NEW YORK — Kate Gosselin said her marriage to Jon would have failed whether it played out in the glare of a TV reality show or not.

"Was (divorce) a product of the show? I feel like it would have happened anyway — cameras on or cameras off," she said.

Appearing on NBC's "Today" yesterday, Kate Gosselin spoke to host Meredith Vieira about her separation from her husband, which was announced in June on their TLC network reality show, "Jon & Kate Plus 8."

Despite their separation, both parents continue with the hit show, which documents the challenges of raising twins and sextuplets.

JACKSON AUTOPSY RESULTS ON HOLD FOR NOW

LOS ANGELES — Coroner's investigators have completed their probe into the death of Michael Jackson but are not releasing the results yet, authorities said yesterday.

The Los Angeles County coroner's office said police investigators requested that facts about what killed Jackson remain under a security hold while detectives investigate the events leading up to the pop icon's death.

Neither the coroner's office nor the Police Department would say when the results might be made public.

Jackson died June 25 after his personal physician, Dr. Conrad Murray, found him not breathing in bed.

FOX AIRING TWO-HOUR 'OCTOMOM' SPECIAL

NEW YORK — The Fox network said yesterday it will air a two-hour special on the life of "Octomom" Nadya Suleman, based on footage bought from an online company that paid for access to her life. Fox has scheduled the show for Aug. 19.

Suleman, already a single mother of six, gave birth to octuplets Jan. 26. Curiosity about Suleman turned to some outrage after it became clear that the single, unemployed mother had been using student loans and Social Security disability payments to help pay for her children's care.
