The feud between Jon and Kate Gosselin has truly remarkable staying power. Just when you think they're out of the news for good, they ramp it back up.
Unlike the Tori Spellings and Kendra Wilkinsons of the world, there's no scripting this nonsense: Jon and Kate full-on H8 each other with a vengeance.
Earlier, we reported that Jon is not allowed to see the kids and gunning for Kate in court. Now a new report suggests he's after something besides custody:
A cut of Kate Gosselin's paycheck for the new season of TLC's Kate Plus 8!
Although Jon isn't on the show, and reportedly signed away control of his kids' TV future in exchanged for reduced child support obligations, he wants to cash in.
"Jon's trying to get a percentage of Kate's TLC salary for the new Kate Plus 8 episodes," the insider said. "He has no stable job, no steady income."
"Now he's trying to tell Kate that if she doesn't give him a cut of the money, he will claim the kids hate filming and they are being forced to do it."
Kate's calling that bluff, however. We have no doubt Jon is livid about their return to TV, but legally, he has no leg to stand on and she knows it.
"He's all bark and no bite," the source said. "Kate has absolutely no intentions whatsoever of giving him any money. He doesn't have any right to it anyway!"
"He's waived all his rights as a parent by forgoing all child support payments," the source said. "Also, he isn't going to court to fight for custody of the kids."
"He just uses that tactic to victimize himself so that the public feels bad for him."
Jon's also banned from her home, apparently, so he's got a lot to feel sorry for himself about. Oh, and Steve Neild and Kate Gosselin may be dating.
Guess when it rains, it pours for Jon the beleaguered Pennsylvania waiter. See Jon, Kate and other couples who crumbled in front of the cameras below:
Dean McDermott cheated on Tori Spelling with Emily Goodhand. The couple then talked with a therapist about it for episode of True Tori.
