“I don’t actually care what anyone else thinks. And I do think my entire career has prepped me for this moment because when this news came out, it’s the first time in my entire life I 100 percent haven’t given a s–t what anybody thinks,” she added.

The mom of three — who refers to her new beau as “Montana” as a nod to his social media handle “Montana Boyz” — said those around her noticed a positive difference since the romance kick-started.

“[He] came and picked me up and he met my kids,” she told her podcast co-host, Justin Anderson. “He actually met my mom too because my mom was babysitting my kids, so it just really threw him in the mix.”

“This is the real first guy I’d say they’ve met,” she pointed out.

Cavallari — who shares Camden, 11, Jaxon, 9, and Saylor, 8 with ex-husband Jay Cutler — went on, “When [Estes] came to pick me up, the boys were like, ‘Can I show you my room?’ [Estes] is upstairs with my kids seeing their room. The boys were so excited about him.”

“My kids are really excited for me. My kids really want to see me happy and I’ve been very good at separating my dating life from [them].”

A source close to Estes previously told Page Six exclusively that the couple were “unfazed” and not “paying attention to the noise” surrounding their age gap.
