Romantically linked to Hailey Glassman, the daughter of the plastic surgeon who performed ex-wife Kate Gosselin's tummy tuck, and former Star Magazine's reporter Kate Major, Jon Gosselin claims he is dating no one. "At this point ... I'm single - per se," he told People at the Mercedes-Benz Polo Challenge at Blue Star Jets Field on Saturday, July 25.
"I'm just a regular guy who just wants to have friendship and good times. And I like meeting people", the father of eight children continued saying. Asked about his relationship with Hailey, with whom he spent a romantic trip to Saint-Tropez recently, Jon revealed, "She's always a good friend of mine. Her family is so good. They took me in and I lived there for a while. I love them to death."
"She doesn't like this [craziness]. She loves me for who I am and not for what I do," he explained further. "We are going to chill out for a while and see where it takes us. I'm not looking for anyone." As for Kate, Jon insisted he and the journalist are just friends and nothing more.
"I'm just trying to concentrate on my family first, second my career. That's what I have to do," Jon told People about his priorities now that he is divorcing from Kate. "I'm really looking forward to it - to turning my phone off, playing with my kids in the pool and being the dad".
Jon Gosselin and Kate Gosselin tied the knot in June 1999. They have their lives being chronicled in hit reality TV "Jon & Kate Plus 8". She filed for divorce from him earlier this month. He has since often been spotted spending time with Hailey Glassman and was recently photographed hanging out with Kate Major.
