Jon and Kate

i just have to vent- i have been a fan of jon and kate from the beginning. on last night's episode it was revealed that they would be divorcing. it is so sad. i know there have been many accusations from the media etc. but i am sad that all they have been through, 8 children will now have divorced parents. kate has always been a little neurotic and demanding but jon has changed . in earlier interviews he had t-shirts with scriptures on them, references to God and they seemed to be a team. they now do interviews seperately. jon has a shattered skull t-shirt on and 2 diamond earrings. i guess he feels he has been controlled for a long time and it is time to make himself happy at 32 yrs. old. i think it is selfish. you made a choice to be married and can at least work on it, did they go to counseling, did he communicate to kate that he was feeling beaten down and controlled, i don't know but i doubt it. i know that there are situations where divorce is necessary but i do feel that marriage is sacred and has to be given the highest priority to work, whatever has to be done. i know that TLC has halted production of the show. for me i think i am done watching. i do think in a way the show, money, the media etc. has changed them and in essence ruined their marriage and family but that is a choice they have made for themselves in doing the show. i would end the show and work on my family but that's just me and my old fashioned, american, christian values speaking!
