What’s a man to do when it seems the whole world is against him, including his own girlfriend? Well if you’re Jon Gosselin, you begin consulting with a Rabbi in an attempt to reconnect with your “deeper, more spiritual, more altruistic self.”
The 32-year-old Jon & Kate Plus 8 dad released a statement addressing some of his recent behaviors. “I am well aware that my behavior over the past few months has not always reflected my personal and religious values. I further accept that I have allowed myself to become somewhat severed from my own moral anchor and be carried away by the challenges of fame.”
This statements comes right after his girlfriend, 22 year old Hailey Glassman, revealed in a nationally televised interview that Jon is emotionally abusive to her.
Jon continues, “It is for this reason that I have endeavored of late to reconnect with my deeper, more spiritual, more altruistic self with regular study sessions and counseling with Rabbi Shmuley Boteach, whose morality-centered-and-values-based advice, coupled with his profound commitment to fatherhood and family, I deeply respect.”
He finishes his statement by trying to appeal to the public. “I wish for the public to know my regret at having, at times, betrayed the moral principles that have always guided me. I am committed to making things right with Kate and especially my children. I ask you to please give me the opportunity to prove myself.”
