The Valley was the reality TV gift that keeps on giving. Vanderpump Rules alums Jax Taylor and Brittany Cartwright’s marriage imploded while the show was filming. Jax, in a bid to take care of his mental health, checked into an inpatient rehab facility for a month. Now he is out and filming Season 2 with The Valley cast. Well, except for Brittany, who is trying to avoid him like the plague. And now Zack Wickham, Brittany’s bestie, seems to be coming for Jax. Can’t we all just get along? Kidding!
Is Zack Wickham implying that Jax Taylor is “a worse person” since leaving rehab?
Jax revealed that while in rehab, he received a surprising diagnosis. “After many years of knowing something was wrong but not knowing exactly what it was, I recently learned that I was diagnosed with Bipolar Disorder and PTSD,” he previously shared.
However, Brittany was done dealing with all of Jax’s antics, and she filed for divorce. And the cherry on top? She reportedly had him served with papers at his bar, Jax’s Studio City, where he was filming. She is earning that Bravo paycheck! Now Brittany is focused on herself and being a great mom to their son, Cruz.
But Brittany’s bestie Zack doesn’t seem impressed with Jax’s journey. “Riddle me this … how is it possible you come out of rehab a worse person than when you went in?” Zack posted on X, formerly known as Twitter. Well, it certainly seems like he is referencing Jax. And there is zero doubt that Zack has Brittany’s back in this situation.
And while the rest of the cast headed off to Hawaii, Jax hosted a Bachelorette viewing party at his bar. Was it karma for stealing those sunglasses in Hawaii years ago on Pump Rules? Or perhaps Jax is just putting his mental health first right now…
The Valley is streaming on Peacock.
