What did Kate mean by that statement? The sheeple may interpret it the Jon before the "Scandal", which of course is wrong.
What Kate
probably meant by "the old Jon back" is the Jon that put TLC and their Reality Show before the kids, before the Family and before Friends. When Jon met Kate she was always controlling. He wasn't allowed to see any of his friends and during his dad funeral, Kate demanded that he not attend.
Kate was so controlling, that any "suggestions" given to her by ANYONE would be met with a GTFO my life response. Which explains why Kate has no friends and is no longer talking with any of her parents. Before the show, Kate's parent were very much involved with the twins. After the sextuplets were born, Kate took her Narcissism to the extreme and it was HER WAY OR THE HIGH WAY.
Kate even admitted that the reason why she is no longer in contact with her parents was because
"their opinions are not my opinions". See
video here.
Kate's Parent : GONE
Kevin and Jodi: GONE
Beth Carson: GONE
Jon Gosselin: GONE
See the trend? Kate blames everyone but herself. So what about Kate? When will the kids get to see the "old" Kate back? You know, the Kate before she thought she was famous? The Kate before the Boob Job. The Kate before the "Multiple Blessings" was released.
After Multiple Blessings was released, Kate spent more times away from home did she did with the kids. Behind the certains and away from the camera, it was Jon who took care of the kids and spent real quality time with the kids.
Kate Gosselin even admitted to this. In one episode, Kate said that Jon was more of the Hands on parent who spent time to have little talks with each and every kids. While Kate was more of a "snack" parent. Where she would give the kids snack and send them off to leave her alone. (Season 3 - Discipline Episode).
When the dusts finally settles and Kate no longer has a show, what is going to happened? Will Kate get a real job support her kids? Will she sell the mansion and move into a more affordable home?
Or, will she begs let her family back in and ask for help? Remember the fake article from Pop stating that Jon wants to get back with Kate? Maybe that story was leaked out by Kate herself. BUT, instead of Jon wanting Kate back, maybe it was Kate that wanted Jon back. After all, when they were together, Jon Gosselin served her hand and food. And she is starting to miss it.
But Jon will never take you back Kate. So why don't you pull the stick out.
