Jay Cutler claims ‘reckless’ ex Kristin Cavallari lied about divorce settlement
Jay Cutler claimed his “reckless” ex-wife, Kristin Cavallari, lied about not receiving any money from him in their divorce settlement.
“Let’s think about this logically. ‘Not a penny.’ OK. Married for, I don’t know, seven years or so, three kids,” the former NFL star said during a recent episode of his “Take It Outside” podcast.
“You can go and see how much I made in the NFL. It’s online. You can see the contract from year to year and the total amount at the end of 12 years,” he added.
“So, you go to divorce and each side gets a lawyer and then you go to court and there’s a judge.”
Cutler, who earned approximately $127.9 million during his 12-year NFL career, said there’s “not a judge in the state of Tennessee” that would have signed off on a divorce agreement that would allow him to “keep every single dollar” he made during their marriage.
The former Chicago Bears quarterback, 42, said the “Laguna Beach” alum’s skincare and jewelry company, Uncommon James, was a “marital asset” because it was created during their union.
“It’s irresponsible. I think it’s reckless. I think it’s borderline slander to insinuate that there was zero dollars split during the marriage that each side got,” he shared.
“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 added.
Though the supplement business owner would not disclose the exact numbers of their settlement, he told viewers that it was “definitely not zero.”
When asked by his podcast co-host, Sam Mackey, if the money Cavallari, 38, received was “enough to live comfortably for the rest of your life on,” Cutler replied, “Without an absolute doubt.”
Cutler explained that he “hates” that he even had to address his ex-wife, but it “gets to a point where it’s untrue.”
Page Six has reached out to Cavalleri’s rep for comment but did not immediately hear back.
Cutler’s response comes more than a month after the former reality star claimed she “never” got “a penny” from him while discussing the creation of her company, which launched in 2017.
“I have never gotten a penny from my ex-husband,” the mom of three said on the June 18 episode of her “Honestly Cavallari: The Headline Tour.”
“I didn’t get any money from our divorce, so let’s just clear that up. Thank you,” Cavallari added.
The exes announced their split in 2020 and their divorce was finalized two years later.
Cavallari and Cutler share three kids: Camden, 13, Jaxon, 11, and Saylor, 9.
