Jay Cutler is fighting back in the latest chapter of his messy divorce with Kristin Cavallari.
On his Take It Outside podcast, the ex-Bears QB challenged Cavallari’s claim that she walked away with nothing.
Cavallari recently said she “never got a penny” from her ex-husband, a remark that has now sparked a heated response.
Cutler, who earned approximately $127.9 million during his 12-year NFL career, said there’s “not a judge in the state of Tennessee” that would have signed off on a divorce agreement that would allow him to “keep every single dollar” he made during their marriage.
Jay Cutler sets the record straight
“Let’s think about this logically. ‘Not a penny.’ OK. Married for, I don’t know, seven years or so, three kids,” the former NFL star said during a recent episode of his podcast.
“You can go and see how much I made in the NFL. It’s online. You can see the contract from year to year and the total amount at the end of 12 years.”
The former quarterback added that Cavallari’s skincare and jewelry company, Uncommon James, counted as a “marital asset” since she launched it during their union.
“It’s irresponsible. I think it’s reckless. I think it’s borderline slander to insinuate that there was zero dollars split during the marriage that each side got,” he shared.
“It’s insanity. It’s completely false, completely untrue. It is, it just is. I’ve got a divorce decree. I’ve got something that’s signed by the judge — it’s like, 67 pages — it says the number breakdown,” Cutler added.
Though he would not disclose the exact numbers of their settlement, Cutler told listeners that it was “definitely not zero.”
When asked by his podcast co-host, Sam Mackey, if the money Cavallari received was “enough to live comfortably for the rest of your life on,” Cutler replied, “Without an absolute doubt.”
Cutler admitted he “hates” that he even had to address his ex-wife, but said it had reached a point where he could no longer stay quiet. “It gets to a point where it’s untrue,” he told listeners.
The former couple married in 2013 and divorced in 2022. They share three children: Camden, 13, Jaxon, 11, and Saylor, 9. They announced their split in 2020 and settled terms two years later.
