A TLC spokesperson is shooting down a New York Daily News report that Jon’s former fling, 23-year-old school teacher, will be featured on the show. “Deanna’s role isn’t expected to be big, but because she’s part of Jon’s life, she’ll be filmed,” an insider told the paper.

In an interview with The New York Times, TLC president Eileen O’Neill addressed the network’s decision to stop airing the show until Aug. 3 in light of the couple’s split.

“Once we understood that they were going to make an announcement [regarding their split], we discussed various scenarios with them,” she said. “We really collaborated on what would make sense for the family.
