The've done this same exact episode like three times. Kate watches old clips of herself and yammers on pretending she now has introspection. What silliness.

Jeez, Deanna needs to butt out and stfu. Now she's smearing Jon. Unbelievable.

Kate Gosselin ‏@Kateplusmy8 · 4m4 minutes ago
@Lilbee1008 @TLC yes! I can't wait! This was so fun to make and so hilarious..Yrs later.What I would have done differently&what I did WRONG!

Again with the "fun" and "hilarious". I'm sure the kids really thought is was fun while it was happening.

Yeah, I can just see Kate admitting what she did wrong--she didn't have enough help, she didn't get enough sleep, and she never took any time for herself.

Had to chime in said...

Their brain child...I knew they were sharing one. Their brain child is a teen youtube thing, Miranda Sings and others do it. "Miranda sings reacts to..." videos.. She watches her old videos or others' and makes comments. You see her reacting and what she is reacting to in same screen.

Tucker's Mom said...

Deanna is taking on Jon's SH appearance herself. She's way out of place. She's a paid employee and is crossing a professional line.
I'd drop her like a hot potato if I was a celeb who had her do my makeup.

FYI said...

Jeez, Deanna needs to butt out and stfu. Now she's smearing Jon. Unbelievable.

===================

Kate's "source" in the People article said that Kate would never comment on the father of her children. But apparently it's okay with Kate that her "bestest friend" does so.

@mscatie @Oil_Xperts @Kateplusmy8 @TLC The only side of the story that anyone needs is the thoughts and opinions of the kids. Their choice.

Well, geez, Deanna, do you think maybe the kids are simply telling you what their mother has drilled into them?

Kate tweeted this last week:

Kate Gosselin‏@Kateplusmy8 · Jan 19
You can't miss next weeks season finale! It's my second favorite after my Blind Date! #SageAdvice @TLC #KatePlus8

Then tonight she tweets:

Kate Gosselin ‏@Kateplusmy8 · 3h3 hours ago
HEY! Last Tues #KatePlus8 episode was NOT THE SEASON FINALE! It's TONIGHT! All NEW #KatePlus8 at 10pm on @TLC Tonight! #MyALLTimeFavorite1

So which is it, Kate? Last week, the blind date episode was your favoritest episode and now this week's episode it your "all time" favoritest episode.

Guess she forgot what she tweeted last week. Must be that she's so exhausted from being out ALL DAY in the snow that her memory short-circuited.

jamezvader1194 said...

Question?How many views do these looking back episodes usually get?Because decade of Kate was kinda a look back episode and that netted 600,000 viewers.Since this last episode is the live or die episode that effects Kate future filming then i don't think another looking back episode is going to help.

Really? Even iff their "choice" is influenced by a parental alienator

PA Dutch Mom said...

KIAT, yes, the younger kids are in 5th grade and MS is 6th, 7th and 8th.

The closing wasn't announced until last evening, so she would have had to make an emergency call to them. Initially it was a delay, then changed to a closing. She wouldn't have known this ahead of time, unless she saw the snow as a chance to film and would have kept them home regardless of a cancellation. Nothing would surprise me.

FlimsyFlamsy said...

Okay, Deanna, you crossed the line so far you can't even see it anymore.

FlimsyFlamsy said...

And it never occurred to Deanna that these children would lie to their mother's best friend, so as not to incur their mother's wrath? Has she ever met a kid?

Deanna is a tool. It is extremely inappropriate to trash the children's father. I have a question for her, has she ever met or talked to Jon? How does a father show he cares if the mother doesn't send the children to their visits?

Deanna? You're ignorant. Their choice? They are being heavily influenced by their alienated mother.

In actuality, children that age are not old enough to make this decision for themselves, and are highly susceptible to a parent who has proven time and time again she cannot respect their father and his role. They are victims of Kate's alienation, period. Now, you, Deanna, are a participant in the alienation. Jon should get a fucking court order ordering YOU to STFU or go to jail for contempt.

Study some family law, talk to some family law attorneys, and grow the F up. You're 40 years old.

This blog is dedicated to trashing the children's mother and you acted as the mouthpiece for the children's father for a period of time. I don't think you're in any position to proclaim the behavior of others is inappropriate.


&&&&

Bullshit. Deanna is a friend of Kate's and a "character" on the show. She is professing to speak for MINOR CHILDREN and their wishes. Fucked up, period.

That is not the same thing as public people commenting on public figures even if they have happened to met them or spoke to them. I don't consider Kate's fans alienators, including Milo, no more than I consider those who support Jon alienators. But you cross a serious line when you start speaking for the CHILDREN and consulting directly with the children on their wishes. She has no fucking business speaking directly to the children about their views about their father and then disclosing it to the public, and any judge I know would order her to stop immediately, kick her out of his courtroom and promise to hold her in contempt she ever pulls this kind of stunt again.

I guess we do things differently around here. But her ass would be in jail in my neck of the woods, period.

Deanna Bell ‏@deannatweeting · 9m9 minutes ago
@Oil_Xperts @mscatie @Kateplusmy8 @TLC Trust that there are experts involved. The kids are cared for and very happy.

Now she's calling Jon a liar:

Deanna Bell ‏@deannatweeting · 5m5 minutes ago
@Oil_Xperts @runner_pa @mscatie @Kateplusmy8 @TLC No, thats not why. Parents can't prevent visitation no matter lies he told on a talk show.

Deanna Bell ‏@deannatweeting · 4m4 minutes ago
@mscatie @Oil_Xperts @Kateplusmy8 @TLC What 4 day visits/dinners? That is a lie.

