"She was hit by another driver in Chicago," Cavallari's representative Jack Ketsoyan told E! News Thursday night. "She is doing fine and will be discharged from the hospital shortly."

A source told the website that while Cavallari's injuries are not serious, she dislocated her elbow. The 29-year-old former The Hills and Laguna Beach star's husband Jay Cutler, quarterback for the NFL's Chicago Bears, reportedly rushed to the hospital to be at her side once he heard the news.

Luckily, Cavallari's three children weren't inside her vehicle at the time of the car crash. She and Cutler have a two-year-old son Camden, a 20-month old son Jaxon, and a two-month old daughter Saylor.

Cavallari, who also competed on ABC's thirteenth season of Dancing with the Starstragically lost her brother Michael Cavallari at age 30 this past December. He was found dead following a thorough missing-person search.

Michael's 2014 Honda Civic was discovered abandoned the day after Thanksgiving on a remote dirt road in Utah with its engine on and the airbag deployed. There were no traces of him at that time.
