Jon Gosselin is a faithful husband and good dad, say friends
"Jon & Kate Plus 8" star Jon Gosselin is not a philanderer or bad parent, his friends insist.
The reality star was targeted by another celebrity mag earlier this week when he was spotted out with a woman who was not his wife, but friends are coming to his defense to clear his name.
Longtime friend Brian Sep tells People, "He's just hanging out, relaxing with his friends. Honestly, he doesn't go out that much. It seems like he's on house lockdown. He's a full-time Dad." Pat Fagan, a bouncer at the club where Gosselin was photographed with the woman adds, "They seemed like casual friends. "There was no romantic anything. They weren't gazing into each other eyes."
Gosselin issued a statement also claiming that the woman was just a friend, but his partying that night was "poor judgment."
Gosselin became a dad fairly young, when he probably didn't get all his partying out of his system. That is a deliberate choice he and his wife Kate Gosselin made, more so than most couples because they had to seek intrauterine insemination in order to get pregnant.
We're willing to cut Gosselin a little slack. Should he be partying late into the night when he's a family man and his wife is away? Probably not. But should he be able to with impunity on occasion, without rampant rumors about infidelity? Sure.
Then again, if this frequent partying and getting photographed with other women and college coeds is going to hurt his family, he should probably reevaluate and keep a lower profile. Just sayin'.
Your thoughts? Is it all as innocent as everyone wants us to believe? Even so, could the marriage be on the rocks anyway?

If I had 8 screaming, demanding (albeit cute) rug rats and that condescending, ball buster for a wife (who wouldn't blink twice to humiliate me on cable TV) - I'd be either drunk 50 percent of the time or hiding from them in order to get some piece and quiet.
But Jon, to paraphrase Super Chicken "You knew the kind of job you were gettin' into we you took it." Don't start wussing out now. It's way, way too late.
Ugh... That's "when" not 'we'.
Damn, itchy "enter" trigger finger!
Oh and that's "Peace" not "piece" (heheheheh!)
Thsi guy is an idiot and his place is with his wife and his kids. He's crazy enough to have all these kids, then be smart enough to take care of them all. Is he the male octo-mom?
Excuse me, we're supposed to care?
this isn't exactly the first time for him! didn't he just say he used bad judgement a few weeks back? and now again? so if he thinks it's bad judgement, then why does he keep doing it? what a couple family friends say is irrelevant.
something's definitely rotten in Denmark....
How about you stop wasting time posting about crap like this. It's not meaningful so get a life and a real job. Thanks for your time. Obama rules.
if u didnt care u wouldnt comment jay..ya big douche
Like "duh!" said, it's the second time. The first time he was with a bunch of college girls, hanging all over a tall blonde one, and telling them he was probably going to get a divorce. The second time, he was quoted as calling the brunette woman "babe."
When Jon and Kate renewed their wedding vows in Hawaii, Kate kept repeating they would always be together and never get a divorce.
What to make of all this? Who knows, but something isn't right. They did agree to another season of Jon & Kate Plus 8 though so hmmmmmm????
(I have to admit that despite everything I do love this show for some reason!!! Why???lol)
This show is the one of the best arguments against having unprotected sex and unplanned parenthood.
A constant reminder to potential, naive procreators that there are also families out there that DON'T have their own TV program to help pay the bills big families generate.
A wake up call to men who don't want to grow up that either you stay that way or accept that once your part of a family and get metaphorically castrated on cable TV, you can't undo what has been done.
Be a man and own up to your responsabilities!
