Kristin Cavallari is opening up about her fallout with the Kardashians.
In an interview on Bunnie XO's Dumb Blonde podcast that dropped on Monday, December 30, 2024, Cavallari shared how a rumor caused a rift between her and Kourtney Kardashian. According to Cavallari, they became friends after Kourtney first got together with Scott Disick.
"Scott and Kourtney started dating, that's how I met Kourtney. I f**kng loved Kourtney," Cavallari said. "We were really good friends."
Cavallari was friends with Disick before she knew Kourtney. Kourtney and Disick dated on-and-off from 2006 before splitting for good in 2015. But around the first time Kourtney and Disick first split in 2008, Cavallari had gone on a trip to Las Vegas with "a bunch of guy friends," with Disick among the bunch. However, rumors began to circulate after their trip.
"We all went out, we had a good time, I was never even alone with Scott," Cavallari said. "The next morning, it was on Page Six or something that Scott and I had hooked up."
According to Cavallari, "Kourtney was really upset about it," but she tried telling her the story wasn't true. "[Kourtney] was like, 'Well, I don't know, I just know I have sisters and I would never put myself in that situation.'"
Cavallari also said that she believed Kourtney could've put a stop to the gossip surrounding her, but chose not to.
"All it would take is one of the Kardashians to be like, 'That's not true,' for it to go away, but they wouldn't do that," she said. "That's the part that pisses me off is I think they have no regard for anyone else other than themselves."
Bunnie chimed in, saying that the Kardashians "don't really defend themselves either," because, as Cavallari says, "They're in the camp of all press is good press."
