Kate Gosselin on Troubled Kids: The Pressure is Getting to Them!

In the wake of two of her children getting expelled from school, Kate Gosselin went on record, discussing the situation personally for the first time with ET. Asked if Collin and Alexis Gosselin were in fact expelled, she said, “Two of my kids, no, are being tutored at home, with a teacher who is working closely with our kindergarten teachers in school, doing the identical curriculum.” So basically … they were kicked out. Kate says life in the spotlight is hard for the kids . The-recently divorced reality star says that, “All the pressure was getting to them,” explaining, “You have a lot of the divorce anger mixed in with that.” “The goal is to get them back into school as soon as possible,” she adds. But will their deep-rooted rage issues and bullying tendencies subside? Kate also discussed the rumor that her upcoming TLC show, Twist of Kate , had been canceled . Kate says that no, “We’re sort of still trying to shape it [into] what it needs, what is going to be fun. So no, it’s not canceled.” Fortunately for the kids, Thanksgiving came and went without incident. “We were able to work out the holiday time peacefully,” she said of splitting time with her ex-husband, Jon Gosselin. “So I had the first half, he had the second half, and, we just take it year by year, and holiday by holiday.” Kate and the kids appear on a Kate Plus Eight special Sunday on TLC. So it goes for the diva facing financial ruin …

Kate Gosselin Now Home-Schooling Troubled Kids

Jon and Kate Gosselin’s troubled kids Collin and Alexis are reportedly “doing a lot better” since their surprising, recent expulsion from private school . The six-year-olds were booted out of their Pennsylvania school and are currently being home-schooled by their famous (and controversial) mom. Kate was forced to take over after Collin and Alexis’ rage issues, including incidents of violence and bullying, continued to spiral out of control. BEFORE THE RAGE : Collin and Alexis is simpler times . The expulsion was a wake-up call for Kate, who is working to get their behavioral issues under control and providea more structured environment at home. “The two kids are doing a lot better. It seems like they are happier now that they are receiving more attention to meet their needs,” a source told Radar . “Both Collin and Alexis are happy they are enjoying spending more time with their mother and also with (their dog) Shoka now that he has returned.” Kate and Jon Gosselin are on the same page when it comes to Collin and Alexis’ structure for schoolwork and are directly addressing behavioral issues. Jon and Kate hope that the troubled pair can even return to the same school next year to rejoin their brothers and sisters if things keep improving. The kids’ issues sparked fresh criticism over whether living their lives on TLC TV shows is hurting their development and causing behavioral woes. Jon certainly believes it does, pleading with Kate to end it. TLC and Kate have no such intentions of pulling the plug. They’re putting their differences aside now, though: “Jon and Kate are working to share time with the kids at Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year’s.”

Kate Gosselin: Living Like a Diva, Facing Fiscal Ruin!

Kate Gosselin is spending money like it’s going out of style. The only problem? With eight children and the kind of lifestyle only the richest can afford, her reduced income can’t match her diva-like spending habits. This could explain the kids eating moldy sandwiches lately. THE WELL IS DRYING : Kate Gosselin’s still spending, though . Kate the child abuser made a small fortune from her TLC show and Dancing With the Stars , but insiders say much, if not most of it has evaporated. “Kate lives like she is a movie star,” a friend tells PopEater. “She flies first class, stays at expensive hotels. She once spent $7,000 on a haircut!” While Kate keeps living the diva life, all the lucrative deals she’s tried to put together to earn the cash to keep it up seem to have fallen through. “Kate was hoping to get paid to endorse a bunch of products,” the friend reports . “She thought she would earn millions advertising baby carriages.” “The poor thing even thought she would get a deal with Cover Girl after being on Dancing With The Stars , instead they went with Beyonce.” LOL, Kate. Delusional much? There’s no end in sight, either. With eight mouths to feed, not to mention the new expense of having a home tutor for two of the sextuplets – after Collin and Alexis Gosselin’s expulsion from private school – the bills keep piling up. “Kate is so worried about her finances that she’s even thinking about getting a real job,” an insider says. Hey, it’s not like she can count on Jon.

3 Lessons Bristol Palin Can Learn From Her Email Pen Pal Kate Gosselin

Congrats to Dancing with the Stars newcomer Bristol Palin and DWTS veteran Kate Gosselin, who’ve apparently struck up a mentor-protege relationship over email . Of course. Can’t you picture Bristol cutely misspelling words and discussing how uncomfortable she gets when her dad brings her friends on the Skidoo, like she’s in a backwoods version of Beverly Cleary’s Dear Mr. Henshaw ? At any rate, Palin will begin her stint on DWTS next week, and if you recall, Kate Gosselin once appeared on the same program. If Gosselin’s going to matriculate young Palin, we hope she imparts the following pearls of pseudo-wisdom.

Kate Plus Back to School Shopping for 8

Filed under: Kate Gosselin , Jon & Kate , Paparazzi Photo Kate Gosselin rounded up her eight offspring to take them back to school shopping at a department store in Pennsylvania today.

Kate Plus 8 … and 6 Child Labor Violations?

If one Pennsylvania state lawmaker gets his way, Kate Gosselin’s reality TV run could come to an abrupt end. Or her show could be retitled Kate Plus 2. Rep. Thomas Murt argues that state law permits children under age seven to work in movies, but not on TV – spelling trouble for the Gosselin brood. Jon and Kate Gosselin’s sextuplets Aaden, Alexis, Collin, Hannah, Joel and Leah just turned six in May. Murt argues they are thus ineligible for filming. On Tuesday, the official sent a series of letters to the state attorney general and labor secretary which questioned the legality of the work permits. This guy either has too much time on his hands, or he really hates Kate Plus 8 … or he’s getting large campaign contributions from Jon Gosselin . A HAPPY, EXPLOITED FAMILY : Is Kate Gosselin breaking the law? State labor officials previously said TLC producers should have obtained work permits for the original Jon & Kate Plus 8 , though no penalties were imposed. Twins Cara and Mady, who are nine, would still be allowed to continue filming. Although that would be like most other families and slightly less interesting. Kate has said in the past that the children love filming, though the legitimacy of that statement is highly questionable. Still, it’s unclear if laws were broken. If an investigation finds Kate in violation of state labor regulations, the plug could be pulled once again on the popular show, which just returned in June. Somewhere, Jon is cackling with joy.

Celebrity Hair Nightmares: Cassie vs. Kate Gosselin

Like Kate Gosselin, Cassie is no stranger to bad hair days/years. Those Cassie shaved head pics from last year might actually be preferable to channeling Kate, though. There are some celebs you just don’t need to emulate. Just the same, the R&B singer turned back the clock to 2009 and rocked a Kate Gosselin bi-level reverse mullet dead porcupine weave to an event in N.Y. City. Come on. Even Kate doesn’t wear her hair like Kate anymore. But if you had to choose, who would you say brings out the best in this dreadful disaster of a haircut, the inventor of which should be ashamed? Vote below: Who wore this “hairstyle” better?
