No More Kate Plus 8 – Kate Gosselin’s Reality Show Gets Canceled
Say goodbye to “Kate Plus 8.”
TLC announced today that they have officially canceled Kate Gosselin’s reality show, which showed the challenges she faced while raising eight children – twin daughters and sextuplets – as a single parent.
The network “has decided not to renew another season of Kate Plus 8,” said a spokesperson. “TLC hopes to check in with Kate and the family periodically with specials in the future.”
The news might have come as a surprise to the show’s star. Just last week, Gosselin went on the Today show and shot down rumors that “Kate Plus 8,” would be cancelled – saying, “nobody has told me. We’re happy to continue on and will do so as long as people are watching.”
The show was a spin-off from the wildly popular original series, “Jon & Kate Plus 8,” which showed the young parents – Jon and Kate Gosselin – during their first few years as the parents of multiples. Following the Gosselin’s widely-publicized and messy divorce in 2009, the title was changed to it’s current form.
The 150th and final episode of “Kate Plus 8” will air on Sept. 12th.
