Months
before
Jax
Taylor
and
Brittany
Cartwright
announced
their
separation,
the
Vanderpump
Rules alums
were
pumping
the
brakes
on
the
possibility
of
a
potential
divorce.
In
fact,
the
now-estranged
couple
got
brutally
honest
about
their
relationship
problems
during
The
Valley‘s
April
16
episode,
which
was
filmed
last
summer,
but
agreed
divorce
was
off
the
table.
After
Brittany
enjoyed
a
girls
night
out
with
her
Bravo
costars,
Jax
confronted
the
35-year-old
for
coming
home
hungover.
“I
don’t
understand
why
you
can’t
go
out
and
have
a
couple
drinks,”
he
told
her. “Why
do
you
have
to
go
out
to
the
point
where
you
have
to
throw
up?”
However,
she
called
out
his
hypocrisy,
firing
back, “That’s
exactly
what
you
do
too.”
In
a
confessional,
Jax—who
shares
3-year-old
son
Cruz
with
Brittany—admitted, “I’m
a
little
worried
because,
not
only
is
she
my
wife,
she’s
a
mother,
and
we
need
ya.
If
you
keep
this
up,
you’re
gonna
destroy
your
body.
There’s
other
ways
to
have
a
good
time.
We
live
in
California,
you
can
smoke
a
joint.
You
can
do
other
things.”
