Minority Report: Jon & Kate Drama Unfolds

Has anyone else been following this Jon & Kate story? Things just got a bit sticky for these two.....Here's the latest:


In the new issue of Us Weekly (on newsstands Wednesday), five people close to the situation - including two relatives of the other woman - confirm that Jon & Kate Plus 8 dad Jon Gosselin, 32, has been having an affair with third grade school teacher Deanna Hummel.

The most explosive blow-by-blow details are revealed by Deanna's older brother - and roommate - Jason, who tells Us Weekly that he is speaking out now to set the record straight and to protect his naive sister.

"She's a nice girl, not a homewrecker," Jason tells Us Weekly. "He is a bad liar. This isn't healthy for her. But she is refusing to help herself, so here I am trying to help her myself. I hope this clears the air."

After Jon and Deanna met in mid-January at Chill Lounge in Reading, Pennsylvania (they sent each other $3 shots), Jason says Jon -- who has twins, 8, and sextuplets, 5 -- began relentlessly pursuing his sister. By mid-February, he was coming over to their Reading house.

On April 26 - while his wife Kate was traveling - Jon had Deanna over to sunbathe in his family's front lawn (see photo, left). This was just seven days after they had first been photographed together at Legends Lounge at 2 a.m. in pictures that show he is not wearing his wedding band.

At the Hummel house, Jason says Deanna and Jon would "pretty much stay locked away like two teenagers. It was weird. He's a grown man."

He also adds, "A lot of the time, it was pretty, um, gross listening to her, you know, um — how do I say this? The walls are thin. Let’s just say that. I mean, no one wants to hear his sister having sex, let alone with a married dude who's, like, almost twice her age and who has eight kids and a maybe-crazy wife. Ick. Nast."


GV Says: This is quite unfortunate....for the wife, for the kids, for the young teacher involved...even for Jon. More importantly why on earth would the brother expose her like that. I don't get it. As much as I'd love to run Jon through the wringer, the truth is I can't even fathom the stress that 8 kids brings at just 32. I'm at my breaking point just babysitting for someone else. SMH....this is bad for everyone. At some point this can't be good their reality TV show either - something that I know helps to pay the bills.

  • I think Kate has become very stuck up over the seasons. She needs to come back to earth and pay attention to her husband and not her fame. She reminds me of those stuck up high class women who gives women a bad name

  • The man is only Human ! Wouldn't you want to escape his situation? I do not think he had time to enjoy life as a young guy. I do hope for the Best. I hope they can work this out. They need to stop doingthe show and think about their family.

  • Jon may be looking for the love he lacks at home due to a wife that only can seem to give commands and snide, demeaning remarks. The kids are affected. You can tell this because one of the twins is always moody & having tantrums. One of the girls of...
