Brittany Cartwright has made it clear that her ex-husband Jax Taylor hasn’t shown any signs of change after his time in rehab. Taylor, who is 45 years old, checked into an inpatient facility in late July to address his mental health struggles during the turbulent period of his split from Cartwright. He completed 30 days of treatment but Cartwright, 35, is not convinced he made any meaningful progress. During her appearance on Bravo’s “Hot Mic” podcast, she expressed her skepticism, stating, “I don’t feel like he changed at all in those 30 days. A lot of rage texting was still happening while he was in rehab.”
Cartwright elaborated on her observations, explaining that if Taylor could spend seven hours a day in therapy and still find time to hurl insults at her, it suggested he wasn’t truly committed to changing. “If you’re in therapy and still calling me names and sending rage texts, then you’re obviously not ever going to change,” she remarked.
Despite their rocky past, the former couple shares a three-year-old son named Cruz, and Cartwright emphasizes that she has no regrets about ending their marriage. “I’m so glad I did. I’m not changing my mind. I’m so happy with this decision,” she declared during the podcast, recalling the moment she realized their relationship was untenable.
The couple tied the knot in June 2019, a ceremony that aired on “Vanderpump Rules.” However, both announced their exit from the show in December 2020. They welcomed their son Cruz in April 2021. By February of this year, Cartwright shared on their podcast that they decided to take some time apart to focus on their individual well-being. She eventually filed for divorce from Taylor on August 27 after four years of marriage.
In the wake of their split, Taylor publicly revealed that he had been diagnosed with bipolar disorder and post-traumatic stress disorder while in rehab. He stated that his decision to seek treatment was driven by a desire to improve himself for Cruz. Reflecting on their separation, he acknowledged, “I understand why she did it. I’ll always love and care for Brittany. She’s the mother of my beautiful son.” Taylor also expressed hope that they might one day become close friends again.
This ongoing saga between Cartwright and Taylor continues to unfold, leaving fans eagerly watching how their relationship will evolve post-divorce.
