Jax, 44, was on the show from 2013 to 2020.
Brittany and Jax had a long distance romance during the beginning of their relationship – and she made the decision to move to Los Angeles – for financial reasons.
‘It cost her money. This was the beginning of the show and it cost her $800 to $900,” Jax said on the podcast.
“She was in Kentucky (worked at a bar and Hooters) and $800 is a lot of money (to spend on plane tickets),” he added.
“It was about three months into[their relationship],” Brittany explained.
“Because I had to work, I went back and forth to see you. I was at work for a week and then would see you the following week. It was like two months,’ she said.
