EXCLUSIVE: Kate Gosselin Doing 'Damage Control', Claims Team Jon
Kate Gosselin came out all guns blazing on the Today Show Wednesday by taking some pot shots at her former husband Jon Gosselin, but his camp believes that she’s the one who is in denial about the current situation and is simply doing damage control, RadarOnline.com is exclusively reporting.
Speaking to Meredith Vieira, the reality TV star claimed that, despite reports, her two kids, Collin and Alexis, (both 6) had not been expelled from school and that Jon had never personally apologized to her for his actions in the past.
Displaying a somewhat sullen demeanor, Kate claimed she still felt "hurt and anger" towards Jon, although she had forgiven him for the sake of their children. But a source close to Jon blasted back at Kate by telling RadarOnline.com: “Look, Kate is just doing damage control and can’t own up to anything herself as usual.
“Everyone knows that a divorce is between two people, it’s not one sided. Jon feels it is unfair that she goes on national television and bashes him and that their kids’ battles should remain private.
“That was the reason he felt the need to cease filming them and why he has not commented on the status of the kids or their schooling either.
“Like most parents would do, he feels for his kids that their business is being made public on television now.
“He believes that any struggles between the two related to their divorce should be kept private and not announced in public either.”
While Kate said on the Today Show that their kids were not expelled from school, she did admit they were having some difficulties coping with dealing with the curriculum and divorce too.
Despite Jon’s Tweet confession that he had made mistakes in the past and now regretted those choices, Kate was not in a forgiving mood. She complained to Vieira: "I have never personally been apologized to," she said showing frustration and anger, adding that she doesn't consider "an interview on TV or a tabloid" the appropriate venue to discuss deep-seeded family issues.
While she admitted she's forgiven Jon "for the sake of my kids," she said she's still licking her wounds from their prickly split of yesteryear.
"I am angry -- I'm hurt and I'm angry," she said, adding she doesn't dwell on the bad stuff because she doesn't "have time to waste being upset."

What a contradiction she is! She says she's forgiven Jon for the sake of her kids and yet she doesn't even allow him inside the gate to pick them up for visitation. What kind of a message does that send to the kids? She doesn't have time to waste being upset and yet she admits she's still hurt and angry. She continues to throw Jon under the bus and yet she doesn't consider "an interview on TV or a tabloid" the appropriate venue to discuss deep-seeded family issues." I have never seen any redeeming qualities in Kate Gosselin. She's constantly being shown on TV only because of the controversy she brings. I never watch anything she's on because I don't want to add to the ratings. It's my only voice.
Yeah I didn't watch either. But, from reading the kaydar article, I didn't miss much. She's been saying the same old thing for the past 1+ years.
Cry me a river.
If Kate is hurt and angry, and it was her choice to give up on the marriage, she should totally understand how much worse it is for her kids. You know, the little ones that have NEVER had a choice in anything that happens to them. And yet they are the ones working to support themselves and their mother and her lavish lifestyle.
She's just bitter over the fact that the show is tanking w/o Jon. She's mad that the show isn't as popular as it was before. She's angry that Jon didn't want to keep filming.
I didn't watch the Today show but watched the clip on another site. Here is what I truly truly don't understand about Kate. Who does she think she's fooling? SERIOUSLY!? Any parent or school official knows 'we are taking a break they are being taught by a private tutor and when school begins next year we will reevaluate' means YOUR KIDS WERE EXPELLED!!! They may have not used the term 'expelled' at that school but that is what happened. Why can't she just say 'we're all struggling? We are still feeling the effects of the last year. Divorce, adjusting to the custody, to my new found fame and everything else that goes on. THAT'S NORMAL!! They are kids not adults! I just ONCE would like to hear her tell of how she struggled the last year to this year. NO ONE who has gone through divorce with kids sits and says 'my kids are wonderful couldn't be happier they are wonderful healed from the divorce and trucking on we don't dwell on those bad feelings cause we don't have bad feelings' (she didn't say that but that's what she meant) It's ridiculous what kind of fantasy world this woman lives in. Again throwing Jon under the bus DISGUSTING. Also of course Meridith interviewed her cause Meridith wouldn't ever ask the tough questions. I wish the school they go to would speak out Kate has probably put gag order on them. This job is Heaven on earth?? Oh Kate someone needs to smack you back into realty
Meridith NEVER calls khate on anything. If Today, The View or any other show wants the truth----interview MADY,CARA ---WITHOUT KHATE.
Khate doesn't know the truth.
i saw the video of kate on today on another website, i was wanting to watch something different and kates interview was first on the list. i could not believe how she stumbled on a early childhood education teacher, she ummmed and awwed all the way through it as if in a hurry to get her very rehearsed lines out there. i just don't have any respect for the today show anymore. i use to get up at 7 am to watch it, no more. i am so proud of jon getting a job! she is angry about the show tanking and she said she was going to continue. did they have court yesterday? do you know what happened?
they may have postponed it.
@lukebandit
LOL! Her Ums and Uhs are very annoying. I saw the youtube of Kate speaking at the Long Beach Woman's conference. She was HORRIBLE.
And yes, HOPEFULLY the story about Jon getting a job is TRUE. Good for him. He MOVED on and Kate is STILL holding Grudges. She even had the nerve to bash the father of 8 on National Television.
Wow! Kate Gosselin throws her OTHER kids under the bus! What a cunt.
Watch! Kate Gosselin: My Other Children Are Doing Wonderfully
"“When you have two kids that are not, um, you know, following the course, um all eight of my kids have always followed the same path, and this is the first time we’ve kind of had kids that haven’t. You have to focus on, you know, it’s so hard because you’re thinking oh my gosh, what in the world? Then I look at my other six who are excelling in school and at home and doing everything wonderfully that they should be doing… um, so they’re amazingly well. No they are not being watched in school, no they are not doing anything other than doing wonderfully, so overall I think we have done very wonderfully.”"

