Kristin Cavallari puts acting career on hold for her family
Kristin Cavallari says she's putting her family before her acting career.
In an interview published in the April/May issue of Coco Eco magazine, the former "Hills" star explains that she's turned down projects that would keep her away from her fiance, Chicago Bears quarterback Jay Cutler, and their 8-month-old son, Camden.

"I've passed on a couple of things that would have kept me here in L.A. because my fiance Jay has to be in Chicago, so if I was here, we would never see each other," the 26-year-old told the magazine. "The sacrifices we make for love..."
Cavallari explained that she's focusing on entrepreneurial endeavors, like the shoe line she's designing for the brand Chinese Laundry.
"I think you need to have a good balance. It's easy to get wrapped up in your career and have that be your only focus, and I want my marriage to work and last -- and family comes first," she said. "The design work is great because I can do most of it from Chicago and I have so much fun with it. I love it and it all works out."
Asked when she and Cutler will tie the knot, Cavallari played coy. "The old marriage question!" she responded. "All I'll say is we're planning a big summer wedding, but I'm keeping it a secret."
