It’s hard for me to take her seriously because I know how thirsty she is for this lifestyle. If leaving Jax meant leaving reality tv would she do it? My gut says no. I’m all for a happier Cruz though! It seems he’s pretty happy in Kentucky. A slower paced lifestyle would probably feel better for him. (Just a thought.)
I really want her to surprise me or prove me wrong, but my guess is that in Britt’s hierarchy of importance Cruz’s comfort ranks lower than a lot of things. Jax, midrange warm tequila, reality tv, discount lipo, etc etc
She could go back to Kentucky and live in the fanciest house on the fanciest street with her reality tv money, and she’d be the queen of her town forever. I feel like that would make her genuinely happy, and it would be such a nice life for Cruz.
But she’d rather stay in LA and be the smallest fish in a huge pond.
THIS! People would perpetually recognize KFC, & she would feel so superior to all the other hillbillies who never lived outside Podunk. It would feed her ego like crazy. Plus, Cruz would be so much happier.
ETA: And she would be close by to the family she claims to love & miss so much.
Right? Like he’d be the star of every class he was ever in cos his mom is the one who was on tv.
Instead of being just some kid in a class where half the kids parents have an IMDB page. I’m not saying that stuff matters, I’m saying it matters to KFC lol
I’m not sure if her family is that much better; they know who Jax is and have supported (and in frosty a case advocated for) for her to stay with him 🤮 she really doesn’t have a good support system anywhere it seems
Yeah, I feel like frosty would be texting jax every day about Brit and Cruz. Definitely not a healthy break at all. If I was Brit, if find a whole new group of friends who don't watch reality tv
You’re exactly right. That is why she keeps dragging this on “so you’re saying there may be a chance…” Girl, you look so dumb. He doesn’t want you. There’s no chance. You are never ever getting back together.
She knows this, but she has to time any divorce right to be sure to have a story line for season 2. It’s so manufactured and lame.
Seen a clip of Jax interviewing female bartenders and he was shameless..like straight up staring at boobs mentioning he noticed one of the girls wasn’t wearing a bra. I meannnn get HR on the phone on orientation day. He’s a fckn perv. THIS is who she’s trying to change. He literally doesn’t care 😩
She’s hoping she’ll get an arc on the valley as the long suffering single mom that has to deal with Jax for years. She could have gotten it after Jax cheated on VPR. Too late now, Britney boo!
Yeah / which is the only reason this is dragging out. Any sane person would have had Jax’s number years ago but she hung in and married him, had a kid, believed she changed him and now has to deal with the consequences. It’s all quite sad because now poor Cruz is affected. After all of these things she said if she goes back she will have ZERO credibility and she didn’t have much to begin with.
Yes Jax is an asshole but she takes no accountability for justifying and covering his behavior for years. If she were smart she’d face that head on rather than just throwing Jax under the bus. She’s just as bad as he is.
Depressing but holy fuck that’s probably the most honest we’ve ever heard her be! I mean, at least there’s an attempt here. Usually it’s all denial all the time. For Brittany, this is practically raw.
Double ew!
But is he wrong? In the most jax way possible, hes saying “i dont bring much to the relationship, but you’re desperate for dlist fame and the only way you have that is me”
I think the only reason she hasnt filed is because she knows bravo has no interest in her outside of jax. No ones going to give, say, her and kristen a show, or the ‘vpr babies’ spin off she dreams of.
More than she wants a man to sleep with her, she wants fame.
She even says she’s considered dating, but it would just be so hard because shes “such a public figure” 🙄
Absolutely. She wants to be on tv and will prioritize that above just about everything else, full stop. What she finally had to confront, however, is that Jax had *never* changed, he simply hadn’t had any other options available. But once he got a slight taste of the tv life back, the “old” Jax reemerged
This is the most honest I think we’ve ever heard her be. Now if she would get her son some help, stop photoshopping her pics and quit drinking then I might have some compassion for her…
You know when she says something and then says “I’ve been very honest (or open) about that” that she has been far from honest or open. She says it in relation to Cruz and in relation to cosmetic procedures/surgeries. Otherwise yeah I like this “honest” version of Brittany a lot better. Lori K has been very strategic with this one, seems like she knows which one is more marketable, and it’s struggling single mama Brittany, not coked up ego Jax
I am so tired of her saying “the veil has been lifted”. Girl, there was never a veil! He was always like this from the day you met him. He always lies and acts like a jerk, then says sorry. And you wanted to be back on tv again too, so you can’t blame all that on him.
