Jon & Kate Gosselin

Judge Arthur Tilson has made Kate Gosselin‘s divorce from her husband Jon final by signing the “Papers” (in our best Usher singing voice) for the embattled reality couple. The stars of TLC’s hit show “Jon & Kate Plus 8″ 10 year marriage has come to a complete halt following a very public separation after Kate found Jon creeping around with someone twice his junior.

“I am very relieved that our divorce has been finalized, and I look forward to the New Year, focusing on the children,” Kate said in a statement sent to People. “This has been a challenging transition for all of us, but I am confident that we will move ahead with the important task os restructuring our lives.”

The last segment of their separation was to divide property even. Once that issue was resolved Judge Tilson signed the documents. According to the written document, Kate gets full custody of the 8 children and will reside in their former home. Both agreed that Kate would hold primary custody and Jon would have visitation rights. Neither party will receive spousal support, which might turn into a problem with Jon since Kate will have her own show on TLC that will provide her with a more than decent paycheck.

Jon will also have to give monthly spousal support to the tune of 5 figures, and since he doesn’t have anything planned with TLC and is unable to venture to other networks due to his contractual obligations, he might not even be able pay, according to TMZ.

    Kate got everything she wanted, Jon (from his former girlfriend), her Asian featured kids (from Jon and her infertility treatments gave her the quantity she was after), her television show (to promote her access to $$$$, ummmm for the sake of her children), rid of her pesky family (people liked some of them too much, so the kids had to get tired of visiting them), rid of helpers and friends (who gave too much to her but NOT enough to satisfy her greed), her BF, whoopsie, I mean BG (BIG Freudian TYPO there) to travel all over the country with her and protect her from all the evil people at the likes of Target, etc., even though he IS married to her best friend, inFAMEy and FORTUNE (some warranted, some NOT SO MUCH), and FINALLY, RID of Jon (who was just a pawn in her parade to publicness). Well, what goes around comes around, Karma, FATE, whatever, important people are finally picking up on what the viewers have gotten for over a year, Kate is unrelatable, unprofessional, uncool, uncaring, unimpressive, untalented, and every other ‘un’ word, including ‘uncapable’ , the word she made up on their trip to FL. So let’s just ‘un’leash her from the television cameras and send her back to her kids (I know, that’s not so much ‘for their sake’, it’s just that she did everything medically possible to get them and we feel she is responsible for taking care of them and thank goodness, some judge felt the same way.
