Audrina Patridge defends Kristin Cavallari’s ‘hot’ romance with 24-year-old Mark Estes: ‘She needs to have some fun’
Audrina Patridge is all for Kristin Cavallari’s “hot” new romance with much younger TikTok star Mark Estes.
Patridge revealed to Page Six’s “Virtual Reali-Tea” podcast Sunday that she recently reached out to her former “Hills” co-star after Cavallari, 37, faced backlash for dating the 24-year-old.
“I actually wrote to her, I was like, ‘Kristin, you guys make such a hot couple, congrats. Like as long as you are happy that’s all that matters,'” Patridge, 38, exclusively told us at DIRECTV’s Streaming with the Stars party at Spago Beverly Hills.
The former reality TV star noted that it might be good for Cavallari — who has been playing the field since her split from Jay Cutler in 2020 — to “switch it up” and date someone outside her typical circle.
“Maybe she needs to have some fun!” she said.
Patridge also called out the hypocrisy of Cavallari getting slammed for dating a younger man when so many men in Hollywood do the same.
“A lot of men can date younger girls, so why not?”
“I don’t think it’s gonna be the one to settle down with but I think for now it’s great,” she added.

Cavallari debuted her romance with the model last month while vacationing in Mexico. At the time, a source close to Estes Page Six that their romance was still “new.”
“Kristin thinks Mark is super hot. He’s very flirtatious, and she’s loving it,” the insider said.
Despite being dragged online for dating the recent college grad, sources told us that Cavallari has remained “unfazed” by the criticism — even recently rocking an “M” necklace to seemingly silence the haters.
As for her own dating life, Patridge told Page Six that she is “happily single” while “focused on [her] career” and raising her 7-year-old daughter, Kirra.
“I have my little girl and I am kinda focusing on myself and working out and getting back into the light with camera stuff and working and TV,” she teased.
“I’m not getting off topic with boys,” the reality TV star joked.
The “Bling Ring” star was last linked to Jarod Einsohn, a producer on her “Was it Real?” podcast, in December 2022.
At the time, sources told Just Jared that they “quietly” started dating that summer.
However, the pair never went public with their romance and things seemingly fizzled out just as quietly as they began.
