Kristin Cavallari gets new tattoos as she marks new chapter following Jay Cutler divorce
Looks like Kristin Cavallari is marking a new chapter in her life.
The reality star, 33, revealed she had gotten the initials of her three children and a butterfly tattooed onto her body.
Kristin shared a snap of herself getting inked up by tattoo artist to the stars JonBoy, who diligently etched the artwork onto her arms on Tuesday.

The first image Kristin posted was captioned ‘Tattoo time,’ and captured the star resting on a couch as JonBoy marked up her arm.
Kristin had a sense of calm in her eyes as she watched JonBoy permanently needle in the meaningful tattoos.
She then shared images of the final product – a delicate butterfly upon her wrist and the cursive initials of her three children, Camden, eight, Jaxon, eight, and Saylor, four.
While the name tattoo has obvious meaning to Kristin, so does the butterfly, which she sees as symbolic during times of challenge.

‘Butterflies have been such a sign for me when going through difficult times,’ Kristin explained.
Kristin already has several tattoos, including a Capricorn symbol on the back of her neck and a star inking on her foot.
She once had the initials of her then-boyfriend Nick Zano tattooed on her wrist, but had it removed following their split.

Frequently, tattoos are used to mark a fresh start, life change, or milestone in one’s life, and this definitely seems to be the case for Kristin, who is moving on from her marriage to Jay Cutler.
The couple announced their separation after seven years and three children together earlier this year, and have since taken the next step in their split with a divorce filing.
The separation has been a rocky one for both parties involved, with the exes disputing over custody and money issues.

For now, Kristin is embracing her slower-paced life with her three children.
‘This is the first time in a very long time that I feel like I can take a breath. I’m enjoying things slowed down and having more time to focus on what really matters in life,’ she recently told Us Weekly.
‘I want to take this extra time I have right now to better myself and be the best mom I can be and continue to grow Uncommon James.
‘I’m not thinking about what I want to be doing next year or the year after that. I’ve driven myself crazy with that mentality the past few years. Right now, I just want to be present and enjoy this journey.’
