Kristin
Cavallari and Jay Cutler’s divorce may be turning ugly. At least, that’s
what recent court filings seem to suggest. Cavallari and Cutler announced they’d
be separating after seven years of marriage on April 26. The announcement,
which was posted on Cavallari’s Instagram, stated that the former pair had “nothing
but love and respect” for each other. That, however, doesn’t seem to be the case
any longer. Since the announcement, there have been allegations
of poor behavior, and a child custody battle seems to be heating up.

Kristin Cavallari is reportedly angry that Jay Cutler referred
to himself as the “primary caregiver” of their children

While Cavallari and Cutler may have gone into the divorce
process with an amicable ending in mind, things seemingly devolved quickly. According
to Elle, Cavallari was not made aware that Cutler would be filing
for divorce. The publication, who reportedly spoke to an insider, claims that
Cavallari was “blindsided” by the filing.

The filing of paperwork isn’t all that Cavallari is worked
up over, though. According to the alleged source, Cavallari was greatly
bothered by the fact that Cutler referred to himself as the “primary caregiver”
of their three minor children. Cutler, who retired
from the NFL in 2018, has been staying at home recently, but Cavallari insists
he is not and never has been the primary caregiver for the kids. Before ending
his NFL career, the source notes, Cutler traveled extensively, leaving Cavallari
to do the majority of the parenting.

Cutler and Cavallari share three children. Their first
child, Camden Jack, was born in 2012. Cavallari and Cutler welcomed their
second child, Jaxon Wyatt, in 2014. Their third child, Saylor James, completed
the family the following year. Cavallari is requesting primary custody of all
three children, according
to Cosmopolitan.

Kristin Cavallari claims that Jay Cutler is speaking
negatively about her to their three children

There seems to be more bad blood between the former pair than
Cavallari let on in her official announcement. According to court documents
secured by Us
Weekly, Cavallari has accused Cutler of making derogatory comments
about her in front of the couple’s three children. She also claims that Cutler
makes inappropriate statements about Cavallari to the three kids, all of whom
are under the age of eight.

Cavallari would not be the first reality TV star to deal
with an ugly, drawn-out custody battle. Bethanny Frankel, the former The
Real Housewives of New York star, has battled her ex-husband, Jason
Hoppy, over custody of their only child, Bryn, since 2013. In one court
filing, Frankel accused Hoppy of taunting her in front of the child they share.
According
to Us Weekly, Frankel also alleged that Hoppy made derogatory
comments about Frankel to Bryn. The former flames still find themselves in court
over custody, from time to time.

Cavallari and Cutler have had relationship troubles for
years

Cavallari and Cutler’s divorce announcement may have come as a shock for some fans, but those who regularly tuned in to Very Cavallari may have seen the writing on the wall. Cutler and Cavallari have starred on the reality TV show for three seasons, and it had become increasingly apparent that the duo was no longer seeing eye-to-eye.

Cavallari, in a candid moment on the show, revealed that she
and Cutler were struggling to make their marriage work. She, however, seemed
resigned to the fact that their relationship would always be somewhat troubled.
She noted that they often experienced periods
of highs and periods of lows, even back when they were simply dating. Whether
or not she saw divorce on the horizon, though, remains unknown.
