Kate Gosselins nanny leaves & Kate has a meltdown on 2nd to last Kate Plus 8
I guess there’s a spoiler in the title, but since I have no respect whatsoever for Kate Plus 8 I’ll let it slide. The final episodes of Kate Plus 8 are airing on TLC now, with the series to wrap up forever next week. It’s been cancelled, and Kate will surely hustle and try to scrunch up her sour face into a semblance of a smile to squeeze whatever cash she can out of the public. There’s not much good will left for her now, and she’s pissing away the few fans she has left with her nasty behavior on the show. On the second to last episode, which aired last night, Kate bitched out her best friend and also the nanny for eating some pizza she had saved for the bodyguard Steve, who is rumored to be sleeping with her when he can stand her. The nanny got so fed up she left the road trip that the family was on. It’s unclear to me whether she quit or not, but I’m assuming so. ABC has a clip of Kate freaking out, that’s above, and below is a promo for the show in which we see the nanny Ashley crying and packing up. Here’s a recap:
The drama of the Gosselin family RV trip doesn’t stop until the end of the episode. When the new RV won’t start, Kate accuses the Kate Plus 8 crew of rigging the RVs. Of course, that isn’t the case. It is just some bad luck for Kate and her caravan.
When it is discovered that one of the kids is eating pizza, Kate blows up. She says there were only four slices of pizza left from the night before and those were earmarked for the adults. When the two ladies from the Party Bus note that they don’t want the pizza, she tells them that the pizza should go to Steve, who doesn’t eat mac-n-cheese or salad. She claims that the kid eating the pizza ruined lunch for everyone and now Steve doesn’t have anything to eat.
She tells the women in the bus to get Steve a piece of the remaining slices of pizza. Mady grabs the pizza and hands it to Steve. Kate promptly starts in again about how it is ‘disgusting’ for Mady to grab the pizza and that one of the adults should have wrapped it in foil instead of letting Mady grab it with her ‘dirty’ hands. This upsets Ashley, who has a breakdown. Frankly, it is surprising that she has lasted this long without a serious breakdown considering the way Kate has treated her and Jamie like children the entire trip.
Ashley remarks that everyone has enough food to eat because the two refrigerators are so stuffed that it is difficult to close them. Seriously? Like Kate couldn’t just run in at a store or a fast food restaurant to grab food for the people with her on the trip.
The whole incident was just the icing on the cake for poor Ashley. She notes that she has worked for Kate for five years and that this is the worst it has ever been. The Kate Plus 8 staff members send Ashley home. She has a sad goodbye scene with the kids. She reminds them that she loves them all and that she will see them again. It was a touching scene, and hopefully when Kate sees it, she will realize what a gem she had in Ashley. For the kids’ sake, Kate should apologize to Ashley and hope that Ashley will come back.
On her Twitter page, Kate tweets that she didn’t know Ashley was leaving. She says she was in her RV doing an interview. That is probably one of the smartest things the producers of Kate Plus 8 have ever done. Can you imagine the dramatic scene that would have unfolded if Kate had been there? It probably would have been much worse than any ever seen on this show.
The end of the episode finds the kids somewhat happy and the adults happy that the two-week trip is done.

Does this mean that vile Kate is going to have to downsize her lifestyle now that her show is no longer going to be on the air? Also, I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: If this is how she is when the cameras are rolling, consider what a nasty mean bitch she must be when she’s not being filmed. It’s exploitative for her kids to live with cameras like that, but consider the alternative for them. Her kids have got to be living in total fear.
Remember the several month period in 2009 when everyone thought that Jon Gosselin was the party at fault since he was publicly running around with all those coeds? Kate’s bitchiness trumps his douche factor several fold.
