Kate Gosselin: I'm Doing it for the Money

She works hard for the money, so hard for it, honey. She works hard for the money, so you better treat her right. While Jon Gosselin has been busy partying around town and making out with his girlfriend for the paps, Kate Gosselin has been making the media rounds.

Kate and her hair made a pit stop at 'The View' this morning, filling in for Elisabeth Hasselbeck. And during the "Hot Topic" segment, Kate defended her decision to keep filming after her marriage fell apart.

She explained, "I could stop and I would still have all of the flack and the lack of a paycheck. I'm a single mom, and now more than ever I need to be out there working hard," Kate said. "My focus is supporting my children and whatever way that [is]... I'm going to do it."

Unlike Jon, Kate kept it classy and didn't bash Jon and his new relationship with 22 year-old girlfriend Hailey Glassman. She simply called the situation "difficult." She said she was taking the "high road" with topics like that in order to protect her children.

She said, “The truth, for the sake of my children, I’m going to take the high road [and not talk about it]. I melted down over the weekend. In the privacy of my own home, I melted down. It’s difficult. It’s difficult to wake up every day and wonder what things are going to be thrown my way.”

During the show it was so easy to dislike Kate and feel sympathy for Jon, but as soon as the cameras stopped rolling and Jon became a douchebag, we can't help but side with Kate a little bit. Are you over the Gosselin's?

I am for team Kate. Jon is an ass and a douchbag. Things between Jon and Kate need to be civil for the sake of the kids, however, Jon had to take the low road and publically bash Kate. Kate was getting more attention than him in the reality show and also out in the public and I don't think he could handle playing second fiddle to her, so he had to have an affair. Kate deserves better than Jon, and so what if Kate works, she has 8 kids to support, while Jon is out having fun with his girlfriend.

They're both douchbags! She was a horrible bossy control freak on the show, and now he's acting like a spoiled teenager. They're both too selfish to take care of that many kids. I just can't see her as a victim.

I hate it when people come on sites that have nothing to do with what they are trying to promote (iijkoler!) and advertise!!! :( I am slowly coming back to the Team Kate side! She may not have handled how she treated her husband on camera too well but she is handling the separation with much more class. Jon on the other hand has smeared the family name over and over again since the rumors began. I remember when I heard the first rumors about Jon I was standing up for him all over the place blaming the paps. Too bad he totally screwed himself by his immature, juvenile & embarrassing behavior!

I do not approve of some of the things that Jon has chosen to do. He knows that the PAP are always on the look out to ruin someones life by publishing the things that they do publish. My heart goes out to the children as the negative publicity has to be affecting them. I don't blame him at all for not wanting to stay married to Kate, as, in my opinion, she is not a very nice person and all she cares about is herself. Since she had her tummy tuck(I was/am very happy for her that she did have the surgery), I cannot get over how conceited she has become. Her treatment of Jon got even worse after she got her tuck, new hair do and make-up. She made a point in the beginning how she gave up her job as a nurse to stay home and take care of the children. Why does she now feel that it is okay for her to "go to work" and leave the children for days on end? Does she think they don't need a mom at home anymore, or, has she convinced them that she is doing all of this traveling for them? She has become a money hungry, self centered egomaniac. I cannot believe that she has the audacity to treat her brother Kevin, and, Auntie Jody the way she has. I don't know of to many brothers/sisters/sisters-in-law who would do what they have done for her and Jon and then she just kicks them to the curb. I hope she gets over herself and goes back to being a mother to her eight children. They did not ask to be born. I cannot even watch the show anymore, as, I get so upset when I see those beautiful children and what their lives have become. God bless the Gosselin children my prayers are with you. Upset Nana
