Finally in agreement for a change, the estranged duo issued a joint statement Monday informing us that they plan to live their lives as privately as possible for awhile." Now that makes me happy to hear!

Just found this on the homepage for AOL... Jon & Kate Plus Hate Jon Gosselin could get $10 million for a tell-all that reveals family secrets and lashes out at soon-to-be ex Kate. He's already written half of the manuscript, which claims that Kate withheld sex for over a year as "punishment" and he fell out of love because she started acting like she was "too good" for everyone around her, scoops <self modded> Clearly things are about to get ugly.

Guess it is a Star Mag item. Wonder if it is really just a threat being used to make sure Jon gets a large slice of the monetary pie in the divorce? $10 million sounds pretty high, anyway.

I liked in tonight's episode they didn't focus on Kate's "moments" or Jon's "whining"..Was nice for a change.Maybe if they had done that a couple years ago,they wouldn't be divorcing now.

re: Jon getting 10 million for a tell-all-book. Now we know how he is going to afford that Trump apartment. I think this is going to end up to be a very nasty divorce!

I watched most of tonight's episode and glad they did it on the kids because I still can't tell them all apart!! I know they all don't look exactly the same but I would get the names mixed up, etc. How early were the septuplets born?

re: Jon getting 10 million for a tell-all-book. Yay! Jon found a job. Sadly, it seems this is the only kind of 'work' these two know now. Just as Kate didn't really write her book, Jon won't either. How much do the actual writers get paid?

Watching the special now, I don't remember the early years with them that much. I have always said they just look miserable together or that they don't like one another. But, it is nice to be reminded that somewhere there was some love. You really can see the difference in early years to the most recent years. There are so many horrific stories about these two in the media, I don't believe any of them until they say it. Most of the time their own words or actions disappoint me I don't need to hear the media rumors to make it worse. As ridiculous as I find these two many times I find it hard to believe that Jon would do this pre-divorce. Post divorce is anyone's game or guess.

Bee, lol, I was going to pass, but found the story online anyway. I've heard of couples who say that dueling lawyers can make things more complicated.. hard to say.

The special just made me really sad for all of them. I don't care who anyone likes or dislikes between the two (including myself.) It's just so sad to see them when they were so young and so happy and where they are now. My heart breaks for the kids, esp. on the previews to come in Aug.

and you know watching those early years when they were sitting close on the couch - and she would hit him on the head, but it was how her body was into him and how he leaned into her - its almost in hte later years when her behaviour is most criticized - well its almost like taken out of context... or maybe when he stopped "loving" her (hate that phrase) but it was how they had always related... and then of course I could see if they are growing further apart emotionally how she may be somehow more wanting to be like they always were - where he would bring her her morning coffee... again, just a reminder on how sad it is!

I watched most of tonight's episode and glad they did it on the kids because I still can't tell them all apart!! If last nights episode is mostly bout the kids I might watch it. I still haven't watched the motorcycle show, and the J&K+8 show about the motorcycle. I'm sick of Jon & Kate. I just want to see the kids! But I know that's not how it's gonna be for the most part.

You will like it Serate. I am equally sick or agitated with them. But the network tried hard to play nice and only showed cute stuff about them and in general it is all about the kids. Sea, I didn't want to watch last night but wanted to wait until later in the week and I couldn't find it on later at all. Which is shocking for the network. I went ahead and made sure I watched it because of that. I am sure it will repeat later though.

Last night was really about the kids and not the celebrity parents. It was nice. And when it showed the celebrity parents, they were in love. I LOLd the picture of Jon when Kate first met him.

I'm not buying the story of John writing a tell-all book. I really think the media just wants to play this for as long as they can even if they have to start manufacturing stuff. I really do hope for the kid's sake that they all disappear off the radar to heal in private.

Turns out I did record the new show but 65% of it was all garbled ( I get a new cable box tomorrow and hope that will clear up the garble problem) but I had seen the older footage anyway. It did bring back some good memories. I don't buy Jon writing anything, but ghostwritten, maybe, for the right price, but certainly not $10 million. He's not an ex president or anything.

Speaking of body language (like whey J&K used to lean towards one another and seemed to truly care about one another), does it bug anyone but me that Kate props up her big, DIRTY bare feet on the coffee table or stool when she's being interviewed? That bugs the crap outta me!!

Indeed, a capital offense.. why didn't they just crop her feet out? Perhaps they wanted to show her as not totally obsessive? Maybe they were more into their interview, her words, feelings, and not the soles of her feet.

...and remember this is in the confessional and the coffee table is just there for set decor...or to rest her feet on.
