Who is Kristin Cavallari’s much younger boyfriend, Mark Estes? The Hills star – who has 3 children with NFL ex Jay Cutler – is dating the 24-year-old Montana Boyz TikTokker, who’s 13 years her junior
Netizens haven’t held back in voicing their disapproval at the news that reality star Kristin Cavallari is dating Mark Estes – a man 13 years her junior. However, the 37-year-old TV personality remains unfazed by the uproar.
In a new TikTok video posted by The Hills alum on March 2, Cavallari is seen lip-synching to an audio: “So what are you going to do about it? Are you going to arrest me? Are you going to give me a ticket?”
“When they’re all up in arms that I’m dating a 24 year old. Andddd?” she captioned the video.
The mum-of-three and 24-year-old Estes first sparked dating rumours last month after they were spotted on holiday in Mexico, per TMZ. The Laguna Beach star then confirmed their relationship on February 27 by sharing a selfie of the couple on Instagram along with the caption: “He makes me happy”.
