(Cover) - EN Showbiz - Kelly Rutherford has described herself as an up-town stroller mom.

The 42-year-old American actress plays Lily van der Woodsen in hit US television drama Gossip Girl, which also features talented stars such as Blake Lively, Leighton Meester, Ed Westwick and Penn Badgley.

Kelly gets along with everybody on set, although she admits the younger members of the cast make her feel less-than-youthful.

Theyre all running around downtown and Im this up-town stroller mom! she laughed in an interview with the British edition of OK! magazine.

Kelly filed for divorce from German businessman Daniel Giersch in 2008, and is raising the couples two children; a four-old son named Herms Gustaf Daniel Giersch and a 21-month-old daughter called Helena Grace Rutherford Giersch. She admits that she particularly enjoys spending time with actor Matthew Settle, 41, who plays her characters husband Rufus Humphrey in Gossip Girl, as he understands the struggles of parenting.

The more younger cast members socialise together more than myself and Matthew because we both have young children, but Matthew and I will do things together, she added.

The cast really is like a family, though, were really close. (C) Cover Media
