Jon Gosselin: I Want to Bring Collin Home in Time for Christmas!

Over the weekend, Collin Gosselin resurfaced in photos of him visiting his father, Jon Gosselin.

This was heartwarming for countless fans, especially since they know that Jon has filed for custody of Collin.

Now, a family friend has opened up — and reveals that Collin could be home with Jon and Hannah surprisingly soon.

Eric Rodriguez is the guy who’s been cutting Jon Gosselin’s hair for about 20 years now.

Just this week, Jon shared a photo of Eric with Collin, and referred to Eric as “family.”

Well Eric spoke to RadarOnline to reveal that Jon’s quest to bring his son home has a goal: before Christmas.

“Jon is hoping for December 18,” Eric reveals.

Folks, that’s only a little over a month away.

Speaking of Collin, Eric says: “Lets hope he gets out soon.”

We all share the sentiment of hoping that Collin is soon free.

Fans all want him to be free of the institution that holds him and free of Kate, who put him there and made his childhood a living hell.

But Eric has actually seen and spoken to Collin recently, as the photo Jon shared makes abundandly clear.

Eric says that Collin seemed “so happy” during his visit.

“Oh my god. His smile,” Eric gushes to RadarOnline. “Honestly, his smile was unbelievable”

Eric even shares that Collin seems very healthy.

“He lost a lot of weight from the last picture I saw of him that Jon showed me,” Eric divulges.

it is important to remember that teenagers tend to have weights and body proportions that fluctuate wildly as they grow.

“He looks really, really good,” Eric concludes.

That is so heartwarming to hear.

Collin has been out of sight — but not out of mind — for the better part of two years.

As we reported, on October 24, Jon Gosselin filed for custody of Collin.

In the court documents filed in Pennsylvania court, Jon argues that it’s in Collin’s best interests to live with him.

Anyone familiar with Kate’s troubled and at times allegedly violent interactions with Collin will find that difficult to dispute.

Hannah is already with her father, and most of her siblings have gotten to spend time with him here and there.

Now, no one is saying that Jon should be winning any Father of the Year Awards.

but Kate will be hard pressed to prove to the court that he should return to the home from which she banished him.

Collin was sent away in the first place for vague “special needs.”

Jon has explained in the past that Collin is smart and questions Kate, which infuriates her.

Kate has been widely perceived as being deeply controlling, which brought her into conflict with her son who wanted to be his own person.

Some fans believe that his alleged “anger issues” are simply the result of growing up under the suffocating constraints of Kate’s household.

Others believe that perhaps he inherited his mother’s rage, and that working on it in an institution as he has is the best way to keep him from turning into another Kate.

Either way, it sounds like him leaving Kate’s household, as hard as it must have been, was for the best.

But now, countless fans are keeping their fingers crossed and hoping that Collin can come and live with Jon.

It’s not super clear how many of his children Jon can afford to support on a DJ’s salary.

But plenty of parents have made do with less in order to give their children a safe, loving home.

Jon and Kate have been waging a custody battle off and on for nearly a decade, now, since their messy split in 2009.

Maybe Collin can finally join Hannah and get to start really experiencing his teenage years.

Leaving his current institution just to return to Kate’s house sounds like an “out of the frying pan, into the fire” situation.

Hannah Gosselin Reunites with Annoying Mother, Siblings

Hannah Gosselin is back home.

At least we think she’s back home.

It’s sort of unclear just where the 14-year old considers to be home these days.

Over the past several weeks, Hannah has found herself once again caught in the middle of a never-ending feud between her loser father and irritating mother.

She has posed on countless occasions with Jon Gosselin, making it clear that she’s over the beef that existed for so many years between dad and daughter.

Which is fantastic, don’t get us wrong.

It’s healthy for Hannah to have a healthy relationship with both her parents.

Is it also healthy for her to team up with Jon and hurl shade at Kate? Probably not.

But it now looks as if Kate either had no idea this happened or had swept it very far under the rug.

We can say this because Mady Gosselin shared a pair of photos on her Instagram page over the weekend.

In the first one above, Alexis, Hannah, Leah, Aaden, Joel, Mady and Cara are all in the same place; all celebrating Halloween by smiling with some pumpkins in hand.

It’s not evident exactly where this snapshot was taken, but mother Kate wasn’t too far away.

