Jax Taylor and wife Brittany Cartwright of Vanderpump Rules fame are separating following a particularly rough year, the couple noted. It all started on February 29, when Cartwright used the final moments of the couple’s joint podcast, When Reality Hits, to give listeners an update on their four-year marriage.
“So many of you guys have been asking me about Jax and I and our relationship,” she began. “I just think it is important to be real and honest with you guys because we have shared so much of our life with you guys. I don’t want it to seem like I am lying or anything like that. So I think it is important for me to say this.”
Cartwright went on to explain her decision to move out of their shared home.
“Jax and I are taking time apart and I made the decision to move into another home to take some space for the sake of my mental health,” she continued. “I won’t get into too many details right now because this is still really hard to talk about.”
Shortly after airing the podcast episode, Taylor gave Page Six an additional update on the situation. In the time between when the revelatory episode was recorded and published, seemingly, Cartwright may have moved back in.
“We’re together. We’re living in our home right now,” he told the outlet, noting that although Cartwright was staying separately “in a house for a while” she is now “back home” while the pair “figure out” next steps.
“It’s not evil or nastiness,” Taylor added. “It’s just two people that you now are hitting a 10-year mark in their [relationship]. We’re just spending some time apart and just trying to re-assess, you know, our situation. We have a child involved and we just wanna do what’s best for our kid.”
