Soon after Jax shared the picture on his Instagram, his estranged wife Brittany Cartwright took action. She decided to unfollow both Jax and Lori from her Instagram account. 

Why did ‘Vanderpump Rules’ star Jax Taylor and Brittany Cartwright split?

Despite rumors suggesting infidelity as the cause of their separation, Cartwright clarified that it was actually a lack of physical intimacy that prompted her decision to leave her estranged husband, according to Business Insider. To salvage their relationship, Cartwright expressed her desire to reignite the physical aspect of their connection. However, she emphasized that if they were unable to restore that intimacy, reconciliation would be unlikely.

"We've been together nine years, and people stop appreciating and take you for granted after some time — and that should never happen in a marriage," Cartwright told PageSix. Furthermore, Cartwright disclosed that she had requested her estranged husband to take specific actions to address their relationship issues, including seeking therapy. However, she noted that he had yet to fulfill these requests, indicating a lack of effort on his part to address their concerns.

‘Vanderpump Rules’ stars Brittany Cartwright and Jax Taylor were trying for second baby before split

Months before their separation, Jax Taylor and Brittany Cartwright were seen on an episode of Vanderpump Rules discussing their desire to expand their family. In the episode, Brittany visited Scheana Shay and talked about their plans to have a second baby. This indicated that, despite facing challenges in their relationship such as rumors of infidelity, they were actively trying to conceive another child.

However, Jax wasn't in favor of having another child, which also contributed to their decision to separate. Brittany Cartwright mentioned that they disagreed on whether to have a second baby, indicating a difference in their desires for expanding their family.
