  • Cavallari and Rice were introduced to each other through a mutual friend
  • The pair was last spotted together at one of his concerts

Kristin Cavallari is dating again, nearly a year after her split from husband Jay Cutler, a report says.

Though Cavallari and Cutler, who announced their separation in April 2020, are still finalizing their divorce, this hasn't hindered the "Very Cavallari" star, 34, from finding new love. Multiple outlets, including People and TMZ, reported Tuesday that Cavallari has been seeing country star Chase Rice, 35, for a few weeks.

"They've been seeing each other a little over a month," an unnamed source told People. "They were introduced through a mutual friend. She was last spotted at his concert. They're having fun together."

While Rice and Cavallari have yet to address their relationship status, sources told TMZ that their relationship is "pretty low-key and casual so far." According to the outlet's insiders, the pair — who both reside in the Nashville area — have been getting together regularly and things could be heating up between them.

Rice is not Cavallari's first romance since her split from Cutler. The "Hills" star was also previously linked to comedian Jeff Dye for months before she confirmed to E!'s "Daily Pop" in May that she was single.

"I'm focusing on me and taking care of my babes. That's it," said Cavallari, who shares sons Camden, 9 and Jaxon, 7, and daughter Saylor, 5, with Cutler.

Meanwhile, Rice, whose latest single "Drinkin' Beer. Talkin' God. Amen" hit no. 1 on the Billboard country music charts in August, previously dated former "Bachelor" contestant Victoria Fuller.

In July, Cavallari set the record straight on some rumors about her personal life, including that she was allegedly in a "love triangle."

"Let's clear up some gossip bulls---," she wrote on her Instagram Story, according to People. "There's a little something that I feel like I should clear up. I do not feel like I owe anybody an explanation, normally I don't comment on this stuff, however, these rumors have been going on for about a year now."

The Uncommon James founder said the "love triangle" rumor "is not true." She explained that she did have a "one and only love triangle," but it was back in high school with her then-boyfriend Stephen Colletti and Lauren Conrad, which was documented on the MTV show "Laguna Beach."

She went on to say, "I'm not dating anybody, I haven't dated anybody in a few months."

Cavallari also made it clear that she has never dated "Southern Charm" stars Craig Conover and Austen Kroll and has no plans of doing so. "It's possible for a grown woman to be friends with a grown man, and for that to be it," she added.

Meanwhile, Cutler recently shared his struggles with getting back into the dating scene. The former NFL quarterback admitted in his "Uncut with Jay Cutler" podcast that he found dating "hard as hell" following his split from Cavallari.

He explained that he found it difficult to connect with people with different priorities as him. "I’m at a different phase of my life now with kids. Priorities have changed," he shared. "It isn't just a purely selfish play by my part."
