Former NFL star Jay Cutler and Cavallari share 3 kids
Kristin Cavallari's romance with TikTok star Mark Estes has seemingly become serious after the reality TV star shared a photo of her new boyfriend spending time with her son.
Cavallari, 37, posted a photo of Estes, 24, and her son walking with a simple white heart.
The fashion designer previously revealed Estes actually met her kids on their first date, which occurred the day after Valentine's Day.
"We were making out in my driveway. I felt like I was in high school," Cavallari revealed on her podcast, "Let's Be Honest." "Then I walked in to my mom and Jaxon and was like, ‘Hi.’"

"This is the real first guy I'd say they met," Cavallari noted. "My boys were so excited about him… You know what it is? I think more than anything, my kids are really excited for me. My kids really want to see me happy."
Cavallari and ex-husband Jay 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 previously told Entertainment Tonight.