Deanna Bell ‏@deannatweeting · 1m1 minute ago
@mscatie @Oil_Xperts @Kateplusmy8 @TLC Only a few visit and never for 3 or 4 days. Trust that there are experts involved.

mscatie ‏@mscatie · 2m2 minutes ago
@deannatweeting @Oil_Xperts @Kateplusmy8 @TLC So you give Jon NO credit for contributing to kids' happiness & well being? Please explain...

Deanna Bell ‏@deannatweeting · 1m1 minute ago
@mscatie @Oil_Xperts @Kateplusmy8 @TLC No I don't. He only sees a few and didn't even give xmas gifts to them all.


So the sheeple, especially Milo, said it was wrong for Jon to discuss custody and private stuff, but apparently it's okay for Deanna to take it upon herself to do so.

Deena really needs to stfu mscatie ‏@mscatie 10m10 minutes ago

I cannot believe what Deanna is doing. She has shifted the energy away from the excitement of the last episode to this pissing match between her and strangers on Twitter. Keep it up, sister. You're showing your true colors.

Realitytvkids.com ~ Administrator said...

That's interesting. I also have seen the parent who cares about the kids' well-being, health and education and it's not Kate. Kate's about $$$; Jon is about the kids.

&&&&&

And that's the thing, Deanna only has seen Kate's perspective. If I only heard Kate's story and never really watched the old episodes of the show or listened to Jon's side of thing with an open mind or have the background in working directly on parental alienation cases as an attorney for fathers, mothers, and children, I'd probably assume to take Kate's side too. There are two sides to every story and Deanna only commingling with Kate then professing to know who is right is disingenuous at best and certainly very ignorant.

And why is Kate discussing all this with Deanna, including that "experts" whatever that means, are involved. Is Kate in violation of a court order not to discuss what is said in family law court? Why should Deanna know what therapists or whatever experts are saying? That's strictly confidential and at least in CA the minor holds the right to that confidentiality.

Deanna conveniently leaves out the complete story and probably doesn't even know it. Maybe Jon didn't give gifts to an estranged child because he knew it would upset them or a therapist suggested it was not a good idea right now. There is at least one child who appears to have some special needs and may be much more sensitive to things like that. There are reasonable explanations for things Deanna may not be privy to just being the toady. Nor does Jon owe her, that little passive aggressive snit, an explanation for why he does anything he does. He should do something about this little rant of hers tonight.

What I do know is that even if it's all 100% true and Deanna is right, despite everything else we've seen to the contrary Jon is a terrible awful person and father, she has no right alienating the children against him. Grow the F up.

PA Dutch Mom said...

Bobblehead has really crossed the line this time and Kate needs to reel her in before she chokes on her foot.

On second thought, let her spew her stuff and hope that Jon sees it and takes action.

And clients would expect this person to be professional and assure that whatever they say to her would be confidential? Baloney!

PA Dutch Mom said...

@msgoody2shoes21 Sad he choose 2discuss private custody issues on TV.. Certainly not the place 2air his grievances. #PublicOpinionCourt

Fired Up 4 Kate ‏@MiloandJack · Jan 21
@msgoody2shoes21 @Kateplusmy8 Kate won't discuss private custody issues in public. Sad that all this is out there again #NotTheProperForum

So she disses Jon, but cheers on Deanna for doing the exact same thing.

@Jane i can still see her tweets,i would have to block her to not see it.She has deleted and put herself to private like Jamie.She really is a snake and i can see why milo loves her.

Susie Cincinnati said...

The smartest thing that Kate could do right now is to put a notice to those on her twitter that it is not acceptable to trash the father of her children in the twitter public forum, and that includes Deanna, the sheep and the non-fans.

Of course, either Kate is too ignorant to do this, or she enjoys the Jon-bashing because others are doing it for her, thus she gets off by saying, "Who? me? I would never say anything about the kids's dad."

Pants on Fire said...

TFW comment during a cute clip of little Leah: "Oh, I want her back!"

TFW comment during a cute clip of little Aaden: "Oh, I want him back!"

TFW comment during a cute clip of the 6 at age 5: "Oh, I want them back!"

How are the kids going to feel when they hear their "mom" say this about them??! Rejected? Unloved and unlovable now that they are no longer cute little tykes?

I hate her more than ever.

Flimsy Flamsy said...

Susie Cincinnati (#43), Deanna bashing Jon is like Christmas morning in January for TFW. Not only won't she stop her, she's probably going to give her a bonus!

Jane said...

It was like a tag team match. Kate tweeting rainbows and teddy bears while Deanna trashed Jon. Several non fans got shots of Deanna's tweets before she blocked nearly everyone and then went private. Although I don't know what can be done with those tweets, which truly were despicable. Radar Online?

The experts must be Steve, Milo, Deck Dude, and Deanna.

Yeah, now she's going to hold her tongue after wagging it to the world.

Jeff Millionaire called Jon basically a bum, so only one side gets told and Kate allows her minions to do the dirty work. Deanna is not professional and she has dug herself into a hole by appearing on the show and defending Kate Gosselin. Kate is a user and Deanna is her most current mouthpiece.

One tweeter did collect many and sent them on to Jon's attorney.

redbird said...

I totally agree with the poster that said that if Deanna was her makeup artist, she would fire her because of her unprofessional behavior with a client's children and speaking like that on social media.

TFW is using Deanna so bad right now it is not even funny. The tweets she has put out there are Kleenex worthy. Those poor kids!

The clip they showed about the RV trip when she was outside of the RV and just griping and griping, she was the problem, even though the RV was boiling all over the place. Did you see her take her fist and hit it very hard into her hand that it made a loud slap sound? All because HER RV was organized, tight ship and packed and ready to go and Jamie's RV was slow, dopey, lazy, zombie, not jumping to her directions.

