Jon Gosselin: 'I Have Changed'

It's no secret that the Gosselins are going through a tough time in the marriage department, and now Jon and Kate are tackling the tabloid drama head-on!

In a clip from Monday's "Jon and Kate Plus 8," a distressed Kate says, "We haven't really known where we were going, but we've been dealing with this for, um, a long time."

Jon is rumored to be having an affair with a 23-year-old teacher, and Kate has been linked to her married bodyguard. Jon tells the cameras, "People think I've changed, and I have changed, but I'm now the person I know I am." Is that clear?

Kate takes a deep breath and reveals, "We can't go back now, we can only go forward. And that's what we're going to do, and we're going to learn a lot going forward. And I know that we'll all come out of this on the other side, um, hopefully stronger, better, wiser."

Moving out could be an option for Jon. "Extra" has confirmed Jon has been checking out apartments at Trump Place in New York City.

Attorney Lois Liberman tells "Extra" divorce for parents with eight children would be extremely difficult. "Each parent can't handle all eight at the same time, and require assistance from the other parent or nannies," and Liberman adds that Jon and Kate might divide the eight. "For them to split the kids in some sort of access schedule would allow each parent to get some meaningful time with the children. You've got a very big brood here."

TLC's "Shalom in the Home" host Rabbi Shmuley thinks there's hope if the cameras are turned off. He says, "It can only be saved if they go off TV... they have to make a choice."

KATE OBVIOUSLY DOES NOT WANT TO TURN OFF THE CAMERAS. SHE LOVES THE ATTENTION, MONEY, MEDIA, ETC. IF SHE REALLY LOVES HE FAMILY, CHILDREN SHE WOULD DO WHAT SHE KNOWS IS RIGHT. AND JON NEEDS TO BE MORE OF A DAD THAN GO PARTY EVERYDAY, COME ON. YOU ARE A MARRIED MAN, DAD, ETC. THEY BOTH NEED TO TURN OFF THE CAMERAS AND GO TO COUNSLING AND FIX ALL THAT IS BROKEN. JON AND KATE, THINK… TURN THE CAMERAS OFF, FOR THE SAKE OF YOUR FAMILY.

I think you people have it all wrong about Kate. Sure, she appears hard, strong and no nonsense, but she loves her family and takes very good care of those children. Jon appears to be meek, mild and nonchalant, which I believe is his reason for being attracted to Kate in the first place because opposite attacks. I think this makes a perfect match because of the balance it gives. In addition, have you notice how nice and well behaved the children are? Kate has good control over her family situation. I have never seen anyone with that many children have such well mannered, well behaved and polite little children and I have been watching “Super Nanny” for years. So, give the lady a break. I hope they stay together.

I really hope that Jon and Kate work things out. They have eight beautiful children that need both parents. I don’t believe that Jon cheated on Kate!!!!

While Jon & Kate are making some “life changing decisions,” are you helping or hurting them and their children? Better yet, what are you doing for your own marriage? Refocus the chatter to praying for this family, their healing, and find resources and tools to help strengthen your marriage.
