Jon Gosselin Is A Hero! He Saves A Woman From Her Burning House
Jon Gosselin has been on a downward spiral ever since he split from his wife Kate, mother of their eight kids.
But on Saturday, the much-slammed reality show dad turned into a hero, saving a woman from her burning house in Reading, Pennsylvania, RadarOnline.com has learned.
According to a source, "Jon saw a house on fire in his neighborhood and called 911. But that's not all—he banged on the door and got the woman out and then went back in to get her two dogs, too!"
Another insider says, "Jon was truly at the right place at the right time."
But incredibly, when pals contacted Jon to praise him for his heroism, the TV father told them, "Thanks but I'm not a hero. I'm sure it was just circumstance and any one of us would have done the same thing."
Jon, 41, who famously split from wife Kate in 2008 while rumors flew he had cheated, was officially divorced from her in 2009.
