A couple weeks ago we posted photos of Jon and Kate renewing their vows in Hawaii.
A reader sent us this scan from one of the weekly magazines with more pictures and info.
Thanks Nicole!
*the scan came from In Touch Weekly Pg.90 September 1st edition*
Which magazine was this scanned from?
I have no idea… I am hoping that the reader will return my e-mail so that I can credit the magazine and page.
Looks like Entertainment Weekly. That’s the font they use for their title.

It’s crazy to think of them as anything but moochers.
She screamed that we owed her help as we provided the knowledge to produce her 6 kids. The kids are cute, but then again, all kids are.
What an idiot Jon is…he was stupid to marry her the first time.
I agree about the mooching. It disgusts me to think they are getting rich off their kids. I’d love to know how much TLC is paying them or each season and now they have a book coming out!? I’m sure they got a hefty advance from that. I guess that will go to pay for their big new house I keep hearing rumors about. Something tells me they’ll be keeping those cameras around for a long time as long as they keep getting a fat payday from it. The Grand Wailea Resort is one of the nicest in Maui. There’s no doubt TLC footed the bill for this. Gross.
You guys are mean. Can’t you see this family is happy and Jon is happy with Kate and Kate is happy with Jon. With the stress of taking care of 8 children I feel they’re doing a wonderful job. Jon and Kate devote their lives to the kids and will only provide the best to them.
Every couple has their ways of communicating. As an outsider what gives you a right to judge.
The reason they on tv is because we watch the episodes. Is that simple. Human being have curiosity and instead of staring at them when they go out. We get to see them on tv and not ask them so many questions. Kate has always mention that the only reason they go on trips is because of people donation. If a person want to donate their time and money, that their business. If I had six kids, I would want to get money to give them a better life. IF this is the way she can afford it, then let it be. Some of have two jobs to to feed our children and she just has to take care of them and let people watch them. Not a bad deal. I though the same thing about Jon that she abuses him but now that I watch the show, I noticed Jon love the way he is treated by Kate because I am pretty sure he can say something, and he also know how to make her tick. Love is strange.
I know many men would WANT to go to work each morning, to get away from Kate, if nothing else. But really, wouldn’t most men feel embarrassed to live the life of an entitled person? They charge from $25,000 to $50,000 for their live “presentations.” They get all expenses paid, first class airline reservations and hotel all paid. Everything they eat and everything they use is donated to them by sponsors hoping their product will be mentioned or seen in the TV episodes. Their children already have college funds set up for them, thanks to the State of Pennsylvania. Their new home, which will be 8,000 square feet doesn’t cost them a dime. Who can justify all of this? Shame, shame. They are common welfare trash.
omg i love this show(L)
Wow, can you say jealous!? Geez, you people have no shame whatsoever! OMFG, just because you wish you were in their situation AND AREN’T, you need to go and bash this special family?! Wow, and you say “shame shame” on them? Go ahead a look in the mirror and say “shame shame” to yourself.
Envy is what mean people are. who cares if they are getting things paid for? obviously people enjoy watching them, why do it for free? how many people would let cameras follow them around constatly for free? not i! I think what they are doing is great and hope to see them on tv for a long while and watch their children grow up.
CONGRATS TO YOU ALL! LOOKING FORWARD TO THE UPCOMING SEASON WHEN YOU MOVE INTO YOUR NEW HOUSE.
I absolutley looooove Jon and Kate Plus 8!! I know more about the show and their family than anyone else…everybody is like leaving them bad comments, and I don’t get it. They raise their kids so well. I just love Jon, Kate, Cara, Mady, Alexis, Hannah, Aaden, Collin, Leah, and Joel!!!
Does anyone know where the Gosselins are moving…I haven’t heard on the show or from anybody. I am really curious. I like have to know everything about them…:)
Have they sold their house yet? I heard they’ll be moving to North Carolina to be near TLC.
