Exclusive photos captured by a paparazzo show Brittany and the unidentified man walking side-by-side, deep in conversation, smiling, and even lightly touching one another’s arms—a level of familiarity that didn’t go unnoticed. An eyewitness told The Valley Star: “They weren’t trying to hide anything. They looked totally comfortable with each other—like they’ve known each other for a while.”
What’s causing even more buzz in The Valley and Vanderpump fandoms is the timing. Brittany’s New York trip had not been made public, and the pictures surfaced just days after she and Jax announced they were stepping back from filming together to “focus on healing.” Now, fans are wondering whether Brittany has already moved on—or at least found someone new to lean on.
Jax Taylor, 44, wasted no time reacting. Within hours of the photos going viral, Jax posted a series of cryptic Instagram Stories. No names, no tags, no direct accusations—but the tension was impossible to miss. One story featured a black screen with an angry emoji. Another was an empty caption over a cocktail glass with the word “cheers” barely visible in the background. Though the posts were quickly deleted, screenshots began circulating across Bravo fan pages within minutes.
A source close to Jax told Daily Pop: “He’s genuinely pissed. Not because Brittany went somewhere—but because she hid it. He wasn’t told she was in New York, and he certainly didn’t know she was meeting anyone. To him, it feels like a slap in the face.”
Brittany, on the other hand, has remained completely silent. She hasn’t posted, commented, or appeared online since the images surfaced. However, an insider revealed that her team is “reworking her media strategy” and that she’s likely to speak out soon—possibly in a talk show appearance or an upcoming episode of The Valley.
As for the mystery man, his identity has not been confirmed, but early whispers suggest he’s not part of the entertainment industry. Instead, he’s allegedly “a gym friend from LA currently working short-term in New York.” Still, online speculation is running wild—from exes and flings to PR stunts for the show’s new season.
One thing is certain: these photos haven’t just stirred a new scandal—they’ve reignited the tension between Brittany and Jax, pushing it to a whole new level. Just when things seemed to be settling down, the storm is starting to build again—in true Bravo fashion.