Ugh can't she shut up? She has no right to share such info with millions. She complains about privacy but she gives her kids none.

After Kate Gosselin sat down with Meredith Vieira on NBC's 'Today' show on Wednesday and swore that her children were not expelled from school and that her ex-husband lied when he said he apologized to her for his past behavior, Jon's friends are fighting back, telling me people shouldn't believe a word Kate says.
"She's in even more denial than Dina Lohan," a friend of Jon's tells me, nodding to Dina's similar visit to 'Today' last month. "Kate takes shots at Jon on national TV but will never take any personal responsibility for the mess this family is in. It's like everything that went wrong was all Jon's fault and had nothing to do with her."
During the 'Today' interview, Kate disputed Jon's tweet last month that he has "apologized to Kate" for messing up in the past.
"I have never personally been apologized to," Kate said. "I don't personally consider an interview on TV or a tabloid as an apology, unfortunately. But I have strangely and ironically forgiven him for the sake of my kids."
One TV insider I spoke to believes Kate is being a tad hypocritical when she claims her children's problems are a private matter, while at the same time promoting a TV show centered on the children.
"She wants it both ways. It's time she stopped blaming others, including Jon, and started looking in the mirror," my source says. "It's heartbreaking."
Looks like she has had her lips blown up.
^ LOL, that why she couldn't make it to court on Nov 30th. She was busy getting her lips plumped.
A narcissist (kHate), once wounded (Jon rejected her - who can blame him), will never stop attacking the person who hurt them. Never.
I speak from unfortunate experience. God bless and protect Jon.
@hoops
Agreed. But the only thing Jon did to "hurt" her was tell the world he wanted to stop filming.

Wow, what a Mom of The Year contender. Once an bit(h always a bit(h
To be a fly on the wall in that home...she must just eat those two alive. If they had been in therapy like she said a YEAR ago, this would not have happened. As a teacher I can say that the excuses she gives for the two being asked to leave that school is what a PC Admin of a private school says to avoid legal recourse and she should just stop already.
