You are not going to believe this, THGers, but Jon Gosselin still has a few bones to pick with his former co-star and wife, Kate Gosselin.
Jon recently claimed his ex-spouse has been keeping his kids from him and that he “gets what he gets” in terms of time with the brood.
In other words, whatever and whenever Kate decides. No more.
Now, in a new interview, the man who hasn’t seen all eight kids together in years tells us just how heartbreaking the ordeal has been.
Yes, years. As in plural. He’s not happy about it, to say the least.
“The fact that I haven’t had all of my kids together in three years really upsets me,” he admitted to Radar. “Kids need their fathers.”
“I let them know how much I love them and am there for them.”
Just not physically. Not that his former bosses didn’t try to prevent this divorce from even happening for the sake of ratings, he says.
Jon says TLC tried to stop his divorce marriage even after he and Kate had already decided to part ways – and not amicably at that.
“It felt forced, rather than organically coming back together as a unit,” Jon says, though he does not hold them responsible for his life.
“I don’t blame the network for what has transpired in the past,” he said. “Forgiveness is what I choose to focus on rather than the negative.”
Looking back, he admits he does sort of regret parting ways from Jon & Kate Plus 8 at times, ’cause damn, those were the good ol’ days.
“The show provided a means of living in a very rewarding way,” the fallen star confessed. “I got to see my kids all the time while working.”
Indeed. But sadly (and not surprisingly), he’s far from alone in terms of being a relationship that began crumbling with cameras rolling …
