Brittany Cartwright gives blunt assessment of Jax Taylor breakup and their love life

Perth Now30-04-2025

Brittany Cartwright has claimed Jax Taylor was usually "a two or a three" in the bedroom.
The 'Vanderpump Rules' star - who filed for divorce from Jax in August 2024 - gave a scathing answer when she was asked to rate her experiences with her ex.
She told 'Watch What Happens Live!' host Andy Cohen: "Oh, Lord. There [were] times when he was about a seven or an eight.
"Majority of the time, no stamina, no nothing. I'd say a two or a three."
Brittany also gave a blunt assessment of their relationship in the wake of their split.
She added: "[It's] still not great. His personality is still very much a Jax Taylor personality."
Jax - who was diagnosed with bipolar disorder in September 2024 - recently said he thinks his marriage could have been saved if he'd received his diagnosis sooner.
He said on the 'In the Mind of Jax Taylor' podcast: "This is the first time in my 45 years of life that I had to ask for help because I just couldn't do it anymore.
"I just, I couldn't bear the weight. And I just - I surrendered. I surrendered."
Jax has been using a mood stabiliser called Lamotrigine, and it's actually changed his life.
The former 'Vanderpump Rules' star shared: "I'm on it, and I absolutely love it."
Last month, Jax - who had recently celebrated 100 days of sobriety, having previously discussed his substance abuse issues - opened up about his rehab stay, having checked himself into a mental health facility in 2024.
He told Us Weekly: "I had all these other issues because I'm masking loneliness. I'm masking the texting women by doing drugs and drinking alcohol.
"I have all these other issues. So it's a slow process, which is hard for me because I always look for the quick fix.
"This is one of those things in life that it's not a quick fix. You have to work at it. I'm not used to that.'

Nia Sanchez and Daniel Booko welcome fourth child

Nia Sanchez and her husband Daniel Booko have become parents for the fourth time. The Valley stars have welcomed a daughter named Adelaide Nicole - who joins elder siblings Asher, three, and one-year-old twins Isabelle and Zariah - and the couple shared the first picture of their little girl in a post on social media in which they declared they are "absolutely in love" with the new arrival. In a message posted on Instagram. they wrote: "Sweet little memories from Adelaide's first moments of life. We are absolutely in love! Birth story coming soon." The pair told Us Weekly they gave their daughter the middle name Nicole to honour Nia's mother, who shares the same name, because she's been such a huge help raising their family. Nia also revealed Adelaide's birth was much more "intimate" than her previous experiences in the delivery room. She told the publication: "The first moments with baby no. four felt so sweet and intimate. "In our previous birth experiences, we've had a lot more people in the room. And we've always had a doula. This time, it was just us with our doctor and two nurses. This birth was extra special because Danny was able to deliver the baby." The family recently moved into a new home in Santa Clarita, California and they are were unpacking at the time Adelaide arrived. Nia said: "We moved in about two and a half weeks before baby no. four arrived. We still have boxes everywhere and are not quite settled. But it feels great to have so much more space and a beautiful backyard for our children to play in." Nia went on to reveal she now feels as if their family is complete and they probably won't be having any more children. She explained: "This pregnancy definitely felt like a full circle moment for us. We had always talked about either wanting two children or four. 'When we skipped the line to three kids [after having twins], we began discussing no. four shortly after. We both come from families of four, so having four little ones of our own feels very full circle ... "I am really looking forward to watching all of my children grow up and be so close. We love creating special memories with our children and are excited to now do that as a family of six."

Brittany Cartwright worried Jax Taylor might 'spy' on her

Brittany Cartwright feared Jax Taylor would "spy" on her following their separation. The 36-year-old reality star filed for a divorce from Jax in August 2024, and Brittany remained in their family home following their break-up. Brittany - who has Cruz, four, with Jax - said on 'The Valley': "Now that Jax is moving into the condo, which I'm still so p***** about, at least from all of this me and Cruz get to move back into our house where we belong. "I'm taking care of our mortgage, even though I already have two-and-a-half months paid up in this rental, so I'm paying double now." Jax had cameras installed in their family home before his split from Brittany. But the reality TV star went around her home covering the cameras with stickers, while Jax was spending time in rehab. Brittany insisted: "He's not gonna spy on me." Brittany also speculated that Jax, 45, could've bugged their house. She said: "Do you think that he put a bug in here? "Unless he put some secret devices around this house, our interior cameras don't have sound. But we are speaking about Jax Taylor here, I don't put anything past him anymore." Jax previously admitted that he's been battling a cocaine addiction for more than 20 years. He said on the 'Hot Mic' podcast: "I have substance issues - primarily with cocaine. It's hard to say out loud. I've been dealing with this on and off since I was 23 and now I'm 45. "There was times where I would stop doing it but then there were times where I'd go heavy on it. "I just want to let people know this is a really, really tough disease and it's a really tough sickness." Brittany subsequently claimed that she spent years trying to help Jax to "get better". She said on the 'When Reality Hits' podcast: "No one wants Jax to be better more than I do, let's be real. "I tried and tried and tried for years to help this man get better and for us to be a happy family, I was deeply and madly in love with him, there's no one that can ever deny that."

Leah Remini claims Church of Scientology wanted to murder her

Leah Remini claims the Church of Scientology wanted to murder her. The 'King of Queens' actress, 54, joined the group aged 13 when her mother became a member, and described the organisation's control over every aspect of her life in a candid new interview about the impact it has had on her and her family's lives. She spoke to UsWeekly about her ongoing trauma about extracting herself from the church after filing a civil harassment lawsuit against the Church of Scientology in 2023, alleging it orchestrated a campaign of stalking and intimidation against her and her 20-year-old daughter Sofia – with a trial scheduled for October. Leah's efforts to expose the Church's practices began with her 2015 memoir, 'Troublemaker: Surviving Hollywood and Scientology', and continued with the Emmy-winning docuseries 'Leah Remini: Scientology and the Aftermath'. She added: 'They harass my underage daughter online. They've (used) a Scientology term that means to kill me (and) basically to erase me from the face of the earth. –When you talk to a lawyer, they say, 'It's going to cost you more to defend yourself than to pay them off'. 'And Scientology knows that.' A representative for the Church told UsWeekly: 'All allegations of harassment, break-ins and other salacious alleged conduct are false.' Leah added about her time in the Church: 'We (had) to report to our ethics departments – the Scientology police — and that's an everyday activity. 'Once your parents become Scientologists, they're no longer your parents.' Her break from the Church came after she was ordered to cut ties with her mother and stepfather for allegedly violating Scientology policy. She said: 'That's when I found the Brooklyn girl in me.' Leah credits the late Mike Rinder – a former high-ranking Scientologist who left in 2007 – with helping her escape. She said: 'Mike was the first person I called when I was thinking of leaving. That alone was a high crime in Scientology. 'He was so comforting.' Leah said the Church continues to harass Sofia online, and that the pressure has taken a toll. The actress added: 'She's constantly petrified that her phone is being tapped. 'I had to get her help for that, and she's OK; we got through a rough patch.'
