Jax Taylor, formerly of Vanderpump Rules, was recently seen out with a mystery woman at a bar in California. This sighting comes after Taylor’s separation from his wife, Brittany Cartwright. The couple announced their separation in February shortly before the premiere of their new show, “The Valley.” Taylor was seen getting close to the unidentified woman at the Oaks Tavern in Sherman Oaks, although they did not display any major PDA. They left the bar together around 1 a.m. Reps for both Taylor and Cartwright did not immediately respond to requests for comment on the situation.
Brittany Cartwright, who is 35 years old, later shared on “Watch What Happens Live” that she was staying in an Airbnb while co-parenting their 2-year-old son, Cruz. She revealed that they decided to separate after a “horrible” fight that led to her “breaking point.” Cartwright explained that it felt like a veil was lifted, and she noticed everything wrong in their relationship. Taylor told “Entertainment Tonight” that the reason for their split was communication issues but assured that he was working on himself as they were trying to figure things out. He expressed that he missed his wife a lot and was uncertain about their future, stating that the separation had been good for him.
Taylor also spoke to E! News about going through personal issues at the time of their breakup and mentioned that their situation was constantly changing. He expressed a desire to get back together with Cartwright but acknowledged the importance of considering what is healthy for them and their son. Despite their joint appearance at the White House Correspondents’ Garden Brunch in April, Cartwright has stated that she is in no rush to reconcile with her estranged husband. The couple seems to be navigating their separation and potential future, with Taylor admitting that he misses her and would like to work towards reconciliation.
Eyewitnesses at the Oaks Tavern reported that Taylor arrived at the bar with a group of friends, including the mystery woman, around 11:30 p.m. Some of his friends later went onstage to perform karaoke while Taylor and his female companion did not show any significant PDA. The pair left the bar together at 1 a.m., sparking speculation about the nature of their relationship. Taylor and Cartwright have not publicly commented on the recent sighting or their current relationship status. With their separation being relatively recent, fans of the couple will have to wait and see how their story unfolds in the coming months.
