Gosselin Kids Split Up In Jon & Kate Divorce?

The bitter divorce battle between warring reality exes Jon & Kate Gosselin won’t be just a division over money and property — it will also split up the former couple’s eight children.

After deciding that one parent “cannot give eight children enought love,” The Gosselins have decided to divide their brood into “two families,” The National Enquirer reports in its Sept. 28 issue.

“Jon and Kate bith realize the nastiness between them was creating an unhealthy atmosphere for the kids, so they’ll split them up,” according to a source close to the stars of TV’s Jon & Kate Plus 8.

For now, Jon and Kate take turns caring for the kids in the $1.3 million Wernersville, Pennsylvania home, but not for long. The new arrangement would see Jon taking the couple’s 8-year-old twins to live with him in New York City, while Kate will remain in the Wernersville home permanently as she embarks on raising the sextuplets, age 5, as a single mom.

“Jon will take the twin girls Mady and Cara, while Kate will get the sextuplets…This is the lesser of two evils,” the insider says.

Jon and Kate plan to introduce the twins to their new live in the Big Apple gradually.

“Cara and Mady will spend some weekends in New York, but Jon would like to enroll them in a private school by spring.”

I don’t think Kate deserves anything, she’s all about the money and fame people wake up. She’s on every talk show looking to get her own so how is she going to have anytime with those kids get real!

i dont think its a good idea to split up the gosselin children. they have always been together, and they would be exposed to jons instability and his women chasing, i think they should all stay with kate who has their best interests at hand and they can help her as older siblings do. kate stay strong,all will work out,but keep your kids together please! other wise they will have a lot of sibling rivaly.

One parent can’t give enough love to eight children?? Are they serious? This is more crazy as insisting the show had nothing to do with their divorce. These people become more dysfunctional as time goes by. I hope they get a judge that is rational and will do what is best for the children and not what is best for their selfish parents.

I dont believe this for a minute! Reminds me of the Playboy offer, another case of an “insider” looking to stir up a controversy.

of course this story has got to be a crock but one has to wonder why it isn’t an even split of the kids. . . does she need to have at least 6 to retain her reality show status?

I’m so sick of seeing Kate Gosselin on magazine covers & promoting her ’sad’ situation on guest spots on t.v. Enough already. She humiliated, brow beat & controlled her husband. Good for him for getting away from her. I feel sorry for the kids as she uses them for the purpose of fame. Be a mother already and quit searching for another 15 minutes of fame over & over. I wish TLC would pull their show. Americans don’t relate to this family any longer. Each episode now is where they can travel to for free & what free things they get through the show. Hmmm like a new kitchen in their ‘new house’. What was wrong with the kitchen that came with the house. Please aim the spotlight at something else!

This is all a bunch of BS. I can’t see how if Kate is running all over the US doing talk shows and all this crap then the Kids aren’t gonna be with her anyway./ And HELLO How is Jon gonna support the 2 girls when he is to busy laying every 20 year old he can find. The kids need to be put in protective custody until their parents go through some parenting classes and get a job and some marriage counseling. And They have that big old house and property. Why don’t TLC just build Jon a house on the back side of the property and move him and the kids into it. And make them all get along and QUIT making money off their kids.

Jon has always been closer to Cara than Kate. Kate can’t handle Mady’s constant tantrums (like hers?). Jon has always been more patient with all the kids. Also he is the only one who ever played with them.

He’s done a lousy job recently with running his life but he always was a better parent–more attentive and involved than Kate has been. I feel sorry for the sextuplets–too much Kate time. She’ll destroy those cute little kids.
