A Woman Scorned
I was just informed that Hailey Glassman is proposing to write a book about all the “dirt” from the Gosselin drama. All I can say is “Enough “ and “Where are her parents”?
Hailey is a tragic figure in her own right. No finished education, no real skills, no passion for anything more than vendettas. I simply wonder why she has not moved on in her life? What is holding her “stuck” in continuing to pull of the scab of her minor and short lived relationship?
There are so many class acts on center stage right now, women who have much pain and humiliation that whatever Hailey thinks she experienced. Thank you goes to Sandra Bullock who had the bitter with the better learning of her then husband’s transgressions on the hem of her academy award celebration. Thank you goes to ElinNordegren Woosd who had a marriage plastered on every paper in the world.
Whether you think Hilary Clinton should have stayed with Bill or not, she kept her pain private and they worked out whatever they did as a married couple.
I could go on and on. We are in such a crossroads era in examining close relationships. What is needed now is a deeper understanding of the how and the why relationships get so tangled.
I have begun sorting through my notes from years of sitting with couples, families, and individuals to make as much sense out of intimacy and betrayal as I can. No one has all the answers. I am going to put my thoughts together in a book with a working title of “Don’t Bring It to Life: Breaking the Family Patterns that Limit Intimacy”. It will be the second in a series of what to look for and what to do to change behavior patterns that do not serve you, this book about love and family.
Back to Hailey; I am saddened she is still striving for her few minutes of vacuous fame. It’s a statement of the shallowness of our present day culture that anything she has to say gets headlines anywhere, anytime. Why would anyone, even the tabloids be willing to print her silliness and who knows, even pay her?
If she were my daughter we would have a heart to heart about values, ethics, and getting a life. I hope her parents have that opportunity soon.
Using celebrity for standards is beyond belief! None of these headliners are ‘norms’. (By the way, it’s Hillary not ‘Hilary’.)
Jon Gosselin brought Hailey Glassman to the public attention w. his pronouncement that she was his soul mate & just how much he loathed his ‘yet to be ex-wife’. Jon may be hiding behind you, but I do find it incumbent upon Jon to DEAL w. the Glassmans in a way that would satisfy what HE DID to them as a family. Hailey has every right to do what she is doing! Do I like it? No, but to have you out there fighting what is filthy baggage Jon conveniently hides from… is SAD!
May I also add…Ellen Ross participates in HATE blogs that do nothing but rip Jon’s ex-wife apart, as well as his children. She has also posted insinuations that were less than classy about Kate Gosselin. If that is what Jon & his children need in this delicate period of trying to find a norm…this too is beyond belief!
Jon Gosselin needs more than a ‘life coach’…he needs to start w. a basic 12 step program.
I find this whole Jon Gosselin saga tremendously worrisome for those who do have young families in distress. The biggest tragedy is that this man does not know how to be his own best friend. He relies on others to tell him what to do, when to do it…& how to do it.
Great comment HB and ITA. Sylvia how dare you ask WHERE are Hailey’s parents? Her parents were used and abused by Jon Gosselin also, and Hailey is an ADULT who was abused by Jon in every way imaginable. He not only took money from her but Jon tried to DESTROY Hailey in every way he could, just as he still does to his ex wife, So if you are going to get on anyone about moving on, you should TALK to Jon.
WHEN is Jon going to let go of Kate???
What about Jon’s lie when he told the NYPD that Hailey broke his family heirloom vase and trashed his apartment and stole things????
Jon should NOT be going on radio shows trashing his ex wife, Jon should stop LYING, and he needs to stop BLAMING his faults on others.
And I have some more advice for you. If you want a book thats going to sell, why don’t you do a book on FARTS with Jon, at least thats something he has some knowledge about.
I have taken your words about Hailey and applied them to Jon.
Jon is a tragic figure in his own right. No finished education, no real skills, no passion for anything more than vendettas. I simply wonder why he has not moved on in his life?
I also think we can add Kate Gosselin as a class act on center stage. While Jon hides in his bunker/apartment, Kate is hounded by the paps being asked what she thinks about Hailey’s new rant. Don’t forget it was Jon who brought Hailey into the Gosselin family orbit, but it is Kate and the kids who pay the price.
