Looks like the Gosselin fallout has begun.
The Ronald McDonald House canceled an appearance by Kate Gosselin after ticket sales were slow, the charity’s spokeswoman confirms to . The spokeswoman attributes the low sales to the fact that the event was to be held over Memorial Day weekend, and they did not have enough time to “properly promote” it. Tickets were between $25 and $45. After Us Weekly exclusively reported Jon was having an affair with a 23-year-old teacher, and was suspicious of his wife’s relationship with her bodyguard, 82 percent of Usmagazine.com readers admitted they wouldn’t tune in for the May 25 season premiere. Gosselin seemed unfazed by the cancellation while shopping with one of her sextuplets, Alexis, near their $1.1-million home Monday. “Kate seemed in a good mood today,” a witness tells Us of the mother-daughter duo, who stopped by a local bank, a Kinko’s and the dentist. On Sunday, the family filmed the sextuplet’s fifth birthday party. It was more than a week after the kids’ actual birthday — mother’s day — in which Kate spent the afternoon tanning instead of with her children.
The birthday party also marked Jon and Kate’s first appearance together in more than two weeks. A witness told Us they hardly interacted and left in separate cars.
