Hailey Glassman is living large and dreaming big a year and half out after what she describes a period of her life involving her ex-boyfriend Jon Gosselin as a “nightmare”. Imperfect Women reached out to Hailey over a year ago after reading some of her tweets and getting the impression that she wanted to vent a little. The timing was not right at that point for Hailey but we kept in touch and recently she indicated she was ready to talk about her life: past, present and what she looks forward to in the future.
Hailey recently moved back to her old stomping grounds on the Upper West side, an area that she is very fond of. “I have Fairway (amazing grocery store), Lincoln Center, Zabars all in my neighborhood,” she said. “ The Upper West Side is more of a family area. I like that, and my parents live right across the George Washington Bridge so it’s easier for my mom to come in and have our mother/daughter lunches together.”
She is currently working in PR and Event planning in New York City but is excited about launching her own PR firm, Hailey Glassman PR & Events, in the very near future. Hailey feels that not only her recent professional experience but also her first hand personal experience gives her the tools to “relate to my clients on both ends of the spectrum, which is very important when dealing with all facets of the media.” She expands on that by stating “You don’t truly know the ins and outs of the media unless you have been through it first hand and most publicists can only see and relate from their college, working, and interning experiences. I know it first hand and professionally. My experience is priceless never mind my vast rolodex of contacts I have kept relationships with and have for my clients. It’s a lot of work though. I eat, sleep, and breathe work. Work is my main priority right now in my life.”
Hailey indicates that she has very little free time on her hands due to her exhausting work schedule catering to clients and time needed to generate a successful launching of her new PR firm. However, when she does have free time, she loves to snowboard in the winter, go to the Hamptons in the summer, play tennis and go out to dinner and have cocktails with her friends.
When asked about the rumors in the tabloids about a possible movie deal, she responded, “I can’t really speak about that due to contracts. We are in negotiations. I can’t just pick up and leave for months while launching my firm. I mean, I am Jewish so if the money is right, how can I say no, but a definite NO to nudity. I refuse to ever get naked in a movie. The lesbian scene, eh…they better cough up some $$$ for that. Maybe a kiss and stuff here and there.”
Pasha, a nightclub on W. 46th St. in New York was recently the venue for Hailey’s 24th birthday party. I asked her how that night was and she responded that it was great and also gave out a little advice on how to stay looking younger.” I feel as if it should have been my 40th birthday with all the life experience I’ve endured. The botox made me feel 24 though. The media and my ex caused me so much stress and along came the stress lines on my forehead that I had to rid my face of. So I got a little botox on the frown lines and felt like my old self again! Women- sometimes when you have been through so much stress it causes your stress lines to get deeper. When you get a little botox it’s as if you never went through it. Well physically it helps but you still have the emotional inner stress and hurt from it. Nothing in life is a quick fix. Remember that.”
I have always found Hailey likeable and honest and right from the beginning I felt she was in the middle of a hurricane regarding her relationship with Jon. There is no denying that she did learn a great deal about the media firsthand during this relationship and subsequent break up. When the questions turn to Jon Gosselin, Hailey’s tone changes dramatically, and it’s clear this vibrant young woman still has some venting to do.
The sticking point with Hailey is her claim that Jon still owes her a large amount of money. “It was horrible. I have never been so miserable in my life. I am not getting into details right now… you can read it in my book. I would never speak of his name ever again if he would just follow through with his commitment and promise to pay me my $200,000 back. He spoke to my family a year ago and promised he would pay it all back by May 1, 2010. We have not heard from him or seen a penny.” For those who wonder if Hailey’s accusations are valid, she states that she has a “copy of a cashiers check with “loan” in the memo from Key Bank and a contract with myself, him, and an attorney.”
“Unfortunately, I am going to have to sue him in court someday. Right now I am too busy to sue him and don’t want the stress of it on my family. My attorney and I were going to file but Jon is once again going to cash in. He will sell everything pertaining to the case like he did to his ex wife Kate. We know how he works. So I need to sue him at the right time. I hate that he truly made it come to this. After my family took him in when he had nowhere to go and supported him. What does he do in return: he lies, manipulates, steals, and took advantage of the whole Glassman family. All I have to say is the day I do see him, you will see me coming out of court with a big smile on my face, and with only one word to say, #WINNING- (courtesy of Charlie Sheen).”
The picture Hailey paints of the relationship is sad and dramatic for someone of such a young age. She speaks of lies and cheating. He was unfaithful numerous times and Hailey states that after getting caught he would “come to me crying and say that the media was lying and that he would never do that to me. He would then call my mom (Lauren Glassman) to manipulate her to convince me to take him back.”
She does dish quite a bit (will let her share those stories with you in her book) but the one that sticks out in my mind is when Hailey says Jon was caught with “the nanny.” As Hailey recalls, Jon came over to her house to beg forgiveness and crying, “Marry me – you are my soul mate. I love you and don’t want to live without you.” “He walked into my room with a huge Louis Vuitton bag. I opened it up and it was the runway bag with the red leather and leopard, just gorgeous. Anyway, I was so happy about the bag I semi let it go. Then I saw my credit card statement a month later to find out I PAID FOR THAT BAG! He used my money to buy me the bag! I now call that bag the “Nanny Bag” and I can’t even look at it or use that $11,000 bag. All my friends always ask me, “Hailey when are you going to wear you Louis leopard,’ I respond and say, “I can’t even look at that Nanny bag.”
One point that I believe Hailey would like to convey in all of this is that she did not break up Jon Gosselin’s marriage. “He was kicked out and they were done way before I entered the picture. He was living in my house way before I even came home from college.” She also feels that given the relationship between the Gosselins and the Glassmans prior to the split, Kate should have came out to the media and said, ”Hailey had nothing to do with breaking up our marriage.”
We want to thank Hailey for this interview and wish her all the best on moving forward.
A few other things about Hailey:
About her mother…
I have protected my mom from the media and to this day I will continue to protect her. Like I said to Jon in the end when he threatened me, “you can hurt me, cheat on me, and lie to me, whatever you want, hurt me, but don’t dare hurt my Mom”.
