Kristin Cavallari and Jay Cutler flipped their roles as breadwinner for their family prior to getting divorced in April 2020 - but where do their finances stand now? When Cavallari and Cutler began dating in 2010, to many, Cutler was the bigger name because of his career as an NFL quarterback. Although Cavallari came from a reality TV background, Cutler was one of the highest-paid quarterbacks in the league during the 2014 season, one year after they tied the knot. The pair, who share sons Camden and Jaxon and daughter Saylor, had a bit of a financial role reversal by 2017. That year, Cutler retired following the football season and Cavallari launched her own profitable company, Uncommon James, which soon made her the money-maker in their household. Since getting divorced in 2020, Cavallari has claimed that Cutler didn't give her any seed money for Uncommon James and further alleged that she got nothing after they separated.

"I'm proud of what I've accomplished on my own." Cutler clapped back at Cavallari's claims about their divorce settlement in August 2025, calling it "borderline slander."

The quarterback asked for a trade in 2009, and after signing a two-year contract worth $30 million, his time with the Chicago Bears began. Cutler signed a seven-year contract extension with the Bears in 2014. The $22.5 million salary going into the 2014-2015 season made him the highest-paid quarterback in the league. The team released Cutler in 2017 with a $2 million buyout clause, and he landed at the Miami Dolphins for one more season - at $10 million - before officially retiring. It's estimated that Cutler earned $54 million in total payments from the Bears, with around $120 million earned throughout his NFL career.

"I can just buy it with my money," Cavallari quipped. "Oh, you don't like that, do you? Oh, a little independence." Cutler pointed out, "You have your money but then all of my money is our money." Cavallari agreed, explaining, "That's how it should be. The girl should have her own stash. No girl should ever have to stay in a relationship because a guy is supporting her. I'm with you because I love you, not because I need you." Kristin's Net Worth John Lamparski/Getty Images Cavallari's net worth is an estimated $30 million, according to Celebrity Net Worth.
