Brittany Cartwright shares her thoughts on her estranged husband’s cocaine addiction.
While even Ray Charles can see that Jax Taylor has a serious issue with “pasta,” The Valley Star has finally admitted it the public..and perhaps hisself.
Via Bravo’s Hot Mic podcast, Jax revealed he is now 83 days sober, and has been struggling with substance abuse for over 20 years.
This news isn’t shocking to absolutely anyone who has watched Jax on TV this past decade.
However, his ex-wife is detailing how this affects their co-parenting dynamic with their three-year-old son, Cruz.
Britt’s Response
“I’m glad that he finally admitted to what was really going on,” Brittany revealed exclusively to People.
“For the first time, I can speak openly about the extent of trauma he’s instilled on our family over the years,” she continued.
“I’ve tried desperately to help him without success. I pray that one day he completely knocks this addiction, but I’m skeptical. His behaviors are still alarming and his treatment plan seems to be the bare minimum.”
“I’m trying to navigate this as best as I can for my son and I, but every day is still a challenge and very difficult. Jax has caused an enormous amount of damage and I have very little trust in him at this point.”
Brittany says her only hope is that one day Jax will attempt to be a better person for their son.
Brittany has likely endured a life I wouldn’t wish on my worst enemy. Dealing with Jax’s antics is one thing; but a Jax abusing substances is a whole other beast.
Let’s hope he takes his sobriety seriously and can be the best version of himself for Cruz’s sake.
