The Valley star Jax Taylor is reportedly seeking in-patient treatment for mental health issues months after he announced separating from his wife Brittany Cartwright.
A rep for Jax told US Weekly that he is seeking treatment for “mental health struggles.”
“Jax has always been candid about his mental health struggles, especially during the past few months on his podcast,” the statement read. “He has made the decision to seek in-patient treatment. This is a particularly sensitive time for him and his family. They ask for privacy and respect until he is ready to speak more on this matter.”
On their Bravo show, The Valley Brittany complained that Jax was hardly intimate with her and that he complained about the way she looked.
Jax previously shared that the separation has been good for him, but he misses his estranged wife.
“I am not — I repeat not — dating anybody,” he said at the time. “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.”
