The Valley stars Jax Taylor and Brittany Cartwright announced their separation nearly five months ago. At the time they made it clear that they just needed some time and space apart.
Britt called the time out in late February when she got fed up with Jax’s constant verbal and mental abuse. She was tired of his yelling and the neverending criticism.
Since then, the Vanderpump Rules alums have had ample time to reflect on the future of their marriage. Do they want to be together to raise their three-year-old son Cruz? Do they even want to be married? Apparently, a lot about their relationship is still undecided.
Things are “confusing”
Even though they’ve been separated for months, Jax and Britt are still legally married. “Brittany and I are separated, and we’re just trying to figure it out,” Jax told TMZ. “I’m not dating or anything, so, I don’t know, it’s confusing.” He also added that he “didn’t know” if there would be a reconciliation.
“I actually miss my family a lot because I’ve been gone for the last 12 days,” he said.
On July 11, the couple reunited at Jax’s birthday party. Britt attended the party, though Jax still claims the situation is “confusing.”
Jax and Britt still spend time together
Even though Brittany has reiterated that she and Jax are “still very much separated,” they continue to spend time together for the sake of their son. They both feel it’s important for their son to have two parents who share time with him as a family.
“People ask me all the time … ‘If you’re separated, why do you keep seeing each other?'” Jax said. “Because this is what’s working, and we’re trying to exhaust everything else before we decide to call it quits. We’re trying to live separately, we’re trying to possibly date other people, [and] we’re trying to, you know, figure out what works for us.”
Though Britt’s still living in an Airbnb, she does sometimes stay at the house she and Jax still own together. “We still like to do family things together,” she explained. “I know it seems very weird, but you know, there are other days where we fight really bad, and we can’t even see each other. So it’s very weird, and up and down.”
The Valley is now streaming on Peacock.
