The premiere episode of Jon & Kate Plus 8 had the reality television couple signing off from different couches, a series first and perhaps a foreshadowing of what's to come.

Anyone tuning in for Season 5 of the TLC hit show was already alerted to the fact that Jon and Kate Gosselin have both been under intense scrutiny and pressure from the media regarding allegations of infidelity. What came to light was the pressure also put on the relationship by one another.

Kate's constant traveling due to the success of her book, Eight Little Faces, has turned into resentment on Jon's part for being left home and out of the talent show, so to speak. "When asked how he would feel if roles were reversed and he were the one traveling, his resentment is clear," reports Newsday. "Slowly, I've seen him almost resent the duties [of being a parent]," Kate told the camera on Monday night. "I know it's a lot to take care of eight kids. I'm traveling a lot, he's frustrated a lot. I think he's angry at me. He doesn't really feel great about me." Read: Does Work Stress Affect Your Relationship?

Other startling revelations about the couple's future together were also revealed as Kate expressed her concern as to whether she and Jon would stay together much longer. "I am thinking this possibly could be our last family picture together," she said of a photo taken at the sextuplets' fifth birthday party. "I don't know . . . parents of multiples have, like, triple the divorce rate, and I was thinking we were gonna beat that. I don't know if I can say that anymore. Very swiftly, we turned into two different people, and that's just hard. I've tried for six months to figure out what the problem is, or remedy the problem. It's so complicated."

Among the complications are rumors of both Jon and Kate's alleged affairs. Although they both remain adamant that they have remained faithful to one another, it's clear that the stress of such rumors has chipped away at their marriage. "It's a lot," she admitted. "I would be lying if I sat here and said, 'Oh, I'm handing it great.' It's not fine."
