Hailey: Jon is My 'First Love'
Jon Gosselin's girlfriend, Hailey Glassman, is breaking her silence about her relationship with the reality dad -- and rumors he's been two-timing her with former tabloid reporter Kate Major.
"I wasn't worried," Hailey admits to E! News about Jon spending time with Major in the Hamptons, adding that the two were never romantic. Major insists her relationship with Jon was intimate, but Glassman doesn't buy it. "I know what Jon tells me and I know him... but she's cuckoo, cuckoo, you know?"
The 22-year-old also explained that she had nothing to do with Jon's split from his wife, Kate. Hailey, who refers to Jon as her "first love," said her friendship with Gosselin began in May -- months after the reality couple had separated. Jon was staying at Glassman's parents' house at the time, and their friendship quickly turned romantic. He was living in my house, the person I joked around with. He was sad and bored, I was home and bored."
Hailey insists that she's not using Jon for the spotlight. "I'm not some fame whore. Take my 15 minutes, you can have it back. Please take it back!"
Glassman also claims that it is only the public who can't get over that she's seeing Jon. "Jon and Kate have moved on with their lives -- it's only the viewers who haven't moved on," she said.
She continued, "I want people to know the truth. Right now I'm speaking from my heart, myself. I'm not some celebrity, I'm not some famous person -- I'm just a 22-year-old girl who got caught in the middle of all this."
