Jax and Brittany announced their separation in February, and this week Brittany made it official and filed for divorce.
According to court docs obtained by "Extra," she cited “irreconcilable divorces” for the breakdown of their five-year marriage.
Cartwright listed January 24, 2024, as their separation date.
Brittany is requesting physical and legal custody of their son Cruz, 3, with visitation rights for Jax.
Cartwright opposes spousal support for either party.
The news comes a week after news broke that Jax was checking out of an in-patient treatment facility.
In April, Jax discussed the possibility of a reconciliation with Cartwright at the 2024 White House Correspondents’ Dinner, which Brittany also attended separately.
He told "Extra," “Possibly. I guess that's gonna be her call, but right now I am just taking a little time out for myself. I believe mental health is an important issue. I'm dealing with a lot of things personally... I want to make sure I am in a good place before I go back to her. I have to be good before I can be good to her. I have to work on myself a little bit.”
