Jon Gosselin and the anti-Kate Gosselin book author have a friendship that goes back nearly four years, and in an exclusive interview with Breaking Celebrity News, Jon's ex-girlfriend says the two were so close that they used to set up photo-ops and split the money!

Author Robert Hoffman has been linked to Jon ever since scandalous accusations against Kate emerged in his book Kate Gosselin: How She Fooled The World — and it was only further fueled once text messages were revealed exclusively by Breaking Celebrity News linking Jon and Rob in a scheme to steal Kate's hard drive with her personal journals on it.

And even though Robert posted a scathing letter on his blog the day Breaking Celebrity News published the verified text messages stating he and Jon were "nowhere near close" on October 14, 2009, the date of the texts — Jon's ex Hailey Glassman says he's lying!

"Rob is lying when he says they weren't close enough for Jon to trust him," Hailey said.

"Rob and Jon hatched a plan that they would split the money from all the photos that Rob took and sold of us. Like the kissing photos; they told me a picture of Jon and I kissing would get mega money and I didn't really care so I agreed. Then we all went to lunch, hung out and took more photos."