“Aww Mad! Just saw this! What a fun time we had together today! I love you all so so much,” she wrote as a reply on her daughter’s Instagram account.

Kate and Jon have been at odds ever since their divorce in 2009.

Heck, anyone who watched these two anchor their TLC reality series way back in the day can verify that they’ve been at odds ever since they got married, really.

However, the latest ongoing source of contention has been the whereabouts and the custody of Hannah.

As documented a few weeks ago, Kate has filed numerous legal documents in order to basically prevent Hannah from living with Jon.

From what we can gather, Kate still has primary custody of all eight kids, but Jon has been battling to change this and Hannah is the main child thus far who has happily settled into her dad’s home on many occasions.

“She permanently lives with me,” Jon even said in a social media video this past August, responding to a follower’s question about why Hannah had been featured in so many recent photos with him.

Kate, naturally, has said this isn’t true.

She has called Jon a liar.

It has once again gotten very ugly between the former spouses.

We aren’t about to get involved here because we’re sort of scared of Kate.

And because we don’t know the exact arrangement that has been agreed upon between the parties and the court system.

But we are happy to see Hannah spending time with her brothers and sisters at least.

These kids are now all teenagers and this when permanent impressions really could be left on them by whatever cruel nonsense continues to exist between their mother and father.

We’d love to say we’re confident Kate and Jon will keep this in mind and find a way to be at least a little bit nice to each other.

But let’s be honest.

If that was remotely possible, it would have been realized and attempted many yeasr ago.

Jon and Kate Gosselin: The Twins Are Now 18!

Where does the time go, right, readers?

It seems like only yesterday that Jon and Kate Gosselin were happily married… starring on a hit reality show… and raising eight kids, the oldest of which were precocious twins Cara and Maddy.

But that was then.

Now?

Jon and Kate Gosselin are unmarried and constantly at odds… neither is (currently) starring on a reality show… and Cara and Maddy are 18 years old!!!!

So, we repeat: Where does all that time go?!?

On Monday, October 8, the twins turned this important age, meaning they can now buy tobacco legally and can also vote in the upcoming midterm elections.

In celebration of the occasion, Kate shared a photo of her kids’ cake on Instagram, along with a heartfelt caption.

Here is the cake:

And here is the caption:

HAPPY 18th Birthday, Cara and Madelyn! T

here are no words to describe how proud I am of you both. Despite the many turbulent times you’ve had to deal with so far in life, you have emerged as wise, level headed, reasonable, forgiving, loving, kind and absolutely brilliant ADULTS!

I can say that I’ve poured endless love into you and fought tooth and nail for the best for you, but I cannot possibly take credit for the truly wonderful humans (adult humans!) you have become!

You will thrive in life, I am certain, and I will still be with you every step of the way going forward, continuing to guide you and love you.

I love you both so very very much and I wish peace, happiness and the great successes I know are coming your way!

Elsewhere, Jon Gosselin, who seems to actually want back in the lives of his children, also shared the above message on his social media page.

The controversial father has been spending a ton of time with daughter Hannah of late, with some reports even claiming that he’s now fighting for custody of the teenager.

The two have been posing on Instagram and appear to have put all issues from the past far behind them.

Which is great. 

Even the harshest Jon Gosselin critic should admit that it’s better for him to be in the lives of his kids than not be in their lives.

That said, Jon may still have a long way to go until he’s close to either of the new 18-year olds.

Back in April, Mady told People Magazine that she rarely sees her dad — and told the publication very simply that only Jon is to blame for this estrangement.

“He makes it seem like we’re being kept from him, which is insane,” Mady said at the time, adding:

“He should maybe spend some time thinking about why we don’t want to see him, and maybe realize that if he ever does want a relationship with us, talking about us on TV is not the way to make that happen.

“He doesn’t even know us.”

Jon Gosselin and Hannah Bond While Cheering Kate"s Least Favorite Team!

While former reality star Jon Gosselin celebrates Hannah’s freedom from Kate, they’re doing plenty of father-daughter activities to make up for lost time.

In their latest photo, Jon and his 14-year-old daughter are cheering on their favorite football team.

And there’s something about this photo that might just make Kate pop a gasket.

A few days ago, Jon Gosselin happily posted a banner for the Philadelphia Eagles on his Instagram, captioning the photo: “Let’s go Eagles!”

If you’re not familiar with them, the Eagles are a football team — they actually won the Super Bowl this year.

