Jax Taylor and Brittany Cartwright ‘SPLIT’! Vanderpump Rules couple announce separation after four years of marriage: ‘We are taking time apart’

Former Vanderpump Rules stars Jax Taylor and Brittany Cartwright have announced they currently separated and ‘taking time apart’ after four years of marriage. 

Brittany, 35, announced the news this week on their joint podcast When Reality Hits, confirming: ‘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.’ 

However, Brittany also later hinted that the ‘split’ could be temporary, as she asked fans to ‘pray for us,’ and added that she believes ‘everything will be just fine’ 

The beloved Bravo stars tied the knot in a fairy-tale themed wedding ceremony on June 2019 in Kentucky after a year-long engagement. 

But it seems as though the fairy-tale is over, at least for now. 

‘Many of you guys have been asking me about Jax and I and our relationship,’ Brittany said in the podcast episode released Thursday.

The star – who shares a two-year-old son, Cruz, with Jax, 44 – added: ‘I just think it’s important to be real and honest with you guys because we’ve shared so much of our lives with you guys.’

Brittany then specifically referenced some issues the pair have been having.

‘On my last podcast I alluded to many marriages go through rocky times. Yes, marriages in general are very hard and I’ve had a particularly rough year this past year. 

Going on to suggest they’ve now temporarily split, she said: ‘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.’ 

Admitting that the split is ‘still very hard to talk about’ she added that she is just ‘taking one day at a time.’ 

‘I don’t know what the future holds, but right now my focus is on being the best mom to Cruz,’ Brittany added.