Couldn't believe she was talking about the food situation in the RV's. They had to pack TONS of food because there were NO RESTAURANTS.

I didn't know they were no restaurants when you go on a cross country trip. Somebody needs to do something about that!

TLC stinks said...

Either she's been renewed or it's wishful thinking. TLC is the worst.

Flimsy Flamsy said...

Pants On Fire (#44), hearing TFW get all moony about the kids when they were tiny is a little hard to swallow when you realize that's the age she was wailing on them, and writing about it in her journal. What she probably likes remembering is that back then, she had tons of help (including her ex, the late Jon Gosselin), and was a media darling. She was on top of the world.

But I agree -- her comments must make the children wonder if they are unlovable at their current age(s).

redbird said...

AuntieAnn, you said you needed an insulin shot reading Deanna's tweets, well, I need a afib pill.

This episode I think is the worst one ever.

When she said of the little girl tup talking, she said, OH! I wish I had her back! Can't imagine how she is going to act in 5 to 10 years wanting them babies back!

Leslie said...

Shame on Deanna, She is an employee of TL--even if it is just contract work. Since when is an employee of TLC allowed to trash the father of kids of one of their shows.

Milo and Deanna are not tweeting each other, really. Those tweets are aimed directly at Kate haters. It reminds me of Jr. High school where you would talk to one person about Person Z, fully knowing Person Z can hear you, and thinking you're too cool for your cleverness. Especially if you talk in code, but Milo and Deanna talk in detail.

Leslie said...

Radar would love to do a story about her tweets..especially since she is an employee of TLC and ALSO an employee of Kate's a lot of the times.

http://www.usmagazine.com/entertainment/news/kate-gosselin-cringes-watching-herself-on-tv-us-at-our-worst-ever-w162576

This was us at our worst ever," Gosselin says in the new episode. "It was just too much stress. The constant breakdowns, the constant whatever — I mean, that would have torn anyone apart."

TLC stinks said...

I'll tell you how the Xmas gifts happened: Jon saw only his regular four kids. There were gifts for all the kids, but they were not allowed to give them to their brothers and sisters per Kate. Remember, Kate DOES NOT allow any gifts from Jon to be brought home. Deanna only repeats what Kate tells her. Toady snit.

Jamesvader1194 said...

@PatK unless she did see what Deena was saying to the haters and it was a taunt because she thinks some of the haters watch.After what Deena did tonight,i hope to God that they don't but sadly i think she'll aggressively push for a sweet 16 special

Leslie said...

I bet anything Deanna has Kate's permission to tweet all of this. She knows how flighty and touchy (gee, I used to words ending "y") not to have gotten Kate's permission ahead of time.

TLC stinks said...

What about grocery stores too? Did they not exist on that RV trip? Interesting that she and Steve took off for several hours in search of organic chicken. They may have gone somewhere, but it was not in search of chicken. You can't tell me someone from the crew did not buy the chicken for filming the cookout.

Leslie said...

Oh man, the fact that she deleted all the tweets knows she SCREWED UP and GOT SCARED! I love this. She is a bobble head nit. Great words for the ugly bitch.

Alberta Girl said...

Wow-this Deanna woman is 40? Unbelievable, yet believable, as Kate is as immature as they come. She just couldn't wait to spout off her opinion on everything. And wasn't she going off on the "haters" a few days ago about keeping the show relevant.

So let me get this straight - Deanna lives and works in NYC, but knows so much about all the daily inner workings of a family in rural Pennsylvania? She must spend all of her spare time there - looks like Kate found herself another BFF that lives closer than Jamie. I wonder what Deanna's special cleaning prowess is? Vacuuming? Mopping? Dusting?

I'm having trouble getting it straight too. And I'm starting to think it's a little creepy, although that may be too strong of a word.

Why is she taking such a huge interest in another woman's children, moreover who live out of state? She can't be a friend or sister who you can call in an emergency, she's several hours away and much more when the weather is bad and works. It's not practical.

Doesn't Deanna have nieces, nephews, or can get some children of her own she can invest in? What about her career, isn't that interesting to her? If she loves children so much, become a foster parent. New York needs plenty of them. It's creepy.

Child exploitation statutes?

FlimsyFlamsy said...

Admin (#67), Deanna said she talks to the kids "constantly." What 40-year-old professional would talk to 11- and 15-year-olds constantly? It's not like they're her nieces and nephews. The more she says, the weirder she sounds.

Sheepless In Seattle said...

Denise ‏@Mydmaxx 56m56 minutes ago
@Kateplusmy8 You once told me....Make memories that count. So true everyday. ❤️

Yes, indeed, Denise. Kids throwing up and lying in their vomit are pleasant memories that will count. I bet they will look back on that time with great fondness, wishing they could do it all over again. Seasickness is such a wonderful part of childhood, a memory that will last forever.

Leslie said...

I bet Deanna has already looked on this blog and had her stomach drop when she saw all her tweets captured on here.

Alberta Girl said...

I totally agree about the xmas presents - probably not allowed to bring anything back and forth.
But again, what a sleazy and immature thing to say about someone you don't even know!
Karma - it will come back around eventually.

Flimsy #56 - good point, remembering that TFW was beating on her little kids around that time, as well as having lots of help.

Sheepless In Seattle said...

Child exploitation statutes?

-----------------

Something like a vanilla envelope statute! Or was it a bobblehead statue? Gladys does tend to screw up the English language. I guess Kate taught her well.

jolie Jacquelyn said...

Why didn't they show the episode where TFW was so busy choosing free beds she couldn't be bothered helping poor little Colin ? Or the Alaska trip that she ruined for the kids? I'd like to see her try explaining her behaviour away then.

