A leaked DM reportedly sent by Jax Taylor appears to show The Valley star taking aim at his estranged wife, Brittany Cartwright, by accusing her of drinking heavily and editing her photos to look different.

On Tuesday night, amid the latest episode of The Valley, Jax’s apparent message was shared online with claims of being “vile” and “disgusting.” Plus, a number of promoters appeared to cancel dates for his live In the Mind of a Man podcast tour.

“She doesn’t look like that and she was hammered,” Jax, 45, reportedly wrote to Cici Loves You on Instagram, along with a photo of Brittany, 36, posing in a dress.

Then, Cici asked, “What do you mean she doesn’t look like that? This is her no?” Jax replied, “She edits her pics.”

In the caption of their post, Cici revealed there were far harsher DMs than the one they shared.

“These are the ‘nicest’ I could find. I’ve always been very open to Jax. After everything he did I always held the hope that he would actually change and he would be a ‘family man,’” they explained, in part. “But if you think about it .. this is like this for at least a decade [plus] that we know of and probably even [two] decades.”

Cici went on to suggest that Jax only does therapy during filming and asked, “Does he even wanna change?”

In other screenshots with the post, Cici looked back on other conversations they reportedly had with Jax, noting that he had allegedly been “quite harsh” when speaking about Brittany. They even accused Jax of alluding to Brittany being “bigger” in real life and noted that he was “gaslighting” her about her alcohol consumption.

“It’s vile, disgusting and honestly scary,” they wrote, adding that Jax only came out as an addict before the season because Brittany had exposed him during filming months prior.

Cici then stated that Jax was “extremely performative and not genuine” and described him as a “narcissistic abuser.”

Meanwhile, in another post on Instagram, it was revealed that Jax’s podcast tour seemed to be getting shorter.

“People have been letting these places know that Jax is not a person to host,” Vanderpod Recaps wrote on Instagram, along with a series of screenshots pertaining to the tour.

In a March 13 post, 12 live shows were announced in cities including Nashville, Orlando, Tampa Bay, Austin, Houston, Dallas, Chicago, Detroit, Scottsdale, Miami, Atlanta, and Washington, D.C. At the time, the first show was set for April 18, and many other dates had not yet been announced.

But amid his antics against Brittany, a Reddit user shared a message from Wanderlust Wine Co., which was hosting Jax’s event in Austin, Texas. In it, the company was replying to someone who had voiced concerns about their alignment with Jax.

“Howdy! … Thank you so much for reaching out and for bringing this to our attention … We completely understand your concerns and take them very seriously. After an emergency meeting with our team and partners, we’ve taken immediate steps to begin pivoting from this host,” they wrote. “Since this was a third-party production, we’ve been working closely with them to make a change, and they’re already in the process of finding a new host who better reflects our values and the spirit of what we what to create … We’re really grateful for your voice, your support, and for holding us to the standards we all believe in.”

The Austin location of Jax’s “tour” gave him the boot.

Although tickets are still available for the Wanderlust Wine Co.’s event, Vanderpod Recaps stated that it was missing from a recent post from In the Mind of a Man‘s Instagram account. In that post, only eight shows were featured, including events in Boston, Austin, Dallas, Atlanta, Philadelphia, Chicago, Detroit, and Nashville scheduled from May 6 to June 3.

More recently, the current lineup showed the same dates, but with Austin swapped for Houston. However, in the latest look at Eventbrite‘s website, the Wanderlust show remains, as do Houston, Dallas, Chicago, and Detroit. The other tour dates, in Boston, Atlanta, Philadelphia, and Nashville, appear to be missing.

The Valley season two airs Tuesdays at 8/7c on Bravo.
