Jon and Kate finale question?

Question

So, I've been catching up on some of the shows I missed this season, and I see the preview of the finale where it is implies that Jon and Kate may be having some marital problems. While I don't get caught up in all the rumors of them and infidelity or them getting a divorce, do you still feel a little sorry for Jon? I ask because over the years, the manner that Kate treats him is that of the 9th child. Don't get me wrong, I'm married and there are times where my hubby can drive me nuts and I know it's not always perfect, but Kate's need to always be in control is a bit much. Yes, it works with the kids, but w/Jon it just doesn't seem like she treats him like her better half...she seems like the type to only be intimate, when she's ready (if at all!). I know she's older than him, but I think she should relax a little bit..have some fun. What are your thoughts about it? (Mature responses pls)

Answer 1

I totally agree!!! she needs to chill. I'm sure she is really stressed and tired, but he just looks so unhappy all the time. She is always talking down to him. I don't know how he deals with her on a daily basis.

Answer 2

Here is the season finale.. They go to a Museum.



Episode # 91 "Family Outing" March 23, 2009

The Gosselins visit Philadelphia's Please Touch Museum, where the kids learn by touching everything.



At the end during the couch interview they just say the show has been stressful mostly on Jon.



Episode# 92 "B-Ball & More" March 23, 2009

The Gosselins go to a basketball game and meet The Harlem Globetrotters.



They say money changes people well, it looks like its sure changed Kate as now that she's a multimillionaire off the backs of her children she's turned into a diva who shows no respect for her husband.

Answer 3

Yeah I feel the same way. I'm actually one of the few that likes Kate as a person and I think she is a great mom but maybe not such a great wife? Poor Jon..I have always felt bad for him. How embarrassing for him..his wife treats him like one of the 5 year olds on national t.v. It would be nice if Kate would lighten up and have some fun once in a while. It would probably be a good thing for the whole family..

Answer 4

I totally agree with what you are saying here!

I do feel bad for Jon! His wife is a complete control freak.. but we all have to ask ourselves if WE would be controlling if we had 8 children running around, and a husband that isn't always helpful. She has a lot of friends that help, but maybe it's hard that her parents don't help !?( I know if my parents didn't want to be involved with my life cause I had cameras around, Then i would want to stop)



We will see tonight what happens I guess, and hope for the best. I mean it might be hard on them to have all their little arguments caught on tape, personally I would find it quite embarssing to look back on.. especially if their kids want to watch the show when they are older, they have to watch episodes with a lot of screaming and fighting.. and I mean, that could be hard.



I'm trying to think positive in this situation.. They are a beautiful family and they DO have arguments a lot, but no family can be perfect.. my step mom and dad fight.. its part of life! It could be as easy as they just are trying to stop fighting on camera? We have no idea.. TLC could be making the commercial for the episode look MORE intense than it actually is so everyone tunes in!





It'll be hard if they do get divorced, but thats also life too.. a lot of people go through it no matter how big the family is...you can't force yourself to love someone.



So I hope this made sense, :)



I'll make some more comments on this question when I know what the actual episode is about!

Answer 5

I don't need to repeat my opinion since everyone has already mentioned it.



When I watch the newer episodes, I noticed that Kate has changed a lot. Watching the older seasons, she didn't care about her attire much. I remember an episode where they go shopping for clothes and Kate was totally out of her element.



Now, I watch Kate and she is all dolled up with make-up. They show her wearing really nice coats and fancy clothing. Just watch her interview on Larry King, she had so much make-up on that its funny. Its like she has become a celebrity over a mom of 8.

Answer 6

i absoutely agree. That finale question does scare me! With 8 kids, you need to figure it out because there is no way they can seperate. Kate can be controling but she is the mother of 8 children and it can get tough! I agree she should defenitly treat Jon more maturly and with respect. I will be extremely dissapointed if they don't work it out. It isn't an option to get seperated. I think if they talk and try to fix the problems, it will work. and i am really hoping it does!

Answer 7

I do watch the show and, yes, I agree that Kate is way too hard on Jon.

He's totally whipped! The poor guy just takes it, and she belittles him in front of the kids, which is bad. She should be much nicer to him if she wants him to stick around. She should relax A LOT!



P.S. Looks to me like little Mady is headed in the same direction as mama- Beeeatch on wheels! I would so give that kid up for adoption.

Answer 8

She has to be in control of everything or she has a hissy fit. I would like to see her gone from the show and just have Jon and the kids.

I am really starting to dislike her .

Answer 9

I think they are just still in love. Kate and Jon look as if they have acted this way throughout there life. I think they like to bicker at one another and I doubt they would ever divorce. They love eachother more than anything!! Come on if you had 8 kids you would do the same to your husband. She has to be cooped up all day with those little monsters!!!

Answer 10

ya i feel that kate is always yelling at jon and telling him what to do and i get annoyed by it so i can just imagine how he feels

Answer 11

Well, i think Kate is controlling, and Jon is so sarcastic.

I don't know how they got married!

Answer 12

they ARE getting a divorce.and the only reason i know this is because it was on tv that he cheated on her with another woman. but can u blame her?ur right.she treats him like crap and expects him to be staying around for the rest of their life? u cant treat someone like that. and if she has the nerves to do that in front of the whole world theres no tellign what she does when the cameras are off



i agree with that other dude! maddie is rediculously rude and stuck up.shes nothing like her sister.

Answer 13

I think she is so rude to him and she should really stop doing that or she will end up alone