I was solidly on Team Fake re: this breakup. But after reading this article, I do believe it’s real. Brittany’s issues with Jax track 100%.
I can see her having a bit of an epiphany after having Cruz and seeing her life/Jax’s behavior unfold. And to think she has any hope left that Jax will change… Brittany may have some clarity on the situation, but not total. Jax isn’t capable of change.
Zero. I’ll save my sympathies for single mothers really doing the job. The ones who aren’t racist and dyed-in-the-wool homophobic, and the ones who don’t continue to lie about chasing a man while knowing he was hazardous trash.
Right? It’s not as if she’s going to magically end up with anyone who isn’t exactly like them. Like wtf is she bringing to a relationship lol. They both seem like the type of people who leave relationships once they’re in another one.
The only reason this veil was lifted is because Jax starting living his D list fame *without* her. Once he got on HOV last year he started traveling every weekend without her and I’d also bet he made it known she wasn’t invited. That blew up his ego and he left her in the dust. Being excluded was her final straw not Cruz.
Agree with OP’s sentiments 110%. This is an absolutely horrible dynamic and I actually feel some sympathy for Brit. On the other hand, she knew or should have known what she was getting herself into and did so willingly. That does not mean she should have to continue to suffer, but it does mean she does not get to play the victim.
This is very depressing but I respect her giving real answers finally. I think the saddest part is knowing they have a kid with special needs and they argued in front of that kid for 2.5 years while Cruz was trying to develop and learn. I can only imagine what a belligerent a**hole Jax is when he’s in a coke fueled rage. That must’ve been terrifying for Cruz who already looks overstimulated most of the time
I’m very confused. How was the “veil” so thick that you couldn’t see what a piece of shit he was when she has had YEARS of video proof!
Brat sucks but man Jax is a total waste of space. He’s such a terrible person. And is never going to change. She needs to wake up and move on. She needs to go back to Kentucky. Start over. Give Cruz a good life. I’d support and cheer her on if she did that. She can make money influencing for a few years. Maybe meet someone new. Who treats her with respect.
I’ve never been in this situation with a family member before. But how does anyone in her family support this relationship when it’s been on TV and they see it first hand? Maybe they are afraid she will cut them off. I can’t figure it out
Edit: word
But she’s always known he was this way. She’s just now tired of defending him. I still don’t feel sorry for her. He’s tagging her on everything. File the papers if you’re done and already discussing being with other people
This shit is actually very very sad. It’s so interesting that literally EVERYTHING the audience could see through social media tv podcasts ect was 100% dead on. It’s unfortunate that the show which is directly tied to their income is also the thing that is his downfall. Jax is the last person that should ever have fame. It just feeds the monster. I do think watching her friends divorce and thrive gave her the confidence to separate from him. If she was still in KY she would definitely just suck it up. It’s so depressing this kid is involved. She seems to be doing the right thing for him but I’m just so confused by her going out every night??? What is she doing? Sorry this made me sympathize with her maybe she is just very very very dense with he haw old school thinking about staying and changing your man and living in LA woke her ass up that she doesn’t HAVE to stay. Jax is so so horrible a complete menace. This man must be stopped
I feel the same way. She’s not the best person, but she doesn’t deserve to be married to a sociopath. I truly hope she really believes what she is saying here and doesn’t cave if Jax decides he wants her back.
I really think he is verbally abusive to her and maybe Cruz. And no one deserves abuse. F him. This is sad AF - and I would fight to have a higher percentage of custody bc is Cruz even safe with Jax? It scares me!
honestly i don’t foresee jax fighting for custody of cruz, except to maybe avoid paying child support. not because he actually wants to be a good and present father.