Jon has since shared another photo, this time of him with his 14-year-old daughter, Hannah.

Both sporting Eagles shirts, they spent some father-daughter time at the P.J. Whelihan’s Pub and Restaurant.

Here is the sweet photo that he shared with fans and followers:

“We are Back!!!” Jon captioned the pic. “GO BIRDS!!!!!”

To make sure that there was no confusion over where his sports bread is buttered, Jon included the hashtag: “#philadelphiaeagles”

(Hey, not everyone has an easy time reading print on shirts)

Hannah Gosselin has deleted her Instagram while her parents wage a somewhat quiet war in the courts.

Hannah is at the center of things, and that court battle may be over the fact that Kate Gosselin can’t stand to see Hannah go free.

Unlike Kate, a lot of Jon’s fans and followers were thrilled to see the two get to spend some father-daughter time.

Fans flooded the comments under Jon’s photo.

“So happy for the 2 of you,” one writes. “I’ve been with you guys since the beginning and I’m glad to see you so happy.”

“Thank goodness she lives with you!” exclaims another. “Anybody would look less stressed after leaving a house where you’re constantly under ones thumb and berated. You both look great!”

“Father daughter moment!” cheers another. “I hope you get to make many memories with your daughter! All your kids look a lot like you.”

Another writes what many fans hope and pray to see: “I hope you get custody of Collin too.”

Not everyone made their comments all about Kate and how great it is that Hannah is breathing free hair for the first time in her life.

“You both look so happy!!” writes one cheery fan. “Hope she is enjoying school.”

Last month, Jon shared a photo of Hannah headed off to school.

“Great picture of you and Hannah,” comments a sports enthusiast. “No hard feelings, but I’m a Green Bay Packer. However, I do have respect for your team nevertheless.”

“She has gotten so big,” writes another. “They all have. My niece loved your show when she was little.”

Just a quick tip — when a girl is 14, it’s time to stop saying she has gotten so big. Use words like tall and mature.

Kate definitely has some sports opinions, but she’s no fan of the Eagles — even though they’re the Gosselin family’s hometown team.

During the 2018 Superbowl, Kate focused on the best part of sports season (the food) instead of on the Eagles or the Patriots.

“I am celebrating our food spread this year. Isn’t it festive?” Kate wrote on Instagram.

Kate explained: “I don’t like either team, so we are watching and eating and celebrating but I couldn’t care less who wins. #SuperBowl2018 #Whatever# BetterLuckNextYear.”

It is possible that Hannah supporting her father’s preferred team is intended as a subtle rub against Kate’s disdain for them.

Or maybe she and her father just have similar taste in sports teams.

Kate Gosselin HATES Hannah Living With Jon!

We have learned a lot about Jon and Kate Gosselin’s twisted battle for Hannah, who is allegedly currently living with her father and, for the first time in her life, free from Kate’s clutches.

Unfortunately, a lot about Hannah’s current situation remains unclear, except for the fact that Kate and Jon are butting heads in court.

Now, a source close to the Gosselin sheds a little more clarity on the whole situation.

According to what a source tells Life & Style, Kate is agonizing over this very complicated situation with Hannah and Jon.

“Kate is trying to be supportive of the situation,” the insider claims.

Is she, though? She’s been fighting a vaguely defined court battle with Jon recently.

“But the truth is,” the source reveals. “She hates that Hannah chose Jon over her.”

Now that is something that people have an easy time believing.

The insider shares that Kate is worried about a domino effect taking place among her children.

“The problem,” the insider explains. “Is that the kids are getting older and they’re starting to ask questions.”

We all reach a point at which we realize that our parents are just people, and that we shouldn’t take their word at face value.

“Some are still Team Mom,” the source continues. “But Team Dad is growing.”

The insider dishes that: “It’s a very divided household.”

In our earlier report, we mentioned how Jon and Kate were simply unable to get along, and that they’re still waging war in court.

“It’s never going to end,” the insider lamented.

Perhaps it will by the time that all of their children are adults.

“Even now, after all these years,” the source says. “Jon’s still trying to show the world that Kate’s the furthest thing from a great mom.”

We think that most of the world has a pretty good idea of exactly the sort of mother that Kate is — even if Kate doesn’t realize it herself.

As we mentioned, it is normal for people to realize that their parents can make mistakes and are just older human beings.

