Gosselin Tell-All Book in the Works

May 28, 2009 | Television

Just when you thought you heard it all about Kate and Jon Gosselin... of course, there's more! Kate's brother Kevin Kreider is shopping his tell-all take on "Jon and Kate" mania, for the low, low price of just $30,000.

Kate Gosselin's brother is shopping a tell-all book

On Wednesday's "Early Show," Kreider complained about his estranged sister and said the eight Gosselin children were "exploited" and treated as "a commodity." "We're speaking out now because we want to be the voice of our nieces and nephews," Kevin kvetched.

Kevin is following in his sister's literary footsteps. The 34-year-old mom has written two New York Times Best Seller books, with a third due to hit stores this fall. Kate's cookbook, "Love Is in the Mix: Making Meals into Memories" will be released October 13, 2009.

I don’t know where that $30,000 figure came from….but that’s not how publishing your book works.
He could receive an advance from a publishing company (as he’s writing and planning the book)….then a percentage of every book sold.
In any case, Kevin and Jodi are the believable ones, so I would buy that book in a N.Y. minute.
As said above, BETH CARSON authored that Multiple Blessings book, with Kate telling her the stories. Kate is as much of an author as she is a sweet angel. The second book is all pics.
The third one should be called “Lovers in the Mix”. She has stated on her program that if you need a recipe you are NOT a cook! All she does is lie. Don’t even bother.

Jon and Kate DESERVE each other.

Free the kids.

Make J & K live unhappily ever after in the new big mansion.

Let’s be honest here—Kate didn’t write those books. The first was written by her dear friend Beth who she gave little credit to when it was published. And that second book is just pictures with post-its throughout.
Is he really going to write a book? How is that confirmed?? Baloney!

Pfft! This is Kate’s Public Relations team working to diminish the Kreiders. The only blog that has picked this story up is Baby Mama’s. She is probably working with Kate’s PR team to facilitate the illusion of J&K.

The children are not being abused or “over worked” they play and the camera people tape it…the ladies on the View make me laugh! Really is that the only thing they have to talk about I feel for the producers. Kate is a great mom and has given much to her children and have given much up for her children, what is wrong with her having a career. She seems happier and more confient. come on ladies! I hope they do stay together and I believe they will because she doesnt want to give up neither does he they just have to have time to figure out the mess and the “P” people dont make it any easy…i would hate to have my marriage on TV I can only guess what the media would say!

just thank God that yu don’t have a brother like this. he is obviously so jealous and just trying to get his 15 min. of fame and the money that goes with it. It was ok for his kids to be on tv, but not that J&K have his number it’s not ok for their kids.PLEASE! CAN YOU SAY SLEEZE?!!!

I just don’t understand Kevin n Jodi! It seems like they just want 2 make money off of someones life. He needs 2 stop being jealous of his sisters fame n quit selling her out! Did any1 ever stop 2 think maybe Kate has good reason 4 stopping contact with the 2 of them?

If they were being paid 3300 per episode to appear on the show before, then quit when Kate didn’t want them to be under contract, how does that make them any better? Were they not also exploiting the Gosselin kids(and their own)? Such hypocrites.

I think Kate’s brother is just as obsessed with fame as she is! That’s the only reason they want to do a tell all…I think they all need to get lives!

I hope that Kevin and Jodi do a tell all! Jon and Kate deserve it and I think that they have proven with their recent videos that they are not out to slander them, but to get the truth out so that these kids can become kids and not reality show stars. And who cares if they make a few bucks doing it? I dont, they deserve some compensation for dealing with the horrible Kate. I will buy it for full price!

Im glad we will all finally hear the REAL TRUTH about what a monster Kate really is. WHO better to know then her own brother. Im glad he is writing it. Shedevil Kate snuffed Kevin and Jodi out of money when TLC wanted to pay them Kate went INSANE and forbid it. NOW Kate you should of thought about that BEFORE you screwed YET another person over. I WILL BUY KEVINS BOOK FOR SURE… NEVER would I EVER EVER EVER read word ONE shedevil writes. EVER

WOW

I guess it’s not “all in the family” when it comes to Jodi and Kevin(joke). Sell your sister, brother-in-law, and their kids for the “all” mighty dollar. I agree with the previous post, they were not complaining when their own kids were being filmed in the earlier episodes. So pathetic.

I totally agree that the family is using Jon and kate for financial purposes, just the same way the “P” word is using Jon and Kate to sell papers

what i love about kevin and “aunt” jodi is that they allowed their own kids to be filmed and on the show..until kate had enough and told them to get lost. it was okay enough for you to be on tv, your kids and the gosselins then..but now? oh no!

the voice of the children? they act as if the kids are being abused. that’s absured. i’ve been around abused kids. mentally, emotionally and physically and these kids are anything but. and im sure if they were and their needs not being met that with all the “hours” of footage from their lives..we’d of seen it and the authorities called in.

all the comments on kevin and jodi say the same thing. they are greedy and they are the ones exploting the situation. I AGREE. shame on you. i hope you crawl back under the rock you came from. no wonder why you arent around the kids. good god.

Kevin and Jodi are HYPOCRITES. They’re exploiting their family’s situation to make cash. They were paid to give interviews to the tabloids, not they want $30,000 more?! I hope people can see through their act. Honestly, with family like this… who needs enemies? They should be ashamed of themselves. They’re going too look back at this and regret being so greedy.

pretty sad when you will sell out your own family.There is concern then there is wanting to make money off your family.I’m surprised her parents haven’t come out of the wood work.
