Most likely from all the drinking he has been doing. I hope his hair plugs fall out,His belly hangs to his knees and he dumps a cup of that overpriced hot coffee in his lap..Not that I am taking sides or anything..

In my eyes, Jon will always look bad now. I use to think he was the good guy but no more.

Man, this guy makes me want to puke now! There is no doubt that his older twins will hear about these pictures with different girls. I just feel so bad for the kids and now maybe just maybe a bit for kate :0

I think when it's not Jon's time with the kids he should just stay at a cheap Holiday Inn and wait till it's his turn with the kids. He should not have a life of his own and the public should be the ones that tell him where, when and with whom he can spend his time with.

I am totally waiting to see how well he does his part with the kids. They are - IMO - the ONLY people to whom he owes anything at this point in time.

Tnt, I'm curious about Jon's turn with the kids and wonder if he'll be the same with them as before they separated. I wonder what Kate will do with her free time if Jon ever gets his month with them. I don't begrudge Jon making a life of his own when he's not with the kids. I'd like him to have better taste in the women he dates but since he picked Kate, all those years ago, I don't think his taste in women was ever that great. When is he actually going to spend time with the KIDS! I bet they miss him so much. Kate seems to be the one with them since the split.

Jon can have a life of his own but let's face it, anyone on this board, in his position, would live as close to those kids as possible. What if one of them really needs to see Daddy when it's Mommy's turn in the house? What if one or more of them wants to get away from the crowd and stay with Daddy for a few days? He is now living too far away from them to be a constant presence in their lives.

I think where Jon has chosen to live speaks volumes about how he wants to live his life.

I'm not divorced but from I see of my friends who are divorced it's not usual that a kid can say to the primary caretaker, I want to get away from here and see daddy. It's usually you see daddy on such and such a day, or call him. I don't see Kate as one who would give up her time with the kids just because one of them want daddy. Same would hold true for when Jon is the primary caretaker. There are divorced parents that move clear across the country from their kids. NY and PA is close considering it's easily drivable. Harping on Jon's new apartment isn't something that would make or break his parenting when it's his turn. And we don't even know where Kates place will be? I'm still betting that when the divorce is all said and done with- they will not be doing the sharing of custody one parent at a time in the house with the kids, it'll end up being a more traditional split of weekends, holiday's and summer vacations with dad. I doubt Kate wants Jon hanging around when it's her time with the kids. It's normal for someone after splitting with their spouse to move on and moving on doesn't mean they are neglecting their kids. Hanging around the house might even give the kids hope that mommy and daddy will get back together.

This isn't typical since they are back to filming the show. Jon, Kate and the kids filmed yesterday or the day before. He can make any choices he wants to make, but some of the choices he has made do not speak to a dad who wants to spend the most time with his children.. motorcycle with one seat, small sports car, small apartment in another state (nearby or not, he's not likely to be around for those typical emergencies that any kid has, and with 8 kids those will be more frequent). But certainly he's free to make questionable choices.. As for his claims today that he was heartbroken and didn't have any relationship with Hailey until Kate asked him to move out.. supposedly he was crushed and went to spend time with Hailey's family.. well that totally ignores his teacher hookup. http://www.popeater.com/television/article/jon-and-hailey-didnt-date-until-after/578377 According to a source, the relationship between Jon Gosselin and Hailey Glassman didn't begin until Kate Gosselin had filed divorce papers. The insider says that Jon stayed at Hailey's father's house after Kate kicked him out over the May 4 weekend, PEOPLE reports. "Jon was heartbroken, totally heartbroken. Kate told him to take a hike." But it wasn't until after June 20, when papers were filed, that a romance between Gosselin and Glassman began. The source also claims that while the Gosselins officially split this summer, their marriage had been over since last year. "[Kate] said she wanted her life. She said she was done. It came out of the blue." === Snort.. "a source" .. that could be anyone..