Hi Sylvia, Are you wondering what it was you said in your post to attract three people all talking about Kate Gosselin? Welcome to the Sageway Express. This is a HATE site and this is example of what they do. They sit on the computer all day long keeping an eye out for Gosselin news. They target people who support Jon or appear to have dissed Kate. You are in good company. They have gone after journalists, tv critics, bloggers, child advocates, celebrities – if you dare question the show, Kate or the safety of filming children, they go insane. As evidenced here.
bertha smiley, I do not believe anything anyone asked Sylvia was asked in a hateful manner or insanely? They are valid appropriate questions.
Once again instead of making a point , a Hater is accusing another of the very things they do.
A KATE HATER is known to target people who support KATE.
They have gone after journalists, tv critics, bloggers, child advocates, the children’s school, family members, tv shows, friends and celebrities – if you dare question their Hate for Kate they go insane. As evidenced EVERY WHERE!
Sylvia,
It is obvious from all of your articles about Jon Gosselin you have not kept up with all of his antics since January 2009 and believe all of his lies.
Before you judge the Glassman’s maybe you should think about what Jon did to their family. They allowed him to stay in their home when he separated last May 2009. Below are tweets from Hailey’s mom a few months after Hailey broke up with Jon:
My daughter and I are finally in a great place. We can relax, and enjoy life without “intruders” lying and manipulating us. 2:46 PM Jan 21st via web
Those of you that judge my daughter Hailey have NO idea what she went through. 2:54 PM Jan 21st via web .
Feel like i’ve been in a coma for the last 7 months. Could not believe what was happening to us in our home. 2:52 PM Jan 21st via web .
For the first time in many months i went to lunch with a friend. It will be a long time before i allow anyone into my home with my family. 9:25 PM Jan 22nd via web
If I wrote a book about what happened you would not believe it nor would you be able to put it down. 1,264,286,082,000.00 via web
Gaining my weight back finally. Can’t believe someone could actually make me lose my appetite. 1,268,500,290,000.00 via web
Unless you want to lose all creditbility as a life coach, I suggest you view the video interviews Jon has done. He is making you look very silly since those videos prove you are repeating his lies.
Lovely comments ladies. It is so refreshing how you come in en masse to tell Sylvia “how dare” she do this, and “unless she wants to lose all credibility as a life coach” she will do that, and “before she judges” she should do this other thing. And what a great idea, her writing a book with Jon about Farts. You women are so classy. You haven’t answered the question. What does her post have to do with Kate Gosselin? Perhaps your zeal to defend Kate has stretched the boundaries of sanity?
One extremely “class act” you failed to mention………KATE GOSSELIN
Well said, Ms. Lafair and Bertha Smiley. These women have stepped far beyond what they initially stated as a goal of supporting a single mother of eight — they now publish various blogs of HATE directed at the FATHER of these same children in question. The fact that this blog post has nothing whatsoever to do with Kate Gosselin, no longer matters. It is (incongruously) an assault on Kate simply because it is supportive of Jon Gosselin.
They have published a multitude of libelous commentary on the blogspot based HATE blog run by the poster-alias sage, directed at Sylvia Lafair, for nothing more than the fact that Jon Gosselin is her client. Ms. Lafair would be best advised to take these comments for what they are: a baseless attack on her both professionally and personally, spearheaded by a group who’ve become rabid in their quest to target and silence anyone and everyone who dares NOT to support Kate Gosselin – a reality tv persona who they actually know nothing about, outside of an edited reality show, which in all likelihood is as scripted as Saturday Night Live. But not to worry, because they know the real kate gosselin.
I wonder if they (those here to educate the writer of this blog post) realize how above and beyond insanely obsessed they sound. How or why, would ANYONE know, and have at their fingertips, “twitter” messages from many months ago that were neither sent TO them or FROM them?
Funny how you idiots are now SUPPORTING Hailey. Yet, just a few years ago, you hated her. But since she jumped on the BASH JON bandwagon, somehow, you now SUPPORT HAILEY.
Hailey is a pot smoking, home wreaking, apartment breaking/looting attention whore. She HAS no credibility. She just wants to profit from the Gosselins. She is no better than Kate.
Why the hell would anyone defend Hailey? She’s now going to write a book about what? Go ahead and write that book. No one will buy it. Just like the stupid book Kate wrote.