Concerning the episode where TFW jumps off a building, tonight she confessed that she never did email an apology to the employee for her "mean" behavior - and that even though this happened years ago, she would still send him an apology.

MmmmmmHmmmmmm

Somebody tweeted Kate tonight and asked if there was a second date. She tweeted back,"Maybe". Yup, she is in middle school. I wish somebody would tweet Kate that there are ugly comments about her on the US Naval Academy facebook: Maybe that would shut up up

NYY Julianna said...

Ncgirl, 47:

"Yeah, now she's going to hold her tongue after wagging it to the world."

88888888888888

Deanna's holding her tongue tweet reminds me of a quote from Henry IV Part 2:

"Upon my tongues continual slanders ride,
The which in every language I pronounce,
Stuffing the ears of men with false reports.”

At some point, Deanna's tongue will wag again. She is so much like Milo and she just cannot help herself. For a forty-year-old "professional" woman, there is something most indubitably missing in the maturity department! Let her wag. She may not be able to undo what has been done.

They may have gone somewhere, but it was not in search of chicken.

====================

No doubt someone got plucked that night.

Admin (#67), Deanna said she talks to the kids "constantly." What 40-year-old professional would talk to 11- and 15-year-olds constantly? It's not like they're her nieces and nephews. The more she says, the weirder she sounds.


&&&&

I think that's very weird. Before she presented herself as a family friend who came out whenever she had a free weekend now and again to hang out with Kate or do makeup for an episode. She was nice to the kids and they saw her as a big sister or aunt or whatever. Fine, that's cool. In fact I didn't even really think she came out much unless she was doing makeup for something. I never got that impression.

Now by Deanna's own admission she's indicating she is a constant presence, talking to the children constantly and now about very serious issues with their father. I'm sorry, that's odd. Very odd. She is not their mother, their aunt, their therapist, or even a teacher. It's strange. Shouldn't she be dating? Hanging out with people her age on weekends? I hope there's nothing unhealthy about her interest in the children and she's just being a latch-on. It's not like TLC has never had someone on their payroll who was off. Cough.

Jamesvader1194 said...

i do not think those kids tell Deena everything that goes on in that house.If what Deena said is true then why were there film crew and nannies that left because of how Kate treated the kids?Deena's words are basically contradicting them all and she is also calling all those people liars as well as Jon.

Realitytvkids.com ~ Administrator said...

I have another thought about Deanna's nasty comment about Jon not giving xmas gifts to some of the children. The fact that it was SOME is a very important fact. If he were just mean and nasty he wouldn't' give gifts to any of them.

So does she mean to imply to us that children who are refusing to see their father are still demanding gifts? That sounds very spoiled and dysfunctional. It doesn't work that way. You don't get to run the show and dictate what your father will do for you while you decide to manipulate your contact with him and put him on an emotional roller-coaster. I don't think so, kids.

If a child wants to be estranged from the father then that includes everything. You can't have it both ways. You can't have contact that directly benefits you like gifts and then turn around and say sorry dad I don't want to see you.

Whatever, Deanna. I'm sure many therapists would say if you are going to respect a child estranging you that means in full, including avoiding trying to bribe them out of it with gifts or guilt trip them with gifts. I don't think she hast the foggiest idea of the complexities of this situation and what a fine line it is being the victim of parental alienation.

That said, I imagine Kate is not helping along whatever discord is occurring. I can just picture her saying I can't believe your father didn't give you a Christmas gift. To a child who has made it clear he will refuse to visit and wants no contact.

I have a question, did all of the children get JON a Christmas gift??? I bet Deanna has no idea because I really don't believe she knows 10% of this situation.

N.E. Psychologist said...

In actuality children that age are not old enough to make this decision for themselves, and are highly susceptible to a parent who has proven time and time again she cannot respect their father and his role. 18

They absolutely are no capable of making informed decisions and are extremely susceptible to the views of their custodial parent.

Rhymes with Witch said...

And I'm starting to think it's a little creepy, although that may be too strong of a word. 70

I think creepy is putting it mildly. Her interest isn't in the children, it's about defending Katie.

Mel said...

Those spoiled kids are old enough to understand that it's a two way street.

You don't get Christmas gifts from someone you refuse to ever see. Entitled much?

How come their crew daddies didn't bring them a wad of gifts??

Sandylove said...

I keep getting distracted by her turkey neck. I swear she has the neck of a 70 year old woman.

YouReapWhatYouSow said...

Let's face it, Deanna would never have posted those comments without TFW's permission or perhaps prodding. We know she gets others to do her dirty work. Milo is another example. Neither would post such things unless TFW approved it. God forbid they get on the bad side of their queen.

Aside from that, my guess is Jon did buy all of his kids gifts, but wanted to give the gifts to each child in person. I feel terrible for C. There will be hell to pay one day when C realizes the manipulation that has gone on, and the days he missed with his dad.

Tucker's Mom said...

Jon should get a fucking court order ordering YOU to STFU or go to jail for contempt.

Study some family law, talk to some family law attorneys, and grow the F up. You're 40 years old.
*******
Unless Deanna and Kate are together as a couple, I don't get why Deanna has invested in Kate and her family drama like this.
It's way out of line. I can't imagine getting so embroiled in the life and controversies of a friend.
It's beyond unprofessional and she's damaging her career and whatever reputation she might have.
Friend, lover, whatever-she's going to be kicked to the curb eventually.

Wowser said...

I think her tweets about more shows are BS and it's her FU to get her haters riled up.

Tucker's Mom said...

