Brittany Cartwright, Andy Cohen and Jax Taylor at 'The Valley' season two reunion. Trae Patton/Bravo Logo text The Valley has picked up cameras on its third season after TMZ published photos of Jax Taylor vacationing with he and Brittany Cartwright‘s longtime publicist Lori Krebs, The Hollywood Reporter has learned.
The photos, shared on Monday via the outlet, saw Taylor and Krebs embracing closely in a pool in Mexico. Witnesses also told TMZ the pair “were getting close and hugging throughout the day and weren’t trying to hide they were together.”
In September 2024, a blind item emerged that alleged Cartwright’s ex-husband and former publicist (whom she reportedly fired after the photos came out) hooked up in a bathroom during a work trip to Canada. Cartwright denied the claims on her podcast, saying that Krebs was a “very, very good friend” and an “amazing publicist.”

The Valley is currently airing its third season, while the reunion episodes have already been filmed, meaning Bravo picked up production seemingly as most of the installment footage had already been captured. While Taylor is at the core of this off-camera scandal, he has not filmed any additional scenes for The Valley season three.
Taylor departed the Vanderpump Rules spinoff after season two to focus on his sobriety, mental health and co-parenting with Cartwright (they share a son). His exit from The Valley came after a very intense second season, which centered around a domestic incident that occurred between Taylor and Cartwright.
This is certainly not the first time that Bravo has picked up cameras to film the fallout of a scandal. Most notably, Vanderpump Rules resumed production on its 10th season after it was revealed that Tom Sandoval cheated on Ariana Madix by having an affair with his co-star Rachel Leviss. The success of that season birthed The Valley spinoff, but led to the reboot of the main series in its 12th season.
