Mother to eight Kate Gosselin says there's work to be done and while she plays her mom of role first, she is focused on what has to be done for her family.

"This is my job. This is my paycheck, and so this is what I do," Kate said recently in an interview with Ellen Degeneres.

Adding, "It's not the paparazzi. My focus is not what trip I can go on, or what shows I can do as a result of this thing," she said, getting a jab in at estranged husband Jon Gosselin for his recent rumors about hopping on another reality TV show.

"I am a mother first. I will always be a mother, and I would die for my kids if need be," she reassures. "I would never put them in a situation that was dangerous or unsafe for them and like any mother ... there is nothing I would do to put them in danger."

Kate, who's recently been under due stress after having money stolen from Jon and dealing with "stressed out" kids due to the cancellation of the show, talked to Ellen about getting back on her feet and into the dating game.

Kate, who arguably looks more improved since first appearing on reality TV, claims to be a healthy eater and shares the healthy eating with her children. Kate's been spotted exercising with the kids and reports have stirred about her meticulous demands when dining out, but perhaps most popular with the press with Kate's complimentary tummy tuck.

So when Ellen suggested the new-and-improved Kate needed to date again, she empathetically replied, "I have to?"

"The thought has crossed my mind. At some point," she said adding her fear that any relationship would fall under the speculation of the media. For now, Kate treasures what she has - And she's soon hoping to treasure a replacement ring to fill the void of her exiled wedding ring.

On the Ellen show, Kate revealed she's been admiring a ring she described as having "eight, little diamonds surrounded by a mother of pearl", telling Ellen the ring reminds her of her family, her kids.

"It's the symbol of me and the kids together forever," she told Ellen, adding she let the kids in on her want for the ring and they, in turn, were "excited about that."

Showing restraint though Kate revealed the ring won't be coming to her until she gets another job. No news if she's in the market for anything soon but Ellen candidly ask if they kids would "each get one ring with one diamond" to which Kate said, "Absolutely."

"When they get a job."
