Vanderpump Rules alum Jax Taylor was spotted getting close to a mystery woman at The Oaks Tavern in Sherman Oaks amid his divorce from Brittany Cartwright.

The reality TV star and bar owner, 44, tried to go incognito with friends in a cap, but it didn’t work out TMZ reported that it was clear Friday evening that it was the father of one child.

The outlet reported that Jax and the unidentified woman arrived at the bar together around 11:30 p.m.

They joined a table of friends, some of whom took part in karaoke as they enjoyed their night out.

People on the scene reported that Jax and the woman left together about 90 minutes after arriving.

They looked very cozy as they headed out at 1am.

The outing comes after his estranged wife, 35, spoke to her costar Tom Schwartz on her podcast, When Reality Hits with Jax and Brittany, about the new low she and Jax have hit in their ever-rocky relationship.

“Right now… I can’t even be in the same room with him for very long,” she said in the episode that aired earlier this week. “The last time you were here… you were like, ‘I forgot you were even divorced.’ So it goes very much up and down.’

Schwartz said that from his point of view as both friends, he thought the two “respect each other’s boundaries well.”

“He didn’t do my job right, that’s for sure,” Brittany interjected.

“But we have to remember that I’m the one who lives somewhere else and… I feel like I’m the one taking all the hard knocks, even though I was the one who had to leave,” she explained.

Tom distanced himself for a moment and when he snapped back he joked, “I’m currently using Transcendental Meditation.

‘I went to another place. I’m back in Florida, I’m at the beach, I have a very cold Corona Light in my hand, a shot of Patrón, and I’m happy.”

Jax and Brittany’s relationship first started showing seismic cracks when they were both on Vanderpump Rules.

They eventually announced that they had split and “gone apart for a while” in a statement shared on Instagram in late February.

Over the years, fans on VPR and now The Valley have watched Jax criticize and berate his wife.

Brittany’s friends in The Valley responded to Jax’s bad mouthing of Brittany by criticizing her drinking.

“I’d drink too if I was married to Jax,” was the sentiment shared by most of her female costars.