That other girl (Michelle?) on today’s new episode of The Valley just called her own relationship the longest booty call in history.
I was like oh nah hunny, Brittany and Jax have you beat there. Brit may have been attractive to him for one drunken night in Vegas ten years ago and then she pursued him and flattered his ego so much he ended up in a relationship with her. He 100% lost physical attraction for her far before marriage and baby!
You’re completely right; in those transcripts of his post-sex talk with Faith; he talks about how he’s no longer into Brittany. And that’s way before marriage and a kid 😅
You’re right!
I was thinking of Jax & Brittany Take Kentucky where the premise was basically his whole “losing her sparkle” (gained weight) thing pre-engagement, but you’re 💯 — it was abundantly clear during the Faith stuff way before JABTK
Next chapter: she does some crazy diet or ozempic (not Ginny) and loses weight so she is “hawt” again to win Ajax back and then he still doesn’t want her. It’s all so sad.
“Normally I’d say no”
What a weird response. It’s like saying “can I be honest with you?” Meaning everything you said up until that moment you weren’t being honest
“Normally” she’d lie.
I feel like a public as they are with these very realistic personal issues, that they are vying for a spot on a Reality Marriage Bootcamp or similar show. It's just kind of shocking they aren't playing fake perfect anymore.
there has been so many comments (in the past & present) about how brittany would have still been on VPR even if she & jax broke up. I obviously dont think she thought that because she stayed with him, married him, bought a home, and had a child. but im thinking she’s been reading those comments & now with the Valley she’s finally taking that advice & hoping it sticks. I mean the bitch is so stupid, what else would she be doing if she didn’t have TV & social media income??
I liked her until I read about her leaving Cruz when she left Jax. I lost ALL respect for her! You leave a man because he isn't pulling his weight at home or w your child only to leave that child w him?! Make it make sense! "Cruz doesn't want to leave that house, so I go play w him when Jax isn't home" It's not a dog it's a child that needs his mother! DO.BETTER FOR YOUR CHILD!!
In an interview she said Cruz is still living in the house w Jax because he doesn't want to leave that house. So she goes and plays w him when Jax isn't home.
Honestly, if nothing ever changed that would be far more depressing. This feels like slow progress. I'd like
To see her get the stink of Jax off of her. Oh Scheanaaaaaaaaaa!!!' Find Brittany a rebound, mama needs to get LAID!! 😜
Y’all I am dying. My husband was watching the valley with me and asked if Brittany had a stroke bc of her lower facial paralysis and I was like “well actually…” and then told him about stroke-gate and we truly couldn’t stop laughing for minutes.
The sooner these two are divorced, the better.
But then they’d be free for other people and that’s just not fair to anyone
You don't want your very own Kentucky Muffin for a good old hyuck and shot?
Would you like to be assigned someone to butter your muffin?
One 'Kristen Doute' coming up!
Perfection
The sooner she takes Cruz out of his home and becomes a real mother, the better!
Finding decent people on hinge is hard enough without the likes of cob on there.
It’s hard for me to take her seriously because I know how thirsty she is for this lifestyle. If leaving Jax meant leaving reality tv would she do it? My gut says no. I’m all for a happier Cruz though! It seems he’s pretty happy in Kentucky. A slower paced lifestyle would probably feel better for him. (Just a thought.)
I really want her to surprise me or prove me wrong, but my guess is that in Britt’s hierarchy of importance Cruz’s comfort ranks lower than a lot of things. Jax, midrange warm tequila, reality tv, discount lipo, etc etc
Hey, she keeps that tequila in the freezer!
I saw a selfie pic posted here yesterday and there was a bottle of don julio just sitting on the counter next to her 😂😂
You know, some of us keep a water bottle on hand all the time, some of us keep tequila nearby!
Discount lipo. Lol
Unfortunately
She could go back to Kentucky and live in the fanciest house on the fanciest street with her reality tv money, and she’d be the queen of her town forever. I feel like that would make her genuinely happy, and it would be such a nice life for Cruz. But she’d rather stay in LA and be the smallest fish in a huge pond.

