Jon & Kate Plus 8 star Kate Gosselin appeared on the Today Show on Monday – still wearing her wedding ring. In the first TV interview since announcing her impending divorce from husband Jon Gosselin, Kate Gosselin told Meredith Viera she was “shocked” by her estranged husband’s behavior.
Questioned by Meredith Viera about her feelings regarding Jon Gosselin’s alleged girlfriends, Kate Gosselin said, “I was shocked… It is hurtful. It’s very hurtful. To be very honest, the most hurtful part is when his decisions directly affect our children.” Since seperating from Kate Gosselin, Jon Gosselin has been romantically linked to friend Hailey Glassman, Star reporter Kate Major and even one of his eight children’s babysitters, Stephanie Santoro.
In the Today Show interview, Kate Gosselin admitted she still wears her wedding ring, but said it is because she does not want to upset her children by taking it off too soon. Fighting tears throughout the interview, Kate Gosselin denied she was the one responsible for the initial breakup of her marriage, denying statements from Jon Gosselin saying otherwise. When asked if she still loves her soon-to-be ex, Kate Gosselin said simply, “When I think back to the Jon that I knew, yes, suffice it to say.”
