The Valley is going to look very different in Season 3 after Jax Taylor's unexpected announcement that he would be leaving to focus on his health and sobriety. It is no secret that the show needed to make some changes ahead of the new season because of the breakdown in the relationships between its cast: Taylor and his ex-wife, Brittany Cartwright, are going through a bitter divorce, and Jesse Lally and Michelle Lally are not on good terms either. But was this the change the cast and fans wanted?

And, perhaps even more importantly, did the cast have any idea that Taylor was going to make his exit before the news became public? A source has previously told People how the cast were "blindsided" by Taylor's news, and this includes Cartwright.

The biggest revelation on Tuesday night’s “Valley” reunion was that Jax Taylor’s domestic abuse went much deeper than was discussed on the show this season.

When host Andy Cohen asked Taylor’s estranged wife, Brittany Cartwright, about the huge fight between them that led to Taylor seeking professional help, Cartwright started listing off all of the abuse she faced from her spouse.

She began with information that audiences knew from this season: “He was extremely aggressive. He threw the coffee table. It landed on my knee. It turned black immediately. He threw both barstools.”

Then came the new information.

“He threw my Stanley cup and broke it,” she continued. “He threw my phone and broke it. He threw my laptop and broke it. He threw me into the rose bushes…”

Although Taylor denied it, Cartwright doubled down, saying, “Yes, you did. It’s on my Ring camera doorbell.

Jax Taylor is ending another partnership.

The 46-year-old Bravo reality star and wife Brittany Cartwright split up earlier this year, then a couple weeks ago he announced his exit from The Valley ahead of season three.

His statement came after TMZ broke the news, with...

One disgraced Bravo star has shared a rare message about one of their long-fought endeavors, making it clear that even the successful parts of their life have been hurt by their behavior.

Alex Baskin knows there are a lot of questions about the future of The Valley, especially considering one of its founding cast members, Jax Taylor, just announced his departure from the Bravo series last Wednesday.

“We’re making our plans for next season,” the executive producer tells The Hollywood Reporter. “Jax is obviously a mainstay. We did spend half the season without him, and that period of time was really full and rich, so I don’t think that we’re [searching] for story to tell. I think it’s going to be different, but I don’t think different is a bad thing.”

After two seasons, the fate of Jax Taylor on The Valley has officially been revealed. According to a statement given to Us Weekly, the reality star will be stepping away from the series in order to focus on his recovery and mental health.

“After an incredibly challenging year and many honest conversations with my team and producers, I’ll be stepping away from the next season of The Valley. Right now, my focus needs to be on my sobriety, my mental health, and coparenting. Taking this time is necessary for me to become the best version of myself — especially for our son, Cruz.”

Before the start of the Vanderpump Rules spin-off's second season, Taylor opened up about his on-and-off cocaine addiction for more than two decades. Much of The Valley's second season documented Taylor's actions. His estranged wife, Brittany Cartwright, revealed the brutal details of a volatile incident inside...

“After an incredibly challenging year and many honest conversations with my team and producers, I’ll be stepping away from the next season of The Valley,” said Taylor in the statement. “Right now, my focus needs to be on my sobriety, my mental health and coparenting relationship. Taking this time is necessary for me to become the best version of myself — especially for our son, Cruz.”

Taylor will still appear on the season two reunion, which will air in two parts following the finale and was filmed in May. Bravo declined to comment, however a source close to production tells The Hollywood Reporter that the network and producers...

Jax Taylor from The Valley has decided to quit the Bravo show and won’t be returning for season 3. Jax became a breakout star on Vanderpump Rules, known for his bad-boy image, cheating scandals, and fiery confrontations. He was part of the original cast and remained a central figure for eight seasons. His dramatic exits, fights, and relationship with Brittany Cartwright made him one of Bravo’s most talked-about personalities.

After leaving Vanderpump Rules, Jax returned to reality TV with The Valley on Bravo, which follows a new phase of his life as a father and husband. The show features other former Vpr stars and focuses on suburban drama. Jax has been making headlinesfor on-screen and off-screen conflicts, with Bravo hearing outrage from fans asking for his removal.

Amid viewers wanting Jax to leave the show and demanding he be fired, Jax has announced a major career decision.

Variety has...

Jax Taylor has confirmed he will be leaving The Valley after Season 2.

The Vanderpump Rules alum says that he will focus on his sobriety following his exit from the Bravo series.

“After an incredibly challenging year and many honest conversations with my team and producers, I’ll be stepping away from the next season of The Valley,” Taylor said in a statement shared by Bravo’s The Daily Dish. “Right now, my focus needs to be on my sobriety, my mental health, and coparenting. Taking this time is necessary for me to become the best version of myself – especially for our son, Cruz.”

Taylor’s struggles with sobriety were a main storyline for him in The Valley Season 2. The reality TV personality opened up about using substances and checked himself into rehab at the beginning of Season 2. Although Taylor was away in a rehab center, he communicated with several of his co-stars via text messages.

