REPORT Jon Gosselin Waiting Tables At Pennsylvania Pub, Says He’s “Volunteering”?
September 12, 2013 by Hollywoodite
It’s been a few years since Jon Gosselin was on reality television as Jon & Kate Plus 8.
In that time, he’s divorced Kate and become something of a “weekend dad” to kids Kate accused him of giving a “mediocre life” because he’s been working 9-5 jobs to get by ever since. She had landed her own reality show, Kate Plus 8. But that fizzled out, leaving her basically jobless too.
According to recent reports, after proving difficult to work with at her shill voucher website job, she’s just set up her own mommy blog doing the same thing. She admits in PEOPLE, though, she’s made “mistakes” and has been difficult in the past which is why it’s been so hard to provide. For example, she recently had to fire the security she was also dating… because she could no longer afford him.
Jon is in a similar situation. After years of fame, notoriety, and enjoying the things that come along with that, he is reportedly working as a waiter right now to make ends meet.
Jon Gosselin has fallen a long way from the days of Hamptons polo matches and free Ed Hardy swag.
The one-time TLC star has taken a job waiting and bussing tables at Emily’s pub in Beckersville, Pa., leading one source close to the father-of-eight to declare, “Jon has really hit rock bottom.
“Just a few years ago, he was jetting off to France to hobnob in St. Tropez, sipping champagne on a yacht,” a source told the National ENQUIRER of the former reality star. “Now he’s waiting tables at a pub!
“Working the weekday lunch shift, he can’t possibly be taking home more than $40 or $50.”
When an ENQUIRER reporter asked Jon, who divorced his wife Kate Gosselin in 2009, what he was doing there, he said was there to volunteer, and left it at that.
Jon, who programmed computers when TLC initially aired the show that made him famous, Jon & Kate Plus 8, is currently living off the grid, in a cabin sources say he’s “struggling to pay the rent on.” – via RadarOnline.