I agree - who would let cameras follow them around for free. More power to them. I absolutely love this show. I think Kate & Jon are doing a great job raising those 8 kids. What gives anyone the right to slam them unless they have walked an hour in their shoes. I can only imagine how stressful. The banter between Kate & Jon is harmless. I can’t wait to see more (including the new home).
I was a big fan for the first few years. Yet the more “non” essential treats that were bestowed on camera hit me in a different way. I grew up in a large family and no one ever offered my mom and dad a wedding vowel renewal in Hawaii. First of all, Jon and Kate chose to have the treatments that created this family. It was not God, but Jon and Kate and their doctor’s decision. They are very lucky the children appear to be on a healthy growing path. That is not always the case with multiples. Over the past few years since the McCauleys (sp) of Iowa, we have seen an increase in multiple births. The public reacts and rewards these families with vans, clothes, diapers, education and houses in some cases. We are walking a slippery slope because television series and magazine covers don’t happen for all these families. I am very worried where all of this is headed.
Are you all serious? Calling them selfish? If you had 8 kids would you NOT want to provide the BEST life for them?
Good Grief! If anyone wants to help my family of 4 kids that would benefit them! I’d do it in a heartbeat!
Go Jon and Kate!
I am an older women who loves the show I think your family is so precious and I look forward to watching the childern grow and I hope you continue to make more episodes.
It makes me sick to watch there show now and see all the free stuff just handed to them. I guess you could say I am jealous. Sure I would love a free trip to Hawaii. I know they have eight kids but other families have just as many struggles as they do with everyday life. They are no different then everyone else. I use to love watching there show when it first started but now it is just ridicules to see all the freebies. Wish someone would send it to a family that really needs it.
It is common for companies to give people on TV free stuff. It is their form of practical advertising.
While it may seem that the Gosselins get an excess of free stuff, the truth is that most things that you see on TV are provided to the production companies for free.
The bigger issue here is that many people started watching this show because this was a normal family with a lot of kids trying to get by on an average salary, while living in an average house.
Now that they have become more popular, this family is no longer average because they have ‘people’ to do the things that you and I would normally do for ourselves.
This is true with any personality you see on TV the only difference is that celebrities that do reality shows don’t market themselves as normal people.
Jon & Kate are trying their best to provide a happy life for the children God has given them. Anyone in their shoes would do the same. People who make negative comments are just jealous. It isn’t that they are continuing to have children like some reality families you see on tv - they are raising the 8 that were born from just 2 pregnancies!
THE WONDERFUL THING ABOUT NOT LIKING A PROGRAM ON TV IS THAT YOU CAN CHANGE THE CHANNEL PEOPLE!!! IF YOU DONT LIKE THE WAY THE SHOW IS GOING OR ARE JEALOUS OF ALL THE FREE STUFF THEY GET THEN GET YOUR BEHIND UP AND CHANGE IT TO SOMETHING MORE PLEASING TO YOU. AS FOR ME, I LOOVEE THE MORAL’S AND CHRISTIAN VALUES THAT JON & KATE TEACH THEIR KIDS. MORE POWER TO THEM!
I used to like watching Jon and Kate when it first started…just to see how they handled all those kids. I thought it was really interesting how organized they were and thought it was so great how they wanted to be as “normal” as they could possibly be. Well that sure flew out the window huh? They are definitely not a normal family. Now that’s all the shows are about is the family on vacation. That’s all they do is go on vacation. I feel bad for the older girls. They get to have all of their tantrums and “ugliness” shown for the world to see which includes all of their friends at school. How embarrassing for them. It’s just wrong for them to continue doing this show. They have changed so much and it’s really too bad. Now they are living the celebrity life. That’s great that they can provide better for their kids now and go on all these amazing vacations, but the kids have to give up all of their privacy in return. It’s not right. And have you noticed how many more shows they are making. The cameras must be around 24/7 at this point. The show is not interesting at all anymore but the bigger issue is the children and the fact that Jon and Kate are continuing this whole thing. Those kids didn’t ask to be celebrities. They are going to be totally messed up if this doesn’t stop. They say that cameras alter behavior. Um…HELLO!!!
