Starting in September, for the first time since 2007, you won't be able to watch the Gosselins on television. Earlier this week, TLC announced that the long-running show "Kate Plus 8" (formerly "Jon and Kate Plus 8") is heading off to that great playground in the sky. The final episode will air September 12.

Jon Gosselin, who is the father of Kate's eight children and was once a co-star on the show, was told about the program's cancellation at a recent press conference. He told entertainment site Radar Online that he was "very relieved" that his kids can finally have normal lives. "Contracts have to end at some point. I think everything had run its course, and it was time to come to an end anyways."

He also voiced hope that his ex-wife and the children would get more opportunities to spend time together now that the show is over. Of his kids in particular, he said, "I hope they can have more private family moments. I hope that this will bring more privacy to my children and that they can get the proper attention they need for any personal issues they might have in the future."...More

Spencer Pratt and Heidi Montag Are Sad, Broke, Regretful

"The second we continued on our quest for fame was a mistake.”

There was a time -- not too long ago -- when nary a day went by without some sort of staged Spencer Pratt and Heidi Montag photo set. You could watch their orchestrated antics regularly on MTV. More often than not, their pictures appeared somewhere on the cover of Us Weekly.

But that was then. In a new interview with The Daily Beast, Speidi -- who have been out of the limelight for some time now -- reveals that they're broke, have many regrets, and don't really know what's next. It's a rather depressing read, actually.

Here's what we learned.

They never actually broke up. (We basically already knew this, but now it's "official.") When asked if they'd ever split, this is how the two responded: "Spencer: 'No.' Heidi: 'No.' Spencer: 'Not for one minute.' Heidi: 'We've never even been apart.'"

They have no money. "We never had any!" Spencer told the Beast. They said they spent about $2 million on Heidi's failed music career. Additionally, they bought a whole lot of stuff they didn't need. "I probably spent a million dollars on suits and fancy clothes," Spencer said. "My whole million-dollar wardrobe -- I would never wear that again. They're props. Everything we were doing, we were buying props. I bought a big blue monster truck just to drive it on 'The Hills' for an episode. Never drove it again"...More
