Jon and Kate Plus 8 - Big Announcement - Divorce Papers Filed
According to People.com Jon and Kate Gosselin have officially filed for a divorce at a Courthouse in Doylestow, Pa. The divorce papers were filed today, Monday June 22, 2009, the same day that the Jon & Kate Plus 8 “special announcement” show is scheduled to air.
The commercial promoting the big announcement show has gloom and doom written all over it, so it won’t be much of a surprise to viewers if the Gosselin’s officially announce that they are divorcing this evening during the hour long episode of the show.
The Gosselins have gone through the tabloid ringer over the past few months which has led to speculation that they were heading for a divorce. The couple who once had some on screen chemistry now seem uncaring and distant, barely even looking at one another when they are together.
Although Kate and Jon Gosselin have been experiencing relationship problems for quite a while now it wasn’t until May 2009 that they publicly announced they were having marital difficulties. The couple came clean about their problems shortly after Jon Gosselin was caught with Deanna Hummel, the 23-year-old woman whom he’s been accused of having an affair with.
Next it was Kate who was accused of having an affair with her personal bodyguard, a rumor that she’s continuously denied over the past couple of months.
We’ll have to wait until tonight’s episode of “Jon & Kate Plus 8″ to find out if a divorce is what the two will be announcing but after People.com’s report I would be surprised if Jon and Kate’s announcement is anything other than the two officially splitting.
Update - June 23 2009 - The Gosselin’s announced during their Monday night show that they are separating and that divorce papers have been filed.
Here’s the announcement from the June 22, 2009 episode of “Jon & Kate Plus 8:”

Hi Gena,
I do to, the show last night was very sad and I felt especially sorry for Kate, and of course the kids too.
