Jax Taylor will not return for season 3 of The Valley, prioritizing his sobriety and mental health. His decision follows a tumultuous year, including a separation from Brittany Cartwright. Days before filming for season 2, Taylor exhibited violent behavior during an argument that injured Cartwright while their son was present. Following these incidents, Taylor was urged to seek help for his addiction and rage issues, leading him to check into a mental health facility for treatment.
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.
Two days before filming began for the second season of The Valley in July 2024, Taylor and Cartwright got into a fight, during which he flipped a coffee table. The table struck Cartwright, injuring her. He threw more furniture and punched the wall. Cartwright and Taylor's son, Cruz, was in the next room.
