In June 2009, Kate and Jon announced that they were separating in an episode on cable network TLC.
After the announcement, in separate interviews, Kate and Jon stated that the show would continue; however, TLC doubted if the show was still viable due to their separation.
The divorce was finalized on 18th December 2009, and Kate was granted the ownership of the family home and primary custody of the eight children.