She has no fucking business speaking directly to the children about their views about their father and then disclosing it to the public, and any judge I know would order her to stop immediately, kick her out of his courtroom and promise to hold her in contempt she ever pulls this kind of stunt again.

I guess we do things differently around here. But her ass would be in jail in my neck of the woods, period.
*******
I hope Jon takes action and shuts Deanna down.
No one here professes to know the kids, or have first-hand knowledge of their wishes, let alone broadcast said wishes on social media.
This is a BLOG of like-minded people, who discuss with one another. We do not broadcast our thoughts her on social media, although people on Twitter often pick up our posts and put them on Twitter.
You'd have to seek this blog out to read our thoughts. It's not like putting it out on social media for all the world to see.

Tucker's Mom said...

What I do know is that even if it's all 100% true and Deanna is right, despite everything else we've seen to the contrary Jon is a terrible awful person and father, she has no right alienating the children against him. Grow the F up.

******
Further, it's not a point of pride IF those kids prefer to stay home instead of seeing their father. Rather, it is a massive failure on both parents part because they have let their acrimony affect the children.
Neither parent should think it's "winning" if a child eschews the other parent.
That's just sick.
You have and are failing your child if you don't do everything possible to have both parents involved.

This is one of the worst family outcomes of divorce that I've ever seen.

Tucker's Mom said...

Of course, either Kate is too ignorant to do this, or she enjoys the Jon-bashing because others are doing it for her, thus she gets off by saying, "Who? me? I would never say anything about the kids's dad."
*******
This goes to those who know Kate and say she's very, very charismatic and can manipulate people to her will.
Deanna is just the latest to become mired in Kate's drama.

It was like a tag team match. Kate tweeting rainbows and teddy bears while Deanna trashed Jon. Several non fans got shots of Deanna's tweets before she blocked nearly everyone and then went private. Although I don't know what can be done with those tweets, which truly were despicable. Radar Online?

You can't erase tweets. If Jon wants to take action, he will have no problem getting those tweets.

At least she'll have lots of company there.

Yes!!! This is so true. TFW would probably contact her lawyer immediately.

It is very important for the kids to have good relationships with both parents. TFW can degrade Jon all she wants but when the kids get older, they will see through her. Had a similar situation with an in-law and when the girls got older, they figured it out.

BTW, just realized that when I use my iphone (PINK! jk) that my user name is swimmermama.

MikeB said...

I'm sure they will be back. The seven previous episodes averaged 1 million viewers. I think the question is how many episodes will make up a season. The tups birthday has been filmed the last two years and I don't see any reason why TLC and Kate would stop now. Filming in May would also provide a decent lead-in to a Memorial day trip. I don't think there is much after that. I'm betting the future seasons may be only three or four episodes each.

We'll see.

Sketchy Gosselin said...

I watched the Radar Online short clip. To blame and make the excuse that your bad behavior is due to exhaustion and you're exhausted all the time (which means you can have bad behavior all the time) is LAME. LAME LAME LAME. And then to say (or maybe she implied - I don't know and I am not going to watch the clip again) that all parents are exhausted is just wrong. She cannot (will not) own up to her bad behavior.

Normal people would want nothing to do with a friendship like this. Too much ex drama, too much kid drama. Too much fan and hater drama. Or, if they did choose to be Kate's friends they would have clear boundaries in which they don't delve too deep into that side of things.

In Jamie's defense, she more or less stays out of it and is just Kate's friend. I can actually respect that.

When I'm exhausted I get quieter, more reserved, less engaged with what's happening around me until I pass out lol. If you're exhausted why would you start snapping like a nut job, that just makes you more tired!

If this is really her regular M.O. I would encourage her to seek out therapy and perhaps an anger management class to help her better manage whatever gets set off in her when she's tired. She also might ask for a sleep study, since as far as I can tell she gets plenty of rest every single day. She doesn't work, she has a full time nanny, she can get eight hours of sleep at night and as many naps as she wants during the day. Something is wrong.

Seems like Jamie is keeping herself and thankfully, her kids, out of the drama that is Kate Gosselin's life. Good for her.
I hope she doesn't go back to filming with Kate, especially with her kids.
Also, I don't think Jamie ever got into it on Twitter with the haterz.
If Jamie is focusing on her own family and marriage, that's a good thing.

JoyinVirginia said...

Also just an example from friends personal experience. Their son went thru contentious divorce and custody battle in court. One day during this he went to pick up child from his soon to be ex, and mother refused to let child go with father. He did call police, who came and filed a report but declined to force mother to give child to gather, they told father he should file complaint with The court the next day. The police report helped him get the child for visitation later in the week, but the police don't always enforce an offer, depends on circumstances and area you live.

Realitytvkids.com ~ Administrator said...

Deanna's insane. She gloats (which is F-ed up to begin with) the children have "chosen" (like a child that young has the capacity to make a choice like that--they don't) to not see Jon, and yet turns right around and gets pissed off he didn't give them gifts? That IS spoiled. I don't want to see you Dad, but I better get the iPhone I asked for for xmas.

I wouldn't be at all surprised if a therapist or child development instructor has advised Jon that giving a child refusing to see him gifts is confusing for the child, upsetting, or encourages and rewards spoiled and entitled behavior. It encourages the alienation--it's okay to continue to alienate me, there are no consequences to it. In fact you get all the spoils of a relationship without all the work involved.

Don't do it. Deanna has no idea who Jon has talked to and what experts HE has consulted in the name of doing what is best for his children, including xmas gifts.

Deanna's not a parent but you don't need to be a parent to understand that sometimes parents have to make TOUGH choices and that it's not as black and white as Deanna would love the fans to believe. Jon bad, Kate good. It don't work that way.

