Brittany Cartwright addressed why she isn’t as close with Stassi Schroeder and Katie Maloney, and she hinted that Michelle and Jesse Lally have been “separated for a while” – though they just disclosed it before The Valley’s premiere.
Brittany, Stassi, and Katie were once good friends on Vanderpump Rules, though Brittany has since fallen out with them. Of the three, only Katie has remained on the original show.
“Neither [Stassi or Katie] has reached out to me,” said Brittany on the Not Skinny But Not Fat podcast, via @Byewighellodrama, when asked if her relationship with the co-stars has changed since her split with husband Jax Taylor.
“I know that we didn’t go to Stassi’s wedding and that was like a big deal,” she said after being asked why they’re no longer close. “But Katie absolutely no reason why she wouldn’t be talking to me. Like, we’ve never had an argument, never had a fight.”
Brittany believes part of it is that Katie “doesn’t like Jax,” and Jax is a “big wedge” between her, Stassi, and Katie.
Despite everything, Brittany said she hopes they can all be friends again, and she misses Stassi “a lot.”
She was eventually asked if she regrets not attending Stassi’s wedding.
“That was a huge part between me and Jax that like nobody knows about,” she said. “It was bad.”
Though Brittany regrets not going, she hinted that Jax was being “Jax.” She explained, however, that there were other obstacles at the time. Her mom, for example, couldn’t accompany them to Italy to watch her son because her mom’s best friend’s husband had just passed away.
What’s more, Jax was also writing in “group chats” – which Stassi and Beau found out about, though Brittany had “no idea.” Jax’s alleged actions made it seem that Brittany knew they wouldn’t attend the wedding.
On the Housewives Nightcap podcast, Brittany also addressed how castmates Jesse and Michelle went public with their separation just before the premiere.
“They’ve actually been separated for a while. They’ve been separated longer than Jax and I have,” said Brittany, who’s been living apart from Jax for several months.
Brittany explained that she and Michelle have gotten close because they’re in “such a similar situation,” and Michelle knows how Brittany “is feeling.”
“Whoa whoa whoa. Let’s be very clear,” Jax interrupted, via @Breakingtherulespod on Instagram. “It could be very similar but it’s very different at the same time.”
Jax added that he doesn’t want the situations to be compared.
Kristen Doute then teased that fans will see “Jesse and Michelle’s relationship play out pretty much to the bitter … The viewers will get to see all of that.”
Brittany clarified that Michelle and Jesse are “done done” – while Brittany and Jax don’t “know what our future holds.”
