Jax Taylor and Brittany Cartwright: They 'start fresh' after spinoff

jax taylor and Brittany Cartwright are reportedly starting fresh after a dramatic first season of their Bravo Tv spinoff series, "Vanderpump Rules: Jax and Brittany Take Kentucky." While the SUR Restaurant bartender and his girlfriend of two and a half years faced hardships throughout filming on the debut season of their reality show, things between them appear to be going well at the moment and during a new interview, Taylor said that he was hoping to start over with Cartwright once they returned home to Los Angeles from her hometown in Kentucky.

“We’re still happy, and we’re still together,” Taylor told The Daily Dish, according to a report by the Celebrity Insider on October 2. “When [Brittany] came home it was kind of like [we can] start fresh, clean slate, start over.”

Taylor and Cartwright began dating in early 2015. As fans of "Vanderpump Rules" will recall, the couple initially met one another in Las Vegas and quickly moved in together once Cartwright traveled to Los Angeles from Kentucky to heat things up with the former playboy.

Brittany Cartwright wants to get married

During the fourth season of "Vanderpump Rules," Brittany Cartwright made it clear that while Jax Taylor was hesitant about the idea of marriage, she wanted to one day get married and start a family.

Since then, Taylor has seemingly warmed up to the idea of a future marriage and during the first episode of "Vanderpump Rules: Jax and Brittany Take Kentucky," he was seen shopping for a ring.

Are Jax Taylor and his girlfriend ready to get engaged?
