Jon Gosselin had harsh words about his ex-wife during a recent interview, ‘Everyone knows she's an a--hole. I don't have to — she's proven that!’
Jon Gosselin is not a fan of his ex-wife Kate Gosselin by any stretch of the imagination. In fact, he seems to downright despise her.
"Everyone thinks I'm out to get Kate. I don't give a f--k!" he told Philadelphia magazine. "What would I get out of it? Everyone knows she's an a--hole. I don't have to — she's proven that!"
The battling exes, who have eight children together, recently made headlines when she alleged he had stolen her computer's hard drive in order to hack into her email account, phone and bank accounts. Kate sued Jon claiming he'd given that information to former tabloid writer Robert Hoffman, who in turn used the details to publish a book, "Kate Gosselin: How She Fooled the World."

The Gosselin family. Says Jon Gosselin, ‘My brand was 'Jon & Kate Plus 8.' Now that I'm divorced? My new brand, because of the tabloids, is Jon Gosselin.’
Jon denied all of his ex-wife's claims and she eventually dropped the charges against him and Hoffman. According to the former reality TV dad, the lawsuit is just one of the many ways Kate tries to remain in the media since their show "Jon & Kate Plus 8" ended after their marriage fell apart in 2009.
"Kate wants to still be on television," he said. "She's now digging into the past, because that's what sells. Too late, honey. No one gives a f--k, really."
While Jon now enjoys a life as far away from the cameras as one could possibly go -- he lives in a secluded cabin in the woods of Stouchsburg, Penn., and works as a maître d' at the Black Dog Cafe -- he will ironically be the one to have another go round on reality TV.

Jon Gosselin, right, says, ‘In 2009, I was on 52 covers. Most-photographed person in 2009.’
With his girlfriend of two years, Liz Jannetta, along for the ride, they'll appear in season 4 of VH1's "Couples Therapy," which premieres on Jan. 2. In a strange twist, they'll share a house with Wu-Tang Clan rapper Ghostface Killah and Farrah Abraham.
Although he describes Kate as the one hungry for fame, Jon does comment about his rebranding over the years since their reality show came crashing down.
"The main thing the tabloids did was separate me from my brand," he said. "My brand was 'Jon & Kate Plus 8.' Now that I'm divorced? My new brand, because of the tabloids, is Jon Gosselin."
He added how, "In 2009, I was on 52 covers. Most-photographed person in 2009."
