Jax Taylor’s shock business move after ‘stepping away’ from The Valley to focus on sobriety and co-parenting
Jax Taylor is taking cutting ties with his eponymous bar, Jax’s Studio City.
When attentive followers observed that the sign of the business was no longer there, a representative for the celebrity clarified to TMZ that Jax decided to sever ties with the company to prioritize his recovery from addiction and improve his psychological well-being.
The rep explained that the decision was a well-thought-out and vital move aimed at focusing on his recovery from alcoholism and improving his psychological well-being.
Jax, 46, and his estranged wife Brittany Cartwright, 36, opened the watering hole in October 2023.
Ryan Bailey, a pop culture commentator, posted a picture of Jax’s Studio City location earlier than when news broke about the reality star’s departure on Saturday. Notably, the iconic lightbulb-adorned sign was absent in the image.
Thanks to @britacular for obtaining a picture for me. The sign has been removed. Is a new sign being installed, a rebranding taking place, or something else?” This is what Bailey, the host of the podcast ‘So Bad It’s Good’, pointed out on Instagram.

News about Jax’s bar broke out following his announcement that he wouldn’t be participating in season three of The Valley.
In response to a demanding year filled with numerous heartfelt discussions with my colleagues and production staff, I’ve decided to take a break for the upcoming season, as stated in a communication acquired by Us Weekly.
Currently, it’s crucial that I prioritize my recovery, mental well-being, and co-parenting responsibilities. This period of reflection is essential for my personal growth, particularly as a father to our son, Cruz, as I strive to be the best possible version of myself.
In the latest installment of the Bravo reality show, it was Brittany who claimed that Jax had resumed drinking only a few days after completing his month-long stay at a rehabilitation center.
According to a source familiar with the situation, Daily Mail reports that Jax and Bravo held talks together, and Bravo acknowledges and endorses his choice.
In the latest installment, Jax dropped by Brittany’s temporary residence to talk about setting up parental boundaries in their shared responsibility of caring for their 4-year-old boy, Cruz.
Yet, what started as a friendly conversation soon escalated into an argument, with the once distant pair raising their voices in disagreement.

During the heated custody dispute, Brittany openly confessed her concerns about his sobriety during a private conversation.
In March, Jax openly disclosed the alarming quantity of cocaine he used following Cartwright’s departure the previous year. This revelation left viewers shocked when, in a candid moment, he hurled a harsh insult at his estranged spouse, exposing the troubled state of their relationship.
According to Cartwright’s assertion, it seemed that only a few days had passed since Jax left the facility before he returned to the bars and resumed his party lifestyle.
‘It’s just so disappointing, like, he did not take anything seriously,’ she added.

Cartwright also accused Taylor of having others cover for him when he said he was drinking water.
At that moment, she clarified her intention to shield him from harm since she was concerned he might face difficulties or consequences.
If he isn’t speaking up about it, then who should I be if not me? I gave it a try, and now I understand that much.” She expressed this.
I deeply cared for that man and put considerable effort into helping him improve himself. But it’s perplexing, how does one maintain a connection with someone who refuses to change, even for the sake of yourself and your child?
