Jax Taylor and Brittany Cartwright have finally settled custody of their son, Cruz, nearly two years after separating.
The “Vanderpump Rules” stars reached an agreement Monday, according to documents obtained by Page Six.
Instead of paying each other child support, the Bravolebrities are responsible for the expenses accrued when the 4-year-old is in their individual care.
Taylor, 46, has custody of Cruz Wednesday nights and every other weekend. Cartwright, for her part, claims the rest of the time.
The agreement outlined an alternating holiday schedule for the pair, with Cartwright, 37, getting Christmas every year.
She previously told Page Six this holiday is a non-negotiable, explaining, “Cruz has got all of his cousins and family and so much love [in Kentucky]. … I don’t ever want him to miss that. And I don’t want to miss it either.”
While the former couple have agreed to share joint legal custody of their little one, Cartwright has tie-breaking authority over medical decisions.
The “Valley” stars, notably, have agreed to not be under the influence of alcohol, marijuana or any other form of illegal drug while caring for Cruz.
They may not introduce their child to new romantic partners for at least six months.
TMZ was first to report the news of the exes’ custody arrangement.
Taylor and Cartwright called it quits on their four-year marriage in January 2024 and have yet to finalize their divorce.
She filed for divorce in August 2024.
Although Taylor filed court documents the following month giving his ex full legal and physical custody of Cruz, his rep later told Page Six that the former Sur bartender had “made errors” that would be “amended without delay.”
The spokesperson added, “Jax and Brittany have already long resolved all matters related to custody of Cruz, and will continue to work together privately for the best interest of their son, which remains their overriding concern.”
Cartwright and Taylor’s love story began in 2015, with the latter popping the question three years later.
After the duo wed in Kentucky in June 2019, they welcomed Cruz in April 2021.
