Kristin Cavallari revealed that her father once 'traumatized' her son while opening up about their years-long estrangement

EXCLUSIVE: Kristin Cavallari Reveals Shocking Truth About Estranged Father and Traumatic Experience with Her Son

In a jaw-dropping revelation, reality TV star Kristin Cavallari has spilled the tea on her long-standing estrangement from her father, Dennis Cavallari. The 38-year-old mother of three opened up about their tumultuous relationship on the latest episode of Harry Jowsey's podcast Boyfriend Material, revealing that she hasn't spoken to her dad in three years.

As The Scholarly Note previously reported, Cavallari had hinted at a troubled past with her father, but this latest admission takes the cake. According to Kristin, her father "crossed the line" with one of her sons, leaving her feeling traumatized and heartbroken.

The reality TV personality, 38, revealed that she has not talked to her dad Dennis Cavallari in three years since they became estranged

"I always had a rough relationship with my dad," she candidly confessed. "And that's a deal breaker for me, especially when he had zero accountability and no apology. He traumatized my kids, and I have no room for that in my life, so that was it."

The Hills alum shared her shocking experience on the podcast, where she revealed that her father's actions were a major factor in their estrangement. "He hasn't tried to mend our relationship, and honestly, it didn't have anything to do with addiction issues," she explained.

Kristin also took aim at her dad's alleged narcissistic tendencies, claiming that he has taken "zero accountability" for his actions. "I think he believes I'm the one who's responsible for our falling out," she accused.

This comes just weeks after she admitted that there is 'not one day where I miss him' and added that the 'best decision' she's ever made was 'cutting him out of [her] life'

This isn't the first time Kristin has spoken about her complicated relationship with her father. Earlier this month, she told People magazine that he would "gaslight" her, leaving her feeling emotional abuse. "I don't have time for that anymore," she declared.

But what's truly stunning is how Kristin has found strength and healing in the aftermath of their estrangement. As she revealed on her podcast, Let's Be Honest, she's been working to cultivate self-love and build a more peaceful existence.

"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," she shared proudly.

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

Kristin's new docuseries, Honestly Cavallari: The Headline Tour, premieres on E! every Wednesday, with streaming available on Peacock the next day. In the series, she takes her podcast on the road, sharing even more intimate details about her life and experiences.