That is really too bad. They are not doing their job and I would actually ask to call their supervisor or the chief of police and complain if they refuse to enforce court orders.

If you have a court order in your hands, the police are supposed to enforce it. They are the people we pay tax dollars to to enforce are laws. If they can't help out a simple family law dispute what good are they?

Here, they always turn the kids over if you have the order. Never heard a parent complain they didn't. In fact what I've heard is police say they have no CHOICE but to turn the kids over.

If Jon is having problems with the police turning his kids over, I would encourage him to go higher up.

Re: Jamie. Kate's kids treat Jamie's kids like crap. The girls are mean and snotty with Clay, so if I was Jamie I'd keep my kids away from them. She can be friends with Kate without having their kids be friends. Idk, I don't get the vibe that Jamie wants to be a 'celebrity' but I think Deanna does. She's a makeup artist (and not a very good one at that). It's like she's standing on the outside of the cool kids clique (celebrities) wanting to get in but can't. She works for them. Kate lets her in b/c she obviously kisses her butt and Kate likes that, so...

I don't blame Jamie at all for distancing herself from TFW and the G kids at all! Several of the G kids were nasty and rude to Jamie's kids and snotty Kate blamed it on Jamie's kids and did NOTHING to correct her own kids' behavior. I think the RV trip and the Palin trip proved what a selfish irresponsible parent she is. And look how that is working out for her.

Realitytvkids.com ~ Administrator said...

I think Jamie can be a dolt but I always got the sense she was more genuine than some of the scant other friends Kate's collected.

I guess she met Kate in a multiples support group or something? That's a rather non-nefarious way to meet. I think the fact that she lived out of state and didn't see Kate much prevented her from seeing the worst of Kate. She also never struck me as too fan-boy. I don't get the sense she watched every episode or cared much about the drama with Jon or anything.

She saw Kate's true colors on the Yellowstone trip because she spent a lot of time with her, and she came around and was saying the things we say about Kate. She saw Kate was being nuts and what's more stuck her neck out and wasn't afraid to say so. I appreciate someone like that.

She also has a normal life at home with a husband and kids and unlike Deanna, seems to prioritize her real life over Kate's as is normal and as she should.

I think Jamie is too nice to just call it quits and I think she probably does care about the kids, but it's obvious the friendship is kept on a short leash, with plenty of boundaries set by Jamie.

FlimsyFlamsy said...

Kris (#131), oh, Deanna is digging the spotlight for sure. But like TFW, she only wants the good stuff: free trips and camera time and money and perks. I think last night on Twitter was a real eye-opener for her. Welcome to show biz, Deanna.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I totally agree with you. I never liked Deanna and don't think her makeup, either on herself or on Kate is too good. I also don't like her personality although she seems to be chummy with the kids ( unlike Andrea) but then she can't step forward as a 'parent figure' if she's a friend to the kids.

Her style is not great either so I wouldn't take advice from her - she not too attractive or trendy IMO.I haven't seen the episode from last night- come on Daily Motion!- so I can only speculate from what I read, but she is not a marriage/child therapist or legal consultant so she should not voice her opinion on Jon and his actions, especially on national TV.

Yes, Kate keeps her on board because she is a brown- noser.

Sad but true said...

The make-up on the stills I've seen from last night's show is outrageously bad. If Deanna was going for Drag Queen Kate, she succeeded beyond her wildest expectations. Especially when you compare what she looks like now to what she looked like back in the good old days of beating her babies.

redbird said...

What do you think about this? Do you think that Jamie was asked first to come on the show and go down memory lane before Deanna and she refused?

Maybe that is why they showed a close up of the picture of Jamie and Kate to rub it in.

It was so weird when D and K were sitting on the interview couch and she said, Oh, this is the first time ever I have had someone sitting with me doing this? Is that what she said?

Didn't Jamie sit with her before?

Admin, creepy is very mild to Deanna's behavior last night. Someone beat me too it.

Sad SAD SAD that a mother would let her makeup artist take to social media and air all of the goings on with the kids and their father.

Where was Deanna at when she was doing this? In NYC? At TFW's house. Seems like TFW was hitting the sauce, but was Deanna? Where they just piled up in her room having middle school fun time?

redbird said...

Here is a new word for when you wake up the next morning after a bad night on Twitter.

Hangover for Twitter is Twangover!

reader said...

Deanna is immature has little responsibility. Mady is bright. I speculate (thanks for the word Admin) Kate looks to Mady for approval the only day to day companion she can talk to at her level. I never thought Kate very bright. I can imagine Kate, not having family or friends who are peers, spilling her guts to these two on matters better kept private.
Kate lost the best sounding board she ever had.
I can also see these 3 teenage brains watching Miranda Sings videos on YouTube together.
Kate and Deanna never the cool kids still trying be.
I smile thinking of the power Mady has.
And lastly, didn't watch but I gather from reading that last night was about Kate still trying to convince viewers they saw it all wrong. It wasn't about any regret she might have, I don't believe narcissists are capable of regret.
Instead it was, here let me try to convince you how you saw it wrong.
Using YouTube's Miranda Sings as a guide, Kate explains away years oof abuse

What if Hannah had won the Easter egg contest every year? New rules then too?

Janice in Mo said...

All I know is Collin used to be talkative, actively engaged, articulate and bright eyed. Yesterday's look back and the marathon showed a shocking change in his behavior. And then go back to the somewhat defiant exchange over Hannah's hair....I realize mental health issues can rise up anytime, but this boy does seem over medicated. It is almost like he has been told not to talk. The other 2 boys seem to only tolerate him.

Rebird (#138), "twangover" is perfect! If you were on Match Game, Gene Rayburn would say that was the definitive answer!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

BWAHAHAHA! Thanks, Flimsy!!!