On Kate Gosselin…
My mother wanted to help a women feel sexy again and help her get her confidence back. (Goal achieved and Kate looks amazing!)
On her biggest imperfection…
My biggest imperfection I would have to say is my weight. My weight tends to fluctuate when I’m upset. I use food at times as a coping mechanism and for comfort. I’m sure its common with many women though. But yeah I do get sensitive about my weight at times. When I go running and then stop- I feel my butt stop like, 3 seconds behind me. Haha! I’m being serious and all you women out there know you relate.
On regrets…..
I live life with no regrets. I don’t mean to sound like my Grandma but “If I knew then what I know now.”
On the media…
In a nut shell the media is like the beast, you feed the beast or the beast is going to eat you. There is nothing you can say or do when it comes to the media. It’s a battle that will never be won and you can’t sue them for bogus “sources” and stories because a tabloids pockets are a lot deeper then any normal citizen.
Hailey’s life mantra…
I live my life and has always lived my life by these words: Everything Happens For a Reason.
“Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don’t matter and those who matter don’t mind”- Dr.Seuss
On the future…
In ten years I see myself owning two PR firms, one in LA and one in Manhattan. Everything I have been through has been a huge learning experience. I could have been in college for 20 years for PR and would have never gained the knowledge I have from personal experience. It’s ironic I ended up going into PR but like I said before- everything happens for a reason. This isn’t the last you will be hearing from Hailey Glassman.

She seems like a nice, funny person. There is a video up on ROL of her visiting the “scene of the crime” (her apartment with Jon) and talking to the doormen and desk clerk. “I love you, I love you. You remember me, right?”
I do think it’s a bit much to have expected Kate to clear her of homewrecking when she was going to France with her husband. Hailey could also have considered “the relationship between the Glassmans and the Gosselins” and not become involved with him in such a public way while they were still married.
Interesting. I always thought people were mean to her. I thought she was just a normal early 20 year old who smoked pot and got drunk with her friends. I mean who hasn’t done that right? Or who doesn’t have embarrassing pictures of themselves somewhere. Most of us are lucky enough to have done our partying before digital cameras and Facebook were around. It was just unfortunate that she got involved with the wrong guy at the wrong time and have all her personal business publicized for all to judge.
.
I hope she gets her money and I also believe everything happens for a reason and every life experience, sometimes especially the bad ones, are an opportunity for learning and personal growth.
.
I like that blouse she has on in the picture and now I am going to look up that bag she talked about.
I agree Kiki, with all of post #1
Overall, I thought she sounded like a kid who had to do some growing up really fast, but I was taken aback by the sentence, “I mean, I am Jewish so if the money is right, how can I say no…” I’m not Jewish, but that will be twisted every which way it can be against her…so we see her version of the seamy side of Saint Jon? I actually DO like Jon, and cared for him as the father of the kids, and wish him well, but all that whitewashing of his behavior and turning it around to blame Kate–what’s that saying about karma?
I wish Hailey well in her endeavors, and if what she says about Jon *is* true, I hope the scandal from all that will be kept from the kids so they can keep their dad (sort of) on a ‘my daddy’s the best’ pedestal!
Prayers for all involved. I’m sure Kate will be blamed for forcing Hailey to ‘make all of this up just to get even with Saint Jon”, *sigh*. 🙁
I am glad that Hailey is happy and moving forward with her life. I don’t think Kate owed or owes her anything and she should make sure she is aware of the statute of limitations on suing Jon for the money he owes.
Did Kate ever say that she broke up their marriage? Didn’t Hailey see how he was disrespecting and taking advantage of other people? Did she think she would be different? I, personally, think she got what she deserved because she was cutthroat too. Although, I don’t think Jon should benefit no matter how cutthroat she is/was. However, her having a hassle getting the money back is on her. She appeared to be an opportunist to me. I hope since she was young she has learned her lesson, but I wouldn’t count on it. It would be nice though.
wow i can’t believe jon had the nerve to buy her an 11 thousand dollar bag and charge it to her..what a slap in the face that would be!!
Theresa E., that bag is visible in pictures from the carriage ride in NYC Hailey and Jon took a few weeks before they broke up. I don’t have a link right now.
I love Hailey’s blouse, too.
I agree that Kate had no reason to defend Hailey. Although they were living apart, we only have Jon’s word that they were “finished.” Maybe Jon lied about the permanence of their separation? Kate may not have been “done” yet. Other couples reunite. Maybe Hailey hasn’t considered that?
I am glad Hailey is moving forward and I do not blame her one bit for wanting that money back. That’s a lot of money for a young woman to just give away. If I were Jon Gosselin, I be doing anything I could to start a payment plan to return the money. I think HAiley will be brutally honest in her book.
I think Hailey is funny and much smarter than anyone gives her credit for. Did she make some mistakes? Yes but we all have when we were young. What I did admire about Hailey was towards the end of her relationship with Jon Hailey fought tooth and nail and told Jon he was wrong for trying to bash and destroy his ex wife any way he could. That’s a big part of what broke up the relationship was because Hailey was not going to buy into Jon’s plan of revenge on Kate and his willingness to use his own children to do that. I wish he nothing but good luck with her future. I’m just betting Hailey’s advice blog will be more popular and get more hits than another young woman that is linked with Jon. At least Hailey is funny and she does wear fashion pretty nice.

Is that the bag? WOW …I’d rather have a car!
Jane I must disagree. Nobody deserves to be under police investigation and accused of doing something when it was the accuser that did it and even more disgusting put this young woman under police scrutiny for a publicity stunt. I personally don’t think it was a very funny thing to do to anyone. I see it from a different point of view. I think Jon was using Hailey as a way to hurt Kate and when Hailey didn’t want to go along with Jon’s plans to hurt her more Hailey told Jon she was out and you have to hand it to her, she did get out. Jon’s revenge on her was to get her accused of a felony that HE did. Hailey seems to be fine and has learned and I’m betting she will be far more successful than a certain boyfriend she had in her life. Sorry but I don’t think borrowing that much money from anyone and not intending on paying it back is wrong no matter who it is.
