Jon & Kate Agree To Counseling But Want It On TV

Jon and Kate Gosselin are seeing a marriage counselor, says The National Enquirer, and we can't say we blame them. How the couple managed to raise 8 children together without regular respites on a therapist's couch is beyond us. And plus, there's all those swirling rumors about Jon cheating on Kate with a 23-year-old and Kate getting cozy with her personal bodyguard. Heck, they should be seeing 3 marriage counselors by now.

The question as to whether or not TLC will foot the bill for said therapy remains unanswered but since the television network has already shelled out big bucks for their $1.12 million dollar home, their lavish vacations and Kate's oh-so-fashionable haircuts, it's likely that they will somehow supplement the therapy as well.

In fact, Kate is betting that by televising the couple's marriage meltdowns, her and her brood will bank more big money and big opportunity. "Kate wants a future in showbiz, and airing their counseling sessions will shoot the show's ratings through the roof," said an insider close to the couple. "Jon was all for counseling, but Kate thought their marriage might be too far gone." Until that is, she realized that the TLC cash cow was almost out of milk. 

TLC is a family network and airing the couple's dirty laundry could promote endless discussion among the millions of other couples struggling to stay faithful to their spouse. But so far, all of this Jon & Kate drama has only worked to bring down the credibility of a show about one big happy family. "It's make-or-break time for Jon and Kate, and counseling may be the only hope they have to repair their shattered marriage," said the same insider.
