Brittany Cartwright is enjoying the single life amid her divorce from estranged husband Jax Taylor — and recent fling with Julian Sensley.
The “Valley” star addressed her new single status while speaking to Page Six exclusively on the red carpet at Us Weekly’s Reality Stars of the Year event in Los Angeles on Thursday.
When asked whether she was “enjoying being single,” Cartwright smiled and said, “I mean, yeah!”
She also confirmed to us that fans will get a glimpse of her single life on the upcoming second season of “The Valley.”
Brittany Cartwright spoke to Page Six at Us Weekly’s Reality Stars of the Year event in Los Angeles on Thursday.
The “Valley” star said she’s enjoying being single amid her divorce from Jax Taylor.
“Maybe a little bit, but I’m not, like, looking into that too much,” she explained. “I just got a lot going on right now.”
In addition to her ongoing divorce from Taylor, Page Six recently broke the news that Cartwright had a “casual” physical relationship with Sensley, who used to play basketball and work the door at “Vanderpump Rules”-affiliated bar TomTom. However, their fling has since ended.
Cartwright, 35, expressed to Page Six how “hard” the last year has been amid her separation from Taylor, 45. The two have been learning how to amicably co-parent their 3-year-old son, Cruz.
Cartwright stayed tight-lipped on her “casual” romance with Taylor’s friend, Julian Sensley.
Page Six broke the news that Cartwright and Sensley were previously involved over the summer.
“It’s been very, very hard [and] probably the hardest year of my life,” she admitted. “But, at the same time, I’m just trying to stay positive. I’m stepping into my own, so I feel a lot of strength, and a different me is starting to come out. I kind of enjoy that, as well.”
Taylor was also at the event on Thursday — but seemingly avoided a run-in with his ex.
He confessed in his own interview with Page Six that the last year has been the “hardest” for him. However, he’s trying to take things “day by day.”
“In the 11 and a half years I’ve been on TV, this was by far the hardest year I’ve ever had to film [and] by far the hardest year of my life,” he admitted. “Other than my father’s death, this was by far up there. It was very, very hard.”
Taylor also spoke to Page Six on Thursday about how “hard” the divorce has been.
The dad of one, pictured here in June, confessed that he’s “nervous” to see how Season 2 of “The Valley” will play out.
The Jax’s Studio City co-owner also told us he is “very nervous” about what viewers will see on the upcoming season of “The Valley.” He hopes he will be in a “better place” by the time it airs.
“This divorce is a lot harder than I thought it was gonna be, but the most important thing is my son,” he gushed. “All I care about is that little boy and making sure he’s happy and has a great life. We’re adults; we’ll handle it.”
Taylor confessed that he and Cartwright are still navigating co-parenting and have their “good days” and their “bad days.”
Taylor told us that he’s taking the divorce “day by day,” but their priority remains co-parenting their 3-year-old son, Cruz.
Cartwright filed for divorce from Taylor in August after five years of marriage.
“Cruz is No. 1 right now, and as long as we’re good for him, that’s all that matters,” he continued. “We’ll get through this. It’s like anything else.”
Taylor and Cartwright joined a slew of other Bravolebrities and reality TV stars who stepped out for the event, including Abby Lee Miller, Gabby Windey, Kyle Richards and Lindsay Hubbard.
The former couple announced their separation in February. Cartwright officially filed for divorce from Taylor in August after five years of marriage.
