Kristin Cavallari claimed that her father once ‘traumatized’ her son while opening up about their years-long estrangement.
The reality TV personality, 38, revealed that she has not talked to her dad Dennis Cavallari in three years since they became estranged.
This comes only weeks after she confessed that there isn’t a single day where she misses him, mentioning that the ‘best decision’ she ever made was ‘removing him from [her] life.’
‘I consistently had a challenging relationship with my dad,’ the Hills alum stated while discussing more about their separation on Harry Jowsey’s podcast Boyfriend Material this week.
The mother of three also claimed on the podcast episode that her father ‘crossed the line with one of my boys.’
Cavallari shares two sons, Camden, 12, and Jaxon, 10, and nine-year-old daughter Saylor with her ex-husband Jay Cutler.

The fashion designer continued: ‘That’s a deal breaker for me, especially when he had zero accountability and no apology.
‘He traumatized my kids,’ she alleged. ‘And I have no room for that in my life, and so that was it.’
She further talked about how she would manage the situation if roles were reversed, acknowledging that she envisions herself trying ‘everything possible’ to reconcile.
‘To be honest with you, as a mom, if I had a kid and I really f***ed up with my kid and they wanted to cut me out of their life, I would do everything imaginable to not let that happen,’ she said.
‘I would be like, “I am so f***ing sorry.” Showing up at your house, like, doing everything imaginable and my dad in a lot of ways was like, “OK.”‘
She claimed that her dad ‘hasn’t tried’ to mend their relationship and added that their estrangement did not have to do with addiction issues.
Cavallari then accused her father of being an alleged ‘narcissist,’ who has taken ‘zero accountability,’ before suggesting that he believes she is to blame for their falling out.
Cavallari previously opened up about her and her dad’s relationship during an episode of her podcast with psychologist Dr. Sherrie Campbell in December 2023.

‘I actually didn’t even realize that my dad was a narcissist until I was an adult,’ she said.
At the time, she talked vaguely about the incident that caused their estrangement.
‘I can take the abuse. I have my whole life. But it’s like, when you start now messing with my kids, I’m not doing it.’
Earlier this month, the Wild Cherry actress told People that her father would ‘gaslight’ her, so she dissolved their relationship. ‘I don’t have time for that anymore,’ she explained.
‘If someone’s not bringing you joy, if people are only bringing you hurt and sadness and anger, what is the point? Even if it’s a parent, life’s too short.’
While appearing on Bunny Xo’s Dumb Blonde podcast in December, she referred to her father as a ‘typical narcissist,’ and said she turned to drugs and alcohol to cope.
‘The only way I found a connection was with my boyfriend. I didn’t have a connection at home,’ she explained.

Cavallari said the break with her dad and her divorce from Cutler have made her stronger. ‘I had to get very real with myself about the lack of self-love that I had, and I had to find self-love and build myself up again,’ she explained.
‘I finally, for the first time in my life, do love myself. I love my life. I’ve really worked hard to cultivate this peace and this happiness.’
The reality star took her own podcast, Let’s Be Honest, on the road to film her new docuseries.
Episodes of Honestly Cavallari: The Headline Tour premiere on E! every Wednesday, with streaming available on Peacock the next day.
