Jon and Kate Plus 8

[Kate82]

I somehow came across this American TV programme called Jon and Kate Plus 8.
Jon and Kate Gosselin are parents to 8 children! Yes - 8.
But, it's not as crazy at it sounds.

They have 8 year old fraternal twin girls Cara and Madelyn "Mady" along with 4 year old sextuplets; Alexis, Hannah, Aaden, Collin, Leah and Joel!

I've watched a couple of small clips of their show online and it looks great. It's shown on the American TV channel TLC and as far as I'm aware, we don't have that here in England but if I'm wrong please correct me.

How they manage with eight children is beyond me - I can just about cope with DD Lauren!

i watch it but must be the old series as the twins are 6 and the others 2 they are such a great family
its shown over here on discovery home and health on sky channel 254
its shown all the time
xx

 

[Jade&Evie]

They show it on discovery home and health I think- I used to watch it along with all the other baby programs in the morning before Evie was born Now I watch CBeebies

 

[Kate82]

I will have to check out channel 254!
We've only recently got Sky so neither me nor DH have figured out all the channels yet but I'm sure that 254 will be on 24/7!

Of course, DD Lauren will have something to say about that I'm sure - she can't miss CBeebies!

Ive watched it on discovery but she is one serious ballbreaker. Im terrified of her.

 

[Kate82]

Haha, she is a little mean at times but you've got to be cruel to be kind.

I'm sure if we had 8 children we wouldn't be the kindest of people!

 

[lauramumof2]

I know but the way she talks to her husband, I just wouldnt talk to Stuart like that never mind on telly

I saw it today on channel 254, when they all went to disneyland! 8 Kids all on a lead bless them, what a whirlwind life!

 

[mummykay]

8???? no thanks lol

 

[lisa-marie]

I have watched it when I havent been able to sleep this last week on virgin 275 - I dont think I will be having 8 children!

 

[Melly+2]

this programme makes me not wana have any sort of sexual relations with Gal ever again

 

[Kate82]

I searched them on the internet and I came across another family called the Hayes.
They've got one up on the Gosselins -

Twins, Twins and Sextuplets!

10 kids? That's about 9 too many for my liking!
They also have a show on TLC, I'll check if it's shown over here.

My Uncle & Aunt have 8 children.

Oldest is 13 and the youngest is 1....7 boys - 1 girl!

You would never think she has eight kids though she is about 5ft and a size 6!

They are the lovleyest people you will ever meet! - Live in a little 4 bed house thats been extended to give the more room, my uncle is a mechanic and aunt is house wife/home mummy.

If my Aunt was aloud she would have more but cant now for health reasons!

Haha, yeah!
My sister is called Kelly and as children whenever we received post we never really knew who it was for!

 

[ClaireJ]

I watch Jon and Kate Plus 8 all the time.
I love the kids although I think I'll just stick to my 2!

The Duggars (I think) with the 18 children is just ridiculous, in my opinion anyway.
