Jon Gosselin of “Jon & Kate Plus 8” is hunting for a new apartment in New York City, Access Hollywood has confirmed.
According to Gawker, who first reported the news, the reality star dad was recently spotted at Trump Place in the hallway of the building with a realtor on the eighth floor.
Finances must not be an issue for the father of eight, as rent for the available one bedrooms on that floor start at $3,600 per month, while a currently available studio is listed for sale at $639,000.
The couple reportedly makes up to $75,000 per episode of their hit TLC show.
The reality star would be in store for a much different life if he decides to relocate from his Berks County, Pa., home to the Big Apple. His new Upper West Side 21-story building includes a health club, pool, sauna, nursery and a view of the Hudson River.
In more “Jon & Kate” news, the embattled reality couple takes turns addressing their relationship in individual confessional interviews in a new promo for their series.
“We haven’t really known where we were going, but we’ve been dealing with this for a long time,” a visibly emotional Kate tells the camera. “(It’s) a slow progression that has not popped up one day. It’s not been like a secret … We’ve been dealing with this for a long time.”
Jon seemed to echo his wife’s troubling sentiments, noting the strain on the couple’s relationship was not brand new.
“It just got worse and worse and worse,” he said to the camera. “With all the tabloids and all that, it just made it even worse.”
Tabloid reports have suggested Jon has been cheating on his wife. And while Jon did not address those claims directly in the new promo, he does admit he is not the same man he used to be.
“People think I’ve changed and I have changed. But I’m now the person I know I am,” Jon said.

This is so sad. I can't imagine trying to raise that many kids and keep your marriage going while being on a Reality TV Show.
I can't help but wonder if they had put more emphasis on their marriage and family and less on the fame and money, what might have happened. I can't even watch that show after i watched Kate humiliate Jon repeatedly- even making fun of him if he misspoke.
I do hope it all works out for them and their children. It just goes to show that money does not solve all problems and probably creates some new ones too.
I completely agree, Nancy. Kate was downright rude to her husband in front of the cameras. Always made me wonder how she treated him off camera. I think it's sad that they are using their children for the family income.
An apartment in Trump Towers...now that's kid-friendly (NOT!).
I won't watch the show tomorrow for the "big announcement" but I read somewhere online that Kate has already seen a divorce lawyer and John is dating the daughter of Kate's plastic surgeon- the one who did her tummy tuck.
I think they'll regret some of their choices when they realize this stuff will stick around forever in cyberspace for their kids to see and read years from now.
