Jill Zarin, who dined with Jon Gosselin in the Hamptons last week, tells Usmagzine.com she feels for the beleaguered reality star.

"He's got a lot of figuring out to do," she said Monday at Animal Fair's 10th Annual Paws For Style in NYC.

But she said the Ed Hardy-loving father of eight - who has been linked to two different girls in two weeks - is not having a mid-life crisis.

"He's only 32, she told Us. "He can't be having a mid-life crisis!"

At her July 22 dinner with Gosselin (and Michael Lohan and Star tabloid reporter Kate Major), Zarin said she told Gosselin "a lot. He spoke to me privately, so I'm going to respect that, but I will say that I did give him the third degree. I wanted to know everything about what it was like to raise eight kids. I wanted to know what it was like when he came home. I wanted to know how many diapers he changed. Who wants to take a guess? 12,000! That's a good item."

After meeting Gosselin, "I would never have thought he had 8 kids," she noted. "He was like a young, fun, loving-life kind of guy who happens to have eight kids that he's got to take care of."

Asked if she believes he's been intimate with Major, Zarin replied, "No." As for 22-year-old Hailey Glassman? "That I don't know," she said. "And I don't care."

    Kate had to harp at Jon to do things because he is so laid back and not a perfectionist like his wife. The kids should be the most important thing in their lives, not the big house the money etc. One day Jon will wake-up and realize what a fool he has been.

    I really don't see what the fuss is about Jon is is NOT good looking . I think they both need to think of the kids and stop thinking of themselves, that stopped when you had kids!! DEAL WITH IT

    I don't care if they divorce, but look who's doing all the work?? I don't see her bed hopping. I don't see her with other men. I see her with the kids, while he has a great time. He is a piss ant, and needs to grow up and take responsibility. Be discreet for goodness sakes. Stop flashing the teeny boppers!!!

    It's really sad on how greed works, you get a TV show, a house, book tours, and it ends up splitting your family apart. If Kate was true she wouldn't treat Jon like some slave,I can see why Jon did what he did, having someone always screams at you, tells you to shut up ,hits him on the show, takes his dignity basically away.You know that none of your spouces would stay in a relatio