I’m sorry the Kate sheeple are bothering you so much Sylvia. They have no minds or lives of their own and have to bother anyone who actually sticks up for Jon. They trash Ellen, Jodie and Kevin repeatedly and have no shame.
Ha! You talk about class acts. When had Jon shown any class? You praise several women for keeping their pain private, but here you are publicly blogging for Jon who is obviously hiding behind your skirt. Was he keeping it private in the interview with Rabbi Shmuley? You may call their relationship minor, but Jon didn’t. He declared Hailey his soul mate. Perhaps, Hailey is stuck because Jon owes her money. Jon using his life coach to act “holier than thou” isn’t going to make his problems go away or give the public a better impression of him. If I were you, Ms. Lafair, I’d be worried what it’s doing to my reputation to work for Jon Gosselin.
Look, if Jon owes her money, you take it too court. You don’t write stupid book about it.
When has Jon shown class? How about the last 4 months? Has Jon open his mouth? Nope. He kept quiet. The only one talking because her 15mins are over is Hailey.
The kids love Jon and that’s all that matters. Jon joined a leadership program and good for him.
What has Hailey done? Tweet about Jon Gosselin 24/7? Using “googling” Small penis and posting stolen pics she found on Google in her tweets?
While Mother dearest walks around with her boobs hanging out.
getalife, Jon just did a public interview w/Rabbi Shmuley in which he badmouthed Kate. When asked what he would say to her if her heart was open (since the Rabbi must know all about Kate) Jon’s answer was how she should change. No self-reflection there. It’s always someone else’s fault when it comes to Jon. He also twittered that he thought a song which called Kate a “b*tch” was funny, as did Ellen Ross. Class is something Jon knows nothing about.
Why come on a comment board and argue with other posters or personally attack their opinion? I have read various blogs regarding the Gosselins, and there are many blogs solely to hate on Kate.
I think comments here are not necessarily defending Kate but detailing the hypocrisy in the blog regarding Jon. Why is it OK for Jon to still be talking negatively about Kate? I believe thats why Kate was brought into this as well as the comment about Sandra bullock and Elin- Tigers wife as having class. I agree Kate has shown class also. As for Hailey , she is allowed to verbally say whatever she wants about her relationship with Jon, if she writes a book you don’t have to buy it.
I can respect you Ms. Lafair when you give the same respect back to Kate and her children. Why would you post private things that Jon is doing in his life and feel the need to put Hailey down. As a life coach, did your book learning tell you it’s ok to put someone down to try and build someone else up. Maybe Jon should finally step up to the plate and call out the hate sites that are out there that attack Kate and his children. Is Jon going to live in a box the rest of his life and never say anything in defense of his own family? Where is Jon’s family?? Please before you attack another soulmate of Jon’s, maybe you should take the time to listen to the other side of the story.
Kate doesn’t deserve respect, she treats her children and everyone else horribly. Kate Gosselin does not know the meaning of the word “respect”.
get a life——- You seem to have anger issues and and maybe you need to step back. I think everyone has said things that have been hurtful about Jon and kate. Jon needs to get a job doing something, anything!! What growm man who has 8 kids gets to sit on a couch doing nothing everyday.
Hailey is angry, she feels abused like many women in life have experienced. When Jon took all these young gals to his and Kates home, this was wrong. Jon seems to need someone to hang onto, and hopefully his life coach says it’s really ok to be alone for awhile and gets his life together.
Many people support Kate who is raising their children most of the time. It would be wonderful for Jon to get a home big enough for the visists, involved in his kids school life, and stop ausing his body (cigs and booze.
Scran———you don’t deserve respect in life with your hateful comment. You have no idea how Kate is with her kids unless you live in her home.
Actually yes I do, and a lot of people feel the same way I do. She is a hateful woman who only cares about herself and has proven it time and time again. The kids are already starting to turn against her. Jon is the one who loves them and gives them normalcy, something Kate never has given them! SO please take your anger issues elsewhere, snickers. America knows what Kate is truly like and is not stupid.
Jon, in my opinion, is a CHRONIC liar and has a negative personality disorder: passive aggression!
