Reality television sensation Kristin Cavallari has sent shockwaves through her fanbase with astonishing revelations about her tumultuous childhood, confessing to a life of juvenile delinquency that began astonishingly early.
The Laguna Beach and The Hills alumna, now 37 and a successful entrepreneur, made the stunning disclosures during the latest episode of her podcast, Let's Be Honest. She described herself as a 'little s***' during her formative years, detailing a pattern of behaviour that would alarm any parent.
A Pattern of Petty Crime
Cavallari's descent into petty crime began at the tender age of nine, when she was still in fourth grade. Her first foray into shoplifting was as audacious as it was foolish – she attempted to steal a bulky, bright orange hunting knife from a local store.
'I got caught shoplifting in fourth grade,' Cavallari confessed matter-of-factly. 'I tried to steal a knife, an orange hunting knife. I got caught, and the police came.'
Underage Drinking Escapades
But her criminal exploits didn't end with failed shoplifting attempts. By the time she reached seventh grade, Cavallari had progressed to more serious offences. She revealed that her first experience with alcohol occurred at just 12 years old, marking the beginning of a reckless period of underage drinking.
Her behaviour escalated to the point where law enforcement became a regular feature of her teenage years. 'I got caught by the cops drinking, I want to say, a handful of times,' she admitted, painting a picture of a youth spiralling out of control.
A Mother's Concern
Perhaps most telling was Cavallari's reflection on how she would react if her own children – sons Camden, 11, Jaxon, nine, and daughter Saylor, eight – exhibited similar behaviour. The mother-of-three was unequivocal in her response, stating she would be 'very, very concerned,' acknowledging the gravity of her own past actions through the lens of parenthood.
These revelations offer a stark contrast to Cavallari's current image as a savvy businesswoman and founder of the successful lifestyle brand, Uncommon James. Her candid confession provides a remarkable glimpse into the rebellious past of a celebrity who has often portrayed an image of polished perfection.
