Kate Gosselin is about to enter the world of unemployment, and the reality star admits “it gets really scary” when she thinks about not having a job.
The mother of eight’s popular show, Kate Plus 8, has been canceled by TLC, and for the first time since 2005 the trials and tribulations of her sextuplets and their older twin sisters will not be on television.
Kate, who was a nurse before becoming a household name because of her funny kids, wacky hair and eventual divorce, said she could go back to that profession, but it would be hard.

“The scary reality is, 12-hour nursing shifts every day wouldn’t let me continue to provide well for eight kids, essentially on my own. When you think about it that way, it gets really scary,” Kate told People magazine.
She said that one thing the family is going to miss will be the luxurious vacations the network paid for the family to go on. They’ll still go on trips, but “not like the ones they’re used to, but as many as we can handle and afford.”

Since her very public divorce from Jon Gosselin, Kate said she is lonely. “I am not happy being alone at this point, but I’m happier being alone than I am being with someone who makes me unhappy.”
However, this probably isn’t the last we’ll hear from Kate Gosselin. “I want to stay in TV because I feel comfortable there; it’s an exciting life.”

Meantime, Kate’s making the most of her last days as a highly paid reality star. Gosselin was spotted out and about in a shiny, new sports car on Tuesday— an Audi TT.
Always the frugal one though, Kate claimed the car isn’t new, but used and that she got a “great deal” on it. The hard working single mom also shared that she purchased the car before hearing her show had been canceled.

Kate Plus 8’s final episode will air September 13 on TLC at 9/8c.

I am so very sure that she will conveniently "forget" to renew that nursing license. Could anyone imagine Khate working a normal job, having to answer to a boss, arrive at a certain hour, perhaps even take orders! Doubt it!

I almost want to say she has mental issues, I don't know though. She might just be a very selfish & mean spirited person. Her actions & her words speak volumes about how she truely is as a human being-just horrible!

Do I think Kate will downsize & put the kids needs not her wants first, I doubt it-but until she does put their needs first she will continue chasing easy money & fame & the kids will not have a mom like they should, like they need.

What ever the case may be the children will be fine. If Kate has 2 downsize then so be it. Maybe she can give them her instead of material things they don't NEED.They need her more & Jon too IMO is the bottom line.

I do wonder if Jon had the child support reduced, there is no way he could make those at $20K or more per month working a regular job. I hope he did bc I really think Kate moved knowing she would divorce him.

Supposedly the nursing license expires 11/11/11 is she doesn't take a bunch of classes. We know she's almost illiterate and doesn't like to read even a newspaper.

Instead of being a control freak Kate, you should be more lenient. I believe that the viewers did not enjoy seeing your attitude and you should be making changes in your behavior. I wish you and your kids the best.
