Kristin Cavallari & Her Friends Thought Jay Cutler Had A ‘Shady Side’!

Was Kristin Cavallari and Jay Cutler‘s divorce announcement a surprise for YOU?! Because according to a new source, their friends saw this coming a mile off!

Someone with an inside perspective on the Hills alum’s inner circle spilled to Us Weekly on Thursday:

“Kristin and Jay’s split was not surprising at all to their friends… The issues in their relationship had been brewing for a while.”

That’s pretty much in line with what we’ve heard. And how these things usually go tbh — we mean, no one gets divorced overnight.

However, the insider also used some very specific wording about what Kristin and her friends saw in the former football player:

“Their relationship always had its ups and downs and Kristin and those close to her thought that Jay had a shady side to him.”

Whoa, whoa, whoa! A shady side?? This wouldn’t happen to be about all those rumors of an affair with Kristin’s former BFF Kelly Henderson, would they? Because even the Uncommon James CEO herself didn’t believe any of that — though we’ve heard she wasn’t too happy with how Kelly exploited the extra attention.

How bad are we talking here??

Well, another source broke it down for DailyMail.com earlier this month, saying:

“Kristin’s issue was how he behaved with her, their family, friends and fans. That was the problem that caused their marriage to shut down. He would be really rude and dismissive of anyone who would approach her.”

The insider further claimed:

“As the years went on, Cutler stopped having any time for Kristin. He pushed her away, made her feel isolated. Even when they were in the same house, she felt alone with their children. He’d always be in a bad mood and closed off. There was ice running through his veins and he’d couldn’t have been colder or more distant.”

Sure, we saw the little fights on Very Cavallari, but it’s reality TV! They always play up the drama, right? Maybe not so much in this case… According to this source, Kristin was actually making Jay look BETTER in the edit!

“His behavior when they filmed her reality show was at an all-time low. If he wasn’t happy with how something had come across, he would take his microphone off and storm off. This horrified Kristin and he was lucky that she was an executive producer as it meant that those scenes and his horrible behavior never made it on television.”

Man, it’s too bad Very Cavallari is over — if they did a new season on the split, complete with flashbacks using all the unseen footage of this so-called bad behavior, it would be MUST-SEE TV! Do YOU think the marriage got worse than we’ll ever know??