In the case of Jon and Kate’s eight children, however, they’re not an ordinary family.

Their parents decided to raise them on reality television.

Kate in particular is widely seen to be a nightmarish and aggressive human being and has been accused of abuse.

Jon looks better, in contrast, because he’s just seen as a loser.

Now that their children are getting older, they’re going to be able to look at their lives and their childhoods and realize how abnormal things really are in their lives with Kate.

That doesn’t mean that they’ll all go running to Jon. For one thing, he clearly cannot afford to take care of them all.

For another, however, some kids will cling to the life that they’ve known. Kind of like how some kids escape from cults when they’re older, but others refuse to stray.

Hannah — and, arguably, Collin — is stepping away from the life she’s known and becoming her own person. Which means that Kate is losing her iron grip on her kids.

That means an unhappy Kate, who is absolutely going to take it out on Jon in court in an effort to win back control. So, yeah, they might keep fighitng for years.

Hannah Gosselin Deletes Instagram; What Might It Mean?

We have a new twist in the decade-long, never-ending, nausea-inducing saga of Jon and Kate Gosselin.

What does this latest scoop mean for their future relationship and, more importantly, for their future relationship with 14-year old daughter Hannah?

It’s unclear at this time.

But the development itself is quite clear:

Hannah has deleted her Instagram page.

Typically an active user of social media, the teenager has chosen to shut down her account for at least the time being, prompting speculation over what this could mean and why she would have done so.

What 14-year old girl, some might reasonably ask, does not want to be a part of the Instagram world these days?

The kind of 14-year old girl, we must sadly report, who is stuck in an endless tug of war between her awful parents.

This very much appears to be what’s taking place between Hannah, Jon and Kate, the latter two of whom rose to fame as the anchors of Jon and Kate Plus 8 on TLC and who divorced back in 2009.

It looked for years as if Jon was off doing his own thing (yes, he really did work as a DJ at one point), basically ignoring his kids and leaving Kate to try and make money off raise them on her own.

Earlier this summer, however, Jon surprised fans by sharing a picture with Hannah on Father’s Day…

… and then Hannah surprised everyone even more when she said that Jon was the “best dad anyone could ask for.”

Since that time, Jon has shared other pictures of himself with his daughter; on July Fourth, for instance, and also on her first day as an eighth grader.

He’s also stated, very simply, that Hannah lives with him “permanently,” a declaration that came as a total stunner to those who have been closely following the lives of the Gosselins over the years.

(Editor’s Note: If you are one of these people, it may be time to re-evaluate your life choices.)

Kate Gosselin, however, has labeled Jon a liar and insisted that she still has primary custody of all her kids.

Based on recent court filings, however, it’s evident that there’s been some sort of battle over Hannah for months now.

Where does Hannah’s Instagram deletion fit into this gigantic and unfortunate mess? We have no idea.

It may mean nothing at all.

It may mean that Kate is still involved in her child’s life and ordered Hannah to take down her account, considering she’s anti-social media and that she blasted a fan who posed as daughter Alexis on Instagram this summer.

Meanwhile, Hannah isn’t the only Gosselin child about which folks have concerns.

Her brother, Collin, remains in a treatment facility for what sources have said is some kind of anger or behavioral problem.

He’s been there for at least two years and is never pictured with his siblings anymore.

It’s a very sad situation, one that leaves us simply praying that Jon and Kate have the best interests of their son in mind.

Based on their many heinous actions over the years, however, we tragically cannot be confident this is the case.

Kate Gosselin vs. Jon Gosselin: Inside Their Battle Over Hannah

DING! DING! DING!

It is – tragically, painfully, astoundingly – back on again between Kate Gosselin and Jon Gosselin.

Nearly 10 years after the couple filed for divorce, tension between the reality stars remains as strong and as uncomfortable as ever… with their teenage daughter now caught in between.

Over the past few weeks, Jon Gosselin has been sharing numerous photos of himself and 14-year old Hannah.

She even said her formerly estranged parent was “the best dad anyone could ask for,” which is quite the change of tune for any of Jon’s kids to sing.

It’s great that Hannah is getting along well with her pops, of course. Even Kate might say that in a moment of truth; it’s not like she wants her children to be ignored by their father.

But then Jon took things to an unexpected different level when he alleged that Hannah is living with him “permanently.”

Is this really the case?!?

Jon did, after all, send Hannah off to her first day of eighth grade this week.

