested in his advice. I sure hope, for the sake of the children, Steve has done a background check on him and his business dealings. From what I've read about him, he does seem on the shady side.

Yep! I agree. Double phooey on the whole thing. I don't give a flying fig who she's doing or not doing. She's getting way too much attention from this outing with #whatshisname.
Yes. Celeb or rich people "foundations" are often just another money make venture. While on paper they may be "non profit" the true intention is to create publicity and/or to tie it to some other for-profit venture. For instance a wealthy plastic surgeon might have a "cleft palate" foundation for poor children but the real intention is to be able to slap their name and practice on every single flyer that goes out and drive in business.
The celeb "foundation" I was around cough cough was so embarrassingly self serving I wanted to choke. It never raised a cent but did create nice opportunities to brush shoulders with lots of B listers.

***************
Jeanne, in PA there is no required age for children to decide with whom they want to live. However, there must be a good reason. The child is interviewed privately by the court, and a decision is rendered. Kids as young as 10 do have the right to be heard, but the reason they want to move can't be because the other parent lavishes them with gifts, or they are allowed to stay up late, etc. It must be a darn good reason for wanting to move into the other parent's house.
This has a familiar ring, doesn't it? How tragic.

This is right up Kate's alley. Her sense of self-importance would delude her into thinking slapping her name on a foundation will somehow make it soar without lifting a finger.
She's done nothing to build a foundation on, so good luck with that.
I was just reading on the official Dancing With the Stars message board. In the course of discussing another topic, the question of the worst contestant in history came up. Here is one of the shorter posts:

I'm with you on that one. She's historically gone the publicity stunt route, but I just don't think this is one of them. Someone saw them together, snapped some poor quality pictures, followed them, and sold them to a tabloid.
My question would be how she could go out and about without her rode (sic) manager guarding her body.

I would hope that that child's wanting to live with the other parent is good enough. Maybe a kids just knows they'd be happier.

I seem to remember Jon saying he lived with his dad because that's just where he felt he wanted to be.

Robert wrote about cops (sorry, forget if local or state) basically escorting Kate across county lines, at very high speeds. IIRC, they watched as she drove across traffic lanes and pulled u-turns illegally. Again, to evade paps etc.

That makes him a good fit for Katie.
I won't be donating or investing.
I remember several years ago, during a Gosselin Easter egg hunt that it was Hannah that allegedly sported a large bruise on her back. There was a lot of debate on the various boards(I think this board also) about this "bruise". Some posters said it was a shadow, others stated Asian children are prone to splotches on the skin, others insisted it was a bruise etc. At that time I never took abuse allegations against Kate seriously but now I most definently believe them. I am surprised that Hannah also suffers Kate's wrath because I always assumed she was Kate's favorite.
I guess we're trying for disingenuous today? And it's four stories, Milo, but nice try.

Am I the only one who wonders if the children endure remarks (bullying) at school about all the "press" their parents get.

It looks like the Hannah story bots are hitting Kate's timeline. Finally.
Shades of South Pacific is not where I was heading. What I meant to say is that not only is there a decently large age difference, but I hardly see a man approaching 60 wanting an instant family of 8 kids. And those kids for that matter, And 40 year old TFW is hardly a dewy Nellie Forbish. Kate is a shrewish piece or work with more than a few trunks of issues. I still say it's a whole lot of phooey.
Orange Crusher 1
I think this Jeff Prescott guy is at least a little shady. In the past, he has declared bankruptcy twice, and at some point legally changed his name. I think he did this perhaps to repair his credit rating. As to being abusive to his first wife, during their divorce, she gave deposition testimony that stated he came to her hotel room, banged on the door and demanded to be let in, she let him in and the arguing escalated until at one point he pushed her against the wall and threatened her with further violence. She also related an episode while they were married when he had a jealous outburst. If those were the only incidents, then I don't see a case for calling him a wife beater, but I would say he is a guy a woman ought to think twice about before dating. I have also heard elsewhere on the internet that his charitable foundations are hard to find reliable information on. That might indicate they are shells for something else, or just a way for him to make himself sound important.
I don't really care who Kate dates. Anyone who ends up married to her would regret it. The kids don't need a father - they already have one. However, if Prescott is fame hungry, maybe he thinks he could be featured on the show as a love interest, and maybe Kate thinks that would encourage TLC to spring for more episodes.
I will say I wasn't impressed with his date outfit, nor Kate's. She's never been able to dress herself without help. Maybe he's in the same boat.
Chef Antonia who has a show on the food network also has a 14 year old daughter. Her child's father, who was a somewhat famous rapper, died a few years ago from a blood clot. She says she doesn't call herself a single mom though because she has soooo much help with her daughter.
It's refreshing to see a celeb own that.
"Fired Up 4 Kate @MiloandJack 11m11 minutes ago

