Kristin Cavallari has announced the end of her relationship with influencer Mark Estes, confirming their breakup during a live event in Austin, Texas. The former “Hills” star, 37, shared the news while attending a show for Alex Cooper’s “Unwell” tour, where it was revealed to the audience that she is “newly single.”
This split comes just seven months after the couple first went public with their romance, which began in February 2024. While Cavallari did not elaborate much on the separation, she described the situation as “fresh.”
Their breakup occurred shortly after Estes appeared on Cavallari’s podcast, “Let’s Be Honest,” where he expressed his desires for the relationship, mentioning he wanted to get married and start a family. Despite these aspirations, he emphasized that he preferred to take their relationship at a steady pace.
Cavallari, a mother of three, shares her children with ex-husband Jay Cutler. Her sons Camden, 12, Jaxon, 10, and daughter Saylor, 8, were raised in a high-profile environment, which adds complexity to her dating life.
Estes, who is part of a social media group known as the “Montana Boyz,” gained popularity for their cowboy-themed content, which often involves lip-syncing to familiar songs. Notably, he faced allegations of felony assault in 2021 related to an off-campus incident while he was attending Montana State University, although he was never charged.
Despite facing some criticism regarding their age difference, Cavallari’s affection for Estes was evident in her social media posts, where she shared moments from their travels together, including a romantic getaway to Mexico. The pair even discussed their strong chemistry, labeling it as the “best sex” they’ve experienced in previous relationships.
Now, as both individuals navigate their next steps in life, Cavallari finds herself back on the market, giving her time and focus to her children and personal growth.
