Maybe my little April Fool’s prank wasn’t so far off after all — looks like Jon Gosselin of Jon & Kate Plus 8 fame has been caught by US Weekly photographers in the company of another woman leaving a local bar at 2 a.m. One witness told the gossip rag that Jon “could barely walk,” although he seems far from being incapacitated in the pic. You would think Jon might be more careful about being in such predicaments nowadays, since just a few months ago the internets was buzzing when Gosselin appeared in a photo with two young college girls.
But unlike that photo, which personally I think appears to be nothing more than fans seizing a photo op, this time Gosselin was photographed in his car with the woman, and he admits she is a “friend”. And, uh oh, Jon also doesn’t seem to be wearing his wedding band in the photo — but maybe he was just feeling bloated that day. And where was Kate while this was going on? On the other side of the country — unlike me, apparently Jon has no problem getting a babysitter until the wee hours of the morning. Gosselin had this to say in an email to US Magazine:
“I went to [the bar] Legends to speak to the owner,” Gosselin said. “A friend of mine wanted to check out my car, so I let her drive it to her car,” he says. “Yes, I have female friends — but that is all she is. I’m not going to end my friendships just because I’m on TV.”
Well, Jon, we have a feeling Kate may soon end your female friendships because you’re on TV. And “check out [his] car”? What hot ride is Jon cruising around in nowadays that would attract a young woman’s attention?
UPDATE 05/07/09: Kate appeared on the “Today” show this morning, and told Merideth Viera that she doesn’t believe anything was going on:
“I’m very hesitant to believe any of it. It goes with the territory,” Kate [said].
Kate said the matter would remain between her and her husband.
“We’re dealing with it privately,” she explained. “There are those things we keep to ourselves, and we’re working through it together.”
