Kristin Cavallari made headlines June 18 during her podcast Honestly Cavallari: The Headline Tour when she claimed she “never got a penny” from ex-husband and former NFL quarterback Jay Cutler.
She said she’s the sole owner of her lifestyle brand, Uncommon James — which brings in an estimated $50 million a year — and insisted she received no financial support from Cutler after the divorce.
Jay Cutler isn’t letting that slide.
The longtime Chicago Bears quarterback responded on his own podcast, Take It Outside, calling Cavallari’s claims “completely false,” “reckless,” and “borderline slander.”
He pointed out that under Tennessee law, it’s nearly impossible for one party to walk away with nothing after a seven-year marriage — especially when kids are involved.
Fox News covered Cutler’s tense response:
While addressing Cavallari’s claims on his podcast, Cutler referred to Uncommon James as a “marital asset.”
“I think it’s reckless,” he said of Cavallari’s claims. “I think it’s borderline slander to insinuate that there was zero dollars split during the marriage that each side got. It’s insanity. It’s completely false, completely untrue. It is, it just is. I’ve got a divorce decree. I’ve got something that’s signed by the judge – it’s, like, 67 pages – it says the number breakdown.”
Cutler didn’t reveal exact figures, but said the financial settlement was enough for Cavallari to “live comfortably.”
“I’m not going to get into those exact numbers, but I can guarantee you it’s definitely not zero dollars,” he added.
Neither party has disclosed specific dollar amounts publicly, but the back-and-forth suggests this divorce saga is far from settled — at least in the court of public opinion.
