Best Answer

Jon's father did pass away when the babies were a few months old. He was their hands-on helpful grandparent and they miss him dearly. Jon's mom, however, is still present in their life, but just doesn't want to be on TV. Jon talks to his mom more than once a day and she does see the kids. She lives 80+ miles from the Gosselins and isn't able to be in the children's immediate life.

Kate's parents have nothing to do not only with Kate and her family, but with all of her siblings' families as well. They have basically detached themselves from their children and grandchildren. The live and work in the same area the Gosselins live.

Jon addresses the issue of their parents -- and their involvement with the family -- in an interview with KUTV. See Sources and Related Links below this answer for the video: mention of the grandparents is in the 2nd or 3rd video segment.

Kate Gosselin is estranged from her parents. Because when the babies were born, Kates dad donated cribs and clothing, and Kate refused since the clothing was not matching, and the cribs were not exactly the same.

Answer

Jon's father is deceased. His mom is remarried. According to Jon she has moved far away and isn't able to be in the children's immediate life. Kates parents are "Out of the picture". Lets just say its personal. Kate's father has his Masters Degree in Education. He is a Teacher, a Minister, owns a large Campground, was in local government and they just built a large beautiful house. Due to various reasons unknown to the viewers they are not around. Kate is not estranged from her parents. She stated in an episode of Jon and Kate Plus Eight that they simply don't live in the same neighborhood and just because you don't see them on the show, they still participate in the lives of all 8 Gosselin Children.

Kate Gosselin's parents are Kenton E. and Charlene R. Kreider.

They live in Hershey, Pa.

In the 1970s they purchased 86 acres of property on Elizabethtown rd in Palmyra, Pa. Thy lived in the farmhouse w/barn and on the rest they tried to start a Christian Campground called "Jubilee Acres Christian Campground."

They sold it after Kenton was brought in front of the Londonderry Township zoning board after he violated numerous zoning laws while operating it.

The current owners have made part of it into a trailer park which you can see from the road which is why there are numerous discrepancies over whether Kate grew up in a trailer park or not.

She did not.

They bought property down the road and built a new house, where they still live.
Kate Gosselin's parents' names are Charlene and Kenton Kreider.

Jon's father is deceased. Jon's mother is remarried and lives in north central Pennsylvania. She does not live close enough to be involved in the Gosselin's daily lives, but Jon speaks to her at least once a day on his cell phone.

While the question is legitimate on WA we refrain from posting detailed address (or phone number/cell phone/private e-mail/zip code etc) information.
