Things aren't going all that well with the other men either. Apparently a man named Nick stood her up.

\"As I waited for #NoShowNick I couldn’t help but stare at the ceiling ... I was surrounded by cats!\" she shared in another Instagram image.

But at least her camera man Danny kept her company.

In fact, I asked my crew to get some closeups of the cats! 😂 #ThanksDanny #KatePlusDate @tlc

Joey’s cafe was so tiny (but adorable!) that my sound guys had to stand and listen from OUTSIDE the cafe... and it was COLD❄️... such good sports! Don’t worry, we warmed them up with pastries afterwards! 😉 Thanks Mike and Matt! @tlc #KatePlusDate

She added later, \"Watch next weeks #KatePlusDate — I’m NOT KIDDING, you’ll laugh the entire time! It was SO MUCH FUN!\" So something must have gone right.

Bad dates aside, Gosselin is really opening up for the show and growing.

The woman who divorced her ex-husband Jon Gosselin almost a decade ago opened up to her matchmaker about her divorce, saying that \"it hasn’t been pleasant,\" in a preview clip obtained by People magazine.

Mady added this week that the divorce from her dad really gave her \"trust issues.\"

It's been a busy year for Kate and her kids.

Earlier this year, twins Cara and Mady graduated from high school and their mom couldn't be more proud.

#Graduation ..this post is a little delayed (mostly due to post graduation exhaustion lol) but I’m still beaming with pride! It’s hard to believe that Cara and Mady graduated from high school this past weekend ... and are headed off to college in the fall! Where did the time go???? Their Graduation day was such a wonderful day of celebrating THEM and all of their amazing accomplishments! These girls are going places and I can’t wait to see where they end up! Cara and Mady, I love you so very much and I’m just so so proud of YOU! #ProudMom #Graduation #ClassOf2019 #WellDone🎓❤️🎓
