Kristin Cavallari has been on and off the dating market a lot since her divorce from Jay Cutler.
Back in December, Cavallari revealed she’s already “dating someone else now,” three months after calling it quits with her TikTok beau, Mark Estes.
The “Hills” alum did not reveal her man’s identity while speaking on an episode of the “Dumb Blonde” podcast.
“I’m kinda dating someone else now! I’m not going to say who it is, and it’s really new,” she said.
She would only reveal that he was a “retired athlete.”
Well, that relationship was short-lived, so now Kristin Cavallari has decided to reveal who that person is.
The mom of three had been seeing former NHL player, Nate Thompson, she said on the podcast, and called it “the most honest, pure, amazing, quote-unquote relationship I’ve ever had.”
She added that some TikTok detectives had already figured it out following her original comments.
“I really think he’s such a great guy. So that’s not one where I’m like, I don’t want anyone to know,” she said as she revealed that she’d named him during a stop on her live podcast tour already, so that cat was out of the bag — plus, some “f—ing detectives pieced it together” on TikTok, she said.
“He is an ex-hockey player. He’s been retired for a couple of years now. He’s a dad. He’s someone who has done a lot of work on himself, and we really connected on such a deep level. Honestly, one of the deeper relationships I’ve had, especially in such a short amount of time.”
“We didn’t hold back anything. We told each other f—ing everything,” she continued, though she clarified she “wouldn’t consider him a boyfriend” per se, but rather “someone that I’ve dated.”
Things between them were “mostly long-distance” since Thompson lives in Los Angeles while she stays in Nashville.
Kristin Cavallari added that their relationship ended before she embarked on her Let’s Be Honest tour last month.
“It wasn’t like we didn’t have fun, and I was attracted to him. Like, all the pieces were there… I just didn’t wanna be in a relationship,” she said.
Cavallari said her responsibilities as a mom also played a part.
“I didn’t necessarily have time either. I think that’s also been kind of a factor for me of, like, my time that I can give to a man right now is so limited. And that’s obviously really hard for guys, and it’s hard for me too … It’s f—ing complicated, alright, with having my kids most of the time. It’s not like it was a couple years ago, which is fine. Again, this is not the phase of my life where I don’t even wanna be dating that much anymore.”
The Laguna Beach alum instead decided to be “done with dating” and instead focused her energy on planning the tour.
“I was like, I don’t want any distractions before my tour. And I really stuck to that. I really was serious. I did not put any energy into men. I did not talk to any men.”
Kristin Cavallari’s Ex-Husband Is Seemingly Engaged
Unlike Kristin Cavallari — Jay Cutler is not someone who talks about his personal life.
Every Cavallari relationship has made headlines, while Jay Cutler has been quiet about his.
Back in November, he took a huge step in his relationship with Samantha Robertson.
Sources told People that Robertson was spotted wearing a striking ring on a notable finger, which suggested they were engaged.
The two made their relationship public in October 2023 via Instagram.
