Jon & Kate Gosselin have been kaput for months, and the warring reality couple may soon be separated from the airwaves, if the unhappy hubby gets his way. Jon Gosselin is attempting to shut down production of the family’s reality series, Jon & Kate Plus 8, according to The Insider. Jon’s attorney, Mark J. Heller, has sent two letters to TLC lawyers, demanding the show’s parent network “cease and desist production and leave his property.”

The move comes just days after TLC bosses moved to rename the show Kate Plus Eight — drastically cutting Jon’s time on camera in the process.

“Jon realized his family was like a trainwreck, so he decided to put the brakes on the divorce and on the show … because if he didn’t the family would be in a mortal accident … the victims of a trainwreck,” Heller told The Insider Thursday.

Heller claims TLC and the Gosselin family “may very well be ‘null and void’ and unenforceable.” He claims that TLC never secured the special permits required by Pennsylvania Child Labor Law as a “prerequisite” for the Gosselin children’s involvement in “Jon & Kate Plus 8.”
In a letter to TLC, obtained by The Insider, Gosselin’s legal team writes: “Jon Gosselin unequivocally believes that his children’s continued participation in your client’s television production is ‘detrimental’ to his children. Accordingly, Jon expects that your client will cease and desist from any and all further production which includes his eight children…..Effective immediately no production crews are to enter Jon Gosselin’s family home for any reason. In the event that anyone enters the marital property, Jon Gosselin will notify the local authority to effectuate Police action against any trespassers.”

Jon Gosselin is expected to appear on CNN’s Larry King Live this evening.
