Coronavirus lockdowns happened so fast around the world that, in some cases, people were caught off guard. It looks like Kristin Cavallari and her former NFL QB husband Jay Cutler are two of those such people.
As pointed out by Twitter user @clairecdowns in a very detailed and well-researched thread, it looks like Cutler, Cavallari, her hairdresser and his fiancé, have been stuck in the Bahamas for close to three weeks now, riding out the coronavirus self-isolation order.
It’s hard to get a direct timeline from Cavallari’s Instagram, and again, @clairecdowns has a much more through breakdown, but on March 15, she posted this picture of her and her friend, professional hairstylist Justin Anderson, on the beach.
Anderson posted another image of the quartet on the beach on March 17, alluding to their not being able to go back home, “even if they tried.”
“being stuck on an empty island and forced to quarantine could be worse. thankful for my wolf pack during these scary times. this is where we are, this is us staying positive. we couldn’t be social here if we tried ✌🏼 i am afraid of what we will go home to when they let us back into the states 😢 hope you’re all staying safe where ever you happen to be ♥️” the post reads.
Over the past two plus weeks, multiple posts from Anderson, Cavallari and Cutler have talked about isolating in the Bahamas. Here’s this post from Anderson on March 27th, which says all four of them have been stuck together for 14 days and counting.
“i meannnn let’s get real for a second- spending FOURTEEN days not spending time with anyone else is nuts, but we’ve done it. AND i still love each of them. that’s pretty solid 💪🏽🏝♥️ the family that quarantines together, stays together… 🤞🏼 stay tuned ya filthy animals!,” the caption reads.
Cutler has resorted to making Castaway jokes on his Instagram, with an ever-evolving count of days spent isolated.
It certainly looks like hanging out in the Bahamas is the new normal for Cutler and Cavallari, but it also leads to so, so many questions. How did this happen? Was this a choice? Are they even trying to get back? Are they determined to ride out the pandemic in paradise? Why were they traveling to begin with? Most importantly, how much is this costing them? Island life don’t come cheap.
Also, because of the super sleuthing Claire has done, it sounds like staying is a choice. Until recently, Americans in the Bahamas were not just allowed to leave to go home, but urged to do so.
The big thing around this time is Anderson starts saying that “home” meaning the US is not as safe as the Bahamas. Cutler posts this pic of a volleyball. pic.twitter.com/7zaXTwCTCu

Anyway, nothing feels more on brand than the world trying to gut out a pandemic and Cavallari continuing to just focus on posting her workout videos.
