Brittany Cartwright slammed fans who dared to comment about her 3-year-old son Cruz’s “well-being” amid her separation from Jax Taylor.
“You guys can reel in the drama of my life I don’t care but leave my innocents [sic] sons name out of it!!! Don’t act like you know anything about him watching 30 mins of a show recorded last summer,” she wrote in a pointed Instagram Story message Tuesday.
“I do everything I possibly can for him so how dare some of you!?” the “Valley” star continued. “ENOUGH he is a perfect and innocent child and I will not have strangers acting like they know what’s going on in his life.
“Talk about me talk about his father I don’t care but enough is enough!!!!!!”
Cartwright, 35, did not reveal the comments she was referencing, but a source told People she is “hurt” by remarks about her son’s “well-being.”
“She is highly protective over her son as any caring mother would be. Despite what she is going through personally in her marriage, her and Jax have always and continue to put their son first,” the insider explained.
“He remains their number one priority and they have done a great job co-parenting during this rather turbulent time.”
The source added, “They are both incredibly attentive and loving parents and give Cruz absolutely everything he needs. He is a happy child and that’s all that really matters.”
Reps for Cartwright did not immediately respond to Page Six’s request for comment.
The Bravolebrity welcomed Cruz with her estranged husband in April 2021. The exes announced their separation in February on their podcast, “When Reality Hits with Jax and Brittany.”
“I’m taking things one day at a time,” Cartwright said at the time. “I don’t know what the future holds, but right now my focus is on being the best mom to Cruz.”
Cartwright gave more insight into the their split in March, telling TMZ, “I’ve asked him for a while to do certain things and nothing has come from that.
“Whenever you fight with somebody for so long, there’s only so much you can take, and you know, I deserve better, Cruz deserves better.”
The following month, she tripled down on her stance that she had to take time away from “hard to deal with” Taylor, 44, for the sake of their son.
“I think it’s honestly been better because we aren’t fighting in front of [Cruz],” she told People. “And for me, I think that’s what is most important right now. Because that’s why I had to get him out of that situation in the first place.”
The “Vanderpump Rules” alums are seemingly getting along since they attended the White House Correspondents’ Garden Brunch in Washington, D.C. together in April.
They also celebrated their son’s birthday that same month.
Although that same month, Taylor claimed he was “working” on himself to win Cartwright back, he stepped out with model Paige Woolen last week for a three-hour lunch date.