Women got to know that how your boyfriend speaks about his EX is exactly how they are going to speak about you at some point! 😉
He needs to pay her back.
but you know me
I’m just sayin’
Ann, is this the picture? http://cdn.buzznet.com/media/jj1/2009/10/gosselin-carriage/jon-gosselin-hailey-glassman-horse-carriage-04.jpg
Oops, sorry, pattypie found it first! That’ll show me to read before I post, LOL.
It may be in her book, but I wonder if she thinks differently of Kate now that she has seen the lying, manipulating, cheating side of Jon.
Great interview Pam. I think if I was Hailey, getting the money back from Jon would be a priority.
I think we did see Hailey’s change in attitude towards Kate towards the end of Jon and Hailey’s relationship. Hailey did make reference if I remember right as to she understood what Kate must have gone through as she experienced the same behavior on Jon’s part. The problem was like many women no matter what age they are, they don’t recognize or want to admit it until it’s nearly over or is finished. Unfortunately women tend to be sometimes too trusting especially when it comes to men.
I’ve seen some comments about Hailey’s video and from her twitter you can tell she just is a very lively and upbeat young woman who loves life and it’s unfortunate that just because she seems to enjoy life and not take everything so seriously people automatically accuse her of being high on something. I just remember being her age and having a similar personality and I never used any illegal drugs in my life but loved to enjoy life especially at Hailey’s age and I guess if I had done a video during that time in my life someone might have accused me of being “high” on something instead of realizing that some people just get a high on enjoying life and living it to the fullest and having fun with it. What a shame that society’s first thought is the person must be on something.
How would Jon feel if in the future some man took one of his Daughters money?
I didn’t think Hailey was on somethin because of her actions, I thought it sounded like she was slurring her words. But after looking at other footage of her, she just doesn’t pronounce her words very clearly (like so many of my kids friends). I wish she would go after Jon for her money.
I’m glad to see Hailey moving on with her life. I think she learned some very tough life lessons during her time with Jon, I’m sure she won’t make the same mistakes again.
Kmom2 I do remember Hailey saying sometime back that one of the things holding her back from filing against Jon at that time was because she was afraid that Jon would not pay his child support or have an excuse to not pay if he was to pay her. I’m not sure how long she can wait to file a lawsuit and I thought it was two years but maybe I’m mistaken on that. I also hope she gets her money back because maybe one day she will marry and that money could be used for her children’s college tuition so she should definitely try to get it back. The question is whether Jon will ever make enough money to cover his child support payments, his living expenses and pay all the people back that he owes money to. Although it’s not been stated anywhere that I know of, surely Jon owes quite a bit of money in lawyer fees also. Kate said she owes quite a bit of legal debt that she is paying back so surely Jon has also. Hailey is a very young girl and that is alot of money so I hope she does get it back. I’ll bet she never loans anyone money ever again though. Another life lesson learned.
Hailey is most definitely an opportunist. She used Jon gosselin to get her name in the press. I don’t belive for a second that she had real intentions with Jon, a father of 8 children. Give me a break!! She never wanted him, she wanted to take advantage of the fact that he was having a very public break up, as a way to get her name out there. Any publicity is good publicity right? I’m sorry but this girl makes me sick to my stomach. He was a married man, broken up with his wife or not. And if you are fool enough to lend that loser $200,000 than your a total moran and deserve what you get. Enough said
Its one thing putting your trust in someone when you let them into your life only to find out they are a imposture but its quite another when they rob you too. Its much easier to get over a broken heart.
I’m glad to hear Hailey Love’s her work, I have no doubt she will be successful.
There is not anything wrong IMO in building a successful career. That can be very fulfilling. When the times right a good man will show himself. Its not something she needs in order to be complete.
Furthermore, u just turned 24 and your getting Botox? What’s the matter with you? And she says that her weight is her biggest imperfection? No honey, it’s your internal ugliness and shallowness. And besides your rail thin. Next time you want to burn $11,000 why don’t you donate it to charity? There are people starving in this world and you are spending $11,000 on a purse? Not everyone was born a spoiled rich girl in this world
If Hailey is a opportunist then so is every other woman he scammed into bed.
Mikala your comment is blaming the victim.
How would Jon feel if in the future some man took one of his Daughters money?- CocoPuff
That is one reason I am not a big fan of the Gosselin kids coming into a lot of money at 18. Better to wait until they are a bit older and can discern what is a good investment and what is not. Hailey made that mistake, and the man who took her money will certainly be around the Gosselin 8 when they become adults.
I always thought Hailey was on the road just for attention, and Jon was feeding the PR firms with his slanted stories about Kate. Wasn’t it on ET when she finally called him out and Jon was very mad and that’s the first time I could see Jon could be a very mean person. Hailey was done with his lies, and making life miserable for Kate and the kids.
If I was her, I would just file the lawsuit now, get a judgement, but I think Jon would file bankrupcy on her unless it was ordered he could not take this debt into a bankrupcy court. If Ellen thinks Jon is so wonderful, can you imagine being involved with a man who is behide on cs, this debt, and legal fees and who nows what else. I look for Jon never to take Kate to court for anything now. I would think Ellen would be ashamed of what Jon has done to these other women in his life, but maybe they are really alike.
Thanks, PattyPie and Whodunit4, that’s the one I was thinking of. I am not sure, what do you think?
It’s an interesting purse. I’d rather have teh car, too, though. My purses never cost more that $50!
Hailey’s father is a plastic surgeon I doubt she paid for Botox.
And here we go again someone telling another how to spend their money ~LOL
Jon — — USED her credit card to buy that purse did you read something else?
And if you wanna give out advice to how anyone should be spending or using their Money TELL Jon to pay back Hailey.
I understand what you are saying Ann, IMO it doesn’t matter what age someone is they can be scammed out of money at any age.
I do not think Jon would appreciate any man coming along and taking money from his daughters and then NOT paying it back.
