Jax Taylor and Brittany Cartwright are on surprisingly good terms as they navigate their divorce. That’s not to say The Valley stars have it easy. They must be heartbroken. But there’s a surprising amount of agreement on top of the sadness.

Of course, that doesn’t mean they agree on everything. Nor does any of this mean Jax was a secretly good husband all along. Even though Brittany thinks he’s a good father, she’ll attest to his quality as a husband. (But speaking of fatherhood, at least the two agree on custody).

So, the divorce rages on. Now that Jax has officially filed his response to Brittany’s petition, there are more details to explore in the doomed relationship. Here’s what we know about Jax’s court documents.

On October 2, In Touch reported their findings from obtained court documents. These documents showed that Jax responded to Brittany’s divorce filing apparently all on his own with no lawyer involved. Jax filled out his paperwork by hand with a pen. He cited “irreconcilable differences” as his reasons for agreeing with Brittany’s initial filing.

For those who don’t recall, “irreconcilable differences” were Brittany’s words in her filing. Jax could not be clearer in his agreement. As for other notable details from the docs, Jax disputed Brittany’s asserted date of separation. Brittany claimed she split from Jax in January, whereas, Jax wrote that the official date was September 26.

Granted, the date dispute seemed to be the only major disagreement. Jax agreed that Brittany should have primary custody of Cruz. He also did not check any boxes to terminate spousal support. However, he also wrote that the two could work out the specifics at a later date. Jax also listed a separate property in his filing, described as a “home.”
