LOS ANGELES, Calif. -- Jon and Kate Gosselin may be getting a divorce, but the separated couple didn't celebrate their independence on the 4th of July.

Instead, the reality stars joined their eight children for the holiday at their home in Wernersville, Pa., People reported.

The family was reportedly spotted playing volleyball and picking blueberries for a cake baked by Kate. For his part, Jon lit up a sparkler.

"Jon pointed to the July 4 holiday and said, 'What are we going to do about that?'" Kate previously told the mag. "I absolutely cannot imagine not spending every single holiday with my kids. I don't care what it takes. I will be there."

The show is on hiatus until August 3 in order to give the family "time off to regroup," according to TLC.

    Jon is going to quickly find out that the grass is not greener on the other side. I think it is sad that he has taken this route and leave his beautiful wife and children. I just pray that they will be strong and make it through all of this crazy mess!

    If they can be nice to one another for there children, and they should be together for the holidays. The children will have a better life if they can stay friends. Another thing i do think that Jon and Kate should not do any more tv shows. The children need a normal life.

    I think that ppl r to worried for the kids health being on tv but they have been filmed since they were born so ther used to it and they dont mind having them there bc its like having friends over for them. so i think that ppl should drop this and let jon and kate figure out whats best for the family and not the public
