   Jon Gosselin’s new girlfriend seems quite a catch, People magazine concludes

As now ex-wife Kate Gosselin is trying to solve the vital dilemma of keeping her hair long or short, Jon Gosselin is looking for love, as we also informed you just days ago. A first step in that direction has already been made, with Jon hooking up with 25-year-old Morgan Christie from Utah. People magazine has already profiled her and, by the looks of it, she’s a real keeper.

According to the magazine, after some thorough investigation, it has emerged that Christie is actually a step up from former flame Hailey Glassman in more ways than one. Not only is she “no dummy,” as People says, having graduated from Emory University and planning to go into law, but she also comes from a “very privileged” family and has a burning passion for fashion. So far, plans are in place to pursue a career in law, but one may never tell and she could also give fashion a try.

“She’s an East Coast transplant: After college, the Greenwich, Conn., native moved west to Santa Barbara, where she worked at a store called Blue Bee and a law firm. She now also spends time in Park City. She’s been engaged: Christie dated Connor Humphreys, also an Emory alum, after graduation, and the two were engaged at the beginning of last year. Though they planned a wedding at the Four Seasons in Santa Barbara, the couple split a few months ago,” People writes in the piece dedicated exclusively to Mr. Gosselin’s new girlfriend.

“Fashion is a passion: Having grown up ‘very privileged,’ according to an old friend, Christie’s wardrobe is to die for: think Herve Leger dresses and Christian Louboutin shoes. She keeps a tight inner circle: The oldest of four, Christie has a close-knit group of girlfriends from the East and spends a lot of time with her family in Park City, even inviting her new boyfriend to join in on the fun, at their dinner at Ruth’s Chris Jan. 10,” the mag further details.

As we were also telling you when rumor of a new woman in Jon’s life emerged, it would seem that things between the two are heating up really fast. Apparently, the former reality dad of 8 has already moved in with his new romantic interest and they are even talking of making of this a permanent thing. New York City has truly left Jon Gosselin broken-hearted, it would seem.
