Star magazine senior reporter Kate Major resigned this morning, citing a conflict of interest between her reporting duties and her relationship with "Jon & Kate Plus 8" star Jon Gosselin, according to Starmagazine.com.

Major was spotted with Gosselin in a New York City restaurant a few days ago and later had dinner in the Hamptons with Jon, Michael Lohan, and Bravo reality star Jill Zarin.

Did Star magazine pay Major to get the inside scoop on Jon? Does Major think her "relationship" with Jon is more important than her job? What's the real story behind this coupling? And what happened to Jon's other girlfriend Hailey Glassman?
