The romance between Cutler and Cavallari began in 2009. At that time, he was a quarterback for Chicago Bears, and Kristin was a established television personality.

It is not clear when and where did the Indiana native first saw Cavalleri, but he took interest on her. As a result, he sent a request for a date through her publicist.

At that time, the "Laguna Beach: The Real Orange County" star was not familiar with the Cutler, so she refused the offer. Also, she was not fond of his way of approaching her through her agent, so she declined the offer.

A year later, in 2010, however, things changed. Cavallari went to Chicago to visit her mother. While there, she attended the Chicago Bears preseason game with her mother. After the match, she got the chance to meet Jay. After meeting him, her previous opinion about him changed. She found him to be cute rather than arrogant.

Two nights after their first meeting, Culter and the reality star went on a date. After spending time together, they realized they share a lot common than they expected. Soon, the love between them blossomed. 

At the beginning of the relationship, the lovebirds were inseparable. Cavallari, who was then based in Los Angeles, used to often come to Chicago to visit him. When they were apart, they constantly send texts and emails. It is not wrong to say that the pair was head over heels for one another.

Twice Engaged to His Now Wife

The pair planned to have a spring wedding. As preparations were going underway, on July 2011, the news broke that the engagement is called off. Rumors began circulating Cavallari was dumped by her fiance.

At that time, the actress made no comments on that rumor; however, she later revealed in her book that she was the one who called off the wedding. She stated that the football star was insisting on her to be a housewife after nuptials, but she was not in favor of that. 

It seems like Jay had a change of heart after separation from his then-fiancee Kristin. After a few months of calling off their engagement, Culter was sitting in the audience of "Dancing with the Stars" and was cheering for his ex. She was a contestant in the show and was paired with Mark Ballas.

Well, you might be thinking about how can engagement be possible when Jay was not available? Well, after patch-up with his former fiance, Culter asked the question casually while texting. To his pleasant surprise, she agreed. The next day, he just sent her engagement ring back on the mail, and a few days later, she started wearing it.
