Jon Gosselin, the estranged husband of Kate and father of EIGHT small children has been snapped by the tabloids trotting all over Saint-Tropez, being led by the nose with passé Ed Hardy trendy fashion mogul Christian Audigier and trouble without a cause, new gal pal, Hailey Glassman.

Gosselin, sporting a fetching gut filling out his Ed Hardy t-shirt, was swilling champagne on the yacht of clothing designer Christian Audigier.

As the news of his new squeeze hit the wires, details of Glassman appeared in numerous reports: She has a record, allegedly has a problem with booze, confused sexual preferences and is also an apparent extreme attention whore looking for her own reality TV deal, according to published allegations.

Now Jon Gosselin has arrived back home in Pennsylvania on Wednesday.

People magazine reports that mother Kate was not there, and that a nanny had the children.

Gosselin, 32, made a splash with Glassman, 22, the daughter of Kate's plastic surgeon, and was rumored to be "collaborating" on clothing lines with Audigier.

Glassman was busted for possession of marijuana in college. She was also cited for illegal consumption of an alcoholic beverage in Indiana in April 2007.

People claims that Glassman, a New York City native, is the type of person who "craves attention."
