In Jon Gosselin latest news, the ex star of "Jon & Kate Plus 8" lands a job in the technology field, back in the area where he used to work, as reported at E Online. It's a life that has brought him full circle from his days as an Ed Hardy wearing guy with a diamond stud in his ear and a girlfriend on his arm.

Kate Gosselin is still in the spotlight

While Kate Gosselin continues to be in the news, recently interviewed by Meredith Vieira on "Today" and still on TV with "Kate Plus 8," a series that was rumored to be canceled, but has not; Jon is slowly fading out for good.

Obviously, the kids are a part of "Kate Plus 8" and Jon claims he's none too happy about that. In Jon Gosselin latest news, he rants about it on Twitter, "As you may or may not be aware, I have been working for some time to remove my children from television. I do not believe being on TV is beneficial to any of them. They are no longer toddlers that are oblivious to what is going on around them. They are now six and ten, in school and desperately in need of a normal life."

The rumor was that 6-year-old Collin and Alexis were expelled from school. Kate, who says she has forgiven Jon "for the sake of the kids," denied the rumor to Meredith Vieira, although she did admit that they were experiencing behavior problems, due to the divorce and difficult academics, and were removed from school. They are being taught by a tutor and attending counseling, and Kate claims they're fine now.

14 minutes and 59 seconds left?

Jon's quest to remove his kids from TV land sounds admirable on its face, but many know the history of Jon Gosselin. Does he rant about Kate and about her and the kids being on TV because he cares about the kids' welfare, or is it the rant of a jealous man who is no longer hot?

In Jon Gosselin latest news, you don't see Jon Gosselin the same way you did. For example, you don't see him modeling Ed Hardy much these days. Said the founder of Ed Hardy, Christian Audigier, "He is not the same as he was. He has a more complicated life now. He has all of those kids and a girlfriend and ex-wife."

Brands go for people who are star power and Jon Gosselin no longer has it. He's dating Ellen Ross and living a regular life.

    Great update! Kate and the children are gonna be fine-Kate has matured into a lovely young woman. I just wish TLC would not pull anymore Palin type fiascos! Kate deserves better from them--they owe her an apology-Sarah too!

    I agree with Me, That woman was soooo mean to Jon and now we are supposed to feel sorry for her and HATE him? Don't think so. You can't expect to have a long marriege abusing your spouse!

    For all of you Jon bashers, do ya'll remember how bad that crazy woman he was married to talked to him on every show?! I am a woman on Jon's side. Yes he acted like a Puttz! But lets look at Kate. She is beginning to look like every other starlett in Hollywood. The draw of the original show was how ordinary the family WAS! I haven't watched the Kate Plus 8 at all. I hope they get canned for the kids sake.

    i wish I could feel sorry for Jon but he was afforded the once in a life time blessing. Greed, jealousy, hatred got him in the position he is in today. How many people have you ever had to watch in real life go from rags to riches back to rags again. What a saga?
