Kristin Cavallari and Jay Cutler selling massive $5M Nashville mansion as they divorce

The Very Cavallari star made the shocking announcement on Sunday, that she and her husband were getting a divorce.

Despite many rumors, their divorce comes as they simply “grew apart”, as Kristin worded it on her social media.

And instead of one of them keeping the house, they decided to put it up for sale.

The two, along with their three children, shared a seven-bedroom, 10-bathroom mansion in Nashville, which takes up 19,983 sq. ft. in their estate.

They originally bought the home in 2012 – one year before getting married – for $5.3 million.

However, in 2018, they first put it up for sale for $7.9 million but were forced to slash the price to $5.7 million in April 2019.

Right now, the home is being sold for $4.95 million.

Just yesterday, Kristin and her husband announced they were getting a divorce – which they had filed for on Friday.

A source close to the couple said their shock split was because they could no longer “relate to each other as much”, adding that Kristin, 33, and Jay, 36, have been having problems for a while.

The source told People: “Kristin and Jay had been having problems for a long time. They hadn’t spent much time together in recent months.”

Denying the divorce had “absolutely nothing to do” with cheating rumors, the source added: “Kristin and Jay are a lot different. She has so much on her plate, with her brands and with the show.

“Jay is not as interested in all of that. She’s so passionate about her work and they couldn’t relate to each other as much. So it pulled them apart.”
