Jax Taylor & Brittany Cartwright Had To Film Together For The Valley – And It Does NOT Look Pleasant!

Things didn’t go so well for Jax Taylor and Brittany Cartwright on Friday while filming The Valley… because they had to get in close quarters to shoot some scenes just DAYS after she filed for divorce!

New video footage shows Jax and Brittany along with the rest of the Valley cast working hard to get production going during a scene on Friday afternoon in El Lay. Fresh off the bombshell divorce filing, and yet the show must go on, as they say! And while there was a big group of co-stars, producers, and production assistants around them, that doesn’t mean filming was a smooth experience…

Per TMZ, which captured video footage of the situation, it appeared as though Brittany was in high spirits and busy laughing with pals throughout the entire filming round. Jax, on the other hand, appeared to be a good deal more sullen — like he wasn’t in as good of a mood to be filming the wacky hijinks that they had going on!

But Britt seemingly had not a care in the world out there while talking and laughing with friends. And at one point, her high energy worked its way perilously close to Jax on the sidelines of the ball field, too. Right up until a friend pulled Brittany away and had her get some distance from her estranged husband!!

You can see the duo filming together awkwardly in the video (below):

There was one other wrinkle in that filming project this week, too. Per that same news outlet, a witness supposedly overheard Jax talking to Kristen Doute about how he was getting out of control, and that is the reason he went off to that in-patient mental health center to regroup and get back on track.

Whoa.

As you’ll no doubt recall, Taylor checked into an in-patient treatment center for about a month back in the middle of the summer. Clearly, there was something that he wanted to get right. And if this witness’ observation is to be believed, it definitely sounds significant. Scary! Sending all the love and light in the world on that!

Reactions, y’all?? What do U make of Jax and Brittany continuing on The Valley even as their life together comes apart at the seams? It’s going to make for some interesting TV, no doubt… but also some super awkward and difficult moments for the two of them. Oof!
