Plot Synopsis

KATE PLUS DATE is a one-hour reality series that follows Kate Gosselin, the well-known mother of multiples, as she embarks on a new chapter in her life: dating! It's been almost 10 years since her divorce, and now that the sextuplets are older and the twins are off to college soon, Kate is ready to find somebody to love. Devoting herself full-time to her eight children has left Kate's dating skills a bit rusty, so she enlists the help of expert matchmakers Rachel DeAlto and Adam LoDolce to guide her through this very new -- and often awkward -- process. They'll help Kate find her perfect match, setting her up on dates with 10 bachelors over the course of the series. The dates are composed of two activities: one that's fun and interactive, and another that's more intimate where the pair can really see if there's a spark. Kate's college-bound twins Mady and Cara are equally invested in finding their mom a partner, providing encouragement and colorful commentary along the way. Throughout the six-part series, viewers follow Kate's journey as she evolves from reserved and cautious to open and invested. While the first few dates are awkward, even "painful" in Kate's words, she eventually learns to trust the process with the support of her matchmakers and daughters. Mady and Cara don't hold anything back when it comes to advising their mom, but ultimately, Kate has the final say. After being wooed by all ten mystery men, she is faced with the difficult decision of choosing just two guys to take on a second date. The pressure is on. From adventurous and challenging encounters to fun and surprising moments, Kate puts it all out there on display: the good, the bad and the awkward! Throughout the process, she lets her guard down and learns a lot about herself and exactly what it's going to take to find everlasting love.
