  • Jon Gosselin Denies Homeless Rumors, Talks Kate Gosselin

    Jon Gosselin made news recently for showing up at ex-wife Kate Gosselin’s yard sale. He didn’t show up unannounced, as previously reported, however. Instead he came because his kids asked him to. At least that’s what he told Extra’s Mario Lopez during an interview this past week.

    When Lopez asked about his recent eviction from his home and rumors about him being homeless, the former Jon & Kate Plus 8 star had the following to say.

    “The truth is I made some poor financial decisions, but I am living in a home,” Jon Gosselin said.

    And when asked what went wrong between him and Kate Gosselin, he had no problem answering that question quickly and directly, too.

    “The biggest reason, I think we both wanted different things. I wanted to settle down and kind of get off TV for a while… and she wanted to further her career,” he said.

    One answer Jon gave that coincides perfectly with one Kate has given several times in recent months is in regard to the relationship the two presently have with one another.

    “There is no real relationship, like we don’t talk…” And as for any offers to co-parent with Kate, Jon said, “It’s just not working at this point in time.”

    Jon Gosselin managed to get a slight dig in about Kate Gosselin when Mario Lopez asked him if he would be watching the upcoming season of Celebrity Apprentice, on which his ex-wife will appear.

    “Umm, maybe… If she gets fired probably, I’ll watch that episode,” he said.

    Ouch.

    Mario also asked Jon to comment on last January’s awkward Today Show appearance made by Kate Gosselin, along with their twins, Mady and Cara.

    “I just felt really bad for my girls, so I called them afterwards, and I was just like, ‘Don’t worry about it.’”

    Jon Gosselin admitted he was dating someone when the Extra host asked, but his answer wasn’t at all what Mario Lopez was expecting.

    “I’m dating myself right now,” Jon said, adding, “because I don’t even know myself… I’ve always been with a woman… now, I’ve got to figure out who I am. Being a father, devoting my time toward my kids…”

    So what’s your take on Jon Gosselin? Is he the loser Kate Gosselin makes him out to be or just a guy who can’t seem to catch a break?

    It will certainly be interesting to see if he picks up the pieces since being evicted this time and makes a better life for himself.

  • Kate Gosselin: Was Jon Gosselin at Her Yard Sale?

    Kate Gosselin held a yard sale at her family’s church on Saturday and Jon Gosselin was spotted perusing through the items she was selling. TMZ speculates Jon showed up to see if Kate was selling any items that once belonged to him.

    Kate was reportedly selling items like helmets and car seats. Proceeds from the yard sale didn’t go to pay Kate Gosselin’s bills, as some outlets reported. Instead they were donated to the Animal Rescue League.

    The yard sale was in fact a group effort on behalf of congregants of the church that Kate and her kids either attend or have ties to.

    The Daily Mail reports that Kate wasn’t particularly pleased when Jon Gosselin showed up at her yard sale on Saturday. It seems he pawed through Kate’s items and then hung out with his kids for a while. Since Jon was recently evicted from his apartment, he might not have been able to afford the items Kate put out for sale.

    Aside from looking through Kate Gosselin’s yard sale items, Jon’s presence there was likely made even more awkward because Kate’s bodyguard Steve Neild was reportedly present at the church as well. Rumors have run hot and cold throughout the years since Jon and Kate’s split about Neild serving as way more than just a bodyguard to the former Jon and Kate Plus Eight star.

    Hopefully Kate Gosselin got rid of lots of items at her yard sale this weekend, and perhaps even returned some things to Jon that she didn’t sell and that he couldn’t afford to buy back from her. Following that kind of awkward afternoon, do you expect Kate will purge her household this way again–or might she simply haul it all away to Goodwill instead?
