Jax Taylor Cringes Looking Back, Admits He Looks Disgusting
The Valley star, Jax Taylor, cringed when he looked back on himself and shared that he was disgusting. He is over one hundred days sober, so he is seeing everything through a new lens now. So, what did he have to say upon reflection? Keep reading for further details.
Jax Taylor Cringes Looking Back
It has been a long year for Jax Taylor. His wife, Brittany Cartwright, ended their marriage after nearly five years. This all played out in Season 1 of The Valley and will continue into Season 2. During filming, Jax got so out of hand that he entered a treatment facility. As he came out, he shared that he had been diagnosed with PTSD and Bipolar Disorder. Eventually, Jax confessed he had been an addict for twenty years and was finally in recovery. He now has over one hundred days sober and is immensely proud of his achievement.
One part of recovery and healing is looking back at oneself and seeing what everyone else saw. Ahead of the Season 2 premiere of The Valley, Jax is now sharing how disturbed he was to see himself. It was the hardest time for him to see what he looked like in the upcoming season as he was a disaster:
“It is really rough. I don’t know who that person is. I look disgusting. I give myself the ick just looking at it really.”
The cast celebrated the premiere of the new season on Thursday, April 10th, with a red carpet event. That was when Jax was so transparent about being “disgusting,” but what was it in particular? Was it his conflict with his co-stars, his estranged wife filing for divorce, or something else? He noted he was a “shell of himself” and went on to add:
“I was very disgusted with myself, very emotional and very sad. But again, that was a year ago. I’m in a very different place now.”

Right now, Jax Taylor is focused on himself, his health, and his son with Brittany, who is autistic:
“I’m healthier. I put on a little weight — healthy weight. I am really into my fitness and health and trying to take care of my body. I’m trying to make things right with Brittany [Cartwright] and take care of our son.”
