Jax Taylorhas refiled legal documents amid his split fromBrittany Cartwright, after his most recent response to his ex’s divorce filingcontained several errors.

Taylor’s attorney also amended his child support and custody requests, stating in the new documents that Taylor would consent to let Cartwright, 35, haveprimary custodyof their3-year-old son, Cruz, while Taylor would have visitation with their son every Wednesday and every other weekend.

In his previous handwritten response to Cartwright’spetition to divorce, Taylor incorrectly stated the pair were not legally married.

The timeline of their relationship was also listed incorrectly in Taylor’s original response. TheVanderpump Rulesalums weremarried on June 29, 2019, and publicly announced their separation on Feb. 29, 2024. In Cartwright’s original filing, she named their date of separation as Jan. 24, 2024, while Taylor initially listed the date as Sept. 26, 2024.

Taylor also previously checked a box indicating “other” when it came to determining child support for their son, leading to further confusion.

Cartwright cited “irreconcilable differences” as the reason for their split.

After Taylor’s filing on Wednesday, Cartwright called out her estranged husband’s errors on the documents, writing in an Instagram comment left under anE! News postthat the pair are still “legally married.”

“I’m guessing paperwork is hard for some people. 🫣,” she wrote.

“I think it’s been very obvious how much I loved him and how hard I tried to work on our relationship,” she continued. “I wanted to make sure I did every single thing I could possibly do to give it a chance and to try for my family, for my son, for my future, but I couldn’t do it anymore. I had to put myself first.”
