When Kate told the twins about the divorce, one broke down and cried while the other was all "Yeah, I kinda figured." Ouch. Downer Ending: The show was canceled amid Jon and Kate's divorce proceedings.Then the media turned him into a douchebag manbastard (admittedly, some of his behavior was suspect and didn't help) and the formerly demonized Kate was made sympathetic.
