In the 2018 interview with Giulana Rancic, the multi-hyphenate star made it clear that her kids' innocence and protection from the media was important. Cavallari said that she doesn't even like showing her kids off on social media. "They're 5, 4, and 2. When they're old enough to make that decision, that's one thing," she said in the interview. "For right now, I just want to keep them kids."
According to People, she has an executive producer credit on the show, which means she gets a huge say in what ends up airing. This credit is key for her, as she's noted that in her early days on Laguna Beach she would do whatever the producers told her to do, resulting in a not-so-positive portrayal of her character. "I didn't know what I was getting into," she told the magazine. "I was just going about my life and doing what producers were asking me to do."