Jon was trending too.
That list of TFW's appearances and speaking engagements out
of state is an eye opener. To hear her tell it, she was home all
day every day for years, single-handedly caring for 8 children
while rummaging through the sofa cushions for spare change,
and praying for paper towels to arrive at the front door. How
does traveling "hither, thither and yon" synch up with the lifestyle
she pretends she had? Most of that schedule was for locations
out of state, which would include hotel stays. Hmmm...wouldn't
being away overnight constitute "leaving the house," which she
said she never did? Even the local appearances probably
included meals, or at least a per diem for her to spend on
herself. And yet she'd often refer to dining out as a "rare treat."
She's a complete and total phony.
Jeff sounds like one of those rich people who have gotten there due to tremendous ego, fearlessness and aggressiveness. When you're that kind of person sometimes ethics go out the window. He's got quite the history and with everything new that is revealed more questions arise. More than can just be overlooked as a one or two-time incident.
Even the fact that he swaggers into a nice evening out looking like a slob says a lot about him, ego wise. I've met rich people like that. I'm so rich I can prove it to you by walking into someplace nice looking like a slob and STILL being "the man." It's not very attractive but why am I not surprised Kate's into that sort of nonsense.

Maybe her obsession with Kate and Twitter at least keeps her out of LOM's hair (if he has any) and therefore this is actually a good thing for him! She's pestering Kate and Kate's twitter friends, and he has some peace and quiet for himself. I can't imagine living with someone this obnoxious and annoying. I wonder what happens when he flips the light switch for the night. Does she shut up, or just keep annoying him with her lust/love for Kate? Yap, yap, yap and yap some more!
She says she doesn't call herself a single mom though because she has soooo much help with her daughter.

It looks like a bruise to me.

Don't feel special, Kate, about the trending. "The real reason why we get gas" was also on that list.

Exactly. And what they don't get is that for Antonia to just be honest with viewers about the situation makes people like her. She's not perfect, other people watch her kid a lot and she works a lot, but her child is well cared for like any other busy mom's child should be. I think most viewers prefer celebs to be real.
I really like Antonia. She's very likable and quite modest. You can just tell she's genuinely a very nice person. When she judges cheftestants on Cutthroat Kitchen it kills her to tell people they didn't make the cut.

