To the outside world and their friends, Jax and Brittany have an idyllic family life living with their 2-year-old son, Cruz, however, things are far from perfect for these former “Vanderpump Rules” stars. While Jax is aiming to diversify his family’s finances with a new bar and company, Brittany is struggling with a lack of self-confidence and attempting to reignite the couple’s flame. The Valley is home to Jax and Brittany, and with their relatives across the country, their friends have become family.  They often find themselves the glue that holds their group of friends together.

As they continue to work towards their shared goal of starting a family, questions begin to arise about the strength and authenticity of their relationship. When Kristen makes some damaging accusations about another couple in the group, she finds herself in hot water as the group takes sides. Can Kristen move past her “pot-stirring” old ways, or will bad habits get in the way of all of her relationships?

Jason and Janet have their first baby on the way, and they couldn’t be more excited.
