Jon & Kate Plus 8, Minus Ring, Equals Rumors

Reality star Jon Gosselin took a break from his eight kids and wife Kate—and wearing that pesky wedding band—at a nightclub two weeks ago, Us reports. The Jon & Kate Plus 8 dad, who took flak for palling around with coeds at a February party, “could barely walk” as he left the Pennsylvania club at 2am with an unknown woman he called “babe,” a source says.

“I went to Legends to speak to the owner,” Jon explained in an email to Us. “A friend of mine wanted to check out my car, so I let her drive it to her car. Yes, I have female friends—but that is all she is. I’m not going to end my friendships just because I’m on TV.” (More reality TV stories.)
