A representative for Cavallari, 39, had not responded to requests for comment at the time the report was published.
Earlier traffic encounters and an on-road crash
Cavallari is no stranger to run-ins with law enforcement on the road. In 2013 she was stopped for speeding in Illinois while living in the state with then-husband Jay Cutler.
- Officials said she was driving with a California license despite residing in Illinois.
- State rules required new residents to obtain an Illinois license within 90 days.
- She was reportedly taken to the Evanston police station and posted a $150 bond.
Several years later, in 2016, Cavallari was involved in a separate incident when another motorist struck her vehicle in the Chicago area. Her spokesperson then said she was receiving treatment and expected to be released from the hospital soon after.
Residence, family and life in Tennessee
The former Laguna Beach star moved from Illinois to Tennessee in 2017 when Cutler retired from the NFL. The family remained in Tennessee after the couple split in 2020 and finalized a contentious divorce in 2022.
- She continues to live in Tennessee with the couple’s three children: Camden Jack, Jaxon Wyatt and Saylor James.
- The children’s ages were listed in recent reporting as 14, 12 and 10, respectively.
Relationships since the divorce
Since her separation from Cutler, Cavallari has been romantically linked to several public figures. Media coverage has tracked a string of high-profile dates and rumored pairings.
- Comedian Jeff Dye (2020)
- Craig Conover and country singer Chase Rice (2021)
- Morgan Wallen (2023)
- Most recently, reports place her on a date with Utah Jazz coach Will Hardy in late 2025.
Meanwhile, Jay Cutler announced his engagement to Samantha Robertson in 2024 after going public with their relationship the year before.
What to watch next
Legal records and public statements will determine whether the Tennessee citation leads to fines or other penalties. Fans and observers are likely to follow updates, given Cavallari’s public profile and the celebrity interest in her personal life.
