In the heartbreaking season premiere of reality show Jon & Kate Plus Eight, which drew a record-breaking audience of 9.8 million viewers, the couple admits they don’t entirely know where to go from here.
In the extended premiere, Jon and Kate, who have been married nearly ten years, could barely stay in the same camera-frame and rarely spoke to each other. Kate Gosselin admitted, “I am thinking this possibly could be our last family picture together,” at the sextuplets’ fifth birthday party, which she planned while Jon Gosselin was away.
At the end of the show the whole family gets together for a cookout while producers grill Jon and Kate, who for the first time in the history of the show were filmed in separate interview sessions. “It kills me,” Kate said of the rumors (and truth?) of Jon’s infidelity… and perhaps, allegedly, her own. “I have a lot of anger.” As for Jon, he said, “I’d like to apologize to my family for my actions. Everybody knows what I’m talking about.”
“As many couples do, we are navigating a very difficult time,” the couple said in a statement. “Our current situation brings us together around the children and some times sets us apart. We keep our faith that we will make the right decisions for our family.”
“We will always love our kids,” Jon said on the show, after apologizing to his family. “We will come together for our kids.