It was easy for me to not judge Hailey, she was young, she came home from collage and Jon was already a guest in her home. He targeted her, she fit his criteria. She believed everything he told her about his marriage and Kate. She really believed that he loved her and when a girl is young and in love she believes everything he tells her. I bet she will never believe another man when he whines about his ex.
IMO Hailey was never a opportunist when it comes to Jon, she was a young rich girl that didn’t know any better. I’m not saying she didn’t like the media attention, not at all, I’m saying I don’t believe it was part or her plan ever.
Sometimes I’ve wondered if she would have overlooked his con game, gone along with his underhanded games if he had not cheated on her. I want to believe she wouldn’t have.
“He walked into my room with a huge Louis Vuitton bag. I opened it up and it was the runway bag with the red leather and leopard, just gorgeous. Anyway, I was so happy about the bag I semi let it go. Then I saw my credit card statement a month later to find out I PAID FOR THAT BAG! He used my money to buy me the bag! I now call that bag the “Nanny Bag” and I can’t even look at it or use that $11,000 bag.
******************
Jon acted as though he PAID for the bag and gave it to her as a gift, she did not find out until months later she paid for it ~
By that time it was way to late to take it back.

Ann it was my understanding from some time back that the kids trusts wouldn’t go to them until the age of 25. Eighteen had been considered but apparently Kate and Jon were advised that it would be better for the children if they were a little older before they would be of age for the trusts and that’s why 25 was decided. Now of course if money is needed for college and the expenses of their further education they are able to withdraw from the trusts for that reason only. Whatever is left or not used will be available at the age of 25. I agree eighteen if far too young for any young adult to come into a large sum of money.
Thank you, Joy. I hope you are right. I worry that very rich teens will be easy prey for people who want to take advantage of them. It doesn’t keep me up at night, lol. I am very hopeful for their future lives. 🙂
I agree with many of you and I don’t believe Hailey was an opportunitst at all. She was very young and it’s been said that Jon can be quite charming and I do believe that Jon took advantage of her youth and inexperience. Mikala did you read the article? Hailey didn’t buy the $11000 for the purse but Jon bought it using her credit card pretending that he had bought it with his own money as a gift to her. Why so much anger Mikala? I can actually see how stress could age you and the face is typically one of the first places for the effects of stress to effect. So if she wanted Botox so what? I certainly am not going to judge someone so harshly over something millions of other women both young and old do. As far as weight, it’s something that all girls, all women normally are concerned about and Hailey is no different than any other woman when it comes to feeling insecure in that area. Just because someone comes from money doesn’t necessarily mean that she has money unless she works for it. How do we know she was spoiled? Just because a person has wealthy parents doesn’t mean the children are going to be automatically spoiled either?
Do I particularly approve of any woman having a relationship with a still married man? No I don’t but I certainly don’t hate them either as we are all human and we all make mistakes.
Ann I could be wrong of course but I do remember Kate talking about it quite awhile back during an interview and I hope I heard it right because IMO eighteen is far too young to be given a lump sum of money. They all like to think they are grown up at that age but we all know they still have so much to learn yet.
Well if the Gosselin kids are given their money at 18 ~
I bet Jon will be right there with his hands out.
Just wait and see!
LOL
I have thought the same thing Coco and Ann. I want to believe that it won’t happen that way with the kids money and Jon. I know what he’s said it the past and I don’t put it past him but I just want to believe he won’t do that to his children.
Money and emotions are not a good mix.
CoCoPuff I personally hope that doesn’t happen. Could you imagine how hard it would be if your father who you love dearly stood in front of you asking you for some money? I only hope Jon never puts them in that position as it’s something that would tear any child up to say no to a parent. I don’t know if I could no matter how many people advised me not to.
I honestly hope it does NOT happen~ I was laughing while saying the ~ Just wait and see line.
But like Deb said,
I wouldn’t put it past Jon ~ IMO he is the type to do it, he has no shame.
I think (don’t know, just think) that Kate used the 529 accounts (the ones set up by the governor with $0 balance) for the original money she put aside. These were part of the 11 accounts that Kate was accused of hiding money. This was the $80K that Jon said was missing. So IF it’s a 529 then the kids have access to the money to support education.
It means that it will be difficult for Jon to get at it but nothing is impossible.
No one is saying Jon is going to get at the kids money now~ Or in the near future.
I believe what a few of us are saying is we think there is a strong possibility that Jon will be around the kids with his hands out once they get the money that Kate has put away for them , either they get it at 18 or 24.
Would anyone be able to explain to me HOW Jon Gosselin could charge $11k on Hailey’s charge card? I could understand Jon being able to get away w. charging his meals etc. in NYC on Kate’s (as he so bragged)…not Hailey’s????
Signing her blog post “Winning” and refering to Jon’s penis size is about all I ever need to know about Hailey Glassman.
HB, I wonder the same thing now that you mention it. My kids know how to use my credit card online, but in a store? They wouldn’t be able to get away with it. One time, I had to call ahead and tell the store my son would be in and I permitted him to use it, and they let him. So I wonder if she did the same thing? But WHY?
Maybe Jon used the credit card on-line and then and went and picked it up. Some stories will let you pick things up at the store to save the S and H charges.
I wonder if Hailey got him a card from her account with his name on it. I sure as hell hope not. But it’s a good question.
Something else that just popped into my mind is what about the 35 thousand dollar ring he supposedly bought her. I wonder if that rumor was true?
I know I wouldn’t be so nice if someone owed me 200.000 and was refusing to pay it back.
It’s possible that at one time Hailey because she trusted Jon gave him a note with her written permission to charge something. If he still had that note and the card he could have used it anytime he wanted. I had foolishly done the same thing one time being far too trusting but thankfully I caught it after the third charge showed up on my online account history. Dumb, dumb move on anyone’s part but we make mistakes and hopefully learn from them.
Well unfortunately “winning” has become the new catch phrase and I wouldn’t judge someone just for using it and for me personally although I do like Hailey I must admit I felt it was wrong to mention someone’s “size”. I’ve also heard it’s not the size but how you use it that matters. LOL
Hailey was falsely accused of breaking the law by Jon when he accused her of the Apt break in and vandalism `And he took her money IMO he got off easy when she talked about his short comings.
