One year after announcing her separation from Jax Taylor, Brittany Cartwright gave fans a surprise update. The former couple co-parent three-year-old son Cruz together. The Valley star previously shared that dealing with her ex-husband, even in that capacity, has not been easy. Luckily, the former Vanderpump Rules duo are functioning better for the sake of their son.
Brittany also teased events “that happened” between herself and Jax that made their cohesion as parents a challenge. The Valley fans will get more insight in the coming season, which has yet to announce a premiere.
Jax Taylor and Brittany Cartwright are trying “to push through”
Brittany teased the issue on her When Reality Hits podcast, via @vanderpodrecaps on Instagram. She said co-parenting became “even more difficult” after a series of events involving Jax.
“There’s a lot of things about Jax and I that you guys will find out throughout the [new] season that I can’t really talk on right now, but it’s been really hard for me,” she shared. “There’s been things that happened within the past couple of months that you guys will find out about that made it even more difficult, but we’re really, really trying to push through.”
But the former SUR server revealed that matters have improved with Jax in the past month or so. However, Brittany takes the positives with a grain of salt.
“I think within the past couple of weeks, he’s really trying to step up and be better. And I’m hoping it continues on that way,” she explained. “I’m always just waiting for things to crash because that’s just been my life lately … Things can be good one moment, and then things can be bad the next.”
Jax’s behavior changes when they are “getting along.” Brittany said that her ex-husband will “come over” to their former marital home to help out. After initially moving out to an Airbnb, the Kentucky native reclaimed the space and lives there with Cruz
