Brittany Cartwright and Jax Taylor “haven't been on the same page for a while.”
The 35-year-old reality star announced her split from Jax in February and has now explained the reason behind their separation.
Brittany, who shares 2-year-old Cruz with her estranged husband, told E! News: “The truth is, we've been fighting and disagreeing for a while now and it was becoming a negative space in the house.
“I don't want that for my son. I don't want him to grow up thinking it's normal to live like that.”
Brittany trolled suggestions that Jax, 44, was unfaithful.
However, she admitted that the couple had a “very bad fight” and had to break up.
She said, “Jax didn't cheat on me, but we got into a fight so bad that I decided to pack up and have been staying in an Airbnb since January 24th.”
Earlier this month, Jax claimed that “communication issues” led to his separation from Brittany.
The TV star also denied suggestions that he was unfaithful to his wife.
he told E! News: “We're just having some minor communications issues at the moment. That's it. Nothing else.
“There's no cheating. There's no infidelity anywhere. It's just communication. I know it's shocking, but sometimes people don't get along. That's life.”
Jax and Brittany have tried to maintain a friendly relationship for the sake of their son.
Jax, who married the reality TV star in 2019, said: “It's not easy, but it doesn't affect our business or parenting. We're adults. Just because we can't live together doesn't mean it's okay.” That's not the case,” he said. That means we can't work together.”
