Kristin Cavallari is feeling like herself again, and it has everything to do with divorcing a former NFL quarterback.
The Very Cavallari alum opened up about her feelings about her divorce from Jay Cutler in a recent episode of The School of Greatness podcast.
“The scariest thing that I’ve ever done is get a divorce. But it’s been the best thing that I’ve ever done and that has really jumpstarted my journey on self-love and figuring out who I am now,” she confessed. “My kids have inspired me to become the best version of myself,” she referred to her kids with Jay: Camden, Saylor and Jaxon.
“I can only be as good to my kids as I am to myself. If I am empty, I have nothing to give them. Being able to be energized and love myself so I can love on my kids — and support them and encourage them — that’s the most important thing. It’s gotten me to a really peaceful place. I feel the best I’ve ever felt in my whole life. I’m the happiest I’ve ever been,” she said confidently. “I’m no longer afraid of getting hurt.”
She would go on to express her excitement about getting out in the dating scene once again.
“I’m actually excited to see who I can be in a new relationship because I feel like I’ve done so much work the last few years. I’m in no rush to be in a new relationship, but when I am, it will excite me to see how different I can be.”
When it comes to her ex-husband, Cutler found himself in major drama when he allegedly had an affair with his neighbor’s wife. He was reportedly on vacation with the couple and they were both caught red handed.

Kristin reportedly heard the news from a friend, and said that “she just wants to distance herself from all of this.”
Jay also recently revealed that he “partied” after their divorce was settled. He stated last month, “When the settlement came through, I threw a party. I don’t recommend divorce for anybody. I’m just gonna go ahead and say that, but, um, it worked out. It worked out for Kristin. It worked out for me, so it is what it is,” he said on the podcast.
TMZ caught up with Kristin and told the publication, “I’ve been partying for 2 years straight.”
Jay and Kristin announced their divorce in April 2020. “With great sadness, after 10 years together we have come to a loving conclusion to get a divorce,” they said in a joint statement. “We have nothing but love and respect for one another and are deeply grateful for the years shared, memories made, and the children we are so proud of. This is just the situation of two people growing apart. We ask everyone to respect our privacy as we navigate this difficult time within our family.”
