Jax Taylor Stands Up for Brittany Amid Cocaine Addiction Confession 3.
Imagine being the star of a reality show only to find that your personal demons are now a public spectacle. Well, welcome to the lives of Jax Taylor and Brittany Cartwright. In a surprising twist, Jax recently defended his estranged wife Brittany after revealing his long-standing cocaine addiction, which he claims plagued their five-year marriage. Now that’s what I call adding fuel to the divorce fire!
In a candid moment during his podcast, “Inside the Mind of a Man,” the 45-year-old reality star expressed his desire for Brittany’s happiness, stating, “I don’t really care what anybody thought except for Brittany.” How noble! He acknowledged that while Brittany knew about his struggles, hearing him publicly admit to them must have been a gut punch. Jax, ever the self-aware partner, recognized the emotional toll his addiction took on Brittany, declaring, “She has gone through the most out of all of this.” Isn’t it just delightful when a man realizes what a woman has endured because of his choices?
But wait, there’s more. Jax also took a bold stance against anyone trying to vilify Brittany during their tumultuous split, making it clear that she’s not to blame for his actions. “This is in no way, shape or form her fault at all,” he insisted. Cue the audience gasping in surprise! He commended her as an “amazing mother” and acknowledged the myriad of other issues in their relationship that contributed to their downfall—though he left those details tantalizingly vague.
Brittany, for her part, had some choice words of her own in response to Jax’s confession. In a statement to People, she expressed her relief that he was finally owning up to his addiction but also voiced her skepticism about his recovery, calling his treatment plan “the bare minimum.” Ouch! Sounds like trust isn’t the only thing that’s been shattered.
As their divorce saga unfolds, fans will get an inside look when the second season of “The Valley” premieres in April, but one must wonder: can any good come from such a trainwreck of a relationship? Only time will tell, but for now, let’s raise a glass—preferably one that doesn’t come with a side of substance abuse.