Joy,
If I remember right Jon shared something about her that was personal, not sure what it was. She told him if he ever told anyone she would share that one little thing about him, well he did so she did. After that there was no going back for her.
Its not her finest moment I agree but I bet there won’t be any others on that size scale brave enough to want to hook up with her. LOL
When I compare Hailey’s life now to Jon’s life now she is “winning”
Deborah well that might be a good way to weed out or as they say in fishing throw back the small ones. Hailey might have done herself a favor.LOL
Thank you Deborah, I didn’t know there was a deal between them about sharing something private. I’m glad you don’t remember what it was but whatever it was, must have sure made Hailey mad so seeing as how I don’t know what it was, nor do I want to know, I will not sit in judgement of her for that little detail. Not that I believe in tit for tat but I’m not in her shoes either.
Deborah said,”When I compare Hailey’s life now to Jon’s life now she is “winning”
LOL Isn’t that the truth? Hailey is winning by a mile and she hasn’t even tried that hard.
ITA Deb
I tell you what, If someone set me up for a felony and they owed me even $10.00 I would be out for blood. He just thought Hailey was just going to go quietly into the night. He guessed that one wrong.
LOL Deb ditto,
IMO Hailey has acted like a meek little lamb compared to the hell any other woman would of given him.
I wonder how Ellen would react ?
Hmmm ~Ellen went ballistic over someone accusing her dogs of pissing can you imagine what she would do if she was accused of stealing and vandalizing?
What type of video would Erin/Ellen make if she loaned Jon 200K and he refused to pay it back ?
Can you imagine the possibilities? ~ LMAO
I think Haiely has brought this issue up again to remind Jon he still owes the money. I wonder what story he told Ellen about this. I look for her to follow through, maybe this was Jon’s warning as to what is to come.
I don’t really think Jon set out to rip Hailey and her family off. I think he thought things were going to go differently for him.
Does anyone think he saw himself where he is now two short years ago ?
I sure hope that life coach of his didn’t actually get her going rate out of him.
I have mixed feelings on the money thing. Can Jon afford to pay it back, would it be to the detriment of his child support? It is a big chunk of change, but is it worth all of what will follow?
marnie that is exactly what Hailey said sometime back. Whether some choose to believe it or not, Hailey does care about the children even though she has never met them and she did state her concern about not wanting Jon paying her back affect the child support he needs to pay. She stated that is what was holding her back from filing a lawsuit and I suspect that is her reason for still holding back from filing. I just hope that Jon knowing this doesn’t use it as an excuse to not pay her back if one day he is able to. I have a feeling she is just “reminding” him that he has a debt he still needs to pay. Some are under the mistaken idea that if Jon owed her money he would be in jail but it’s apparent they don’t know the laws and a person I don’t believe can be put in jail for a personal debt they owe someone.
Hailey said awhile back she didn’t want to interfere with the kids child support, I think she also has to think about him filing bankruptcy as soon as she files a claim against him. She’s just bidding her time. I’m sure she has smart people advising her. My guess is at some point Jon is going to find himself between a rock and a hard place.
He really thought setting her up for the robbery at the NY Apt. his claims would be believed and he would get her drop his dept and he would drop the charges against her.
Deborah I agree, I don’t think that Jon ever even gave it a thought that things wouldn’t go his way. He probably had it in his head that there were lots of people that wanted to hire him in the media and unfortunately even though he puts the blame on TLC there was a PR representative that wasn’t working for Jon but was curious if he was as marketable as he thought he was so the PR person put out “feelers” throughout the industry and he said there wasn’t a single response to his tons of marketing material that went out to what he said was thousands of people in the media or that work with the media. I think it’s possible that maybe one of the people Jon was listening to at the time fed him a line of bull and unfortunately Jon took it hook, line and sinker. So I don’t think he did stiff Hailey intentionally, that’s just the road fate led him and unfortunately Hailey was a victim along the way.
Deborah we must have been posting at the same time. Great minds work alike don’t they? LOL
I’m not so sure about the robbery thing though. I do think Jon’s intention was two fold. To set Hailey up for a fall out of revenge and he was hoping for an insurance pay out. Remember he claimed that a Ming vase was stolen. If his claim had not been denied he could have come into a nice tidy sum of money on that alone.
Oh the Ming vase ~ LMAO
Oh yes Joy, I forgot all about the insurance pay out he was hopping for. In order for a payout Hailey would have to be prosecuted.
I know Jon needs to take care of his children, but he sure didn’t think of them when he was spending thousands like a drunken sailor for a year. If he owes Hailey the money, she has every right to collect it. CS is never forgiven even in bankrupcy so Kate is covered. Hailey needs to be sure if she goes to court that her debt could not be taken in bankrupcy. It has been done in agreements before, so I would file it against him. That is a large amount of money, and Hailey deserves to get it back. Jon has found his match in Hailey, someone who will not back down from him.
Hailey is immature. “Fast and furious” description by, I believe Coco?, perfect! (correct me if I’m imperfect please). I don’t believe a word out of Hailey’s mouth nor, do I believe a word out of Jon’s mouth. If it wasn’t so wrong I’d believe Hailey AND Jon made money off this story. What’da say Erin? Sleeping where the doggies pee? (Maybe getting a little too wet?) It’s all too sickening. Kate and the kids are way too good for this foolishness. Time to stop feeding the fire.
Huh
HB says…Would anyone be able to explain to me HOW Jon Gosselin could charge $11k on Hailey’s charge card? I could understand Jon being able to get away w. charging his meals etc. in NYC on Kate’s (as he so bragged)…not Hailey’s????
.
Hmm, I didn’t think about that. I guess it’s possible he ordered it online? Or he was authorized on the card? Personally, I’d sell the bag or give it to charity. Maybe she has….
.
Even if Jon has totally turned over a new leaf (I hope that is the case), his past actions are going to haunt him for a long time. I truly hope the children will not have to pay the ultimate price.
.
Anyway, I wish Hailey the best.
Sorry, I missed that Patty already put forth the possibility that Jon was authorized on the card.
