Brittany Cartwright and Jax Taylor may no longer be married, but their relationship continues to make headlines.
Since announcing their split and filing for divorce, the former The Valley stars have publicly clashed over co-parenting, communication, and their rocky past. While both have said their son, Cruz, remains their top priority, it’s clear their relationship is still far from smooth.
Here’s where Brittany and Jax stand today.
Brittany Says Co-Parenting Is Still a Struggle
Although Brittany and Jax are focused on raising their son together, Brittany has admitted that co-parenting hasn’t been easy.

In a recent interview, she described the experience as “an uphill battle,” explaining that while there are good days, there are also difficult ones. She emphasized that Cruz is their main priority and that they work to shield him from any tension between them. (Bravo)

Brittany also praised Jax for maintaining his sobriety but suggested that some aspects of his personality haven’t changed, joking, “Jax is Jaxin’.” (Bravo)
Jax Believes They’re in a Better Place
Jax has painted a more optimistic picture of their current relationship.

However, Brittany’s more recent comments suggest that while there has been progress, the relationship remains complicated.
Their Divorce Has Been Filled With Ups and Downs
The couple’s split has played out publicly since Brittany filed for divorce after nearly five years of marriage.

Since then, both have spoken openly about the emotional toll of their separation, disagreements over parenting, and the challenges of moving forward while remaining connected through their son. Brittany has also clarified that infidelity was not the reason their marriage ended, instead pointing to ongoing relationship issues and a major argument that led to their separation. (E! Online)
Will They Ever Be Friends Again?
For now, Brittany and Jax appear committed to being the best parents they can be for Cruz, even if they don’t always see eye to eye.
While the tension between them has eased compared to the early days of their split, Brittany has made it clear that co-parenting remains a work in progress. Meanwhile, Jax continues to express hope that they can improve their relationship over time.
The Bottom Line
So, are Brittany Cartwright and Jax Taylor still fighting?
The answer is yes—but not in the same way fans saw at the height of their breakup. Their focus has shifted from their marriage to co-parenting Cruz, though disagreements and lingering tension remain.
As The Valley continues, viewers can expect their evolving relationship to remain one of the show’s biggest storylines.
