Kristin Cavallari shared a vulnerable moment after her 12-year-old son got tackled in football.
“This was not my intention, by the way, to cry. I thought I’d give everyone a life update. I thought I had worked through all of this,” Cavallari, 37, said on her “Let’s Be Honest” podcast.
“My oldest, Camden, has been playing football for middle school — tackle football. It’s been so emotional. I actually cried before Camden’s first game. I was like this, I was holding back tears. I was like, ‘I just don’t want you to get hurt.'”

Cavallari filed for divorce from Cutler in April 2020 after seven years of marriage. The couple share three children: Camden, 12, Jaxon, 10, and Saylor, 8.
The former reality star previously credited her three children for giving her a positive outlook on her divorce.
“My kids have inspired me to become the best version of myself,” she said on “The School of Greatness” podcast at the time. “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.”
Cavallari is currently in a new relationship with Mark Estes, a member of the TikTok group Montana Boyz.
