The Truth About Kristin Cavallari's Divorce Is More Complicated Than We Knew
It's rare that two worlds collide under the bright lights of Hollywood, but that's exactly what happened when reality star Kristin Cavallari met NFL quarterback Jay Cutler in 2010. For seven years the couple appeared the picture of wedded bliss, though in 2020 they shocked the world with the news that they'd decided to call it quits. Rumors swirled as to the cause of the messy split, but now, the truth is finally out — and it's more scandalous than anyone could've seen coming.
First Impression?
Of course, the pair's beginnings didn't exactly seem like the makings of a fairy tale. Jay actually contacted Kristin's publicist in the hope flying the reality star out to Chicago for a date back in 2010 — Kristin, however, had never heard of him.
Not Exactly Tom Brady
"I had to Google him," Kristin told the A Drink With podcast in 2013. "I was in the middle of filming The Hills, so I was like, 'I don’t want a boyfriend in Chicago' and passed on it."
Giving Love A Chance
But as luck would have it, Kristin wound up at a Chicago Bears preseason game with her mom just a year later. Remembering Jay's invitation, she decided to meet him after the game — safe to say, it was love at first sight.
Moving Fast
The couple made their public debut at a gala screening of Jake Gyllenhaal's Source Code in 2011, though it wasn't long before the pair felt ready to take the next step. Just a month after appearing on the red carpet together, Kristin and Jay announced they were engaged!
