Brittany Cartwright shared the details of the ‘horrible fight’ she had with estranged husband Jax Taylor that led to their separation.

The Vanderpump Rules star, 35, and her spouse, 44 — who recently celebrated Easter together — announced their separation in February after nearly five years of marriage.

And now Brittany has given insight into what caused her decision, as she told Andy Cohen on Tuesday’s episode of Watch What Happens Live: ‘We just had a horrible fight and it was like a veil was lifted, and I noticed everything wrong.’

‘You know they always say a woman can hit her breaking point and it’s hard to come back from that,’ she added. 

She said the fight was caused by her going out with friend and The Valley co-star Kristen Doute one evening.

‘He kind of woke up one morning and was mad that I went out with Kristen the night before, and kind of made up a story in his own head and started a fight about something that never happened,’ she shared.

‘It got to the point where we fought about everything… it could be about anything at that point,’ she added. 

‘It was just a very toxic situation that I felt like I needed to remove myself from.’ 

As for their current relationship status, she shared: ‘[We’re] still separated. [I’m] still in the Airbnb.’

When Andy asked, ‘Was there infidelity?’ after cast memebrs on the couple’s show The Valley previously hinted that Jax may have cheated on the star, she replied, ‘Not that I’m aware of.’

‘I don’t think so, I really don’t think so,’ she added after a second.

Andy then asked about the speculation from the other cast members about Jax cheating, to which Brittany replied, ‘I did all the digging. We made sure that wasn’t true. Janet from The Valley, she like dove in and was like “no, no, no let’s figure everything out” so we already knew that wasn’t true by that point.’

‘I feel like there’s always rumors about Jax, no matter what,’ she added.

Andy also questioned Brittany about her and Jax’s sex life, after she previously wondered if her spouse was still attracted to her and claimed they ‘never have sex’.

‘You say that the sex had gotten less and less. Can you pinpoint when that happened? Was that after Cruz was born?’

‘A little bit before, kind of like when we made the baby we were good and then, you know,’ she said.

She went on to state that couples therapy is something she has said ‘needs to happen,’ but that they have not gone yet.

The star did give her ex praise when it came to co-parenting their nearly three-year-old son Cruz.

‘Jax is a great father, I’ll give him that. That’s our main priority, no matter what.’

Despite their separation, the duo have been seen together during recent outings in Los Angeles.

On Sunday the pair put their differences aside to come together and spend Easter as a family in Los Angeles.

Earlier this month they arrived separately to a March Madness party at Jax’s eponymous bar and restaurant.

They have also been obligated to spend time together while promoting their new series, The Valley, and as co-parents on their adorable son Cruz, who turns three next month.

Earlier this week, she told DailyMail.com that she’s still ‘very much’ in love with her ‘handsome’ husband and is hoping to expand their family.

Speaking at the premiere party for The Valley, she said: ‘I feel like I see Jax across the room and I’m like, “He looks so handsome.” I still love him very much. It’s a hard time, right? It’s still fresh, so yeah, it’s still fresh.

‘I don’t even know what it would mean for somebody to capture my heart now. I think it just is like, I don’t know. It’s too early to even think about.’

She continued: ‘I am still living in an AirBNB. Still taking my time for myself, trying to figure out what I want to do, if I want to go back into that relationship or if I decide I want to do something else.’

‘And I never, ever, ever thought I would get to that point because I have literally been Jax’s ride or die.’

Brittany previously reconciled with Jax in 2017 after it was revealed that he had cheated on her with their costar Faith Stowers.

She said she ‘stuck by him’ through their tumultuous times but said continuous fighting in front of their young son was the final straw for her to break away.

‘Everybody knows that he did me dirty so many times and I still stuck by him,’ she said. ‘But after having my son, I think it woke me up a little bit and made me realize what I deserve and what he deserves.

Brittany and Jax started dating in 2015. They got engaged in 2018, married in June 2019 and welcomed their son Cruz in 2021; seen in 2021

‘And a happy home is more important than trying to constantly make things work. Cruz doesn’t deserve to see his parents fighting. That’s not okay. And Jax is a great dad. He’s just not a great husband.’

She continued: ‘And I’m not perfect either. I was turning into a b**chy Brittany, which I’m not, because it was just every single thing that he was doing was annoying me, making me mad.

Brittany and Jax started dating in 2015, two years before he admitted to infidelity.

But they stayed together and got engaged in 2018, married in June 2019 and welcomed their son Cruz in 2021.

They remained together until last month, when Brittany revealed that she had separated from her husband during an episode of the their podcast, When Reality Hits.
