Will Jon Gosselin's gal pal Deanna Hummel appear on 'Jon & Kate Plus 8?'
Jon Gosselin's girlfriend may appear on the show?
Now there's a TLC ratings killer if ever we've heard one.
The Gosselins' divorce announcement Monday night was watched by a record 10.6 million viewers. How to top this? The New York Daily News is reporting that the next must-see TV will be when the show – on hiatus until Aug. 3 – begins to include Deanna Hummel, Jon's current squeeze, on camera.
Will they call the show "Jon & Kate & Deanna Plus 8?"
"Deanna's role isn't expected to be big, but because she's part of Jon's life, she'll be filmed," says the Daily News' insider. The source added that the show will focus on how Jon and Kate are raising their kids separately.
The kids will not have to go back and forth. The parents will do shifts in the house caring for the kids. Toss in a young girlfriend and these kids are gonna be one confused mess. For one thing, they will be able to look back at their childhood by reviewing tabloids, not family photos.
So far, a TLC spokesman has only responded. "We have no specific plans for future episodes."
What do you think? If this is true, is it the worst -- and sickest -- idea ever?
Would you watch a show with Jon's 23-year-old girlfriend on it?

What's "sick" is that you, and other "media" like you print crap like this in the first place. If you actually printed NEWS instead of making it up, or speculating, there would be far less garbage for the children toread, now or someday. Lay off.
Why can't he have his new girlfriend on the show? Kate's boyfriend/bodyguard has been on the show and TLC pays for him?
I read online accounts in which Kate claims that she feels liked she "failed."
Jon and Kate are both failures.
They put their own selfish interests for money and fame over the welfare of their children.
They are prime examples of what is wrong with our narcissistic society.
I pity the children.
This guy is a total loser, sacrificing not only himself but his family for what? He has(had) a beutiful family but being the selfish human being that he is, I guess he can't help it. Most likely it's in the genes with his parent's fallout. Just my guess.
Disgusting. I will never ever watch Jon and Kate if he has that skank bag on there. What a horrible ide and a ratings grab.
I will never, ever watch the show again TLC. This is awful and I wasn't always championing cancelling the show, but if that skank is going to be a part of it, forget it-never ever would I want to see a woman Jon cheated on his wife with. Selfish jerk. Hate him.
Sylvia,9:58 A.M. I agree wih you whole heartidly I could not have worded it better...and to miss Deanna Hummel no one even in this liberal day and age thinks much of a woman who is so completely self centered and motivated to enter a relationship with a very obviously married man who has 8 very young children. A double shame on you a 3rd grade teacher you have devastated a family with the very same age children you have chosen to teach. Your a sick young child. I hope any educational system thinks twice before exposing you to their children.
This is disgusting. It's bad enough these kids are living through a public divorce of their parents, but do you have to add the home wrecker girlfriend into the mix?!
If Kate pitched a fit about family appearing on the show for money, I wonder what tantrum and bru-ha-ha will be raised over this and another woman pretending to be mom to the children.
Very bad choice and taste here if you ask me.
This situation is beyond sad. There's no way most of us want to see the "other woman" and Jon kids himself if he thinks he can just start over. Perhaps he wasn't a math major, but eight children need his attention and love. That's eight children! Moving to NYC? How is that going to work when they need their dad? They need their dad, even if he is a buffoon. He's their buffoon. I wrote a blog entry called Jon and Kate, please renegotiate. Here's hoping for a major wake up call for Jon.
Divorce, It's the New Marriage.
Jon is a very self-centered person,who only thinks about himself.he is getting what he deserves,Nothing!leaving his beautiful family for garbage.it makes me furious that everyone put all the blame on Kate.but now that the truth has come out everyone can see who the cheater is!I wish nothing but the best for Kate and her family.She is a strong woman and she will survive. She's better off without someone so selfish.
