Brittany Cartwright and Jax Taylor‘s divorce has been a “long time coming.” A source told People leaving Jax is “something Brittany knew she had to do for the best interest of herself and her son.”
Breaking the cycle:
The insider noted that “In order [for Brittany] to move forward and put a stop to this tumultuous cycle they’ve been living in,” she needed to cut ties with The Valley‘s villain.
“There’s a lot that has transpired over the past few months that she could not look past,” spilled the source. “This decision wasn’t made lightly but she feels adamant that it was the right one.”
Jax (who doesn’t believe in divorce):
It was alleged that the Jax’s Studio City namesake “is feeling mixed emotions,” but “knows this is the right decision.”
Ultimately, Jax “is sad that things ended up the way they have. It’s been an emotional month for him and he’s trying to stay strong for his son.” Never forget, Jax left a month-long in-patient treatment center less than a week ago.
What does this mean for the future of the former couple’s Bravo TV show?
The former Vanderpump Rules stars reportedly can’t be in the same room as one another. Brittany was supportive of Jax’s decision to seek help for their son’s sake. However, going forward, she’s not interested in having anything to do with him.”
“At this time, the pair aren’t capable of being in the same room together or being in communication with one another.” Allegedly, “Brittany has reached her limit and remains strong to do what is best for herself and her son. During this time, she’s received support from her family and friends.”