.
Anyway, this gives me another chance to be able to tell Pam@IW what a great job she did with the interview! 🙂
We have never paid for an interview. So if they made money it wasn’t from us.
lilsmom, I’m trying to figure out how you might think that Hailey AND Jon got paid for the story. Jon’s been out of Hailey’s life for a long time now so why would he get paid for a story? Why would Hailey even give him a dime since he owes her so much money? Hailey hasn’t had any contact as far as I’ve seen with Jon for a long time and Hailey could care less about what Jon is doing now and she has said that on her Twitter. As far as I have seen she (Hailey) doesn’t even talk about Ellen although people have tweeted her about Ellen but she isn’t part of Haileys life nor is Jon. I’m betting that Hailey does have proof that Jon owes her the money but what good does it do to sue someone when they don’t have anything or very little? There is one thing I’ve noticed about Hailey from the beginning is that she is brutally honest and maybe sometimes was too honest and that’s what basically pissed Jon off. Remember the public fight on an entertainment show? Hailey was being brutally honest and Jon walked out because he wasn’t happy about that.
I think lilsmom meant the ROL story and it wouldn’t even occur at least to me that your blog would pay for a story either. It’s not like you’re making any money off the blog. LOL
Oh yes Joy, I forgot all about the insurance pay out he was hopping for. In order for a payout Hailey would have to be prosecuted.~Deborah
/
It was kind of chilling how Heller made the statement that Hailey would be going to jail. It’s such a bullying and callous thing for Jon to do.
I hope Hailey gets her money back sometime and that she fares better in her future relationships.
Great interview. I enjoyed it and I will be reading Hailey’s book
Ok. Joy. I wasn’t quite sure. Lol
LOL @ HUh, & Ditto
I don’t have any knowledge of Hailey ever lying. True she repeated some things Jon told her that were not the truth but she had no way of knowing he was feeding her lies.
I would never say she didn’t turn me off when she was under Jon’s spell, She did!!!
But I agree with Joy, if anything Hailey is brutally honest, with herself and others. In some circles it could seem tacky but IMO she’s still young enough to get away with it.
Look how the haterz turned on her, for the same reason some of us embraced her. She took a long look at what was in her life and told the truth!!!
I don’t think I ever said it Pam, great interview!!!
Joy, Im so skeptical of all these hanger on people “invading Kate”. I think(IMO) Hailey Jon and Erin would go to any lengths to stay in the public eyes. Maybe it’s not a conspiracy but Hailey is still using the G name to stay in the press. And it’s not right. I am in complete admiration for those 8 kids and mom. Kate seems to be a tough(and I mean that in the mom way) and very loving mom. I admire her tremendously. Maybe its time to give “THEM”aka ROL,TMZ ETC… a rest? It seems when filming is on hiatus that may be what Kate wants?jmo
ITA Great interview and I also will be looking forward to reading her book.
Thanks Deborah !
Thanks Joy.
If I understood correctly Hailey was asked by the ladies here for a interview a couple years ago. She wasn’t ready to tell her story at the time. Now she was ready is all.
I don’t see in anyway how this could be hurtful to the children and Kate. Also this is a Gosselin blog. None of the ladies or readers here would do anything to Kate and her family that is hurtful.
No! I never meant IW paid for that Hailey interview! HUH?! I meant the video on ROL! I watched the video and cant help but relate the two. Sorry! Really. I read alot on SW/IW and sometimes check in on the insanity at ROL. Not enough time in a day! I am clearly imperfect. Too imperfect for here!
I’m sorry lilsmom, I don’t think I understood what you meant. I don’t want to run you off.
Well I am imperfect also so I was thinking that maybe you thought we paid for this interview. I also apologize if I said something wrong.
.
I am pretty sure that Jon had nothing to do with the video that Hailey made with ROL. I have also seen Hailey tweet over the last couple of months or so that she did not want to talk about Jon and she needed to move on. But, I think losing $200,000 is a tough pill to swallow and it gets to her at times.
I think (MO) Hailey allowed her long awaited IW inverview knowing her video would be shown on ROL the same day. She had to have gotten paid for that ROL video. SOO… she’s still making money off the G’s. and maybe with one of the G’s thats hard up for cash and trying to pay her back? Just an opionion… This whole story is insane and a shame.
Weirder things have happened! Correct me if I’m wrong! JMO!
lilsmom,
No one is perfect here. Many support all working Moms here.
If Hailey has an ax to grind with Jon , it’s her ax. I’m sure Kate is well aware of all of this. If Jon would have paid her back the money, I don’t think Hailey would ever bring Jon’s name up in the media again. This is going to be just another blurp in Jon’s life that the kids will read about. If Jon was woried about what his children will see in the future, they will see all sides of both parents, good and bad and that is the sad thing.
Hope you come and post here.
Great interview Pam.
Could be but I never gave Hailey a date we would publish this interview. I told her we needed time to write it up and I just so happened to finish it last night and I posted it. There was no coordination on our part and Hailey did not ask me a date that we were going to post it. We are very small potatoes and no one picked up this interview. ROL is the big guns and everyone picked up that story. I am also very sure that ROL paid for the video.
lilsmom,
Yes, her story on ROL and here on the same day could be related, but I doubt that IW knew anything about the ROL story. It might be insane to some, but 200 hundred thousand dollars is a lot of coin. I don’t think she is out to hurt Kate and the kids, because she came out and defended them on TV. Her message was to Jon, and something he seems to ignore when someone asks him about the whole situation. I hope Jon can get this taken care of quickly and it will move out of the press.
I do agree lilsmom, that Hailey has a big push going on right now with her new blog, ROL, our interview. I guess she is doing a little PR for herself. I also agree that the whole story is insane and we have taken a part in that insanity.
200,000 bucks and being set up for a felony, Heller said she was lookin’ at five years in prison all this was done by a guy she was in love with, all this was done to her and more because she refused to believe him and called him out on his lies!!!
I think of her rent money that he pocketed, the list goes on and on.