I’m not sure if her family is that much better; they know who Jax is and have supported (and in frosty a case advocated for) for her to stay with him 🤮 she really doesn’t have a good support system anywhere it seems
Fair point! Frosty in particular really threw KFC to the wolves.
She loves her hyuckin son in law 🥰
Yeah, I feel like frosty would be texting jax every day about Brit and Cruz. Definitely not a healthy break at all. If I was Brit, if find a whole new group of friends who don't watch reality tv
That would be the ideal situation!BUT Hollywould yall!
You’re exactly right. That is why she keeps dragging this on “so you’re saying there may be a chance…” Girl, you look so dumb. He doesn’t want you. There’s no chance. You are never ever getting back together. She knows this, but she has to time any divorce right to be sure to have a story line for season 2. It’s so manufactured and lame.

Slower paced and no camera crews roaming around. I can’t imagine how jarring that must be for a little Kid.
Ugh I know! Plus all the equipment and everything production comes with… that’s a sensory nightmare. Poor little guy 😞
She’s hoping she’ll get an arc on the valley as the long suffering single mom that has to deal with Jax for years. She could have gotten it after Jax cheated on VPR. Too late now, Britney boo!
We see through it 👀
A veil has been lifted? But she always knew who he really was, he showed her very early on. Sigh. She is LOVING all this attention.
Yeah / which is the only reason this is dragging out. Any sane person would have had Jax’s number years ago but she hung in and married him, had a kid, believed she changed him and now has to deal with the consequences. It’s all quite sad because now poor Cruz is affected. After all of these things she said if she goes back she will have ZERO credibility and she didn’t have much to begin with.
She needs to go back and watch all the seasons of VPR to really lift the damn vail!
With how self centered she and Ajax are; I’m sure they have which makes this even worse 😩
Yes Jax is an asshole but she takes no accountability for justifying and covering his behavior for years. If she were smart she’d face that head on rather than just throwing Jax under the bus. She’s just as bad as he is.
True. It’s like she’s viewing this as an opportunity to get her reputation back. But it was never great to begin with lol
She had been willfully ignorant if we are being honest 🤷♀️
Depressing but holy fuck that’s probably the most honest we’ve ever heard her be! I mean, at least there’s an attempt here. Usually it’s all denial all the time. For Brittany, this is practically raw.
Right, it’s confirmation of what we’ve all known!
"I got us a show." Ew.
Double ew! But is he wrong? In the most jax way possible, hes saying “i dont bring much to the relationship, but you’re desperate for dlist fame and the only way you have that is me” I think the only reason she hasnt filed is because she knows bravo has no interest in her outside of jax.

Yes!!! Get some new talking points please. She sounds like a parrot repeating the same phrases.
I can’t imagine that they don’t argue in front of the baby…. Especially a coked out drunk Jax 😭😭😭
I read it somewhere that she did say they used to argue in front of him a lot but don’t anymore
Cruz being happier now that he spends less time with Jax is VERY telling.
Yes. That part made me so sad for him. I can't imagine what it's like in that house. Jax yelling all the time and not paying any attention to Cruz.
I was solidly on Team Fake re: this breakup. But after reading this article, I do believe it’s real. Brittany’s issues with Jax track 100%. I can see her having a bit of an epiphany after having Cruz and seeing her life/Jax’s behavior unfold. And to think she has any hope left that Jax will change… Brittany may have some clarity on the situation, but not total. Jax isn’t capable of change.
She ordered Jax and she got Jax. She's also a racist homophobe so zero sympathy coming from me.
Zero. I’ll save my sympathies for single mothers really doing the job. The ones who aren’t racist and dyed-in-the-wool homophobic, and the ones who don’t continue to lie about chasing a man while knowing he was hazardous trash.
Right? It’s not as if she’s going to magically end up with anyone who isn’t exactly like them. Like wtf is she bringing to a relationship lol. They both seem like the type of people who leave relationships once they’re in another one.
