Designer Christian Audigier says his new pal Jon Gosselin is "not the same as he was."

The Ed Hardy frontman was recently photographed in Saint-Tropez with the "Jon & Kate Plus 8" dad and his love interest Hailey Glassman. "I met the guy for two days to see what he wanted to do as a job," Audigier tells People magazine. "In the beginning it was Jon and Kate, and then the guy came with another girl. He told me, 'I'm going to come with my stylist. I need two tickets for the plane.' So I said, 'no problem.' "

"He is not the same as he was," the designer says of the reality star. "He has a more complicated life now. He has all of those kids and a girlfriend and ex-wife."
