AceShowbiz - Reality TV star Brittany Cartwright, 35, seems to be embracing a single-girl summer as she navigates her separation from estranged husband Jax Taylor, 44. Cartwright was recently spotted in Los Angeles on June 1, wearing a bright green romper and notably absent of her wedding ring.
This appearance comes just a week after Taylor was seen having a lunch with Paige Woolen at the Granville Cafe.
The couple, who share a three-year-old son named Cruz Michael Cauchi, announced their separation in February after four years of marriage. Cartwright revealed on their joint podcast, "When Reality Hits", "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."
Despite their separation, both Cartwright and Taylor attended the 2024 White House Correspondents' Dinner in April, though not together. Cartwright described their current dynamic using the metaphor of "same hotel, different rooms" and emphasized that they remain "friendly."
In an interview with Entertainment Tonight, Taylor shared, "We're just trying to figure things out. I've given you real-time, I don't know what's going to happen." He also addressed rumors of infidelity, clarifying that their split was due to communication issues rather than cheating.
Cartwright has been vocal about what needs to change for any potential reconciliation. In an interview with Us Weekly, she noted, "Things are in his hands if he's going to fix some things in our relationship, so we will see." She emphasized that Taylor needs to attend therapy and make a concerted effort to respect her and their relationship more.
Taylor, on the other hand, has made attempts to better himself since the split, admitting, "I am definitely working on myself right now." Although he misses Cartwright, he remains unsure if they will reconcile. "The separation has definitely been good for me, but I do miss her. So, I don't know, we'll see if she'll take me back," he added.
Taylor revealed the estranged couple's decision to date other people, calling it their attempt to explore all options before making any final decisions regarding their marriage. Taylor stated, "We have a couple of rules with it, but this is what we are exploring."
As young audiences watch these developments unfold, it becomes clear that both Cartwright and Taylor are on a journey of self-discovery and growth, whether that leads them back to each other or onto separate paths remains to be seen.
