Kate Gosselin will be among the cast of this season’s Dancing With The Stars, according to Radar Online (the line-up announcement is scheduled for after The Bachelor finale tonight). The original Octomom will reportedly be allowed to practice from Pennsylvania, so that no one thinks she’s abandoned her children for fame. “Kate’s the kind of woman who will do whatever is necessary for her children,” said a source. “It’s great for her to be on the show, but she did it ONLY in a way that benefits her family.” Hey, it’s not like daddy’s bringing home the bacon!

In fact, news of Kate’s venture to prime-time network TV must be bitterly ironic for ex-husband Jon, who was sued by TLC for seeking reality television employment outside their contract last year. Though the legal tussle has since been settled, JoGo is not expected to be returning to the idiot box anytime soon. It’s a shame, really—we’d love to see him tango, too.
