It’s been nearly a week since The Valley’s Brittany Cartwright announced that she and Jax Taylor were separating to reevaluate their relationship after nearly five years of marriage.
The mom of one shared the heartbreaking news on the February 29 episode of When Reality Hits with Jax and Brittany. "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," Brittany explained on podcast. "I won’t get into too many details right now because this is still very hard to talk about and I’m taking things one day at a time."
