Jax Taylor Demands Brittany Cartwright Pay Him $17K A MONTH After Claiming She RUINED His Career!
Jax Taylor wants Brittany Cartwright to pay up! And we’re talking BIG money!
The former Vanderpump Rules star is demanding a whopping $17,401 PER MONTH in spousal support from his estranged wife!
According to court documents obtained by TMZ, Jax is also asking Brittany to cover $250,000 in attorney’s fees and another $10,000 for a forensic accountant.
Yes, seriously!
So why does Jax think he deserves all this money? Well, he’s claiming he’s currently unemployed and that Brittany is responsible for ruining his career! In the filing, he accuses his ex of trying to paint him as an abuser, allegedly costing him opportunities, including a role on Special Forces and the renewal of his partnership with Carpe Deodorant.
But here’s where things get interesting!
Despite claiming he has no steady income, Jax reported an average monthly income of $30,334 over the past year, along with approximately $464,671 in bank accounts! Not exactly what we’d call broke!
And apparently, Jax is struggling to maintain the lifestyle he became accustomed to during their marriage.
According to The US Sun, he claims his final Bravo holding fee arrived in October, leaving him without reliable income. His filing also details their former lavish lifestyle, including a $2 million home, luxury shopping, expensive vacations, and thousands spent monthly on personal care.
Of course, this is just the latest chapter in their VERY messy divorce! As Page Six points out, Brittany previously obtained a temporary restraining order against Jax after accusing him of emotional, financial, and physical abuse. Jax has pushed back against her allegations and accused her of damaging his reputation and livelihood.
And money isn’t the only thing they’re fighting over! Jax also plans to ask the court to remove Brittany’s tie-breaking authority over medical decisions involving their 5-year-old son, Cruz, alleging neglect and unreasonable delays in his care and school enrollment.
A hearing is scheduled for December 30, so this battle is far from over!
