Hilary Duff has been dating hockey player, Mike Comrie for awhile now and her close pal and sister, Haylie Duff approves of the guy.

“I think he’s great and so special,” said big sister Haylie Duff, 22, to People at the Guess/Conde Nast Movies Rock party in L.A. on November 29.

“I love him. He’s a really great guy.”

“He’s good to her,” Haylie Duff said. “That’s all I care about.”

I am actually happy for Hilary. I felt bad for her when her ex went straight to Nicole Richie!!
