AceShowbiz - "Vanderpump Rules" stars react to Jax Taylor and Brittany Cartwright's split. Lisa Vanderpump has shared her thoughts on the matter, speculating that their breakup was a long time coming.
Speaking to E! News, Vanderpump said, "Everybody predicted that [they'd split] when they got married. They said, 'Oh this won't last long,' but I kind of never liked to draw conclusions."
Vanderpump referenced Taylor's past cheating scandals, implying they may have contributed to the rift. "I don't know what the reason was, but I imagine it was probably something to do with Jax's bad behavior. I'm not sure, but the indicator of future behavior is normally past behavior," she said.
The "Vanderpump Rules" cast also weighed in on the breakup, with Ariana Madix declaring herself "Team Brittany." Scheana Shay added, "You don't really know until you're in it. Look at Jax and Brittany! They were married and had a baby! I could not believe that when they did."
Despite the speculation, Taylor and Cartwright have denied infidelity rumors. A source previously told Us Weekly that infidelity was not an issue in their relationship.
Taylor and Cartwright announced their split last month after five years of marriage. Cartwright revealed she was moving into another home to take some space for the sake of her mental health.
"Marriages in general are very hard and I've had a particularly rough year this past year," she said. "Jax and I are taking time apart."
Despite the separation, the couple has denied that it was due to any malicious intent. "It's not evil or nastiness," Taylor told Page Six. "It's just two people that you now are hitting a 10-year mark in their marriage. We're just spending some time apart and just trying to re-assess, you know, our situation."
Taylor and Cartwright's love story will continue to unfold in the upcoming premiere of their Bravo spinoff, "The Valley".
