AceShowbiz - Kristin Cavallari is mourning the loss of her brother Michael. The 30-year-old man was found dead roughly two weeks after police began searching for him when his Honda Civic was found abandoned off the highway in Utah with the airbag deployed.
"We want to thank everyone for their love, support and prayers during this very difficult time," Kristin said. "We have just been informed by the authorities my brother's body has been found. This is a very painful time and we are still processing it all. We kindly ask everyone please respect our privacy during our time of grieving."
Just a few days ago, the 28-year-old mother of three posted a childhood picture of her hanging out with him seaside. "We remain hopeful and I will share any news that we receive," Jay Cutler's wife wrote back then.
The cause of Michael's passing is still unclear, but he was arrested several days before vanishing. According to a source, Michael had always been a troubled kid. Despite his drama, Kristin was always very protective of him. "She was always trying to help him," a source told PEOPLE. "He had been trying to produce reality shows awhile ago, but it didn't work out."
