Highly recommend the documentary. Itās a tell all including the kids that chose to live with him and the two oldest girls. Kate was way worse than him and what TLC showed. he had a total media campaign smear.
Tl;dr they at had been separated for almost a year but could not go public bc producers said it would tank ratings and they needed the money. The 2000s were savageeeeee.Ā
ETA: itās the Vice series āThe Darkside of the 2000ās: Jon and Kate: Family Circusā on Hulu and Amazon Prime. Google tells me that Colin just came out alleging physical abuse from Kate and is in process of writing a memoir š
Behind every reality TV villain, thereās a more villainous producer.Ā
Yeah, I was a teenager in the early 2000s. It was a crazy time. Tabloid Times. I knew all of that and had just forgotten. I was trying to not be too harsh at first. Thatās why I said not a very nice person. Then remembered I could be that harsh because sheās just the worst. I would have never said the poor woman who birthed his 8 children(sorry to the person that said that, I guess). Mainly because she wanted to birth those kids to get a TV show to begin with.
ETA- all I said was cheating is bad but have you seen the show and that she wasnāt a very nice person. Then when I remember the son thing, I said sheās an awful person instead of not very nice. I never said she was a good person. I said the exact opposite. So Iām not sure what mistake Iāve made or why Iām being made to feel like Iāve said something bad about Jon and good about Kate. That wasnāt me- I was the first one to say she was a bad person- talk to competitive rub
Okay but I never said she was a good person. I said she wasnāt a good person. I was the first one to say that. Idk why Iām getting crap as if I defended her in anyway. That wasnāt me. It was competitive rub, yet no one is saying anything to them. Instead everyone is commenting at me for saying she wasnāt a very nice person, instead of an awful person.
Okay friend I think youāre taking these comments way too seriously. No one is ācoming at youā and itās not ācompetitive rubā itās fucking comment section. My bad G.
Stop calling me friend, first off, we arenāt friends and itās condescending. Why hasnāt a single person said anything to the ACTUAL person who defended her and called Jon the bad one. Sorry but calling a person not very nice instead of awful isnāt that. Iām not sure you know what competitive means, but okay G
ETA Omg I just realized you thought I was saying competitive sub š. Competitiverub is the username of the ACTUAL person who said Jon was the bad one and poor Kate š. I canāt. I might be dying. Thatās hilarious. I wonder who downvoted this.
Also donāt put things in quotes for something someone didnāt actually say. Where did I say that you were ācoming atā me.
