Brittany Cartwright accuses Jax Taylor of violence and verbal abuse during explosive Reunion episode
According to Cartwright, the altercation turned violent when Taylor allegedly threw a coffee table that hit her knee, causing immediate bruising. 'He threw both bar stools, he threw my Stanley cup and broke it,' she told Cohen. 'He threw my phone and broke it. He threw my laptop and broke it.' Cartwright also accused Taylor of pushing her into rose bushes during the confrontation.
Taylor denied the accusations, but Cartwright asserted that the evidence is captured on their Ring doorbell camera, which she claimed some cast members have seen.
The couple, who married in 2019 and share a four-year-old son, Cruz, separated in February 2024. Cartwright has since filed for divorce and shared that her involvement with their friend Julian helped her regain lost self-worth. 'He made me feel sexy, he made me feel beautiful,' she said, emphasizing that their relationship was casual but emotionally significant. She also revealed Taylor had repeatedly body-shamed her, recalling that he once referred to her as a 'tree trunk' because of her stretch marks.
The reunion episode also featured a series of heated personal exchanges. Cartwright criticized Taylor's sexual behavior, claiming he had been with OnlyFans models. In response, Taylor accused her of being involved with men who date adult entertainers and claimed to have found 'condoms all over the floor' at their home. Cartwright responded, 'At least I use them.'
Cartwright noted during a recent Watch What Happens Live appearance that their divorce has been delayed due to incomplete documentation from both parties.

Matty Healy comforts mother Denise Welch amid backlash for Taylor Swift jibe outside LA restaurant
Matty Healy was photographed comforting his mother, Denise Welch, in an emotional moment outside a restaurant in West Hollywood on Thursday. The 1975 frontman and his mother sat on the pavement as Welch was seen dabbing her eyes and leaning on her son's shoulder while he smoked a cigarette. Photo: Backgrid The emotional exchange came shortly after Welch made public remarks about Healy's former relationship with Taylor Swift during an appearance on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen. Reflecting on Swift's 2024 album The Tortured Poets Department, which is widely believed to reference Healy, Welch said: 'Obviously, on pain of death can I talk about that episode, but not being her mother-in-law is a role that I am glad that I lost.' She added: 'Not that I have anything against her at all. It was just — it was tricky.' A source told TMZ the tearful scene was related to a private family issue, though the timing closely followed her public comments on Swift. Welch also remarked: 'She — listen, you're not allowed to say anything, and then she writes a whole album about it.' Healy dated Swift briefly in 2023 following her split from Joe Alwyn. Their relationship ended after a few weeks, reportedly due to scheduling and incompatibility. Healy has since become engaged to model Gabbriette Bechtel in June 2024. Neither Healy nor Welch has issued an additional statement on the matter.

Courtney Taylor makes dramatic debut in Bosch spinoff 'Ballard' as Samira Parker on Prime Video
Courtney Taylor has taken on her first leading role in a drama series with Ballard, a new Bosch spinoff streaming on Prime Video. Known for her comedic roles in Insecure and Abbott Elementary, Taylor now steps into the crime procedural genre, portraying Samira Parker. In an interview with Shadow and Act, Taylor spoke about her transition into drama, calling the experience both challenging and rewarding. 'As much as comedy feels like home, I'm so happy that drama has found a way into my career,' she said. Ballard centres on Detective Renée Ballard, played by Maggie Q, and her work in the Los Angeles Police Department's cold case unit. Taylor's character, Samira Parker, is described as 'wary, impulsive and tough,' with a strong sense of justice. She explained that the show highlights underfunded investigative units and the personal commitment of staff, most of whom are volunteers. 'Everybody else is here… just because they're passionate,' Taylor said. Reflecting on her journey, Taylor shared how each role has shaped her confidence. 'I think I've spent a lot of time doubting me,' she said, adding that opportunities in her career have helped her build trust in her abilities. She also emphasised the importance of being adaptable and collaborative on set. Taylor, who has also starred in Neon on Netflix, noted that her creative goal is to tell stories that centre people of colour and offer varied perspectives. Ballard season one is now available for streaming on Prime Video.
