Brittany Cartwright Ends 2 Months Romance After Being Caught In Love Triangle Drama

Fans' predictions about Brittany Cartwright needing healing before love were right on the money, as she announces the end of her two-month relationship.

The "Vanderpump Rules" alum sparked concerns about her decision to re-enter the dating pool amid her contentious split from her estranged husband, Jax Taylor. Fans' worries skyrocketed when her then-boyfriend made waves for having a wife and three kids.

The conclusion of Brittany Cartwright's whirlwind romance comes a year after she filed to end her marriage to Jax Taylor in August 2024. The former couple were together for five years and welcomed a son named Cruz, who is under his mother's full custody.

Cartwright confirmed that her relationship with Brandon Hanson had ended two months after their romance made waves. She broke the news during a recent episode of her "When Reality Hits" podcast while responding to a fan's query about her new man.

"Little side note, I'm single. We actually did not last… We were very good friends before we started dating. It was kind of like a whirlwind relationship," Cartwright explained. She noted that their romance went public sooner than they wanted; however, the spotlight wasn't to blame for their split.

Cartwright claimed the main reason she and Hanson parted ways was that she could not handle a long-distance relationship. "He's got a lot of obligations with his three kids and jobs. We lived three hours away, so it was too tough to keep it going," she said.

Although Cartwright highlighted long distance and Hanson's responsibilities in her comments about the breakup, she assured fans that the split wasn't contentious. She claimed their brief romance ended "amicably," because they "really cared about each other."

Cartwright doubled down on being friends with Hanson before their relationship turned romantic, hoping they would remain pals. On the bright side, fans won't have to worry about Cartwright moping around or jumping into another relationship.

The TV personality declared that she would prioritize herself and embrace single life, as she has "a lot of healing and learning to do" following the turbulent end of her marriage.

Cartwright's decision to love herself and heal from her past matched the advice many gave her following the revelation of her relationship with Hanson.

The Blast covered the love triangle drama in August, reporting that Cartwright had sparked concerns for her relationship with a married man. Hanson's relationship status became known through a TikTok post about his blossoming romance with Cartwright.

Hanson's wife, identified as Jasina Stanko, slammed the news in the comments by revealing her connection to Cartwright's new man. "He's my husband!!! That man is married," her comment read, causing many to wonder if she meant they were dating.

However, Stanko stuck by her guns, assuring Cartwright's fans that she was legally married to Hanson. Contrary to her claims, an insider alleged that she and Hanson had separated months before his relationship with Cartwright began; however, fans were still disappointed.

Stanko's shocking confession sparked concerned reactions from many, while some disapproved of Cartwright's actions. The majority agreed that the entertainer needed to prioritize healing to stop attracting men like her estranged husband.

Other social media users wondered why Cartwright chose to be with an allegedly married man with kids, while some implored her to focus on raising her son. The drama followed Cartwright's confessions about her ex in a June episode of Bravo's "The Valley."

The Blast reported that she revealed Taylor had texted her after he was served with divorce papers. She recalled the message "wasn't aggressive" or a rant like she expected, noting that her estranged husband had claimed he saw the divorce coming.

Cartwright previously confessed that she knew it was time to end her union with Taylor after he spammed her with rage texts. She claimed that he cussed her and sent hurtful text messages during his 30-day stint in rehab.

She noted that his behavior proved he was incapable of change, solidifying her belief in ending their marriage. On the other hand, her estranged husband confessed in a May episode of his "In The Mind Of Jax Taylor" podcast that marriage was the wrong choice.

The Blast shared that he described himself as someone who wasn't meant to settle down. "I get bored being in relationships. I don't wanna be in a relationship. I just don't like it," Taylor admitted. He added that he knew deep down he shouldn't have gotten married to Cartwright.
