Jon claims he hasn’t seen all eight of his children together at once in “three or four years,” and during a recent interview with People magazine, his 15-year-old twin daughters Mady and Cara said they barely knew him.

“He makes it seem like we’re being kept from him, which is insane,” Mady said. “He should maybe spend some time thinking about why we don’t want to see him, and maybe realize that if he ever does want a relationship with us, talking about us on TV is not the way to make that happen.”

Jon said Mady’s answer shocked him.
“I’m very upset,” he said during an interview. “I love my children very much. I’ve always been there for them and I always will be.”
“It’s shocking.”
