The mother-of-three - Camden, Jaxon, and Saylor – expressed joy in her amicable relationship with the former NFL player, highlighting the positive impact on their kids. Reflecting on its significance, she stated:

"My kids see it, I mean, it's just easier. And listen, I get it. When people's hearts are breaking, it's really difficult. It's really, really difficult, and so, you know, seeing Jay happy is the best." 

Cavallari became a beacon of hope for those navigating rough relationship waters, urging, "And when I tell you guys if we can get there, anyone can get there, I mean it."

In another part of the podcast, "The Hills" alum referred to the former football quarterback as "one of my soulmates," admitting that soulmates were not always wrapped in a beautiful love story.

"I think we can have soulmates, and they can be really difficult relationships in order to spur growth for both people," she revealed. Despite the challenges, she remained thankful for the tough lessons her soulmates brought into her life.

While Cavallari's words were heartwarming, her revelations showed how far the former pair had come since the publicized end of their high-profile romance. In 2021, during an "Off the Vine" podcast appearance with Kaitlyn Bristowe, she opened up about the emotional dilemma that led to the separation.

The fashion designer admitted that the relationship became toxic despite still being in love, forcing her to end it. However, it did not last long, as the "Veronica Mars" guest star returned briefly to Cutler. Unfortunately, her return only affirmed that parting ways was the right decision.

While addressing her past with Cutler, Cavallari kept her cards close regarding rumors of a romance with country star Morgan Wallen. Despite her attempt at a poker face, her reaction to his name during an appearance on "Watch What Happens Live" added a playful twist to the speculation.

In the September episode, a curious fan inquired about Cavallari's current romantic endeavors, specifically someone her kids admired. 

Host Andy Cohen wasted no time playfully suggesting Wallen as the mystery man, stating, "Oh, it's obviously Morgan Wallen. She just said her kids are big fans." The actress' infectious giggle in response only fueled speculation, hinting at a potential truth behind the whispers.

The banter took a humorous turn as Cohen persistently nudged Cavallari about their rumored relationship status. But despite her attempts to maintain a poker face, the "Wild Cherry" star could not help but turn bashful. 

She skillfully deflected when confronted with direct inquiries, saying, "I don't know," while playfully sealing her lips. The "Spring Breakdown" guest star's defensive exclamation, "I'm not dating him," did nothing to help matters. 

Amidst the laughter and teasing, Cohen decided to let her off the hook by declaring, "Wow, I think we just cracked a case with our buddies from Chelsea." 

Known for her previous high-profile romances, including some with reality TV stars, Cavallari was a captivating figure in the spotlight. From her early days on MTV's "Laguna Beach" to the present, the "In Love with a Girl" video vixen proved that her love life remained a topic of fascination for many.
