Kate continued: “Relationshipsending are painful, and you can choose to carry that or you can choose toreframe it…If Matt and I had a great relationship, we would still be together.”

However, the36-year-old insists that just because they aren't together anymore, it doesn’t mean thatshe and Matt can’t work together to create a loving environment to bring uptheir 4-year-old son Bingham, and Ryder Robinson, Kate’s 11-year-old son from herrelationship with Chris Robinson.

“[Justbecause we aren’t together] doesn’t mean that we can’t rebuild something thatwould be the best for the kids," the Mother's Day star shared. "We said ‘We need to try to create something forthe kids where they feel like they’re gaining something rather than losingsomething.’”

Goldie Hawn's daughter then revealed: “It’s beena seamless transition. Kids just want to see their parents becool. Everybody’s cool; everybody’s good.”

Despitethe breakup, the blonde beauty hasn’t ruled out romance again in the future, but is now looking for someone who will be a permanent fixture in her children’slives. "Being someone who has come from a broken family and has a stepfather,I really benefited from having that very consistent [presence] in mylife," she said. "It's something I am mindful of and want in mylife."
