Kristin Cavallari and Kim Zolciak had a lot of tea to spill about their respective divorces in the Honestly Cavallari: The Podcast Tour premiere episode.
Cavallari, 38, made her return to reality TV on Wednesday, June 4, with an inside look at her first-ever podcast tour — and an official introduction to her kids (insert gasp here). Camden, 12, Jaxon, 11, and Saylor, 9, made their television debuts, and they love being in front of the camera.
“I’m not going to see them for nine days, which is a long stretch,” Cavallari said of her kids during the premiere. “We used to do week-on, week-off, 50/50 custody, but that changed over a year ago. So, this will be the longest that I’ve gone without seeing them in a year, and that’s going to be hard.”
Cavallari shares her three kids with ex-husband Jay Cutler, whom she was married to for seven years. They split in 2020 and finalized their divorce in 2022. When she went on her week-long podcast tour, Cavallari’s kids spent their spring break with her ex. (Cutler was not filmed for the new show.)
The first stop on the tour was a trip to Atlanta with former Real Housewives of Atlanta star Zolciak, 47, as her surprise guest. Backstage, the women bonded over their messy divorces.
“Going through something messy in the public — like a divorce — I just know from my own personal experience,” Cavallari explained. “There’s always a certain narrative that’s out there. If someone wants to clear the air, or give their perspective, I’m happy to give that platform for it.”
From a broken engagement to three beautiful children, Kristin Cavallari and Jay Cutler’s relationship has had its share of curveballs, culminating in their April 2020 split. The Uncommon James founder and the former NFL star began their whirlwind romance in 2010, meeting through mutual friend Giuliana Rancic. “Jay is a good Midwestern boy; he’s a […]
Zolciak initially filed for divorce from estranged husband Kroy Biermann in May 2023 but dismissed the filing two months later. Biermann, 39, filed a second time in August of that year. Zolciak shared the final straw in her relationship during Cavallari’s reality show, claiming that she “lived in a prison” with Biermann.
“We tried to work it out for a period of time and then I got this offer to do Surreal Life in Colombia and he said that in order to maintain this marriage and stay with him, I could no longer film ever again in my life,” Zolciak claimed. “Hand to God. I said, ‘This is my passion, this is what I love to do and I’m taking the deal.’ He said, ‘If you take the deal file for divorce.’ I said, ‘Then file.’”
The former couple share kids KJ, 13, Kash, 12, and twins Kaia and Kane, both 11. Biermann adopted Zolciak’s daughters Brielle, 28, and Ariana, 23, from a previous relationship.
A match made in Georgia! Kim Zolciak-Biermann and her husband, Kroy Biermann, were together for more than a decade prior to when she filed for divorce in May 2023 and later dismissed the request. When Bravo fans first met the “House of Kim” podcast host in season 1 of The Real Housewives of Atlanta, she […]
Elsewhere during the episode, Zolciak addressed Biermann’s past allegations that she had a gambling problem.
“I’ve never gambled in a casino in 14 years without Kroy gambling as well,” she claimed.
Cavallari’s live podcast also featured a Q&A segment with her best friend and celebrity hairstylist Justin Anderson — who dropped a bombshell about her dating life.
“She recently went on a date — she’s going to be so mad at me, actually — with Glen Powell,” Anderson revealed. “I wanted it to happen so bad. Top Gun, bitch.”

While that was all Cavallari and Anderson said during the live show, more details about her moment with Powell were revealed later.
“You’re partying in Greece and then Glen just came up to Kristin,” Anderson said. “You guys had a really fun night together.”
Cavallari responded, “I never f***ed him, just putting that out there.”
Anderson stated that they “dry-humped though,” which Cavallari confirmed.
Honestly Cavallari: The Podcast Tour airs on E! Wednesdays at 10 p.m. ET.
