My deepest apologies, but I wanted to mention something about Jon && || Kate ++8. I’ve watched the show maybe three times, and every time I’ve found the show deeply disturbing. The last time I watched it was the worst, especially with the news of their pending relationship demise.
There seems to be something deeply wrong with how this all unfolded; it feels like a few months ago I saw a number of shocking headlines splashed across magazines in the supermarket, deep rumblings in the beginning of the show and apparently last night Kate filed for divorce.
I (amongst many) thought that Kate was a control freak who belittled her husband regularly. But to have read what he said last night, I’m sympathetic toward Kate. Clearly, this guy checked out of his marriage a while ago. But worse still, he’s checked out of being a dad. He has very little interest in his family, and it saddens me to no end.
Yes, he’s only 32. And yes, I can see how he can feel burnt out having all those kids 3+ years ago; no, I can’t imagine going from 2 to 8 kids at my age. But, those kids don’t know any better – they presume that their dad loves them unconditionally. That’s clearly not what is happening right now.
I’m amazed at his excitement in becoming single again. Here he is, this supposed evangelical, buying an apartment in Trump Towers on the prowl again. Is he planning go clubbing? Dude, you have eight kids. You were getting paid to show love to your kids.
C’mon, grow the hell up.
Lord knows I’m not a perfect dad. But Nora never goes a day without knowing that I love her unequivocally. I can’t imagine just up and leaving her for greener pastures just because things got hard. The dude has it made: he gets $75K a show (with 40 shows this season) just to hang out with his kids.
What’s so hard about his life, anyway?
I feel bad for Kate. She has the personality of a brick, but he sounds like a guy who planned to bail on his family a long time ago, and she wasn’t expecting it.