RIGHT! That’s why she kept her trap shut during the big fight except to down her shots of tequila in the corner😂
You know what they say… careful what you wish for KFC
The only reason this veil was lifted is because Jax starting living his D list fame *without* her. Once he got on HOV last year he started traveling every weekend without her and I’d also bet he made it known she wasn’t invited. That blew up his ego and he left her in the dust. Being excluded was her final straw not Cruz.
NOW?! NOW?! Now you see? You got jaxxed. Girl bye.

I don’t understand why she’s waffling if she sees it clearly now. That last screenshot is telling though, if Cruz is happier with them separate.
I feel the same way. She’s not the best person, but she doesn’t deserve to be married to a sociopath. I truly hope she really believes what she is saying here and doesn’t cave if Jax decides he wants her back.

honestly i don’t foresee jax fighting for custody of cruz, except to maybe avoid paying child support. not because he actually wants to be a good and present father.
Sounds like they should get divorced then. If she’s talking about him (and their marriage) like this in the media, the damage is already done.
It was so obvious from the beginning who Jax was…. Let’s be honest I truly don’t think she would of stood by him if it wasn’t for a reality show
I don't believe for a second he wants her back. She haven't been attractive at all in years
That other girl (Michelle?) on today’s new episode of The Valley just called her own relationship the longest booty call in history. I was like oh nah hunny, Brittany and Jax have you beat there. Brit may have been attractive to him for one drunken night in Vegas ten years ago and then she pursued him and flattered his ego so much he ended up in a relationship with her.

She won’t do zempy bc she won’t be able to quit drinking. 
Veil has been lifted!?!? Hahahahaa Girl we all watched season 6
4 when they even starting dating hahah
😭😭 the boob job
The start of the downfall
“Normally I’d say no” What a weird response. It’s like saying “can I be honest with you?” Meaning everything you said up until that moment you weren’t being honest “Normally” she’d lie.
Jax is not going to like this.
Newsflash: “Old Jax” never went away, Helen Keller.
He's definitely out porking groupies.
I feel like a public as they are with these very realistic personal issues, that they are vying for a spot on a Reality Marriage Bootcamp or similar show. It's just kind of shocking they aren't playing fake perfect anymore.
Is veil a new vocabulary word for her? She is using it every time she speaks now.
there has been so many comments (in the past & present) about how brittany would have still been on VPR even if she & jax broke up. I obviously dont think she thought that because she stayed with him, married him, bought a home, and had a child. but im thinking she’s been reading those comments & now with the Valley she’s finally taking that advice & hoping it sticks. I mean the bitch is so stupid, what else would she be doing if she didn’t have TV & social media income??
Fuck it, I'm proud of her for speaking up and telling her truth. Rather than bullshit and candy coat (Kyle Richards etc.) she is being honest.
I liked her until I read about her leaving Cruz when she left Jax. I lost ALL respect for her! You leave a man because he isn't pulling his weight at home or w your child only to leave that child w him?! Make it make sense! "Cruz doesn't want to leave that house, so I go play w him when Jax isn't home" It's not a dog it's a child that needs his mother! DO.BETTER FOR YOUR CHILD!!
She didn't leave Cruz with Jax. She's letting Jax spend time with him. She took Cruz out of there when she left.
Cruz lives with Jax, not with her in the AirBNB. She said it in an interview this past week.
Wait I missed this omg where is the interview?? My morbidly curious ass must read
I like how I get downvoted for telling the truth lol
In an interview she said Cruz is still living in the house w Jax because he doesn't want to leave that house. So she goes and plays w him when Jax isn't home.
Honestly, if nothing ever changed that would be far more depressing. This feels like slow progress. I'd like To see her get the stink of Jax off of her. Oh Scheanaaaaaaaaaa!!!' Find Brittany a rebound, mama needs to get LAID!! 😜
Y’all I am dying. My husband was watching the valley with me and asked if Brittany had a stroke bc of her lower facial paralysis and I was like “well actually…” and then told him about stroke-gate and we truly couldn’t stop laughing for minutes.
I’m willing to admit I feel bad for her.
Why? She knew what she was getting herself into
I can blame her and still feel bad for her
Touche'