I remember on a Match Game show a girl was trying to win a huge amount of money and Gene said, Blank ___. I think it had something to do with Big Ben or London. The girl was young and really sweet and she picked Brett Somers to help her.

Brett wrote down a answer really quick and then Charles Nelson Reilly slipped over his answer to show her and the other guy did too. You could tell that Brett had changed her answer AFTER the girl said her answer. I saw it plain as day. Then she revealed her answer and it was the same as what the girl said. I think she won 20K or a little more. This was 35 to 40 years ago.

I always thought that Brett thought she was so sweet and wanted to help her. And I also thought that she probably wanted to stick it to the producers in some way. Must of been mad at somebody.

I would love to find that clip just to watch it again!

@Tucker's mom Jon's girlfriend has twitter and its set to private like Deena.I've never seen Jon's girlfriend but because she never discussed custody the way Deena did last,i can safely say she is more mature then her.Its also so hypocritical that the Kate fans say they don't care about jon BUT i've notice they follow his dj account and his partners and if his girlfriend's account was public,they would immediately follow her and show her old negative stories about Jon.

Bahahaha, love the passive aggressive - there's so much more to say. As for holding your tongue, you're a day late and a dollar short on that.

What would possess someone to publicly air someone else's custody issues to perfect strangers?

It seems harder and harder to find anyone in Kate's camp who will put the kids' interests above the almighty shrew's.

Disgusting, the lot of them.

Hey, Milo--what about one of your twitter friends tweeting Steve Harvey negative articles about Jon? What about Goody tweeting DWTS about Jon when he said that he'd like to do DWTS?

And to top it off, Deanna tweeting the "haters" and discussing private info that she had no business discussing.

They all act like they're so innocent, but they do exactly the same things they accuse the haters of.

I've said this many times here (and this is true for my own mother) wouldn't life be grand if you could do anything, say anything, behave any way, treat people however you want on any given day and then just be able to pretend it never happened? Be able to justify it. Have a set of rules for yourself and whole library of rules for the rest of the world? Be able to blame others for your actions? Must be nice, really. Must be nice to minimize, distort, delete, twist, laugh off, reinvent, rewrite, etc etc ETC...

Deanna is an interloper who doesn't know her place. She needs to show more maturity and restraint for the sake of the kids she claims to advocate for.

A coffee bar room.

A sick room.

A Amazon room for all the packages she orders from Amazon. She could use the same wallpaper that is on Blanche's bedroom wall.

A Steve room.

She could get TLC to add on all these rooms and she would still complain about being crowded.

The fervor she exhausts about having more and more is insane and certifiable in a mental health court.

FlimsyFlamsy said...

Tucker's Mom (#164), I'm still reeling from what
happened with Deanna last night. She has burrowed her way into that household, and I think her judgment is clouded. TFW let an interesting factoid out last night when she said the episode idea was "our brain child." These two have their heads together now, and who knows what nonsense they'll come up with.

I don't believe for a second Deanna is looking out for the kids. She, like TFW, is looking out only for herself. Her defense of TFW is not altruistic: she's trying to keep the show, and her meal ticket, afloat. When she thanked the "haters" the other day for helping with the ratings, she really showed her hand.

Sorry - my bad. But I do remember that TFW's behavior was SOOOOOO bad that the producers were called out to the camping site. Her ranting, raving and throwing a huge fit under the canopy made her look like a raving lunatic.

How in the name of everything that's holy can TFW say "This was US at OUR Worst" (as reported by Radar). The children were behaving as children do; she was the one behaving like a raging maniac.

Lancaster Online Jan. 27
Do you miss the days when you got to check in with Jon Gosselin weekly on the TLC show "Jon and Kate Plus 8?"

Starting tonight, Lancastrians can reprise their weekly dose of Gosselin at the Chameleon Club. Gosselin will begin a Wednesday night DJ residency with DJ N-Do at 10 p.m. tonight.

Gosselin announced the residency in a short post on his Facebook page. His last appearance at the Chameleon Club was on New Year's Eve Eve, Dec. 30.

Gosselin told Fly Magazine in December that he's interested in performing more in Lancaster since he's frequently in the area. He said his children attend Lancaster Country Day School.

The father of eight appeared on the Steve Harvey Show on Jan. 25 and will be a judge of the chili cook-off at the Lititz Fire and Ice Festival on Feb. 13.

FYI said...

This USweekly recap basically sums up what clips were shown in the episode.

http://www.usmagazine.com/entertainment/news/kate-plus-8-season-finale-recap-kate-gosselin-cringes-watching-old-episodes-w162607

From the article:

Papa-paparazzi

For clip 5, the family visited New York City. Kate was frantically trying to get a photo of her kids at the Statue of Liberty, which she sadly mentioned she never got. She lamented that her family often “becomes the tourist attraction” when they stop to take pics at famous destinations, so they rush through their photo opportunities.

“It is a claustrophobic feeling,” Kate said as she watched footage of her children being photographed by strangers while they tried to pick souvenirs at a gift shop in New York."

She complained about people taking pictures of them, but last night she tweeted:

Kate Gosselin ‏@Kateplusmy8 · 17h17 hours ago
Anyone out there who DOES have a pic from that Statue of Liberty day... I'd really love one:) email it to me?:) @TLC #KatePlus8

So she hated the fact that people were taking pictures of them at the Statue of Liberty, but now she wants those same people to send her what ever pictures they have?

reader said...

Kate has come a long way when it comes to material things. I'm my mind her character has gone from Church going country nurse mom, to bitter divorced poorly educated materialistic thug.

