For Cavallari, the "biggest part" of her life is her children.
"I'll go out with certain guys, and I'm like, 'They're great,' but can I picture them as a stepdad? And I'm like, ‘No!’ And that's the biggest part of my life," she previously told Entertainment Tonight. "I am ready to settle down. I'm ready to meet someone."
Cavallari and Cutler share three children; daughter Saylor, and sons Jaxon and Camden. The fashion designer is open with her kids about the fact she is dating – sometimes even getting their opinion.
"I tell them who I'm talking to or what's going on, and they have strong opinions about these guys," she shared.