She is clearly sleeping at her dad’s house quite often.

Nevertheless, sources close to Kate have argued, Jon is a big huge liar and she maintains primary custody of all eight children the ex-couple share.

It’s yet another weird situation between the exes, along with a confusing one and a cantankerous one.

According to a new Radar Online report, meanwhile, it’s also a long-gestating issue.

The website has obtained Pennsylvania court records that detail the former couple’s years-long secret custody battle that has only been ratched up in recent months.

For example:

According to these papers, a judge filed a custody order on April 5, 2018 that apparently made Kate very mad. She tried to fight this ruling for months.

On May 4, Gosselin filed a motion for reconsideration, which means she asked the judge to change his previous decision from about a month earlier.

On May 8, Kate filed an appeal to the county’s superior court.

On June 14, the appeal was shut down.

Kate “did not present legal argument to justify this Court’s jurisdiction,” the judge ruled at this time, adding that she filed the appeal more than 30 days after the court’s order and adding:

“This Court has no jurisdiction to excuse the failure to file a timely notice of appeal.”

Also in June, Gosselin filed an emergency petition for special relief, which fast-tracks an urgent case. This was rejected by the court.

Many specifics in regard to threse legal maneuvers are not known at this time, but it’s pretty clear there has been ongoing legal wrangling between Jon and Kate over Hannah.

Jon does appear to have made some progress in his custody battle, but Kate also remains the primary caregiver, as far as we can tell.

Things also remain as ugly as ever between the former co-stars, but we guess they’ve come a long way in a year.

Remember: At this time in 2017, Jon and Kate were LITERALLY fighting over Hannah.

Jon Gosselin: Look, Kate! I"m Sending Hannah to School!

Jon Gosselin appears to be using his daughter as a way to throw shade at his ex-wife.

Shocking, we know.

We’ll give you a minute to pick your jaw up off the floor…

Just a few days after Kate Gosselin shared a photo of her kids’ first day back at school, Jon Gosselin has gone ahead and posted personal highlight from daughter Hannah’s debut as an eighth grader.

“Congrats Hannah on your first day of school, proud of you. I admire your bravery starting fresh!!!” Jon wrote as a caption to the image below, adding;

“I Love you very much and we have worked really hard to get here. Dedication has really paid off.”

It does seem as though Jon and Hannah have worked really hard to mend what was once a contentious relationship.

For about a month now, Jon has shared images of himself and this daughter, actually spending quality time as a small family unit.

Concluded Jon in the message he attached to this snapshot:

“I’m so happy you integrated yourself into the community, you made friends all summer and now you will grow and graduate with them. I’m honored to be your father!!!

“Love you, Dad #newbeginnings.”

Back on Father’s Day, Hannah wrote on Instagram that she loved Jon and that he was “the best dad anyone could ask for.”

This came as quite a shock to anyone who has followed his adventures after he and Kate split up and would have come to the exact opposite conclusion as a result.

However, Jon and Hannah celebrated July Fourth together this year and sources have even said that Jon now has primary custody of the teenager.

Of course, Kate herself does NOT say this.

In the latest fight between the cantakerous and irritating exes, Kate has objected to Jon’s claim that Hannah “permanently” resides with him.

“[Kate] maintains full custody of all eight of her kids,” a source familiar with the situation told People Magazine a couple weeks ago.

This seems like a really simple issue to resolve. We’re not really sure how there can be a debate over which parent Hannah is residing with.

But we’re not sure how Jon and Kate managed to live in the same house for years without killing each other, either.

In the end, as long as the children are safe, happy and healthy… hey, whatever.

We figure Jon shared this image of Hannah going off to school as a pretty clear jab toward Kate, to make it appear to the public as if he’s the one in charge of her life.

As for which side we’re taking in this never-ending feud?

HA!

We know far better than to get involved here.

Kate Gosselin: Jon"s a Liar! ALL the Kids Live With Me!

She may not be anyone’s idea of the perfect mother, but for the time being at least, Kate Gosselin still has custody of all her children.

Earlier this week, Kate’s idiot ex-husband, Jon Gosselin, made the claim that daughter Hannah lives with him. Turns out, he was lying.

“She permanently lives with me,” Gosselin said in a video originally obtained by Radar Online.

You might think that even Jon Gosselin wouldn’t be dumb enough to make such an easily disprovable claim if it were false, but sadly, you would be mistaken.

