NEWSWho Is Kristin Cavallari's New Boyfriend Mark Estes? Everything to Know About the 'Laguna Beach' Star's 24-Year-Old Hunk
Who is Kristin Cavallari’s mystery man?
After the Laguna Beach star debuted her relationship with new boyfriend Mark Estes on February 27 via an Instagram post, many have been curious about the 24-year-old hunk.
Mark Estes lives in Montana and Nashville.
Cavallari was previously married to Jay Cutler — with whom she shares kids Camden, Jaxon and Saylor — before calling it quits in 2020. The blonde beauty has not had a serious public relationship until Estes came along.
According to a source, Estes and Cavallari first communicated online before they connected face to face.
“They’ve been dating longer than people think and have kept it very private. They met on social media,” the insider spilled. “They’re serious enough now that they were ready to go public. They’re really happy together. He’s been so great to her and is just a really nice guy.”
The reality TV star’s hunk lives in both Montana and Nashville, Tenn., per his Instagram bio, which reads, “Life is amazin, it is what it should be | Montana | Nashville 📍.”
Mark Estes is part of the Montana Boyz TikTok collective.
Despite sparking a romance with the southern resident, Cavallari once noted she was over seeing any guys in Tennessee.
"I've decided I'm done dating in Nashville," she told Entertainment Tonight in September 2023, adding she can “guarantee” her next partner would not be a country music star.
"I would consider myself to be a monk at this point," she joked. "You can throw anything at me at me, and I'm like, 'OK.'"
Additionally, Estes is a part of a TikTok collective called the Montana Boyz, where he and his attractive friends lip sync popular songs together.
