The rumors were true: "Kate Plus 8," the second reality TV incarnation following the lives of the Gosselin clan (this time minus patriarch John), has been canceled. Kate Gosselin is putting on a brave face, and looking forward to future opportunities.
TLC opted not to renew "Kate Plus 8," revealed OnTheRedCarpet.com on Monday, but a spokesperson teased that future specials could be a possibility.
Kate Gosselin took to Twitter to share her feelings on the news; her eight "tweets" at @kateplusmy8 together read (note: some editing for readability): "We've had a great run! Six years of whirlwind funfilled adventures thanks to TLC and our many many supportive &diehard fans! While it is very sad for me and the kids (there were many tears at the breakfast table this morning!), we are looking forward with great anticipation to our bright future!