It seems the reality star-turned-DJ was in fact completely full of it when he made the claim that Hannah is “free” from Kate and had made the decision to live with her father.

“[Kate] maintains full custody of all eight of her kids,” a source familiar with the situation tells People magazine.

Rumors that Hannah was living with Jon began on Father’s Day, when he posted a photo of the 14-year-old on vacation with him and his girlfriend.

She was later seen in an Instagram video featuring one of Jon’s DJ sets.

(Yes, poor Hannah is cursed with the most cringe-inducing dad on the planet.)

It’s anyone’s guess as to why Jon decided to make the claim that Hannah now lives with him full-time.

Maybe she briefly did and decided to return to her mother after remembering that her dad is a 41-year-old club DJ.

Or maybe Jon made up some total BS about one of his kids and decided to share it with the world.

Sadly, it wouldn’t be the first time.

Back in 2016, twins Mady and Cara spoke out against the sob story their father had been spinning for the press:

“He makes it seem like we’re being kept from him, which is insane,” Mady told People at the time.

“He should maybe spend some time thinking about why we don’t want to see him, and maybe realize that if he ever does want a relationship with us, talking about us on TV is not the way to make that happen.”

There have been many, many low points in the life of Jon Gosselin.

But being blasted by your own kids — who actually prefer to live with Kate Gosselin — has gotta be a new rock bottom.

Jon Gosselin: Hannah Lives with Me, Permanently! She"s Free!

On July 4, Jon Gosselin and his daughter Hannah celebrated Independence Day. It"s a wonderful day to be free of tyrants — from King George III to Kate.

For months, 14-year-old Hannah has been spending time with her father — and his girlfriend.

And now, in the video that you"ll see below, Jon has confirmed that she is living with him on a "permanent" basis.

In the sweet home video shared over Instagram live, Jon Gosselin is DJing.

Because it is Instagram live, Jon sees a stream of questions from fans and followers.

In response to one question, he tells them that Hannah — who also appears in parts of the video, singing along with him — is making him a hotdog.

In response to another question, he shares some very, very good news.

"She permanently lives with me," Jon makes clear.

It"s not a perfect video.

The music that he"s playing is "Questions" byChris Brown. But Jon is a DJ — sometimes, he has to play music by terrible people. It"s literally his job.

If you get a little grossed out and feel like you need to wash your hands if you see somebody eat a hotdog with their bare hands, this is not the video for you.

Jon also responds to Hannah bringing him a plate of hotdogs by saying: "Do you all see that? That’s a daughter for you."

Some found that to be a cringeworthy line that reinforces troubling gender roles, but we don"t think that he meant it that way.

He was just saying that his child is great. Which is true!

The news that Hannah is living with him on a permanent basis is confirmation of what fans have suspected all summer.

Back in May, Jon Gosselin shared a rare photo of Collin, which sparked a slew of questions — especially since he was with Hannah at the time.

In fact, Jon and Hannah had been all over each other"s Instagram pages, from getting ice cream to getting coffee to going on a road trip (to see Collin).

Jon was evasive at the time, telling fans and followers that they probably know his situation or could speak to someone familiar with it to find out.

Everyone was sure that he meant that he had custody of Hannah. But this is the first time that they"ve gotten real confirmation.

At this rate, Kate Gosselin really need to rename her show.

Kate Plus 6 doesn"t really have the same ring to it as Kate Plus 8, but it"s much more accurate since she banished Collin to some mysterious institution and since Hannah has now escaped her clutches.

Jon may not be perfect — in fact, he"s far from it — but we"re sure that he rescue all of his children from their evil mom if he could.

Unfortunately, he doesn"t have the financial resources to do so.

And from the looks of the lawsuit that Kate slapped on him earlier this year, she aims to keep it that way.

Each family is different. There are plenty of families, like with the Gosselins, where the mother is a toxic person.

There are others — many of which we"ve covered — where that role falls to the father.

There are also a lot of divorces in which both parents are decent people who just don"t love each other anymore and know that a divorce is what"s best for everyone involved. It happens a lot. There aren"t always good guys and bad guys.

In this story, there are. Jon may not be the best guy, but he"s trying his best. And Kate … is doing her worst.

Good for Hannah for breaking free and living a new life. We can only imagine how hard it was to leave her siblings behind.
