On the heels of Jon Gosselin having an “epiphany” and yanking his eight little ones out of their hit reality show and ending its run in November, TLC is suing Jon for breach of contract. The lawsuit says that, in recognition of “the Gosselins’ difficult personal circumstances, TLC asked both parents to refrain from making public statements about each other, the divorce, or the program, and negotiated an agreed “cooling off” period with respect to media communications for 45 days.” TLC claims Jon violated that agreement by appearing on other shows for pay and making unauthorized disclosures about the show.
Jon’s attorney, Mark Jay Heller, says, of course, the lawsuit is all wrong. “This litigation is clearly a tactic that Discovery and TLC have initiated in furtherance of their hunger to jump back on the gravy train, but Jon Gosselin has decided to put the breaks on the Discovery and TLC trainwreck,” he said. Jon’s not looking so good these days since he was ordered to put back $180,000 into his and Kate Gosselin’s joint bank account, after allegedly pulling it out. Let’s see how this one plays out!
