As a die-hard fan of Vanderpump Rules, I’ve been following Brittany and Jax’s rollercoaster ride of a relationship since day one. Watching their highs and lows, their love and arguments, it felt like watching a real-life soap opera. But this time, it seems like they’re writing the script themselves.


On a sunny Thursday in Los Angeles, Brittany Cartwright affectionately kissed her three-year-old son Cruz as they ventured out together.

35-year-old Brittany kept a laid-back appearance while strolling with her son, sporting a ‘mom’ emblazoned sweatshirt and comfortable gray pants.

The star’s sighting comes weeks after she filed for divorce from husband Jax Taylor and requested primary legal and physical custody of Cruz.

Last week, Jax broke his silence on her decision to file for divorce, saying that it was the ‘right decision for their family.’

Jax, following his latest stay at a mental health facility where he was diagnosed with both bipolar disorder and PTSD, stated that the decision to file was beneficial for their entire family.

The Vanderpump Rules star, 45, spoke out during his When Really Hits podcast episode.

Adding: ‘I understand why she did [it]. I’ll always love and care for Brittany. She’s the mother of my beautiful son [Cruz].’

Jax and Brittany were married for five years, welcoming son Cruz in 2021.

He joked that he would ‘make an excellent ex-husband.’

Jax went on: “This past week has been incredibly tough. Those who have experienced a divorce can surely empathize with the challenges it presents.

He said he wants their relationship to ‘be amicable,’ adding that eventually ‘hopefully [become] really, really good friends one day.’

Last month, Brittany submitted the divorce papers, marking the end of her five-year marriage, according to the legal records we’ve reviewed at DailyMail.com.

She cited irreconcilable differences as her reason for ending the marriage.

In a splendid ceremony featured on Vanderpump Rules, Cartwright and Taylor got married, and they now share a three-year-old son named Cruz.

Brittany seeks sole legal and physical custody of the child, but she’s willing to accommodate visitation rights for her former partner.

Moreover, Cartwright aims to prevent the court from granting either party spousal maintenance.

Cartwright cited their date of separation as January 24.

Brittany felt like filing for divorce was a ‘long time coming,’ per People’s source.

The reality star knew ‘she had to’ file for divorce ‘for the best interest of herself and her son.’

To progress and halt the chaotic pattern they’ve been caught in, the Vanderpump Rules decided to take action, as a source revealed.

‘The source noted: “Over the last several months, there have been many events she finds hard to overlook.”‘

According to the source, this choice wasn’t taken casually; instead, she is firmly convinced that it was the appropriate call.

In simpler terms, we can say that the beginning of their relationship between the couple was depicted in the Bravo show “Vanderpump Rules,” and the dissolution of their marriage was shown in the spin-off series, “The Valley.” Cartwright shared that she had left their shared home with their son Cruz.

Speaking candidly, I’ve experienced quite a bit with Jax this past summer. Our troubles were brewing even before the cameras started rolling, but once they stopped, it felt like our problems were spiraling out of control, escalating more and more as the days went by.

Approximately six weeks back, I parted ways with Jax. Due to his reluctance to vacate our home, I’ve been staying at an Airbnb with Cruz instead, as she shared in the show’s final episode.

As a lifestyle advisor, I’d put it this way: I observed that Jax’s unwillingness to move out signaled a level of self-centeredness, which made our household environment unhealthy and ultimately led me to decide that it was in the best interest for myself and our son Cruz to remove ourselves from that situation.

Brittany said Jax would come with a hangover and in the morning would be ‘mean as a snake.’

Brittany remarked, “That’s when I began to see all the things he had done to me. It was as if a massive weight had suddenly fallen on me.

Brittany stated in their time together that Jax was unfaithful, showed disregard for her, and made her feel embarrassed.

Brittany expressed, “I’ve endured much suffering in this relationship, and I find myself unable to handle it any longer.
