And then, on top of it, it going public before you&#8217;ve even had the time to digest it. It&#8217;s hard.<\/p>\n<p>\n&#8220;Getting those divorce papers, it&#8217;s devastating.<\/p>\n<p>\n&#8220;We&#8217;re both so hurt. We both hurt each other so much in the last couple of years. We don&#8217;t have anything left.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\nJax felt &#8220;safe&#8221; during his stint in rehab, but reality hit him when he returned home.<\/p>\n<p>\nThe TV star &#8211; who married Brittany back in 2019 &#8211; said: &#8220;You walk out the doors, and it&#8217;s like, life just hits you.<\/p>\n<p>\n&#8220;Now, okay, I got to remember everything that I&#8217;ve learned, I got to move into this new place, I got to see my son, I got to face everybody. It&#8217;s a lot to take in at once. I just don&#8217;t want to go back into my old ways, because it&#8217;s very easy to slip.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\nMeanwhile, Jax previously admitted that he&#8217;s been battling a cocaine addiction for more than 20 years.<\/p>\n<p>\nHe said on the Hot Mic podcast: &#8220;I have substance issues &#8211; primarily with cocaine. It\u2019s hard to say out loud. I\u2019ve been dealing with this on and off since I was 23 and now I\u2019m 45.<\/p>\n<p>\n&#8220;There was times where I would stop doing it but then there were times where I\u2019d go heavy on it.<\/p>\n<p>\n&#8220;I just want to let people know this is a really, really tough disease and it\u2019s a really tough sickness.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\nBrittany subsequently claimed that she spent years trying to help Jax to &#8220;get better&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>\nShe said on When Reality Hits: &#8220;No one wants Jax to be better more than I do, let\u2019s be real.<\/p>\n<p>\n&#8220;I tried and tried and tried for years to help this man get better and for us to be a happy family, I was deeply and madly in love with him, there\u2019s no one that can ever deny that.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><!-- Pagination --><\/p>\n<p><!-- playbuzz --><br \/>\n<!-- end playbuzz--><\/p>\n<p><!-- \n\n<div data-cn-project=\"femalefirst\">\n    \n<\/div>\n\n --><\/p>\n<p><!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><br \/>\n<!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><\/p>\n<p>    <!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><br \/>\n    <!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.femalefirst.co.uk\/celebrity\/jax-taylor-devastated-divorce-brittany-cartwright-1420672.html?f=rss\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>19 June 2025 Jax Taylor found being served divorce papers to be &#8220;devastating&#8221;.
