They say there are two sides to every story—though when you're dealing with Jon Gosselin, there tend to be three or four.
So Kate Major, the divorcing reality-TV star's latest love interest, has sat down with E! News to talk about where things stand between her and Gosselin, as well as how they met, what their hookup meant for Hailey Glassman, and the future Major is hoping for with the 32-year-old father of eight.
"I would be lying if I said there wasn't instant chemistry between us," says Major of Gosselin, whom she met earlier this year while she was working as a reporter for Star and was sent to Pennsylvania to cover the unraveling of his 10-year marriage. The two of them went out to dinner the following night.
"Do I regret anything? Not really," Major says, although, since being outed as Gosselin's new gal-pal, she apparently has had some second thoughts.
"Would I do it again? Probably not," she admits to E!
Major also talks about interviewing both Gosselin and his first postmarital squeeze, Hailey Glassman, whom Jon spent a weekend with in St.-Tropez and was rumored to be engaged to less than two weeks before being spotted at a New York restaurant with Major.
As you can imagine, that wasn't the easiest subject for Major to open up about.
She also gives us the lowdown on the current status of her and Jon's relationship.
"Right now, there is no happily ever after," Major reveals. However, "[I was] really, really impressed—and I still am—with the person that he is."
"It is a huge relief to finally talk," Major says. "I haven't been speaking a lot in the past few days because of how crazy everything has been, and I'm ready to talk."
"I'm here to tell my side of the story."
Watch the entire interview with Kate Major exclusively on E! News this week, beginning Wednesday, Aug. 5, at 7 p.m. & 11:30 p.m., and running through Friday, Aug. 7.
