On Wednesday, Brittany Cartwright found two very public ways to express her displeasure at her estranged husband Jax Taylor's publicity blitz about their divorce and his cocaine addiction in order to promote his new podcast and 12-date tour.
The 36-year-old reality star slipped her AirSculpted 'revenge body' into a fishnet tank top over a $620 Fendi 'Timeless' swimsuit and posed for a selfie on the balcony of her Miami Beach hotel with the caption: 'Me not giving a s***.'
Brittany's 45-year-old ex claimed in his new Us Weekly cover story that he's still 'walking on eggshells' around her and 'angry with some of the things she's done' while wondering why they 'didn't go to therapy' and why she asked him 'to have another kid last year.'
Cartwright - who filed for divorce from Jax on August 27 after four years of marriage - responded by commenting on Us Weekly's Instagram post with two laughing emojis and a coffin emoji.
'Miami is much needed' for The Valley star, who glammed up for a fancy meal in the seaside city.
On Thursday, Brittany relaxed on the beach while enjoying Florida's 80F-degree spring weather.

Taylor hit rock bottom after Cartwright legally separated from him in February 2024, revealing to Us: 'I was in my house by myself for months. I wasn't eating. I was drinking and doing enough cocaine to kill a small horse. I went on a full-on tear.'
The Jax's Studio City owner continued: 'I could probably buy a house for the amount of money I've spent on drugs. It's sickening to me. My parents did not raise this kind of person.'
On March 8, Jax (born Jason Cauchi) announced he was officially 100 days sober from cocaine and alcohol - hinting he had relapsed following his 30-day stint at a rehab last August where he was diagnosed with bipolar disorder, PTSD, and anger issues.
The milestone came four days after Taylor first publicly disclosed his addiction issues on Bravo's Hot Mic podcast: 'I've been dealing with this on and off since I was 23 and now I'm 45.'
The Michigan-born Navy veteran willingly gave the Kentucky native full legal and physical custody of their son Cruz Michael Cauchi, who turns four on April 12.
Brittany is skeptical that Jax can remain sober because 'his behaviors are still alarming and his treatment plan seems to be the bare minimum.'
'I'm trying to navigate this as best as I can for my son and I, but every day is still a challenge and very difficult,' Cartwright told People on March 4.
'Jax has caused an enormous amount of damage and I have very little trust in him at this point. My only hope is that one day, he will be a better person for his son.'
The When Reality Hits podcaster continued: 'His addiction unfortunately has done irreparable damage to my son and I. I've spent years trying to help him. I wish more than anyone I could say how proud I am of him today but I'd be lying. His actions will speak for themselves.'
