A body believed to be that of Michael Cavallari was found Thursday after authorities began a missing person investigation.
Grand County Sheriff's Office
Michael Cavallari, the brother of former Laguna Beach and The Hills star Kristin Cavallari, was found dead Thursday in rural Utah, according to the Grand County Sheriff's Office.
The remains — which have yet to be officially identified — were found in an area of steep, rocky terrain two weeks after the sheriff's office began a missing persons investigation. Cavallari's 2014 Honda Civic was found abandoned on Nov. 27 near a road about five miles south of Interstate 70 in eastern Utah.
Kristin Cavallari, who is married to the Chicago Bears quarterback Jay Cutler, on Monday posted a photo of herself and her brother. She thanked those who had offered support for her family, and added she remained hopeful.
On Thursday, she released a statement to E! News.
"We want to thank everyone for their love, support and prayers during this very difficult time. 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."
According to authorities, investigators remained Thursday afternoon at the remote area where the remains were found. The Office of the Utah Medical Examiner will determine the cause of death.
