In a jaw-dropping moment that has reality TV fans buzzing, Vanderpump Rules star Brittany Cartwright publicly slammed her estranged husband Jax Taylor on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen. During her late-April appearance, Brittany didn’t hold back—she rated Jax a mere 2 or 3 out of 10 when asked about his bedroom performance, adding bluntly that he "has no stamina."
The comment sent shockwaves through social media, sparking intense debate. While some fans applauded Brittany for her honesty, others criticized her for airing intimate details—especially as the pair continue to co-parent their son Cruz, who is currently receiving treatment for autism.
But just when it seemed like Brittany’s bombshell would be the end of it, things took another dramatic turn. Paige Woolen, the woman believed to be Jax’s new flame, made what many interpreted as a fiery and public clapback. Though she hasn’t addressed Brittany’s remarks directly, Paige drew headlines for jokingly announcing “I’m pregnant!” while holding an alcoholic drink at a public birthday party—an event Jax also attended.
The party took place at Jax’s Studio City bar for Jeremy Madix (Ariana Madix’s brother), and Paige’s cheeky announcement—delivered loudly, and possibly sarcastically—was seen by many as a subtle dig at Brittany’s bedroom critique. Known for her spicy social media presence and her Instagram page @dudesinthedm (where she calls out shady men), Paige is no stranger to controversy—and this move only fueled speculation.
Jax, for his part, denied being in a relationship with Paige, writing on X (formerly Twitter), “I’m not dating anyone and I wish people knew the full story. It’s not what it seems.” Despite his denials, the two have been seen together on multiple occasions—grabbing lunch and attending events—raising eyebrows about the nature of their relationship.
Meanwhile, Brittany is sticking to her statements. On her podcast When Reality Hits, she elaborated on the breakdown of their marriage, claiming that they had only been intimate “twice in a year” before separating. She also expressed frustration over Jax’s repeated absence from key moments in their son’s life.
While much of the drama revolves around Jax’s alleged shortcomings in the bedroom, what matters most to fans is whether he and Brittany can move past their personal issues to co-parent Cruz in a healthy way.
With Brittany and Paige seemingly exchanging blows in public, and Jax stuck in the middle, this love triangle has all the makings of a reality TV firestorm. Expect more drama to unfold in Season 2 of The Valley, where nothing stays secret for long.
