Brooke Burke Charvet is either inspiring or shaming all other 40-year-old moms out there.

The actress, model and co-host of Dancing With The Stars somehow manages to become hotter with age, as evidenced by this promotional picture for her new line of intimate apparel, loungewear, and sleepwear.

Here's Brooke modeling for intiMINT:

How does Brooke look like that at age 40? Or at any age?

The mother of four makes sure she keeps herself on a rigorous diet, limiting her calorie intake and unhealthy foods, as well making sure to work out.

Diet and exercise ... funny how that works.

Her upcoming collection features lace g-strings, briefs and boy shorts as well as bras, nightgowns, tank tops, robes and more. Which begs the question ...

Brooke Burke: Hottest 40-year-old mother of four ever?

Mother's Day is a wonderful celebration honoring our moms and celebrating motherhood, maternal bonds and the influence of mothers in society in general.

On this 13th day of May, take a look at a 13 popular THG celeb moms (and 13 more who also have kids) in the poll below and vote for your favorite (and least favorite):

Dancing With the Stars co-host Brooke Burke and David Charvet, her longtime partner and fiance, got married last night, according to reports.

The location: On a boat under the stars off the coast of St. Bart's, with their kids. Hard to imagine a more special moment for the couple, both 39.

"We're just at that place, where love is deep and meaningful, and we're feeling very settled," Brooke said of their relationship earlier this year.

Burke began dating Charvet, who starred on Baywatch and the original Melrose Place, in 2005. He proposed to her just one year later, in 2006.

They are parents to daughter Heaven Rain, 4, and son Shaya Braven, 3. Burke has two daughters, Neriah, 11, and Sierra, 9, with ex-husband Garth Fisher.

In an interview with THG earlier this year, Brooke spoke about her "celebrity mom" status and making time for both herself and her relationship with David, despite challenges posed by balancing her career and four kids.

It's a busy life, but no doubt, it seems like it couldn't be going better for her. Congratulations to the newlyweds and to the entire family!

When THG spoke with Brooke Burke exclusively last week, she summed up tonight's Dancing With the Stars finals as the most evenly-matched in years.

She echoed that sentiment today in a chat with People.

Hines Ward, Chelsea Kane and Kirstie Alley square off tonight for all the marbles. Like the rest of us, Brooke has no idea who's considered the favorite.

Hines Ward and Kym Johnson aren't just talented, they're "infectious, he's lovable, he's emotionally connected, he's fun to watch," says the Season 7 champ.

In addition, he's got a big fan base that should help him out. As does Kirstie Alley, who no one counts out right now. "What's not to love?" asks Burke.

"She is brave and brutally honest. She surprised everybody. She's got incredible rhythm. Nobody had any idea that she'd be such a great dancer."

Kane, meanwhile, is "just adorable" and "a phenomenal dancer, technically," says Burke, noting that Mark Ballas is known for strong choreography.

In the end, it's anyone's Mirror Ball as the most entertaining season in years winds down with the final routines tonight and the results tomorrow.

Who do you think will win Dancing With the Stars?

THG was fortunate enough to speak with Dancing With the Stars co-host Brooke Burke exclusively this week about the 12th season of the hit ABC competition.

Burke won DWTS a few years ago before assuming her MC'ing duties alongside Tom Bergeron, a job she loves and says she'll continue as long as she can.

Brooke says this season's field has been the most even in the show's history and that the Mirror Ball is totally up for grabs on next week's DWTS finale.

The celebrity mom also talked at length about the challenges and rewards of raising her four kids and the importance of moms taking care of themselves.

Watch our interview with Brooke below:

Brooke Burke Interview

Brooke Burke has made a living out of posing nude.

She may have done some other stuff here and there, but her penchant for posing in her birthday suit has sustained the career of this Dancing with the Stars host. Therefore, should we really be surprised that Burke is baring it all once again, this time on the cover of her aptly-titled memoir, "The Naked Mom?"

Burke is making the media rounds this week, pushing the book on Good Morning America, Live with Regis and Kelly and The Wendy Williams Show. She told Robin Roberts this morning about one of her challenges as a mother of four:

"There are different things I prefer with different children. I love them all madly, but I think as a mother, you love them differently... What I do successfully with one absolutely fails with another one."

That's great and all, but we're curious why anyone on the planet would care what Brooke Burke has to say about parenting. We barely care about her take on dancing.

Fantastic news, fellas: Brooke Burke is returning to Dancing with the Stars.

The seventh season champion, former Playboy centerfold and often nude female has been named the show's new co-host. She'll take over for Samantha Harris and appear alongside Tom Bergeron on season 10, which premieres on March 22.

“She’ll be able to talk to the couples backstage with the perspective of having been there herself,” says Bergeron, who made the announcement this morning on Good Morning America.

Burke has experience behind a microphone. Her previous hosting gigs include the TV shows Wild On, Rock Star: INXS and Rock Star: Supernova.

The new cast of Dancing with the Stars includes such talented celebrities as Kate Gosselin and Jake Pavelka. Who will you be rooting for?

The U.S. presidential election will be decided today. That's a very big deal.

This poll? Not so much.

But we've come up with some great celebrity tickets that we'd love to see run. Tell us which of the following tandems you'd support in a White House bid ...

Who would you vote for?
