Kate blasts Jon after he boo-hoos AGAIN on national TV.
After Jon Gosselin whined that he’d taken "a lot of abuse" from estranged wife Kate, she’s blasted back, calling him "a complete and pathological liar."
The soon-to-be-single mom and star of TLC’s reality series Jon & Kate Plus 8 is also convinced Jon has befriended the paparazzi, and is encouraging them to harass her, sources say.
"Jon often chats up the photographers, and exchanges phone numbers with them. He calls them to tip them about Kate’s every move, and even tells them specific things to yell at Kate to taunt her," said an insider.
"TLC actually tracked Jon’s phone calls and found out that he was the leak in security! TLC told Kate to not tell Jon exactly where she is."
In his first TV interview since the couple filed for divorce on June 22, Jon told ABC’s Good Morning America on Sept. 2 that he’s fed up and ready to move on from their 10-year marriage.
"I took a lot of abuse from her. I was put down," he said, adding that Kate may have been pretending to be distressed when police were recently called to the couple’s Pennsylvania home.
"I wouldn’t let her in the gate. I said I’m spending time with my kids…and she’s going to have to leave, and she tried to cry it up with the cops and it didn’t work, and they just basically said (to her) you have to leave."
A source said: "Kate is disgusted by Jon’s claims that he was the victim of ‘abuse’ by her. She thinks that he should man up – and shut up."
A pal added: "Kate said, ‘He’s a complete and pathological liar! He’s acting pathetic and sad because he is starving for attention.’"