(179) *In my mind.

jamezvader1194 said...

1 thing i've notice is that this episode did kinda backfired cause there were some people on twitter and facebook that called Kate out and disliked how Kate tried to excuse her actions and more people claiming to tune out.So hoping those people are serious

Jeanne said...

Kate has the same excuse for everything that happened. 8 kids is sooo tough, I am sooo exhausted. Motherhood is difficult, I agree. But if you are so exhausted all the time that you can't think straight, you need to see a doctor. You're either sick physically or mentally.

Kate has always had such strange expectations for her children. After 5 days of potty training, no more accidents. A toddler should know not to damage a dresser knob, a child should know not to damage a cheap globe, elementary Mady and Cara should help parent the tups, Colin should take care of all the animals, etc. she has no idea what children are like and her discipline is never softened by love.

I do not get why she would want to do a clip show with things that went wrong. Why not do a clip show of fun things?

These "looking back" shows are always a throw away. No idea why TLC would do one again, if only because it costs almost nothing.
Cheap filler.

MikeB said...

Ratings for last night are out. She got 907,000 viewers and 0.30 share compared to last week’s 1.079 million viewers and 0.34 share. That has to hurt. Another 100,000 viewers bailed out this week.

The Little Couple got 1.442 million and a 0.39 share.

It should be obvious to TLC that the public's interest in Kate is waning fast. The tups' 10th birthday got over 2 million viewers for the two specials. The next round of specials in January last year averaged over 1.5 million. Excluding the underwhelming "Decade of Kate" three-hour review, the Mother's day, 40th birthday, and tups' 11th birthday specials averaged 1.2 million. Now this series only averaged 1 million. The trend is most definitely down.

Hopefully TLC can see the writing on the walls. Kate's anticipated blind date was a complete dud. There is nothing special about the kids anymore. They are for the most part just normal kids doing normal things. Any drama in the family is being manufactured by Kate solely for the purpose of driving the TV show.

The show has run its course. Time for TLC to move on to different ideas rather than continuing to fund this one.

Sue said...

This is what the fans say in defense of Deanne's tirade last night.

@Fly_On_TheWall: @Kaceytron420 @Kateplusmy8 She was defending her friend. If she took it too far, she knows & will delete it.

I guess if you delete it it never existed.

The show has long since run its course. I guess TLC got the programming they needed when the Duggar's show was canceled.
From the sounds of it though, TLC has resumed filming the Duggars.
I can't imagine yet another season of the same old crap, but you never know. I'm sure TLC isn't done with filming the kids. Not by a long shot.

jamezvader1194 said...

This apparently was Kate's idea of fun.

Just look at how she advertised it on Twitter...

"Kate Gosselin ‏@Kateplusmy8 · 4m4 minutes ago
@Lilbee1008 @TLC yes! I can't wait! This was so fun to make and so hilarious..Yrs later.What I would have done differently&what I did WRONG!"

Who looks back at their parenting mistakes with glee and an excitement to share it with the world?

'Fun! Watch while we review how I take my very serious anger issues out on my innocent children.

Next, so hilarious! Let's laugh about how it's really their fault because they exhaust me.'

Just when you think you can't feel any less sorry for a person...

Mel said...

Yeah, that was a real knee slapper alright. Just downright hysterical.

Leslie said...

The twins have never wanted their Mother to even post photos of their last birthdays in the past few years. So I don't know if they want a big birthday bash.

I am thrilled her ratings are going down, down, down. Wow, over 500,000 changed their channels to avoid watching Kate. I think Mady is really turning the fans off. Plus Cara doesn't have much personality for TV. And the tups are ordinary, average kids. And half of them are spoiled and entitled. The tups are no longer the adorable kids who say very funny things. That shipped past years ago. And Kate sitting and narrating the most mundane garbage is boring too. She has this air about her that screams she is full of herself. The whole Kate Plus 8 is getting stale very fast. Even the highly anticipated highlight of the year...The Date...was boring and brought lower ratings. Kate must be getting nervous.

Carole said...

Of course, either Kate is too ignorant to do this, or she enjoys the Jon-bashing because others are doing it for her, thus she gets off by saying, "Who? me? I would never say anything about the kids's dad."

*****

TFW is loving this. It's free PR (on Milo's part); she's got people doing her dirty work for her and she couldn't be happier. The Deannas and Milos who do her bidding are getting some emotional reward when they fight TFW's battles - which is sick IMO.

IDK if they feel important or feel they're helping someone who is weak or whether they just like insinuating themselves into the lives of others and dividing people. Whatever it is w/them, they are in need of a check up with their therapists to figure out what is missing in their lives.

And in Deanna's case, I'd be very concerned about what she might be saying to the children in private. Of course TFW trusts her because she's reaping the rewards of Deanna's unprofessionalism and intrusion into matters that are none of her business, but IMO, Deanna's proven to be completely untrustworthy.

Anyone still doubt that Deanna is the 'source' mentioned in many of the tabloids? I never did and absolutely wouldn't after her outburst on Twitter recently.

How is Milo going to account for the low rating? Her cable was out; she is probably looking into how many others were affected by cable outages across the country. There you have it; all those millions(?) would have been watching if they weren't blacked out.

FlimsyFlamsy said...

Leslie (#193), if the twins don't want a party, all the better for TFW. TFW can suggest a trip instead, with her and Deanna as chaperones.
Oh, um, did we mention M & C can talk about nothing but going to Europe for their 16 birthday? Um, yeah, it's on their bucket list!

Then again, if the twins don't want a party, they're in a good position to leverage a decent bribe in exchange for their embarrassment. They've surely figured out what to use as currency
now, having Mommie Dearest as a teacher.