I BELIEVE Hailey Glassman about Jon extorting money and blackmailing Kate! As you say, in her “short lived” relationship she is a woman scorned and needs to move on. Jon stated emphatically Hailey is his soul mate. It a FACT Jon took Hailey to the south of France, bought her a $27,000 ring (as reported by the jeweler himself) and leased or bought her a Mercedes Benz (he is driving the Mercedes Benz now) and lived in an expensive luxury apartment in NEW York city that he and Hailey shared. He cheated on Hailey. Jon tried to get Hailey sent to jail for vandalizing his apartment and stealing items to punish her and collect insurance (the NYPD cleared Hailey). Also, Hailey’s unfinished education is MORE THAN Jon’s high school education. FYI – Bill Gates of Microsoft, the late Dave Thomas of Wendy’s, Mark Walhberg the actor also have unfinished educations.
In my opinion, Hailey is a young adult that can do as she pleases. Just because she has exposed Jon’s extortion and blackmailing efforts against Kate is nothing compared to the all the horrors Jon has exposed to Kate, thereby affecting their children. The horrors I am speaking about are the following: the incessant media/paparazzi hounding of Kate and their kids initialized and brought on by Jon’s womanizing, Jon stating on TV he despises the mother of his kids and he loves Hailey more than he ever loved Kate, Jon lying about the reason he stopped Jon and Kate + 8 (it is not about the welfare of kids), Jon stealing money from a bank account specifically meant for his eight children and their home and lying about it on TV, Jon being a PROVEN liar time and time again, Jon saying Kate not a good parent because she has to be away sometimes to work, Jon mocking Kate, etc.
Why does he think Kate is money hungry and a fame whore when he is pursuing the SAME career in entertainment himself? On Spiffbox.com he list his occupation as a celebrity and his “resume” and bio is on the Internet Movie Database (imdb.com). I guess ALL people that seek careers in TV/film in front of the camera are fame whores AND people that seek careers in TV/film in front of the camera are usually paid big bucks are money hungry.
On Rabbi Schumley’s radio show, the rabbi asked him what does he think about Kate being on the Emmys. Jon’s reply was he thought it was excessive. Kate was invited by Jimmy Fallon directly to participate in the opening performance. Entertainment Tonight (ET) offered Kate a job to interview celebrities at the Emmys, attend the ET Emmy party and co-host one ET show. All of this took place for one week and Kate Gosselin was paid a handsome sum. Answer this: how is that excessive? Since Jon and Kate are both pursuing a career in TV/film wouldn’t they both jump at the opportunity?
When Kate was on Dancing With the Stars (DWTS) Jon said she was an absentee parent. How is a WORKING parent absent? Many parents are required to be away from their families to earn a living. I am a single parent and I have had contracts that required me to travel Monday through Thursday every week for 7 months. Jon Gosselin was AWAY from his children many times for weeks AND he was NOT WORKING. Jon was with a woman or vacationing. It was reported Kate Gosselin earned $500,000 to participate in DWTS. Answer this: would Jon Gosselin consider himself an absentee parent if he had a TV gig that paid him $500,000 for seven weeks?. Did Jon Gosselin consider himself an absentee parent when he was away for weeks at a time from his kids and he was not working?
On Rabbi Schumley’s radio show, Jon said that he dropped off the kids at home with the nanny. He felt they should have stayed with him. Kate DOES NOT want her children sleeping on the floor in a small and cramped one bedroom apartment for extended stays while Jon is in his bedroom having sex with a woman he has known less than six months! Kate DOES WANT her children getting a good night sleep in their comfortable beds and eating meals together at the kitchen table, especially when they have to go to school. Answer this: Jon reported he pays you $10,000 for each life lesson. Since Jon has $10,000 to pay you for each life lesson I assume he has money. So…. how come Jon didn’t get a bigger place and buy beds for his kids?
Why did Jon tweet to make fun of Kate Gosselin in a video made by a rap artist? Why does Jon allow a woman he has known less than six months to tweet the same about the mother of his children? Why does Jon allow ANYONE to have anything to say about his and Kate’s children? The ONLY two people that have anything to do with the Gosselin children is Jon Gosselin and Kate Gosselin!
In the National Enquirer there was a recent article that said that Jon’s children called Ellen Ross, Mom. BULLSHIT! I do not believe that crap! Why didn’t Jon tweet to deny that bullshit story? He tweets to deny everything else.
