Kristin Cavallari and Jay Cutler are headed for divorce, but they’ll always have Miami

They’ll always have Miami.

Just around three years ago, Jay Cutler and Kristin Cavallari were in a very different place than they are now.

Geographically — and emotionally.

The celebrity couple, who announced divorce plans on Sunday, were in the Magic City.

Kristin Cavallari once said she finds ‘any excuse to go to Miami.’ Now her excuse is her football husband

Cutler came out of retirement briefly in 2017 to play for the Miami Dolphins when quarterback Ryan Tannehill got injured.

He and Cavallari were married in 2013 in Nashville, where Cutler played at Vanderbilt University. He reportedly lived in a hotel room in South Florida during the one-year gig while the “Laguna Beach” star stayed with the kids and visited. Cutler, who turns 37 on Wednesday, returned to the Tennessee capital after the quick Dolphins gig was over.

The Chicago Bears legend had a “milquetoast run” in Miami and left the sport soon after, according to NFL.com.

The estranged couple’s most recent project: E! reality show “Very Cavallari,” which was apparently the death knell for the marriage.

Rumors swirled throughout the series that Cutler was having an affair with Cavallari’s pal Kelly Henderson.

No matter now, because the Cutlers are no more.

And if the former NFL player ends up with Henderson eventually, we’ll know. Hey, it worked for Charles and Camila, right?

In the meantime, Cavallari has accused the Indiana native of “inappropriate marital misconduct” in legal documents.

That doesn’t sound good. At all.

With great sadness, after 10 years together we have come to a loving conclusion to get a divorce. We have nothing but love and respect for one another and are deeply grateful for the years shared, memories made, and the children we are so proud of. This is just the situation of two people growing apart. We ask everyone to respect our privacy as we navigate this difficult time within our family.

According to advice site Smart Divorce, the legal definition is “any conduct that undermines the marital relationship.”

Using it in court could mean more money for Cavallari (Cutler is loaded; he got $10 million out of the Dolphins for being a glorified substitute, so).

“It becomes a factor in a divorce when the offender-spouse’s behavior forces the victim-spouse to assume extra burdens in the marriage,” read the description. “It isn’t meant to punish the offender-spouse or award him or her an inadequate amount of property or income, but to fairly compensate the victim-spouse.”

Categories include habitual drunkenness or addiction; adultery; domestic violence; cruel and abusive behavior; or economic fault.

So, which was it? We’ll be reading the tabloids to find out. We sure have the time now.