He was burning her at every turn all the while telling her he loved her for the soul reason he wasn’t finished burning yet. When he saw he wasn’t going to get anything more from her he set her up for prison.
I don’t think I could just quietly get over it either.
I don’t know why anyone would think that Hailey story is insane. I’m a little surprised by that. If maybe it had only been Jon that had accused Hailey of the “break in” maybe one could question it but since the police, an insurance company, and especially Heller were all involved I sure wouldn’t think it was a joke or the least bit funny. First off I would want my name cleared and I think the way Hailey handled talking to the employees at the apartment building was a better way to handle it than to just do an interview and ask each one what they thought. Hailey is also letting other people give their opinions of Jon at the time and they have nothing to gain but just giving their opinions when Hailey asked or they told her what they thought of Jon. We all saw how arrogant he was at that time so it’s easy to see how he might have offended some people at that time especially seeing as how he had this image of himself that he was more popular than Michael Jackson of all people. Now that was insane in my opinion. How anyone could possibly come up with that idea was a few bricks short that’s for sure. I also in my opinion think that Hailey wants to remind Jon from time to time that he still owes her the money and she isn’t going to just disappear into thin air like he might want her to. Hailey did know how to stand up to Jon and stand up for herself which I think she is still doing. Her blog so far doesn’t look like it’s intended to be a money maker and just a fun place to let off her energy. Since IW didn’t tell her when the story was going to run it could possibly be just a coincidence that her ROL story was just that, a coincidence. Not everything is a conspiracy and coincidences happen all the time. Hailey did tweet that she had made a video and was going to post it when she was finished with it. I would fight tooth and nails for my reputation too especially from such serious charges. I would also fight for a large loan I made to be paid back.
As in most cases Joy ITA!!!
LOL
Yeah, it didn’t come from some source, it came from the doorman where they lived. There was no hearsay it came from someone who had contact with Jon. He was wayyy cool at that time in his life and the doorman said he scared him. Not some source!!!
Pam, I can’t imagine trying to capture Hailey in words! Bang-up job!
I imagine it’s been quite a year plus for ALL the Glassman family. Lots of poor choices to go around. What does give me pause…that Kate owes her/them any public acknowledgement beyond what obviously continued in PRIVATE after that gift of surgery. To think Jon had NO place to go when he was tossed out by Kate but the Glassman’s? Oh do I ever suspect that Jon KNEW exactly where there was a ‘silver lining’ of tlc & opportunity! I do think Hailey does have a story to tell, as I believe Jon’s life coach, Sylvia Lafair, is well aware of this being so. $200k is a hefty sum that I believe has 4 yrs. before it becomes a moot point. While a tell-all book is smarmy…it just may be the only vehicle left for Hailey to get something monetary back!
Something tells me that Hailey Glassman may just be an example that handed a lemon, one can make lemonade. I like her attitude, but I do hope her hardy partying is NOT the norm! One ‘Snooki’ is one too many.
LOL…..HB…..”One ‘Snooki’ is one too many. I couldn’t agree more!!
Good for Hailey, sounds like she has exciting high energy employment and from her ROL video I can see she has the high energy to make it work for her. Shes young and having fun and you can add me to the list of people who will buy a copy of her book.
That court of public opinion that Heller was so sure would find Jons behavior acceptable failed him but I think Hailey is doing very well in it.
I personally am not sure I’d ever forget someone trying to frame me, especially if it was someone who had $200,000. of my money . I hope she lets her lawyers handle that and is able to continue on her way to a happy successful life.
HB,
To think Jon had NO place to go when he was tossed out by Kate but the Glassman’s?
.
I agree. Bad decision all the way around.
.
I get the feeling that if Jon had paid Hailey back, Hailey would still not be talking about Jon. I think initially there was a lot of anger about the betrayal and cheating but now it is all about the money and being duped.
Pam and HB the fact that Jon had NO place to go after he moved out of the house except the Glassmans does make one wonder if Jon has ANY family support at all. As much as the anti Kate people keep trying to spout that Kate has no friends or family (don’t believe that’s true) and yet they always fail to mention that Jon doesn’t have family or friends to turn to. Where is Jon’s mother, brothers and these supposed friends who claim they have known him for 15 years when it comes to interviewing Jon’s “friends”? No suprise that one of Jon’s friends is the bartender at Legends. Yes Jon did move in for a brief time with one of his brothers after he left Utah or should we say got kicked out. Didn’t last long as Jon was also kicked to the curb by his brother. So why is it they fail to mention that Jon doesn’t seem to have support from his family or real friends besides his neighborhood bartender?
IMO Jon went to the Glassman’s home to purposely get a dig at Kate~
There were many other places he could of chosen to stay.
I wonder if Hailey will explain that in more detail in her up-coming book?
Oh and BTW Happy St Patrick’s Day everyone!
How can a grown man with major dollars move intoJon was not broke when he moved in with the Glassman family. I am sure Jon had somewhere to go other than the Glassman’s home. Jon had enough money to live on his own. IMO Jon deliberately asked to stay with the Glassman family with the intention of hooking up with Hailey. Jon knew exactly what he was doing.
If I were Hailey, I would have not loaned him the money. Jon would have gone to jail and Kate would have to figure out how to pay her bills. I’d like to know what did Jon do with the paycheck from TLC, the $50,000 he extorted from Kate in September ’09 and the $235,000 he looted from his children’s bank account in October ’09 that was specifically set up for his children’s well being. Also, Jon withdrew $22,500 in October ’09
Just thought about Jon and money during September through October 2009.
Per Hailey, Jon extorted $50,000 from Kate in September.
In October, Jon looted $235,000 from a bank account exclusively for his children’s well being and household expenses.
In October, Jon showed Mary Hart on Entertainment Tonight and Lara Spencer on The Insider his an Oct ’09 bank statement from his personal account showing a $23,500 withdrawal.
In November 2009 Jon borrowed $200,000 from Hailey with.no intention of paying her back.
In addition to all of the above, Jon was pocketing Hailey’s half of the rent ($2,500%.for a few months
That is a grand total of $517,500 tax free money!
Really ms Goody WTH did he do with that money?
