The latest news in the world of celebrity coupledom is about Kristen Cavallari cozying up to Chicago Bears quarterback, Jay Cutler. What Kristen, former reality TV star of Laguna Beach and The Hills doesn’t know, however, is that she might have her work cut out for her.

Kristen is a Fire Tiger, born in the year 1987, while her new beau is a 1983-born Water Pig.  What does that mean for their budding romance? While there may be a bit of trouble in paradise, the two can probably form a lasting relationship if they work on their differences.

Tigers are notorious for their independence. If you’ve ever seen Kristen in action, you’ve probably noticed that she doesn’t take orders from anyone. As a Tiger, it’s important for her to blaze her own path and run around town whenever—and with whomever—she pleases. As a Pig, Jay might feel a bit slighted if his new lady isn’t willing to stick around to cheer him on during games or eat dinner with his family. Pigs value love, connection, and steady support from their partners, which can sometimes be hard for Tigers to maintain. When a Tiger feels trapped or restricted, look out. Putting Kristen in a cage could make her want to flee, and fast! Yes, I’m sure she’ll love all the attention and adoration that Pigs freely give, but if she can’t return the favor, Jay will probably move on to a chipper cheerleader who will love him unconditionally.

What can these two do to make it work? Tigers need plenty of freedom in order to feed their curiosity, so Jay will have to give his Hollywood starlet the room to roam. Conversely, Kristen will have to be generous with her time and affection to feed the Pig’s hunger for love. Both signs can be magnetically attractive, so a romance between them might actually be the best kind of relationship. The Pig can help the Tiger learn to appreciate creature comforts a bit more. If Jay can get Kristen to slow down for a quiet evening with good wine, sensual food, and soft music, she might be charmed. On the other hand, if Kristen can convince her quarterback cutie to jet off to Mexico for a weekend of scuba diving, he might fall for her sense of adventure.

In this love match, Kristen’s Fire element conflicts with Jay’s Water sign. Translation? Even though sparks may fly fast, things will probably fizzle out soon enough. Time will tell for this celebrity couple. Things don’t look rosy, but maybe they’ll prove us wrong.
