Kristin Cavallari's Latest Traffic Incident: A High-Speed Encounter in Tennessee
Kristin Cavallari, the 39-year-old television personality and entrepreneur, reportedly received a citation on October 14 for allegedly driving at a speed of 88 mph in a 70 mph zone within Tennessee. The incident involved her black Porsche 911. According to the citation, a police officer noted that the Uncommon James founder had passed another vehicle while in the number one lane. Cavallari reportedly informed the officer that she was on her way to work, referencing her Nashville-based retail establishment for her Uncommon James brand. Efforts to reach Cavallari's representatives for comment have been made.
A History of Road-Related Encounters: Cavallari's Past Driving Controversies
This recent speeding citation is not Cavallari's first interaction with road-related legal matters. In September 2013, she was cited in Chicago for driving with a California driver's license in Illinois, a state that mandates residents living there for over 90 days to possess an Illinois license. Following the incident, she was escorted to the Evanston Police Station and posted a bond. Cavallari later clarified the situation on social media, asserting her residency in California due to maintaining an apartment in Los Angeles. Less than three years later, she was involved in a car accident in the Chicago area, which led to her hospitalization after another vehicle collided with hers.
Life in Tennessee and Recent Personal Developments for the Reality Star
Cavallari, a mother of three children—Camden, 14, Jaxon, 12, and Saylor, 10—with her ex-husband Jay Cutler, 43, has been a resident of Tennessee since the spring of 2017. Her divorce from Cutler, a former NFL player, was finalized in 2022 after their separation in 2020. In recent years, Cavallari has been romantically linked to several individuals, including NBA coach Will Hardy and country music star Morgan Wallen. She was also associated with singer Chase Rice and reality star Craig Conover in 2021, and comedian Jeff Dye in 2020. In August of this year, she addressed rumors on her podcast, "Let's Be Honest," denying any romantic involvement with reality star Austen Kroll, stating they were merely friends after being photographed together on a group trip in Mallorca, Spain.
