Kate Gosselin took full advantage of the hot Mexico sun in a bikini while enjoying her 40th birthday in Mexico recently.

"It was comfortable," Gosselin said, regarding her tropical getaway on her show, according to Us Weekly. "It was the relaxation that I needed after that busy trip."

Better yet, Gosselin brought the children along - Cara, Madelyn, Alexis, Hannah, Aaden, Collin, Leah and Joel - for the warm excursion, Us Weekly reported.

Kate was once married to husband Jon Gosselin until they divorced in 2009, according to The Huffington Post.

"We were struggling, then we were doing really well, then it all fell apart, and now we have a so-called 'normal' life," Gosselin said at the time. "They've seen that through it all, we've dealt with it, survived it, and we keep on going."

During the episode, she tells a friend that she is celebrating her birthday with that she wants nothing asked or discussed about her dating life, especially with what she says is five years since she divorced from Jon Gosselin.

"I want people to stop asking me if I'm dating," the "Kate Plus 8" star told a good friend during dinner for her 40th birthday. "I would like that to end."