But if you look at A's shirt he's got a showdow on it from a tree and I think that's why many think it's just a shadow on her back as well. I really don't know but lean more towards shadow because even TFW wouldn't be stupid enough to let her wear a sundress with a bruise that size.
IMO, that is DEFINITELY a bruise on Hannah's back!
CPS should interview the kids when their at Jon's house. If the kids are away from Kate maybe they will tell what really goes on behind close doors.
Now it makes sense why he changed his name from
Jeffery Allen Jones To Jeff Prescott, he has 22 ARREST RECORDS, BARNSTABLE, MA
http://www.maarrests.org/
....
Which one is he?
I see Kate has resurfaced. Not a word about the so-call date, only about the one twins drama show, and going to bed. I wonder how long if any will Kate make a statement about the so-call date? Or is Kate waiting for a Talk show or Talk rag or mag to call her or invite her on a show?
I think this is a publicity stunt, as someone here suggested, a pitch for a new reality show, with Kate dating a millionaire. Jeff & Kate both win. Kate gets a new show and this guy gets on TV. Oh, clever Kate. After all Kate said originally, their meeting was business. The guy who took the pics was a friend of probably his. Comon people how many normal people, unless your a fan, would be at Kate house, cause this person knew what kind of car Jeff drove, what time he picked her up and where they went, and after dinner followed them to another place? And Jeff did nothing about taking the pics. 3 pics only? This is staged, maybe part of Kate & jeff new business.
chefsummer, it is good to see you posting again. I was going to tell you when you started posting after a while, then all Hannah broke out!
I just looked at Hannah's bruises. It looks horrible. It looks to me like 2 welts, one on the flat shoulder blade and then on the upper left. It can't be shading, because there is nothing there to make it shaded. The tup girls all had matching sundresses on, so it surprises me that she would allow her to wear it with those bruises where it could be photographed. But thank goodness she did, because we can see the evidence of the abuse.
I agree, Jeff dresses like a bum and TFW dresses like a tart.
Bumtart
Those sickening tweets that Milo are spouting today are vomit worthy.
They would place very high on the Vomit-Fest Meter!
It doesn't matter if you're rich or poor when you're in a new relationship you make an effort to look your best. They both looked like crap. Kate looks better when she goes to Target.
Btw, in those pictures there is zero chemistry between Kate and fake boyfriend!
I thought those were shadows. An abuser would make sure bruises are covered up.
Maybe Prescott and Kate are perfect for each other...both scammers. In the end, it would be bankruptcy. That seems to be the road those two are heading down. Perhaps the guy is using Kate for her money? Justice. Finally.
She must be paying this Chris Sam cop, either with $$ or some other way if you get my drift. Don't buy into the cold fish description. She was just cold to Jon once he no longer did her bidding. And she does not give off the rumored lesbo vibes although she may play both teams. She is just nasty looking. No way has she not been with someone since the divorce. That's what she wants the world to believe. Don't narcissists use sex?
The insider said Jon took the young girl into his custody without a court’s order. http://www.inquisitr.com/2090620/jon-gosselin-custody-update-kate-gosselins-ex-takes-emergency-custody-of-daughter-11/
0000000000000000
Wow..this was such a deja Vu of what happened to me when my dad tried to get custody of me and my sibs. When I was 10, my two sis, me and one of my brothers had to live with my dad and stepmom during the time my dad took my mom to court for custody. One night, I'm can't remember what happened, my stepmother told me that "if your mother ever does that again, I'll call the cops and she will never get out of jail". I called my mom crying and told her. All I remember is the extreme fear I felt for my mom. Really it was more like a panic. She sent my brother-in-law to get us and that really seemed to be the turning point where my mom won custody. We grew up on welfare, an unclean house and really raised ourselves. I'll tell you what though, I would have not changed it if I could. Every one of us have a good heart and care for others. The final ruling from the judge, what he actually said was, "I would rather have these children grow up in a dirty home with love in it than a clean one without love", AND I AGREE! That is why I have no doubt that those kids would be better off with Jon. God bless you Jon, keep going.
Is it a bruise or isn't it? I'm thinking it's not (is the dress white or blue?)
but that just means she didn't have a bruise at that particular moment. If a woman can beat a defenseless baby, whip a baby, ABUSE A BABY, she ABSOLUTELY can beat and whip and abuse a 4, 5 , 6...11 year old.
Don't you think she's lost her shit over a squabble, a back talk, a misplaced toy, A STICKER? A LIE? AN EXPULSION?
Think about it? Let's all use our collective critical thinking skills. Let the ones here who were raised by such a person give their expert opinions.
If a baby, and I quote--"at 18 months should know right from wrong" is beaten, whipped and thrown into a crib what do you think she does to an older child who has crossed her?
Think about the words that were used by the source:
"she can't take the cruelty anymore"

This is exactly what I think the G kids felt when they found out their mother was suing their father and basically wanted him behind bars.
I'm sure they've heard her threaten Jon with jail, and know that she did when Jon tried to pick Mady up and keep her for awhile when Kate made them all go to Alaska to film (2, count 'em, 2 tv shows).
I think this is among the worst abuse Kate has yet foisted on her own children. To lash out and try to destroy Jon is a wicked, wicked thing to do, and how anyone doesn't see this a an act of a very sick woman is beyond me.
I recall my mother joking around that she and my father were divorcing. I think I was six.
I was terrified.
I've no idea why she thought is was a good idea to joke around like that, but I remember panicking.
Like I said, I was about six and I can still remember it clear as day.
As to being abusive to his first wife, during their divorce, she gave deposition testimony that stated he came to her hotel room, banged on the door and demanded to be let in, she let him in and the arguing escalated until at one point he pushed her against the wall and threatened her with further violence.
*********************************************
Hmmm, if Jon had let tfw in the house the night she was screaming for Hannah, I think it could have ended up the same way. Curious. Why wasn't she banging on his door as well? Does he have a restraining order? I find it odd she stayed on the street, mind you, when they are in one of their rages....they're not thinking. And they are capable of some atrocious things, but of course when it's over, you are to forget it all happened.
Oh, I'm fine now, don't know what came over me, I'm so stressed, you don't obey...oops-sorry Hannah
And do you see what a slithering evil snake she is? She calls the cops to make false accusations? She is losing her grip on those kids, things are going to escalate. Just like when an abused woman tries to leave, that is the most dangerous time for them. Just like njay shared, look at what they resort to when they know the jig is up?
Btw, in those pictures there is zero chemistry between Kate and fake boyfriend!

