THE VALLEY star Brittany Cartwright has been spotted getting flirty while out at Jax Taylor’s bar after he checked into a treatment facility.
Jax is seeking mental health treatment after posting about healing online, though he did not share any further details about his decision.
Brittany, 35, was spotted at Jax’s Studio City, the bar her husband opened in October 2023, smiling while chatting with a mystery man.
She wore a denim romper and had her long hair down initially but slipped it into a bun after a short time.
The Valley star stood close to the man, who leaned into her as they talked and rested a hand on the back of the chair she was sitting on.
Brittany and the same man were seen chatting outside the bar as well.
The sighting comes days after Jax checked into a mental health facility.
TMZ confirmed the news last week.
“Jax has always been candid about his mental health struggles, especially during the past few months on his podcast,” his rep told the outlet.
“He has made the decision to seek in-patient treatment. This is a particularly sensitive time for him and his family. They ask for privacy and respect until he is ready to speak more on this matter.”
Jax didn’t give fans a heads up about his decision to seek treatment, but had posted about “healing” on his Instagram Story days earlier.

“Thank you all for coming to our weekly #watchparty and a special thanks to our karaoke queen @dinarenee! Every Monday @jaxstudiocity!”
IT’S OVER
Jax and Brittany announced their separation in February.
In June, fans speculated that they may have reconciled after photos obtained by The U.S. Sun showed them spending a day at the beach with their three-year-old Cruz.
The pair appeared to be in good spirits during the outing, with Jax and Brittany staying focused on their son.
Fans were shocked to see them together after Jax had been spending time with Paige Woolen.
He also accused Brittany of “sleeping with” someone else in a post on social media, which he later deleted.
“You may want to ask Brittany who she’s been sleeping with for the past 4 months….” Jax shared on X, which fans spotted before he could remove the post.
