'Kate Plus 8': Jon apologizes for blonde-bedding, then says Kate made him do it

Jon Gosselin, who just lost top billing in "Kate Plus 8," tells In Touch magazine that he regrets his conduct since splitting with wife Kate — “I used poor judgment in publicly socializing with other women so soon” — and wants to delay the divorce proceedings so he and Kate can “restore our relationship as cooperative parents and to open up our lines of communication. I hope that she will be as receptive and enthusiastic as I am to do what is best for our family.”

She would probably be more receptive had he left out this last bit: He claims that Kate practically forced him into chasingby refusing to go into counseling with her when she told him she wanted a divorce. “I think I was reacting to the pain I have been suffering as a result of Kate’s rejection of me.”

Nice.

As the target of Kate’s sarcasm and put-downs -- he was basically a poster boy for PTSD -- Jon garnered a lot of sympathy as his marriage broke down on camera, but he rapidly squandered the public goodwill after their by squiring a series of blondes across two continents.
