The mother-of-three and former star of The Hills was traveling in a vehicle when it was struck by another vehicle, according to the site.

Cavallari’s husband, Chicago Bears quarterback Jay Cutler, arrived at the hospital shortly after hearing the news.

A source close to Cavallari tells TMZ that her injuries are not serious, but she is sore.

Luckily, her three children, Camden, Jaxon and Saylor, were not in the car with her during the time of the accident.

Cavallari gave birth to her little girl Saylor just last November.

The past few months has been eventful for Cavallari. News of the accident comes on the heels of the tragic death of Cavallari’s brother Michael last December.

The jewelry and shoe designer has been eagerly awaiting the release of a new book she authored, entitled Balancing in Heels, in which the star will give fans a sneek peek into her lifestyle as a business woman and mother, and also provide advice on how to live a balanced life.

Our thoughts are going out to Kristin and her family.
