Jax Taylor Denies Rumor Of A Romance With A Model

Jax Taylor was recently spotted out to lunch with model Paige Woolen, and considering that he and Brittany Cartwright have recently separated and that the pair looked very relaxed with each other during their outing together, fans jumped to the conclusion that The Valley star was already dating someone new.

Following the rumors, Jax Taylor was quick to clarify, and he seemed sad that people would assume he would move on from his marriage that quickly. He clarified on X that he wasn't dating Paige Woolen and told fans "it's not what you think."

He spoke about it again on May 31 on the When Reality Hits podcast.

"I am not — I repeat not — dating anybody," he stated. "I was seen out with someone and it was strictly lunch. Obviously, Brittany and I are separated and have been for a long time. What we are going through right now is tough. Marriage is not easy."

However, despite the fact that he's currently not seeing anybody, Jax and Brittany have been talking about potentially dating other people.

"We are trying to figure out a lot of different things: therapy, separation and maybe, possibly, dating other people," he revealed. Even so, nothing is set in stone, as they haven't even decided if they're getting divorced. "We are trying to exhaust everything before we have to go down the divorce road — if that would be the case."

"Being married is not easy... Going through what we went through, with Covid, and then obviously losing our job on Vanderpump [Rules], and then going through all that and then having a baby, there was a lot of stuff that was just piling down on me and it was crushing me —it would crush anybody," he explained.

Despite this, he explained that they were constantly in touch. "She lives down the street, we see each other every single day, we take our son to school every day together, we go to swim class, we go to soccer. We do everything. We're just not sleeping in the same bed."