Jax Taylor is moving out of the Valley. After a tumultuous, to say the least, Season Two of the hit Bravo series The Valley, Taylor announced Wednesday that he will not return for Season Three to focus on his sobriety and mental health.

“After an incredibly challenging year and many honest conversations with my team and producers, I’ll be stepping away from the next season of The Valley,” Taylor said in a statement. “Right now, my focus needs to be on my sobriety, my mental health, and coparenting relationship.

The statement, obtained by Variety, reads thusly: “After an incredibly challenging year and many honest conversations with my team and producers, I’ll be stepping away from the next season of ‘The Valley.’ Right now, my focus needs to be on my sobriety, my mental health, and coparenting relationship. Taking this time is necessary for me to become the best version of myself — especially for our son, Cruz.” Us Weekly first reported the news of Taylor’s departure.

In March, ahead of the show’s Season 2 premiere on April 15, Taylor revealed that he had been addicted to cocaine on and off for more than two decades.

Bravo's The Valley has wrapped Season 2, and although the series has been popular, some fans also feel it has been depressing. Stassi Schroeder, who previously starred on Vanderpump Rules with some of the stars of The Valley recently shared her thoughts about why she can no longer watch the show.

"I had to stop watching it. The last season, I was like 'This is great f***ing television,'" Schroeder said on a recent episode of the Disrespectfully podcast with Katie Maloney and Dayna Kathan, per Us Weekly. "Then I started the first two or three episodes of this season, and I'm like, 'This is so f***ing dark.' Indeed, some of the subject matter on the show does not make for lighthearted viewing and Schroeder has some suggestions for how production can fix this.

A star of Bravo's The Valley has left the country due to vicious online threats from trolls that have bombarded her since her appearance in The Valley season 2. Janet Caperna has faced criticism after being made into a villain of sorts on reality TV. Fans have claimed she's a bigger liar and disruptor than the other cast members on The Valley.

Janet made her social media accounts private amid backlash, though they appear to be made public again as of this writing.

Janet traveled to Switzerland with her husband, Jason Caperna, who also appears on The Valley, and their 18-month-old son, Cameron.

Janet told the Daily Mail that the online hate had become too great, saying in a statement, "I'm sick of threats and slurs being normalized because 'we signed up for this when we joined reality TV.'...I'm not ever going to pretend it's normal or acceptable...

The Valley star Janet Caperna ditched the spotlight after becoming the target of online hate. The Bravo newcomer, who joined the cast in Season 1,deleted her social media accounts following backlash and threats from viewers and left the USA.

Getting Away From Scary Threats

According to The Daily Mail, Janet received “death threats” and was repeatedly slammed online after her on-screen behavior caused bad reactions. The outlet reported that she locked her accounts in June, then deactivated her Instagram entirely by early July.

Fans think Janet is not a team player – Bravo

The outlet wrote, “It got so bad, she not only deleted her Instagram but even had a close friend publicly ask fans to stop attacking her.” Now, she left the country and went to Switzerland.

The relationship between Brittany Cartwright and Jax Taylor has been the main centerpiece of The Valley, and now the drama between them and the toxicity has taken its place. Be it Jax’s substance issues, the abuse Brittany had to face, and the fact that the divorced duo have a son together, Cruz.

The reality series has faced a lot of backlash with fans claiming the Bravo show is giving an abuser like Jax a platform. Alex Baskin, the executive producer of the series, has now shed some light on the situation and what it means for the future of the popular show and the upcoming third season.

During a conversation with Variety, Alex revealed that the end of Brittany and Jax’s marriage is a challenge for the team and the network. He pointed out...

For Brittany Cartwright and Jax Taylor, stars of Bravo’s hit reality show “The Valley,” toxic arguments were nothing new. It’s why Cartwright left Taylor in January 2024, taking their young son, Cruz, with her. But last July, two days before the show’s second season started production, Taylor crossed a line. Cartwright and Cruz visited him at the Valley Village home where he continued to live, and while looking at the family iPad, Taylor found intimate texts between Cartwright and a friend of his. As Taylor later recounted in the Season 2 premiere, “I went full fucking unhinged rage.”

In a frenzy, Taylor flipped over a coffee table — which, Cartwright says on the show, hit her knee, hurting her, and “it turned black immediately.” He punched the wall. He threw furniture, breaking one of the kitchen bar stools. All the while, 3-year-old Cruz was in the next room.

In the show’s April 15 premiere,...

As Bravo's The Valleyheads into its third season, speculation has arisen about what fans can expect from the show's future, particularly following the drama of Season 2.

Jax Taylor’s presence is still felt on Season 2 of The Valley. On last Tuesday’s episode, he sent rage texts to his estranged wife, Brittany Cartwright. He took a break from the show to enter a mental health facility. In a new interview, Kristen Doute admitted that his departure was a good thing for the cast.

Absence Brings The Cast Together

Kristen spoke to Access Hollywood’s “Housewives Nightcap” co-host Lauren Herbert to talk about the upcoming season of The Valley. During their talk, she revealed what it was like to have Jax away from the show. He entered a 30-day mental health facility to work on his anger, mental health, and substance abuse issues.
