Jax, who shares Cruz, 4, with Brittany, 35, documented his stint in rehab for mental health on season 2 of the Bravo series. He subsequently checked into treatment again for a cocaine addiction.

Jax Taylor, who has been a mainstay on Bravo reality television for over a decade, will not return for Season 3 of “The Valley” to focus on his sobriety and mental health.

This season of The Valley — Bravo’s Vanderpump Rules spinoff that follows a group of chaotic frenemies “adulting” in L.A. — has been an (un)controlled scientific study to discover just that. This is largely thanks to one person: Jax Taylor.

The former couple’s issues have been front and center of “The Valley”‘s Season 2 storyline, with the exes constantly fighting over custody issues and Taylor’s substance abuse problems. In March, Cartwright, 36, revealed the explosive fight that finally led the pair to calling it quits for good.
