Jon minus Kate opens up about new girlfriend
Now that the cat is completely out of the bag concerning his broken marriage, Jon Gosselin is speaking out about the new lady in his life.
The 32-year-old opens up about his relationship with 22-year-old PARTAY Girl Hailey Glassman in the People Magazine due to hit stands Friday, E Online reports.
In Touch Weekly says the new couple is engaged. That would be super duper quick.
In People’s cover story “From Divorce To Dating in 20 Days,” Jon says he recently started a relationship with Glassman, an old family friend.
“I genuinely enjoy spending time with her. It’s nice to be with someone who I can confide in and trust and who accepts me for who I am,” he says according to E.
The “Jon & Kate Plus Eight” star said he knew he’d catch flak for vacationing in France with Glassman.
“I hope that people can see I’m a regular guy who is going through a very difficult time in [my] life and wants to move forward,” he says in the People article.
Jon and Kate Gosselin told the world they were splitting up on Monday, June 22.
Should we give Jon some slack? He is after all a regular dude with eight kids and a TLC reality show.
