Jon Gosselin is not only still dating the younger Hailey Glassman – daughter of Kate Gosselin’s tummy tuck plastic surgeon – but, he’s also considering converting to Judaism.

Jon told ParentDish that this year, he will celebrate Chanukah with Glassman, and has already immersed himself in Jewish culture. He currently calls himself “half Jewish and half Korean,” and apparently he really means it.

“I just went through Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur and learned about the new year, and every Friday is the Shabbat dinner,” he told ParentDish. “I love challah bread. I’m learning about Jewish food, going to Zabar’s. I love that place. I’m learning about kosher and when not to order a bacon, egg and cheese.”

Though he and Kate Gosselin aren’t yet legally unmarried, it seems Jon has already promoted Glassman to soul mate status.

“I was really nervous dating a Jewish girl. She’s like the best girl ever,” he said to ParentDish. “All my friends are like ‘I’m so jealous’ and I’m like, ‘Stay away, she’s mine.’ She’s the rock of my life. She’s been through hell in the tabloids. They made up lies that she’s a lesbian and she’s doing drugs. We’ve both been through all this turmoil. And we just keep on loving each other.”
