Many fans were thrilled by the rumors suggesting a possible return of Jax Taylor and Brittany Cartwright to Vanderpump Rules. However, it seems that the couple is making a comeback to Bravo, but not as series regulars on VPR.
In 2023, Brittany Cartwright expressed that she and Jax Taylor were feeling the urge to return to Vanderpump Rules. The pair even provided commentary for the Peacock recap of the show’s season 10 after their departure.
Brittany shared with Us Weekly, “We’re definitely getting the itch ‘cause it was fun to have the cameras over and have crew over. Going through that whole lifestyle again was so fun.”
On January 17, 2024, Bravo finally confirmed the news that fans had been eagerly awaiting – Jax and Brittany will be back on reality TV, but on a Vanderpump Rules spin-off show called The Valley.
The show will revolve around a group of friends navigating life challenges in the San Fernando Valley. The Valley is set to premiere sometime in spring 2024, coinciding with the finale of Vanderpump Rules’ 11th season.
The new show will follow Jax and Brittany, along with fellow VPR alum Kristen Doute and her boyfriend Luke Broderick.
The Valley will also introduce newcomers Danny and Nia Booko, Jesse and Michelle Lally, Jason and Janet Caperna, and friends Jasmine Goode and Zach Wickham as they navigate businesses, families, and adulthood in Los Angeles’ San Fernando Valley.
Jax Taylor and Brittany Cartwright bid farewell to Vanderpump Rules in December 2020 after Brittany announced her pregnancy with their son Cruz, who is now 2 years old.
The couple cited their excitement to focus on their growing family as the reason for their departure from the series.
Brittany and Jax have been together since 2015, tying the knot in 2019. Despite their past relationship challenges, including Jax’s admission of infidelity with another cast member, the couple seemed to be working through their issues.
However, on February 29, 2024, Brittany revealed on their joint podcast that she and Jax had separated, hinting at an uncertain future.
As fans eagerly await The Valley’s premiere on March 19, 2024, the dynamics between Jax and Brittany will surely be a point of interest following their recent separation.
For those looking to catch up on Vanderpump Rules, the 11th season started airing on January 30, 2024, on Bravo, with new episodes every Tuesday at 8 pm ET.
Viewers can also stream past episodes on various platforms like Peacock, Hulu, Google Play, Amazon Prime Video, and FuboTV.
Bravo fans can look forward to The Valley as a fresh take on the Vanderpump Rules franchise, with familiar faces and new challenges in the spotlight.
The show promises to offer an engaging look into the lives of these reality TV personalities as they navigate relationships, careers, and the bustling city of Los Angeles.
