Jon Gosselin Being Sued, But Not By Kate
As if having eight kids, divorce proceedings, and constant media criticism were not enough, Jon Gosselin now has a lawsuit to deal with.
On Friday morning in Maryland, TLC network filed a lawsuit against Gosselin for failing to abide by various contract rules. He is being sued for his continuous commentary on information concerning TLC's "Jon and Kate Plus 8" and for his acceptance of money to appear on other shows.
But that's not all.
Jon may also have to face Kate in a legal battle other than one in divorce court. Ex-nanny Stephanie Santoro told
"Kate Gosselin has heard the allegations made by Stephanie Santoro that Jon Gosselin hacked' into her e-mails, phone, and online accounts, and she is profoundly disturbed by them," the statement reads. "Under the circumstances, Ms. Gosselin is carefully considering all of her legal options regarding this matter and she will pursue them if and when the time is right."
Jon's lawyer, Mark Heller, was ready to fire back.
"I spoke with him today concerning this statement made by Stephanie and he unequivocally told me that he's never illegally invaded Kate's electronic privacy in any way," Heller informed People.com.
"He also finds it a little disappointing that Kate would give credence to an uncorroborated statement made by an individual who clearly has motivation to tell stories about Jon that might result in financial [compensation]."
Amid all the he-said, she-said back and forth, one thing remains sure. These two will be providing drama for the public for some time to come.
