Jon, Kate Gosselin divorce may finalise for 2009


The couple had a constructive weekend divorce hearing and are looking for an end to the divorce proceedings this year, according to Jon's attorney, Mark Heller.

After weeks of legal wrangling, the divorce of Jon and Kate Gosselin – aka Jon & Kate Plus 8 – could wrap up by the end of the year.

The couple had a constructive weekend divorce hearing and are looking for an end to the divorce proceedings this year, according to Jon's attorney, Mark Heller.

He said: "It was a positive move in the right direction for us to bring them together to the mediation table. Obviously before two warring parties can smoke the peace pipe, they have to sit down at a table and address the issues that brought them to the skirmish."

The hearing was so successful, there was no need to keep another one set for the following day, Heller said. The uptick was a shift from the recent warring over money Kate claimed Jon snaffled out of their joint bank account. He added: "There were a couple of very emotional moments but in the end it all came together and concluded on a happy note."

The future of the revamped TLC Kate Plus 8, put on hold by Jon's legal actions, remains to be seen.