Was he also buying high priced NY hookers? ~LOL
When it pertains to Jon nothing would shock me at this point.
Ms Goody,
Wasn’t he ordered to put the large amount back into the account. I wonder how much it cost Kate to get rid of him. I think she had to buy his share out of the house.
The thing I always wondered about Jon moving in with the Glassmans was why didn’t he go to his own family, like his Mom or brothers? Somewhere near his kids. The Glassmans are in long island, no?
And besides if Kate did kick him out, why the heck didn’t he say I am not going unless I have enough money to buy my own place….
or for that matter why didn’t he go to the old house that was sitting there empty.
I dont know but it kinda seems like he was just trying to sponge off the rich folks?
Pattypie that is the very question I wondered too. They had another home just sitting there so why didn’t Jon move in there? Ok maybe it was for sale but he could have stayed there until it was sold. Then he would have had a good place for the kids AND the dogs since he whined about them going back to the breeder for awhile. If he cared that much he would have done that. It only makes sense.
Jon wanted sympathy and IMO he got it by acting like he had no where to go or stay other then the Doctor who did Kate’s Tummy tuck.
Jon is the one who destroyed their trust and when he realized Kate wasn’t going to accept his excuses he went out to turn the tables on Kate in every way he could.
Pattypie,
Jon was moving up, leaving Kate and their children in the dust. He wanted his own fame and money to spend how he wanted to. I also have wondered where his family is—maybe they tried to help him and Jon wanted no part of it.
I don’t mean to beat a dead horse. I know I commented earlier about Jon spending a half million dollars in 3 months with nothing to show for it. I am just totally shocked!
I am wondering what did Jon do with the $50,000 Hailey said he extorted ftom Kate.
Jon stopped TLC from filming and then he takes $235,000 from the household account. What did Jon do with $235,000?
Jon showed Mary Hart & Lara Spencer his October ’09 bank statement documenting a $22,500 withdrawal. What was that used for?
Jon did borrow $200,000 from Hailey and he gave the court $180,000 and pocketed $20,000.
And to top it off Jon takes Hailey’s half of the rent ($2,500) and puts it in his pocket instead of paying the rent.
When the marital assets were divided Jon had to pay the remaining balance of $55,000 owed to Kate when he stole $235,000 and paid back 180,000. Also, I remember an attorney that had initially represented Jon, stating he would do some type of legal process to collect $43,000 from Jon’s share of the divided marital assets BEFORE Jon was issued a check!
Then Jon is gone for weeks with law student Morgan Christie living with her at her wealthy parents’ homes in Park City, UT and Santa Barbara, CA. He then returns to PA broke and sleeping on his brother’s couch.
Something ain’t right in Denmark! Based on the aforementioned, no judge in his/her right mind would award Jon custody of eight children, let alone be responsible to pay the bills.
I am done now.
Jon was ordered to replace all of the $235,000 he stole. Jon gave the court $180,000, who handed to Kate. Upon their divorce when their marital assets were.divided, Kate received the remaining $55,000 from Jon’s portion of their former assets.
I don’t see a dead horse? ~LOL
I am curious also MsGoody, what could he of possibly done with all that money?
Hailey is a Jersey girl – thru’ & thru’! Do I think she is over Jon Gosselin? Yes! This gal is coming out w. both barrels blasting. While I’d be her parent in hiding…she’s had enough time to plan her last hurrah w. her screed! She may be a young twit, but I sense she’s smart like a fox! She has/had a good lawyer & by now one would hope there is method to her madness. I don’t think she’d mention snowboarding…the Hamptons…tennis w/o a direct swipe at Jon’s hoity-toity dreamin’. (From someone who lived in the Hamptons for 20+ summers…that crowd lives in the potato fields.)
Beth Carson has gotten a lot of flak, but does anyone remember Jon being asked if he was still friends w. them, & his reply was ‘he talks to Bob daily’? (Their eldest daughter is Hailey’s age!) When I heard Jon’s answer to this question…all I could think of…PHEW, aren’t the Carsons lucky he’s at Sundance w. Morgan – #4 (or were there more?)!!!
MsGoody,
I wonder about all the money, too. It’s so sad to me. Really sad. I wish Jon bought a restaraunt or a McDonald’s (or a Taco Bell!) as someone here suggested. He’d be set. Oh well, it’s not for me to tell him what to do with his money (or he’d have a home with a yard instead of a luxurty apartment, lol.)
I think he expected to keep raking in the money because he was so “hot” in the tabloids.
Haily is a pathetic little gold digger who just happened to pick someone who couldn’t fulfill her dreams.
Haily needs to focus on being a responsible adult in life and stop living off mommy and daddy and running around acting like the loser party girl she is. Even this photo is representative of what she’s all about. She is shallow an uninspiring, looking for fame and fortune by any means that does not involve real work.
Really, who gave You all that info?? If it’s from Jon and Hailey, you were played. If Jon owes that money to H and and her family, what happened to her taking him to court? What girlfriends did Jon pay off? See, you threw lots out, without facts.
You are so worng, it’s mindblowing! First off the media caught Jon out with Deanna Hummel LONG before Hailey entered the picture.
All ‘monkey’ business for a very fertile imagination & a rather wacked out wanna-be attention seeker. The saga in re. to the Neild family & Dr. Glassman are a dead giveaway. WRONG to the max!
/
Steve Neild is & has always been the consumate professional businessman, husband & father.
/
Dr. Glassman was/is a noted surgeon whose WIFE appealed to him to offer his services to Kate. Both Kate & Jon remained friends w. the Glassmans. The nexus of ‘additional work’ was the link to Jon’s hair plugs.
Monkey: When were you in Kate and Steve’s bedroom? What date? Where? Facts and photos, please. Are you Hailey? Who else but you or your parents would care if Kate thought you were a home-wrecker or not? Old news for everyone except for someone very hurt by the past events. I am sorry that you were hurt and lost your money.
I never thought of Hailey as being a homewrecker, Just way to young for the likes of Jon.
She’s growing into a fine person IMO.
Jon was the homewrecker in this scenario.
