Kristin Cavallari has made headlines by expressing her views on age-gap relationships, particularly the trend of older women dating younger men.
On April 11, she took to her Instagram Stories to discuss this phenomenon, stating, “I love this era for us!”
Cavallari, who is 39, believes older women have gained confidence and are willing to be direct about their desires. She remarked that these women are “not as many games” and “not afraid to ask for what they need/want.”

She reflected on her past relationship with younger boyfriend Mark Estes.
The TV personality sees dating younger men as a thrilling experience. “I think, for women, it’s just really fun and traditionally a little ‘bad,’ which just makes it even more fun,” she added. Cavallari expressed her admiration for women who challenge societal norms, stating, “I love seeing us breaking rules, ladies.”
In 2024, Cavallari dated TikTok star Mark Estes, despite their 13-year age gap. However, she later admitted that this age difference contributed to their breakup.
“It’s hard because I broke up with Mark because I just know long-term it’s not right,” she revealed during an episode of her podcast, “Let’s Be Honest.” The breakup lacked negativity, with Cavallari noting, “No one cheated. No one was mean.”
She praised Estes, calling him “the best boyfriend I’ve ever had,” but acknowledged that he needed to experience life outside their relationship.

Kristin Cavallari said dating had not been a priority in her busy life.
Cavallari has been candid about her dating experiences since her divorce from retired NFL player Jay Cutler in 2020. She has three children with Cutler and has emphasized her focus on motherhood and professional commitments.
“I’m not looking,” she stated in a recent interview with Us Weekly. “For the last year or so, dating has not been a priority.” She expressed concerns about how a new partner might fit into her life, which she described as “full right now.”
