Kate Gosselin is single and ready to mingle!

Monday morning on NBC's Today Show, the divorced mother of eight said she's "definitely ready to start dating."

"I think there's a lot of obstacles for me," the 36-year-old admitted. "But in all honesty, I've talked to my best friend and said wouldn't it be great if she could go around the country and collect suitable people because the odds of me sort of bumping into someone are rare."

Why does the Kate Plus Eight star, who divorced Jon Gosselin in 2009, think it's "rare" that she'll happen upon her perfect man in her day-to-day life? "I have eight kids," she said. "I have a crazy work schedule. I'm known... I am ready to start dating, but it's sort of daunting."

Gosselin said her children -- 10-year-old twins Cara and Mady, and 7-year-old septuplets Alexis, Hannah, Aaden, Collin, Leah and Joel -- are hopeful for a step-father. They're "just begging on a daily basis for me to get married again," she said. "They bring it up all the time, and I'm like, 'I don't... I'm not dating anyone.'"

    I always stuck up for her, but she has changed. I am liking her less. he is quite full of herself. Jon is a huge skank, so she can hardly do worse.

    Maybe the kids can find that witch a warlock to marry.

  • August 08, 2011 - 6:48pm Hayde Alba Harris

    Please don't give her any more publicity. I want her to fade away never to be heard from publicly again!

  • August 08, 2011 - 6:31pm Aimee Mullen

    Why shouldnt she have a husband again? everyone deserves to be happy and with a ex husband like john, you would have to be in control he was a more-on!

  • August 08, 2011 - 6:05pm Krista Timm

    I don't think she should get married again. who would want to put up with her? she is a control freak.

  • August 08, 2011 - 6:03pm Ann Corneli

    I wish her luck.

    Now what man would want that gang of kids and a big mouth for a wife. Get over yourself. You already made a fool out of yourself on at the cupcake. If you snapped your fingers at me like you did your lover/bodyguard I would have knocked you up side the head

    @pamela, you don't have to read about it either, but you did, so chances are you'll watch and complain then too. but you're right, she can do whatever she wants. mistakes were made, she's still allowed to be happy. she's not the first person to divorce and move on.

  • August 08, 2011 - 5:42pm Stefanie Trump-Ludwig

    And we, the residents of Reading, PA are begging you to pack your bags and move far, far, far away~!

  • August 08, 2011 - 5:39pm Pamela Jayson

    She can do whatever she wants as long as I don't have to watch it.

  • August 08, 2011 - 5:31pm Monique Aimee Dyer

    Hahahahaha that will be the day!

  • August 08, 2011 - 5:20pm Shannon Armstrong Adams
