‘One day they are living the glam party life at SUR with Lisa Vanderpump and the next they’re married and dealing with homeownership and children,’ the synopsis reads about Brittany and Jax.
‘From bottle service to 𝚋𝚊𝚋𝚢 bottles, close friends and reality stars find their way out of the young and fast life of the Hollywood lights. They are getting ready to grow up and have moved to the serenity of The Valley, where they navigate bustling businesses, rocky relationships and feisty friendships.’
Also on Thursday Cartwright shared a photo of a craft project her son Cruz – who she shares with Jax – made for her for Mother’s Day: ‘Picked up Cruz from school & I about cried, I love these little moments.’
She also talked working out more these days which makes her feel good. The star is the brand ambassador for Jenny Craig, a home delivery plan.
After the birth of her son, Brittany lost 45lbs using Jenny Craig and says the plan empowered her to look and feel her best. Then she took some time out.
Now the 35-year-old Vanderpump Rules veteran is back with the company as she hopes to maintain what she lost.
In a wide ranging interview with DailyMail.com, the beauty shared that she is happy with her weight and just wants to keep herself in check, loves interval training, indulges in chocolate lava cake as the Jenny Craig version is not bad for you, and looks forward to welcoming a second child soon.

Cartwright likes her shape these days and just wants to maintain it.
‘The first time around with Jenny Craig I lost 45 pounds because I just had my 𝚋𝚊𝚋𝚢 Cruz,’ she told DailyMail.com. ‘I want to maintain my weight so I can stay healthy for my kid. Chasing around a toddler takes energy!’
She then said: ‘I love my body and I feel great where I’m at I’ve learned portion control and intermittent fasting which is so helpful. I love this program, it really works for me as they teach you a lot about how to eat.’

And she named some of her favorite dishes: ‘I like to eat their chicken fettuccine Alfredo, the chicken carbonara, pizza, cheeseburgers the breakfast omelet.
‘There’s so much they offer that I like and I have a huge sweet tooth so I can have those things. I like the chocolate lava cake, the cheesecake, and the lemon cake because I love sweets,’ she told DailyMail.com.
And she said she has not used drugs to get thin.
‘I have not tried Ozempic because I’ve wanted to stay away from those kind of things I heard it makes you sick and nauseous,’ the star told DailyMail.com.
‘I already have such a sensitive stomach and I don’t want to feel sick. I also feel feel like it’s not realistic long-term,’ she said.

She has a diet: ‘Intermittent fasting has been a huge help as well, snacking has always been an issue for me so I try my hardest to stop at a certain point’; seen left last year and right in 2021
‘I will not lie I would love to lose five or 10 more pounds but my big priorities just to be fair I want to feel good about myself,’ said Brittany to DailyMail.com.
She works out 4 to 5 times a week, she shared.
‘I’m a runner and I use weights and I love interval training, it’s really good for me,’ said the TV star.
‘I often do powerwalking and sprinting back-and-forth – running is good for my mental health and it’s so nice to get outside and go for a walk.
‘If I don’t work out, I just feel sluggish.’
As far as expanding her family, she is up for it.
‘We do want to welcome a second child. I definitely want another 𝚋𝚊𝚋𝚢 100%. I am not pregnant right now but I’ve talked to Jax about it. We don’t want our children to be too far apart in age.’
She added that her marriage is better than ever.
‘Everything is going great with Jax, he’s an amazing father and it’s made me fall in love with him even more. It’s been so good for our relationship to be working again. It got a little weird after we left Vanderpump Rules, but now we’re back on track and I think it’s good for us to both stay busy.’
In addition to the new show The Valley, they have a new bar and podcast. ‘We’re very grateful for all that we have and all these opportunities,’ noted the pinup.

As far as The Valley, she said her costars are her real friends.
‘These people have been in our lives for many years – they’re real and relatable people. There will also be some drama because of all the personalities involved, of course,’ she shared with DailyMail.com.
She also touched on pal Lala Kent announcing last week that she wants a second child via artificial insemination.
‘I’m so proud of Lala for talking about how she wants to have a second child on her own with IUI – she’s so strong and she went through so much with Randall Emmett and their break up, so I get it she’s done with dating for now.
‘It’s cool that she wants to do artificial insemination and doesn’t want to wait around for a man to have a 𝚋𝚊𝚋𝚢. I respect that so much – so many women will be empowered by her,’ she told DailyMail.com.
