LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Kristin Cavallari is "dipping her toes back in the dating pool" mere weeks after she split from TikTok star Mark Estes in September, but the reality TV star has a lot more dating rules this time.

The 37-year-old dated Estes, 13 years her junior, for about seven months before parting ways in September. She confirmed the split during her appearance on 'Call Her Daddy' host Alex Cooper's Unwell tour stop in Austin, Texas. 



 

Kristin Cavallari reveals 'big people in Hollywood' hit on her

Speaking about her possibility of returning to the dating scene, Kristin Cavallari said on the latest episode of her 'Let's Be Honest' podcast, "Here's my thing. I think I'm just so f*****g over Hollywood in general."

She added, "I'm having people reach out to me right now, and I've had a couple, like, big people in Hollywood reach out to me... But there is nothing in me that wants to go out with these people. Whereas three years ago, I would have been like, 'Okay. Yeah.'" 

However, Cavallari—who was once married to Jay Cutler and had relationships with Nick Zano, Nick Lachey, Matt Leinart, Chase Rice, and James Dye—did not identify the famous individuals who are interested in dining with her, as per Daily Mail.

Cavallari has previously maintained that there was no issue with her and Estes' 13-year age difference. However, she is now eager to date a person of her own age and, ideally, one who is also less famous.

"I wouldn't say it's a deal breaker, but I am not looking to date anyone in entertainment. And, like, I will never date anyone from the DMs ever again because it attracts the wrong type of guy," admitted the 'Laguna Beach' star.

Cavallari did, however, mention her previous separation in the episode. She admitted that she "was sad about my last breakup," prompting her co-host, Justin Anderson, to say that it was the "most sad" he had ever seen her, to which Cavallari agreed.

Kristin Cavallari says her 'next boyfriend is gonna be my next husband'

The Uncommon James founder, who shares sons, Camden, 12, and Jaxon, 10, and daughter, Saylor, 8, with ex-husband, Jay Cutler, is prepared to get hitched again.

"I'm not kidding, though. I'm telling you right now... My next boyfriend is gonna be my next husband. Okay? I'm already putting that out there. I can't keep dating. Like, I am dating, but, like, I can't keep doing it," shared Cavallari.

The 'Laguna Beach' alum further teased followers with some information about a man she has been casually dating for the past several weeks after outlining some of her expectations for future partnerships. She called him "Cody" to protect his anonymity, as per People.

"He's not on social media. He's a businessman, and I love that. That's why I just think, like, moving forward, that's what I need. Not someone who's in the public, someone who has a lot going on," expressed Cavallari.

The 37-year-old went on to state that she "really wants someone older who I can, like, learn and grow from," and that "Cody" is the same age as her but "feels a lot older to me"—in a positive sense. "That's what I'm into."

Kristin Cavallari says she will only date a man who has had a vasectomy

Kristin Cavallari also mentioned that her ideal partner needs to have had a vasectomy because she has no interest in having any more children.

The reality TV star said, "You want to know what else is a dealbreaker for me? I want someone who’s had a vasectomy. I don’t want to have to worry about any of that s**t!"

She informed her friend and co-host, Anderson, "I’m not on birth control. I was on birth control from f*****g 15 until 23."

Cavallari then admitted that men with children are probably going to make up her dating pool. "I think dads are the ones who’ve obviously had vasectomies. Like, no one without kids is going to have a vasectomy," remarked the mother of three, as per Page Six.

The 37-year-old entrepreneur went on to discuss her reasons for wanting to date a "dad," saying she "don’t really have to deal with the day-to-day." She then admitted that a man who is "44, successful, has two kids going off to college … vasectomy" would be her "perfect guy."

However, Cavallari eventually stated, "This is my single era. And like I said, my next boyfriend is my future husband. So I am like, okay, well, we need to have some more fun."
