Jan. 1 2010, Published 5:49 a.m. ET
A close friend of Hailey Glassman’s has confided to RadarOnline.com that Hailey Glassman is currently ‘very scared’ of her former Jon & Kate Plus 8 reality boyfriend Jon Gosselin.
The couple’s relationship has gone wildly off the rails in recent weeks with Glassman filing a harassment complaint against Gosselin with the NYPD on December 20, 2009, after she claimed he pushed her into a wall in the Manhattan apartment that they were sharing at the time.

The reality dad believes that Glassman trashed the apartment on December 27th damaging his property and leaving a menacing note pinned with a knife – all claims that both Glassman and her lawyer Stephanie Ovadia refute.
Concerned pal Mandy Sassano told RadarOnline.com Online.com: “The situation has gotten totally out of hand and Hailey is now very scared of Jon Gosselin - she just wants him to leave her alone."

“She told me that the attack story is true and that he pinned her to the wall of their apartment after he got into a jealous rage when she was photographed with boxing promoter Damon Feldman.
“Hailey reported Jon to the police and she believes that he is totally trying to set her up and ruin her life now.
“Anybody that knows Hailey will tell you that she is not capable of trashing the apartment that they used to share – it’s just not her style.
“She told me that he never even had the Ming vase that he claims that she smashed inside the place.
“Hailey is totally over the whole relationship and she just wants to move on with her life. Jon is the one who is acting like an idiot and can’t seem to put it behind him.
“She’s now set-up a new apartment in New York but she’s still anxious that he will try and track her down and keep pestering her.

“Apparently, he has a way of finding out where she is through his GPS system and that really freaks her out – it’s time for him to back-off because her friends and family are worried and upset now.”
The former lovers met because Jon’s estranged reality wife Kate Gosselin had undergone a procedure by Glassman’s plastic surgery father Dr. Larry Glassman.
The unlikely lovebirds were then photographed together in the South of France before professing their love on various entertainment shows and moving in together.

But the relationship has now totally unraveled with accusations of violence, theft and criminal damage, being slung by them both.
Mandy Sassano added: “The truth is Hailey just got swept away in the moment and she now realizes that she made a mistake ever getting involved with Jon Gosselin.
“He has manipulated her so many times that she now knows he is somebody that she definitely cannot trust any longer.
“She claims that she gave him an $80,000 loan to re-pay money back into his joint bank account with his wife after he pleaded with Hailey that he could not pay the money and that he feared he might lose his kids as a result.
“I remember one occasion when we were out for a meal with Jon and Hailey and a few other people and he actually had the nerve to use one of Kate’s credit cards to pay for the four of us – that’s the type of person he is.
“Jon appears very reserved and quiet but he can be very devious and likes to use people and the way that he has been acting recently has been totally unstable.
“At this point Hailey wants nothing more to do with him and as a good friend I’m just really concerned that he will not leave her alone.”
