Hailey Glassman claims she has learned firsthand that Jon Gosselin isn't exactly Honest Abe.

"Sometimes he has trouble with the truth and he will dance and dance around his lies," the Jon & Kate Plus 8 star's girlfriend told The Insider in an interview the entertainment news program will begin airing Thursday, People reported Wednesday.

"He's like Jekyll and Hyde. But I still love him."

In addition, the 22-year-old Glassman said Jon isn't the best boyfriend either.

"He'll call me and take his anger out on me," she told The Insider. "He has 'mantrums.' I shouldn't have to put up with being emotionally abused. I cry and say, 'Why are you so mean to me?'"

Jon and Glassman were first spotted in July vacationing in the French Riviera and he subsequently acknowledged the two were dating less than three weeks after he and Kate Gosselin filed for divorce and the couple publicly announced their separation during a Jon & Kate Plus 8 broadcast.

Glassman first met Jon via her parents, who appeared on Surviving Sextuplets and Twins: One Year Later, a pre-Jon & Kate Plus 8 special which featured Glassman's father, a plastic surgeon, performing a free tummy tuck on Kate.

Kate underwent the surgery to remove excess skin that had resulted from her pregnancies with the couple's twins and sextuplets and subsequently spent several days convalescing at the Glassman family home, where Glassman's mother cared for her. 

Glassman's mother had suggested her husband offer to donate his services after seeing Kate express her frustration about the skin during the couple's initial Surviving Sextuplets and Twins special which had aired in May 2006. 

"I met Jon in a bubble," Glassman told The Insider. "I'd never seen the show. I had no idea."

Glassman said she has been keeping a low profile due about her relatonship with Jon due to the negative media attention she has received -- including a previous report that she was only dating him to "get famous."

"People judge me before they meet me. I get threats everyday," she told The Insider. "I get called a home wrecker and a fat whore. People will stare or point. It gets worse everyday."

While she admits their relationship is "not normal," Glassman said she will still stand by her man -- no matter how much he lies or emotionally abuses her, apparently.

"I don't want to leave him all alone," she told The Insider. "At the end of the day, I love him but I dislike him at times. When I love someone I would never hurt them."

"He was very supportive of her doing the interview," a source close to Jon told People. "He wants her to clear her name."

In addition, the source claims Jon does not dispute her claims that he has recently had a tendency of letting his anger get the best of him.

"He has a lot of on his plate and he gets frustrated but he's supportive of her," the source told People.
