After 7 years of marriage, former NFL quarterback Jay Cutler and The Hills' Kristin Cavallari are getting divorced. The stars of E! Network's Very Cavallari are done, but according to Cavallari herself, the reasons don't appear scandalous.
The announcement of the divorce came from Instagram. Reality television star Kristin Cavallari shared a picture of she and Jay Cutler on vacation and shared with fans why the two made the decision to call it quits:
With great sadness, after 10 years together we have come to a loving conclusion to get a divorce. 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.
The exact same statement was shared by Jay Cutler on his Instagram, though the picture was different from the one Kristin Cavallari shared. The statement noted that the couple have merely drifted apart over the years, which was backed up by a report from E! News. Per an insider familiar with the situation, there were no allegations of cheating.
That statement is relevant to Very Cavallari viewers, who may remember Season 2 featured a falling out between Kristin Cavallari and friend Kelly Henderson. The falling out was enhanced by rumors that Jay Cutler had an affair with Henderson, though Cavallari, Cutler, and Henderson all denied those allegations. Sometimes people just get divorced, and that appears to be the case here.
This new development is the end of a bizarre news cycle that picked up on the couple a few weeks ago. Kristin Cavallari and Jay Cutler were put into the unique situation of receiving stay-at-home orders while they were in vacation in the Bahamas. With this, they decided to make the best of it with friends and their children. While the statement does not mention the long Bahama vacation as a factor, a source from E! News said this wasn't exactly a spur of the moment decision:
This isn't out of the blue. They've been trying to make it work for a while.
Kristin Cavallari has been vocal about the state of her and Jay Cutler's marriage for some time. Perhaps plans were in place for this announcement long before the world turned upside, and friends and family were made aware of what was happening before the general public. Obviously, the only thing publicly confirmed is the fact that the two are going their separate ways and, until either says more, anything else should be treated as speculation.
Very Cavallari has not been renewed for Season 4 at E! yet, despite the show's history of early renewals. Continue to stick with CinemaBlend for more on what's happening in the world of television, and for the latest movie news as well.
