Jax Taylor is 'dreading' The Valley season two
Jax Taylor has admitted to being fearful of watching season two of 'The Valley'.
Jax Taylor is "dreading" his appearance in season two of 'The Valley'.
The 45-year-old star has endured a turbulent time over the last 12 months, and Jax has admitted to feeling anxious ahead of season two of the reality show.
Jax - who split from his wife Brittany Cartwright in 2024 - told People: "The last thing in the world I want right now is for you guys to see what happened to me last year.
"But I gotta look at the silver lining, you know? I hope to help out somebody that's going through what I'm going through. I think men's mental health is kind of looked over. I want to share my story."
Jax recently opened up about his struggles with drug addiction, after checking himself into a treatment facility in September.
But Jax is still fearful of how he'll be portrayed in season two of 'The Valley'.
The reality star - who has also been diagnosed with bipolar disorder and PTSD - shared: "It's going to be bad. It's going to be really, really bad.
"But you got to remember, this was shot a year ago. Everyone's in a different place. Everything's different now, different relationships, different dynamics."
Jax previously admitted that he's been battling a cocaine addiction for more than 20 years.
He said on the 'Hot Mic' podcast: "I have substance issues - primarily with cocaine. It’s hard to say out loud. I’ve been dealing with this on and off since I was 23 and now I’m 45.
"There was times where I would stop doing it but then there were times where I’d go heavy on it.
"I just want to let people know this is a really, really tough disease and it’s a really tough sickness."
Brittany subsequently claimed that she spent years trying to help Jax to "get better".
She said on the 'When Reality Hits' podcast: "No one wants Jax to be better more than I do, let’s be real.
"I tried and tried and tried for years to help this man get better and for us to be a happy family, I was deeply and madly in love with him, there’s no one that can ever deny that."
