"I just like jump in the deep end of everything I do," the mom-of-three told her longtime best friends Erin and Sara Foster on their You're Doing Fine... Just Keep Going podcast.

Despite Kate's closest friends and family thinking she was "crazy" to want to "get married and be monogamous" at such a young age, Kate admitted she was "madly in love".

She explained: "People thought it was impulsive. But it was more like I was just like, 'You know what? I'm just going to dive right into this. I'm not gonna second guess it. I'm in love with him.

"I'm not gonna pretend like, 'Oh, we should wait.' I'm madly in love and I want to marry him and so I just didn't think twice."

She added: "And I'm kind of still like that except with a little more wisdom under my belt."

Speaking of their time together, Kate credited Chris for teaching her "what it felt like to be unconditionally loved".

"He completely opened that floodgate for me… forever," she said. "No matter how complicated the relationship got at one point, the most important for me was meeting him and him allowing me to understand what that felt like."
