Jon Gosselin reignited his public feud with ex Kate Gosselin last week when the former reality TV star came out swinging in a new interview. She quickly returned his fire.
In a Philadelphia magazine profile about his fall from being the patriarch of TLC's "Jon & Kate Plus 8" to a restaurant-working cabin dweller, Jon Gosselin had some choice words for his ex-wife.

"Everyone thinks I'm out to get Kate. I don't give a f—!" the 36-year-old told the magazine. "What would I get out of it? Everyone knows she's an a—hole, you know what I mean? I don't have to — she's proven that!"
The Gosselins rose to fame in 2007 when the Discovery Health Channel launched a reality show about their family of multiples — twins Mady and Cara and sextuplets Alexis, Hannah, Aaden, Collin, Leah, and Joel. The show drew great ratings and migrated to TLC after two seasons, where it stayed until 2009, when Jon and Kate Gosselin announced their separation.
Since their very public divorce — which saw Jon Gosselin's newfound partying ways and string of younger women splashed across tabloid front pages — the exes have regularly traded barbs in the press.
"Kate wants to still be on television. She's now digging into the past, because that's what sells. Too late, honey. No one gives a f—, really," he told Philadelphia magazine. "She tweets everything. To the world, all about my children. I think it's disgusting and awful. They can't even have a normal life."
Gosselin, who was recently promoted from server to maître d' at the Black Dog Cafe in rural Pennsylvania, made headlines back in November when he told Oprah Winfrey that his children struggled "developmentally."
Kate Gosselin immediately lashed out at her ex-husband on her blog.
"I find it very heartbreaking that my children's father chooses a public forum to discuss his current opinions of the 'development' of our children. These opinions are, in reality, value judgments made about our children and they are based on his limited visits [albeit mutually agreed upon] with our children," she wrote. "When our kids grow up, they may see their father’s latest interview and wonder why he made untrue and hurtful statements about them."
Jon Gosselin and his girlfriend of two years, Liz Jannetta, will be seen on the upcoming new season of VH1's "Couples Therapy," which premieres Thursday at 9 p.m. EST.
