Kristin Cavallari 'frustrated' over ex Jay Cutler’s DUI arrest and feels it 'isn't good look at all'
NASHVILLE, TENNESSEE: Kristin Cavallari is said to be "frustrated" and "disappointed" following her ex-husband Jay Cutler's recent arrest for DUI and gun possession in Tennessee, according to exclusive reports from Daily Mail.
The former NFL quarterback, 41, was taken into custody after being pulled over for allegedly driving under the influence, with two firearms found in his vehicle, including a loaded pistol. He was released from Williamson County Jail after posting a $5,000 bond.
Kristin Cavallari 'frustrated' by ex-husband Jay Cutler's DUI arrest
Sources close to Cavallari, 37, revealed that while the 'Laguna Beach' alum has maintained good terms with Cutler since their 2022 divorce, this incident has left her feeling "disappointed."
One insider shared, "Kristin has been on good terms with him, but this is just disappointing. She will talk about it on her podcast, but she sees it as a black eye and hates that she has to be present for it and answer to it."
The source noted that Cutler is always "going to do what he wants to do," suggesting this played a significant role in the breakdown of their marriage. "That won't change which was a main reason for them breaking up in the first place."
Though Cavallari reportedly thought Cutler was "for the most part okay," this arrest has led to concerns about his state of mind. Another source added, "They are going to have some talks about where his head is at, if he needs help, or if this was just an unfortunate incident."
The source also added, "There is no world where this should have happened in Kristin's mind but now that it has, they will deal with it and she only can hope for the best, but it isn't a good look at all."
Cavallari, who shares three children with Cutler—Camden, 11, Jaxon, 9, and Saylor, 8—is primarily focused on keeping the situation from affecting her family, even though it is "frustrating" to have to deal with the fallout from Cutler's legal troubles.
Jay Cutler's post-NFL struggles
Cutler, who had a 12-season NFL career, including a long stint with the Chicago Bears, reportedly hasn't adjusted well to life after football.
A source explained, "If he could still play, he would do it in a heartbeat, but his post-NFL career hasn’t gone as planned. He’s upset this has happened, but he’s hoping it blows over quickly."
"But now he is just in his early forties, stuck in his ways, he would like to coach or be a commentator and be back in the NFL but that is currently not in the cards and this recent DUI incident doesn't do him any favors."
"He's upset that it has gotten to this point but he is hoping it goes away as fast as it has presented itself."
Cutler and Cavallari, 37, were married for nearly a decade before officially finalizing their divorce in 2022. Earlier this month, Kristin hinted that she has obtained increased custody of their three children since the split.
However, Kristin shared on Monday’s episode of her Dear Media podcast 'Let’s Be Honest' that things have shifted recently.
"That's changed in the last year," she revealed. "I'm really happy and really content having my life right now being about my kids and work. Happiness for me is peace, and peace for me is making this home exactly how I want it."
