Jax Taylor Enters Treatment for Mental Health Struggles

Jax Taylor is working on his mental health.

The Vanderpump Rules alum has entered in-patient treatment for mental health struggles, his rep confirms to E! News.

“Jax has always been candid about his mental health struggles, especially during the past few months on his podcast,” his spokesperson said in a July 30 statement. “This is a particularly sensitive time for him and his family. They ask for privacy and respect until he is ready to speak more on this matter.”

News of Jax’s treatment comes five months after Brittany Cartwright—with whom he shares 3-year-old son Cruz—announced that they had separated following four years of marriage and nearly a decade together.

At the time, Brittany said that she had a “particularly rough year this past year.”

“On my last podcast I alluded to many marriages go through rocky times,” she shared in a February episode of their joint podcast When Reality Hits. “Jax and I are taking time apart and I made the decision to move into another home to take some space for the sake of my mental health.”