Jon Gosselin has had his Twitter account for over a year. For almost a year Jon NEVER tweeted about his children. Now, all of a sudden, he tweets about his kids all the time it is sickening. That is phony as hell. Now he wants the public to believe he cares so much about his children. Jon has something brewing in his toxic stew of doo-doo.
I see why Kate does not allow Jon on her property anymore. He is mean spirited, spiteful, cannot be trusted and is toxic to Kate’s spirit and well-being. Recently, Kate stated on her blog that the children had arrived home from seeing their mother and spontaneously/immediately they ran to hug her and tell her they love her and are glad to be back home. Hmmm, I wonder why.
One more thing……………
When Jon and Kate separated and presently, it is Kate that keeps SILENT about Jon and his shenanigans. She NEVER mocks him. In Kate’s mind Jon is last year’s news. Now that’s class!
Kate lies every time she opens her mouth, she is bi-polar and a narcissistic . She needs a shrink pronto.
Sylvia, thank you for your blog. As usual, the REAL haters in this drama that is the Gosselins are the sheeple and they come from Sageway Express. For MsGoody2Shoes, why not write a book? That was so easy to skip right over. And the rest of the Sagers who always come en masse when anyone dares say a nice thing about Jon — typical high school behavior. They can watch a show with Kate being a class A b**ch to her children and overlook it with ‘she has 8 kids’. What is really ridiculous is how they hunt down any Kate non fan site to spew their hatred and defense of Kate, make silly and stupid excuses for behavior that we SAW with our own eyes and start new blogs to spew more hatred. YET, they claim to be taking the high road. It’s always interesting to see what their next explanation for her horrible behavior will be. Twist and bend. And when that fails, blame Jon.
YOU should have a heart to heart to JON GROSSELIN about values, ethics, and getting a life. I hope his mother has that opportunity soon.
Yeah, I know…….
Kate is horrible and Jon is a saint.
Jon and Kate both seek careers in TV/film in front of the camera. It is okay for Jon to advance his career, but not Kate!
It is only fair to say enough to Jon and ask him the same questions. Because I am saddened he is still striving for his few minutes of vacuous fame. It’s a statement of the shallowness of our present day culture that anything he has to say gets headlines anywhere, anytime. Why would anyone, even the tabloids be willing to print his silliness and who knows, even pay him?
If he was your son? would you have a heart to heart about values, ethics, and getting a life. Will his parents talk to him? Will Jon’s parents have that opportunity soon?
Sheeple from ZiggyFlo’s sitte, SageWay and ROL have made it their lives to slam Jon as much as possible and I’ve never seen anything so pathetic as that. Stop acting like Jon dumped you.
Poor Scrantastic needs therapy herself. There are no as she calls us “sheeple” that wish harm on Jon Gosselin. We would be thrilled if we saw any sign of him pulling himself together and become a responsible man. So far there have been no signs of that. As a matter of fact it appears he is sliding backwards. We all hope and pray that for the children’s sake that Jon just grows up and accepts the fact he is no longer a media star and he needs to find other avenues for employment. He needs to quit depending on all these young women he keeps jumping from one to another and starts to rely on himself. We would all be thrilled to death if Jon just grew up.
I don’t need therapy. I’m not the only one who feels the same way. Don’t diagnose me when you don’t know anything, it’s not my fault Kate refuses to be a Mom for her kids.
America is sick of Katie Irene and her lies, it’s as simple as that.
Coo koo, Momsby, Dr, Shawn and all the other Sagens have nothing in their life but their cause. Defend Kate Gosselin no matter what. The woman could eat a live kitten on camera and her fans would say, “she was hungry, the kitten was annoying, she’s got 8, countem, 8 kids.”
Miss Goodie Two Shoes, do you have a life of your own? You are WAY TOO invested in this woman who would spit on you before she’d say hello. I think you need help. Maybe Dr. Shawn can give you a therapy session.
Hailey joined the hate blogs against Kate, while all the time she defended Kate as a great Mom. She is sending a message to Jon, let me hate on your kids awhile. Shame on her, but shame on Jon for oweing her money.
I truly hope for the sake of the children that Jon decides to do what is right and do it soon. There are far too many men out there doing the same thing as him and the children are suffering. Quit this selfishness and be men already!! These kind of men would do well to chant 20 times every day to themselves “its not all about me”, so that maybe their subconcious can help them make the right choices.
