Kristin Cavallari Says Chicago 'Just Not Home' in Magazine Interview

Reality television star Kristin Cavallari, a Barrington native who is also the wife of Chicago Bears quarterback Jay Cutler, told Elle Magazine in a recent article Chicago is “just not home” and that she hopes she and Cutler will move to her Nashville-area home full-time once his contract with the Bears is up.

Of course that isn’t until 2020, and a number of fans - even some who have witnessed a march of bad quarterbacks, would like to see Cutler gone much sooner.

“Jay hates L.A.,” Cavallari said in the article posted this week. “And Chicago’s just not home.”

But the pair have lived together in Chicago even before they wed in 2013, having been residents of both Winnetka and Lake Forest, home of the Bears’ practice facility.

Cavallari’s Nashville-area home has six bedrooms, 10 1/2 bathrooms, a movie theater, pool and gazebo, according to the Chicago Tribune. She put it on display for Elle in anticipation of the spring release of her lifestyle book “Balancing in Heels.”

“I was a little nervous at first, to be honest, just because I didn’t…It’s sort of always been ingrained in me that if you want to be in the entertainment business, you either have to be in L.A. or New York. And so when I married Jay, I officially moved to Chicago. I was a little scared. I didn’t really know exactly what I wanted to do with my career, but everything has sort of fallen into place with the shoes, especially, the jewelry, and now this book,” she said.

The two are currently expecting their third child.
