July 23 2019, Updated 8:46 p.m. ET
Jax Taylor and Brittany Cartwright have been married for less than a month, and already there’s trouble in paradise, RadarOnline.com exclusively learned. But that should come as little surprise, considering the volatile history of their relationship.
As RadarOnline.com readers know, Jax, 39 and Brittany, 30, got engaged even after Jax cheated on her with Ex On The Beach star Faith Stowers. The two also have been caught on camera openly arguing and fighting with each other. But just a little over a year ago, on June 8, 2018, the couple announced their shocking engagement.
“She said yes!!! I can’t wait for y’all to see how this happened next season!!!” Jax wrote on Instagram at the time, plugging their reality show and showing off two photos of Cartwright wearing her massive diamond ring. “I am marrying the woman of my dreams and I could not be happier!! make sure y’all tune in season 7 to see how this unfolded.”
Cartwright shared the same pics on her Instagram account, along with similar feelings.
“Omg omg!!!!!!!! We are ENGAGED! What a way to start our summer and season 7!! I am so happy, so in love, and so beyond excited for this next chapter of our lives! I can’t wait for all of you to see how he proposed! I am the happiest girl ever right now,” Brittany wrote at the time.
But with all their bickering, the dream wedding has apparently already started to turn into a nightmare. Check out Jax and Brittany’s roller-coaster relationship in this RadarOnline.com gallery.
The Start
Brittany and Jax began dating in 2015, after they met in Las Vegas between seasons four and five of Vanderpump Rules.
Fights
The relationship was almost instantly full of fights, and the two broke up for the first time in August 2017.
Under Pressure
Their issues began when they filmed their spinoff, Vanderpump Rules: Jax and Brittany Take Kentucky the previous year. Brittany’s parents pressured Jax to pop the question, but the notorious bad boy wasn’t ready to propose.
‘Fed Up’
“Brittany was fed up,” an insider revealed to RadarOnline.com at the time. “Jax wasn’t boyfriend material. He didn’t treat her right.”
Take Me Back!
Two months later, Jax begged Brittany to take him back.
Short-lived Reunion
But their new happiness wouldn’t last long.
Cheater
In December 2017, it was revealed that Jax cheated on Brittany with Faith.
“What does it matter if I did it two or three times?” he argued with Brittany after his confession was caught on camera. “What’s the difference between one time and ten times? It doesn’t make a difference.”
Done!
“It changes everything, you piece of s**t. You are f**king done!” a ballistic Brittany clapped back. "You’re f**king disgusting, I f**king hate you.”
The two broke up, only to get back together just a few days later.
Never Marry
In January 2018, Jax swore to friends that he’d never marry Brittany—which caused another explosive fight between the two.
Fixed And Broken
Eventually, they hashed out their issues and fixed their relationship, but just as things were looking good for the reality duo, Jax called it quits again in April 2018 – right after some morning sex!
Wedding
Just a month after that last fight, Jax proposed in June 2018.
Magic Time
The magical, fairytale themed wedding ceremony, officiated by Lance Bass, took place on Saturday, June 29 at the Kentucky Castle in Versailles, Kentucky which is Brittany’s home state.
Uh Oh
But the honeymoon didn’t last long. A source exclusively told RadarOnline.com, just a month after exchanging I do’s, Jax and Brittany are “unhappy” in their marriage https://radaronline.com/exclusives/2019/07/vanderpump-rules-jax-taylor-brittany-cartwright-marriage-crumbling/ and “cannot get along!”
‘Wandering Eye’
“Brittany is already accusing Jax of having a wandering eye and she doesn’t know how she's ever really going to trust him,” the insider revealed. “She thought that getting married would make all of her suspicions go away, but it hasn’t. All it has really done was give her a ring and more reason to worry that something may happen.”
Jax’s Doubts
Jax is said to be “freaking out” over money issues as well, especially with the revelation the couple did not get a prenup.
His And Hers
“Now that they are married, all of his money is hers and all of her money is his, the informant said. "And it has been causing some major issues because she loves to spend.”