I really like the show and yes this family’s life has changed. Things have gotten easier for Jon and Kate….but they do have 8 kids to take care of. TLC offered the Gosselins the opportunity and they took it. They made the best choice for them and their situation and I’m pretty sure that if any of us were in their shoes we would have done the same. What we also have to remember is that TLC picks and edit shows that the viewing public will want to see….hence all of the vacation shows and not so much of the “mundane” day to day stuff.
If what the show airs bothers you…..CHANGE THE CHANNEL. If enough people follow suit, then the show will simply go off and comment boards like this will disappear as well.
Sofia,
What morals and christian values are Jon and Kate teaching their children?
I CAN’T BELIEVE ALL THE HATE COMMENTS ON THE FAMILYS THAT ARE ON TLC- YES I’M AWARE THAT THEY ALL GET PAID! ANYONE WHO BASHES THE FAMILYS ARE JELIOUS! IF YOU DONT LIKE YOUR JOB, IF YOUR NOT MAKING THE LIFE YOU WANT- DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT-JELIOUS PEOPLE- IF YOU KNOW THE LAW OF ATTRACTION- YOU CAN HAVE A BETTER LIFE TOO- (RIGHT A BOOK ABOUT HOW YOU HATE THE FAMILY ON TV LOL) THERE IS SO MUCH SMUTT ON TV, ID NEVER LET MY KIDS WATCH SMUTT. IT IS REFRESHING TO SEE THE NICE FAMILYS ON TV..THEY ARE A BLESSING.
I ASK DO YOU HATE ALL MOVIE ACTORS THAT GET PAID WAY MORE-
DO YOU HATE THE TONS OF SINGERS ROCK AN ROLL- COUNTRY RAPP PEOPLE OUT THERE- THEY GET PAID ALOT-OH HOW ABOUT THE FOOTBALL PALYERS-
WHY BOTHER WASTING YOUR BRAIN POWER BEING CONCERNED IF JON AND KATE ARE CELEBS OR NOT! YOUR THE ONE WHO IS GREEN WITH ENVEY!
WHAT EVER YOU DONT LIKE ABOUT YOUR LIFE YOU CAN CHANGE-
better job more money- diff husband-
what has happend to the Jon an Kate plus Eight is a blessing for them-and lot of other people who love wathcing.
FOCUS ON WHAT YOU LOVE IN LIFE- YOU WILL GET MORE OF THAT.
MAY YOU BE AT PEACE ..
i’d rather watch a happy family on tv than the rest of the crap they put on. It’s interesting see how other family’s grow, even if they are altered a little bit from the camera. For the haters, if being on tv meant my children got to experience going to different places and living a better life I would do it.
a pretty cool faimily
I agree with what a lot of the other people that have left comments. I use to enjoy watching the show when they were an average family. Now every show seems to be about them traveling to so many different places that they are not the normal average family anymore. In one show Kate made a comment that if they are able to travel with 8 kids anyone can. What she fails to realize is that she always has help with her when they travel and most average families can’t affort to travel half as much as they do. I’m not trying to bash the family or put them down but their kids are not going to realize what a normal childhood is with having cameras following them around their house and everywhere that they go to. I don’t see this show lasting very long because people are going to get tired of watching this so called normal family. Does Jon even work anymore or are they just living off of what they make from the show??
I LOVE THIS SHOW!!!! and WILL BE WATCHING IT TIL ITS OVER!!!
i don’t get it. why is it wrong for jon and kate to get a job to provide for their family? doing this TLC show is a job and a source of income for the family. and if companies want to give freebies to jon and kate to get their products on the show, why not take it? it’s a win wine situation for both parties. the haters wouldn’t say anything if jon was working 3 jobs at starbucks, at the mall or any other jobs to support his family right? being on TLC is just another job to provide for his family. how dare anyone say anything negative for parents trying to provide for their family… it makes no sense to me. and jon and kate are thankful for everything they have and WORK for. you would do the same thing, i know i would.
