the not-so-happy couple

the not-so-happy couple


Will it be Jon minus nine tonight on TLC? Rumors have been swirling around the couple for quite a while thanks to tabloid chatter surrounding Jon Gosslin’s alleged infidelity with a college co-ed and Kate’s questionable relationship with her bodguard, Steve Neild.

Barely household names when their show premiered five seasons ago, the tempestuous couple have been tabloid fixtures citing scandalous headlines fit for celebrities of a much more “bad-boy” ilk. Fielding allegations from cheating to child abuse, it really comes as no surprise that Jon and Kate are done-zo after 10 years of marriage.

We here at PB&J HQ aren’t exactly TLC’s prime demographic, but even just a tacit knowledge of the couple leads to scathing presumptions of the couple, most notable Kate. She appears to be well, a stone cold bitch, snapping at her brood of eight while Jon stands there aloof and slack-jawed, increasingly disinterested in his live in the TLC spotlight.

According to People Magazine, the couple filed for divorce today in Doylestown, Pennsylvania. Further speculation puts Jon in bachelor-friendly New York City while Kate stays in bucolic Bucks County with the kids who range in age from five to nearly nine years old. Must be nice knowing one of the most traumatic moments in a child’s life will be broadcast for the world to see and live on the internet for well, ever.

    OK, here is my analysis (maybe over-analysis) of the Jon and Kate fiasco. Problem #1: It all started before they even had the sextuplets b/c it has been documented many times in the press that Jon was perfectly content with the twins and didn’t want any more kids, but Kate did. And instead of having just one more, they had half a baseball team. Problem #2: Kate is a huge controlling b**** who had to have everything in the marriage her way. Jon just took it from her like a lowly puppy and is finally fed up. Problem #3: When the show became hugely popular and Kate began writing books and doing speaking engagements, Jon was forced to quit his job and stay home with the kids. Which contributed to his feelings of worthlessness and dead-behind-the-eyes stares we have seen in recent episodes. Come on people, give him a real job! Problem #4: While Jon seems reluctant about all the attention, Kate can’t get enough of it. She genuinely thinks that she is the Angelina Jolie of Pennsylvania. Obviously the couple’s paths have gone in totally opposite directions.

    In sum, Problems 1 + 2 x 3 / 4 = DIVORCE