Most kids of divorce always hope mom and dad will get back together. I just wonder if Jon has enough money to be spending so much on just himself. Only he benefits with a small $1 million apartment in NYC. Only he benefits with trips to Europe with his girlfriend. Only he benefits with his tiny car, that is also a very expensive car. The kids do not benefit from any of that. And I wonder if that is really his money to spend or if it really is the kids money that he is spending. Also, and more important than money, being in the media so much is not good for his kids for now or for the future (as in, when the kids do find out about his behavior). He is not being a good parent in that he is not being a good role model for his kids. He is newly separated and not divorced. A year ago or so, he was renewing his vows. No matter how much he wants to move on with his life, no matter how much he may think he should be able to do so w/o it mattering (re: media attention), he is not some unknown and it is probably now and will affect his kids in a very negative way, more negative than an unknown person going through separation and divorce. Even if he was unknown and behaving the same way, I still find that behavior deplorable. But it is worse in this case for the kids because of the huge amount of media attention and that is or will be detrimental to the kids. I think if Kate was doing the same thing as Jon, we would hear about it.

Sea, just saw your post. You posted while I was typing. I agree with your "snort" Jon never acted heartbroken on camera. Whether or not he got together with Hailey in the last few wks. after papers were filed, it is still very inappropriate in this situation because there are kids involved.

Excuse me but if my husband cheated on me I would also tell him to take a hike. And take that motorcycle and sports car with him to his girlfriend's house. Then, buying a place in NYC sure tells me what/who his priorities are. Kate is not going anywhere. She's staying with her kids in their house and the only place she's going is on speaking engagements. She doesn't need an apartment.

O.k., so what if he didn't date Haily Glassman until after June 20th? He then took her to St. Tropez on July 12th... Pretty fast mover he is, dating someone for 22 days and taking her on a sweet vacation. He's living the high life alright...I don't think he was upset by the divorce for even a single minute.

Wait, I thought it was Jon who would not speak to Kate about it. Totally shut her out, he wanted out and IMO made Kate's life equally miserable until she told him to pound sand. Then she wants to talk about it, and he's not budging. Typical passive aggressiveness. He wanted out, but didn't want to be the bad guy. Too late for that I guess.

Don't forget that long before the doctor's daughter there was the teacher that Jon CHEATED with. Also don't forget the engagement ring he gave the new girl. He's a pretty fast mover or they've been together longer than we know about. Oh yeah, he's crying in his beer over his marriage. <snort>

This whole ewww Jon dates a lot and is starting to make a life for himself at the expense of the kids makes me giggle a bit. I picture people wanting him to hide out 2 mins from the kids house so JUST in Case Kate or the KIDS need him. The kids will always need him, he's there dad! But mom and dad don't dig each other anymore and just like most other couples that choose to end their marriage, life will never be the same which means when it's not Jon's turn in the kids house he's off making a life of his own....it's healthy for him. Kate will need to do the same but I'm afraid she's a marked woman and most men will flee from her, unless of course she really has been playing hide the sausage with the hunky body guard. She's probably just counting the days till Jon relives her of parental duties and takes his turn in the house with the kids.

I think you're really misunderstanding (at least my) reasons why people are speaking the way they are about Jon. It has nothing to do with him making a new life for himself, it has to do with him being caught lying about relationships before he was divorced, and living a bachelor's lifestyle (a wealthy one at that) before the ink was even dry. Along with that, his disdain for doing the show, umm...the exact show that made him the money he is now freely spending on himself...is such a contradiction. It's all about JON, his need to be "just him" and his need for very expensive toys, etc. And I highly doubt Kate is chomping at the bit to be away from her parental duties. I don't know where that comment comes from, because I've neither read nor seen anything that would support that statement.

I agree, Lilfair. I think the whole problem with how Jon is being perceived is that most people just don't realize how long it's really been since they called it quits. It was in 2008. It feels recent only because they waited so long to actually make the formal announcement. What we saw on tv for many months was a charade. I don't see Jon doing anything wrong by moving on at this point.

Lil and Naja, ITA agree with both of you, but we are "minority opinions" - as the Supreme Court would put it - in this thread!

I think Naja makes a good point that they have been apart for longer than the show made it appear.
