Reality TV stars Brittany Cartwright and Jax Taylor recently faced rumors of infidelity, with Taylor being accused of cheating on his wife of nearly five years. The speculation arose during an episode of 'Vanderpump Rules,' where fellow cast members alleged that Taylor was involved with other women.
However, Taylor vehemently denied the accusations, attributing the rumors to his former friend Katie Maloney, whom he accused of spreading false information. He explained that a photo of him with another woman at a nightclub event in Atlantic City led to unfounded speculation.
Cartwright, Taylor's wife, also defended him, clarifying that the woman in the photo was a colleague he was working with, along with the bar owner's wife. Despite clearing Taylor's name, Cartwright expressed her disappointment in him, citing his lack of effort in their relationship.
The couple, known for their tumultuous past on 'Vanderpump Rules,' announced their separation, with Cartwright moving out of their shared home and removing Taylor's last name from her social media profile. She emphasized the importance of co-parenting their two-year-old son, Cruz, while taking time apart to evaluate their relationship.
Although Taylor had a history of infidelity, including a past affair with a former co-star, the couple tied the knot in 2019 and welcomed their son in 2021. They are set to appear in the upcoming reality TV spinoff 'The Valley,' despite their separation.
The cameras have resumed filming for the show following the couple's announcement, capturing the challenges and dynamics of their evolving relationship. The premiere of 'The Valley' is scheduled for March 19, offering viewers a glimpse into the personal lives of Cartwright and Taylor post-separation.