Kate's slouching will take its toll one day. She strikes me as always trying to be smaller, and more petite than she really is.
The pic of her slumping down in her chair at the restaurant looks this way.
Of course, Kate's always been slim to skinny, but she'll never be petite and "small boned", and she seems very aware of herself like that.

Hannah's got shadows on her back. So does the boy ahead and to her left.
Bruises don't tend to be monochrome. Sure, an immediate red welt can be seen, but it doesn't turn beige. Bruises turn purples, purplish/blue, greens and yellows.
It's not a bruise.
This photo, I think. was part of a photo op when Kate was being accused of leaving the kids most of the time. Her hair is circa DWTS.
We know for sure she hired people to set up the egg hunt, and it cracks me up that Kate just happens to wander out in full hair and wardrobe.
Yeah, all moms do that!
Actually, she should have worn this outfit out to dinner!
Truly some rich people just don't care. Jeff's totally that type. I know plenty of rich people who wear reebox everywhere and don't comb their hair.

There's definitely an air of hubris to look like this on a date and in a nice dining establishment.

It says a lot about how this man views women and their worth.

Even the fact that he swaggers into a nice evening out looking like a slob says a lot about him, ego wise.
=============
He looks like he was out slopping the hogs and cleaning out the sheep pen and didn't bother to shower or change his clothing. My gosh, man, if you're a millionaire and can drop a couple hundred at a casino, at least buy some jeans that fit!
*******
It looked like he had a deuce in his drawers.

Thanks for summarizing. I think there are red flags all over the place with this guy, and I wouldn't be surprised if this is all being leaked (which I think it is) to introduce the idea of having Kate's show feature "a single mom of 8 starting to date".
Apparently, Growing Up Gosselin failed miserably with the horribly exploitive People magazine cover and article, and 2 disastrous live tv appearances with 2 shell-shocked twins.
Perhaps the guy is using Kate for her money?

I thought that was TFM's job to use KK for $$$.
How junior high for Gladys to comment once again to TFW that
she's "trending" with the news of this date. It's like the nerdy girl
trying to get in with the cheerleader, saying, "Omigosh, since you started dating Tommy, like, the whole school is talking about you!"
It's not supposed to be some status symbol to be in a relationship.
Unless of course you have the maturity of a 12 year old, and/or
if you're only doing it to get attention.
Sorry Milo. TCFW is no longer trending on my homepage. She lasted a day and a half. Guess no one cares who she dates. But surprise, surprise, Jon's been trending since yesterday. We'll see how long he lasts.
So Jones/Prescott has 22 arrest records? I don't recall reading about this guy in our local paper. I did check the Town of Barnstable Property Lookup with regard to the recent sale of his house.
Jeffrey A. Joes purchased a house at 25 Angela Way, W. Barnstable, on July 21, 2003 for the sum of $775,000.
On November 1, 2006, Michelle L. Jones was added as owner for the sum of $1.00.
On January 15, 2010, Michelle L. Jones was removed as owner for the sum of $1.00.
On November 14, 2014, Jeffrey A. Jones sold the property for the sum of $995,000.
The property is described as having 1.15 acres of land with a three storey colonial house and two car garage. It's 2015 assessment is $772,900.
So when did this guy change his name?
As to being abusive to his first wife, during their divorce, she gave deposition testimony that stated he came to her hotel room, banged on the door and demanded to be let in, she let him in and the arguing escalated until at one point he pushed her against the wall and threatened her with further violence. She also related an episode while they were married when he had a jealous outburst. If those were the only incidents, then I don't see a case for calling him a wife beater, but I would say he is a guy a woman ought to think twice about before dating.

He committed domestic violence pure and simple. Even putting your hands on your partner one time is a domestic violence incident. An incident like that could easily land you in jail for a few months and/or having to take a 52 week batterer's intervention program.
She shouldn't be with someone who could explode like that, even if it only happened once. It's not just her. She has eight children, challenging children quite frankly, to think about. How will he react when they test his patience?
She's not only a doofus but she's STUPID and quite frankly, I think she has low self esteem. There are plenty of good men out there who have *never* touched a woman. Have some self esteem enough to find one of those.
Or does she just see his "rich on paper" status. Fool.
