Stick a fork in them—Jon and Kate Gosselin are done.

Nearly six months after the infamous reality couple offered the "very special"—and very televised—announcement that they had filed for divorce after 10 years of marriage, their separation was, as expected, made official today.

While the finer points of the divorce, including the division of assets, money and child custody, remain confidential, the tabloid flavors of the month last 11 months (thanks for the reprieve, Tiger!) had been waiting for a Pennsylvania judge to formally sign off on an abritrator-approved deal.

But don't expect to see the Gosselins making their usual media rounds in the wake of their newly single stats—and not just because Jon's lawyer told E! News this week that his focus was not "on the litigation, but on his family." Rather, earlier this month, a judge in TLC's court battle with Jon granted a preliminary injunction barring him from making TV appearances.

Now that's what we call an early Christmas gift.
