Brittany Cartwright rocks skimpy Daisy Dukes and Hooters t-shirt while out in West Hollywood… after filing for full custody of her son with Jax Taylor
Just days after the news of her filing for primary legal and physical custody of her three-year-old son Cruz became public, Brittany Cartwright stepped out to do a little shopping.
The Vanderpump Rules star, 35, made her way along Oakberry Acai in West Hollywood on Friday to browse at the various shops along the street dressed in skimpy Daisy Dukes.
Along with her leggy shorts, she also wore a two-tone green Hooters t-shirt, which she tied into a small knot below her stomach, that read: ‘delightfully tacky yet unrefined.’
She wore a stylish brown purse over her left shoulder and finalized the look with brown sneakers.
Cartwright — whose ex Jax Taylor recently admitted he is a ‘narcissist’ — had her brown locks, with lightened blonde strips in the front, cascading down her shoulders.

The reality star’s sighting comes weeks after she filed for divorce from husband Jax and requested primary legal and physical custody of Cruz, although it wasn’t made public until a couple of days ago.
Taylor, who recently revealed he was diagnosed with bipolar disorder and post-traumatic stress disorder after a recent mental health facility stay, said her filing was the ‘right decision for their family.’
‘I understand why she did [it]. the Vanderpump star confessed on his When Reality Hits podcast. ‘I’ll always love and care for Brittany. She’s the mother of my beautiful son [Cruz].’
He went on to reveal his intention for their relationship to ‘be amicable,’ adding that they ‘hopefully [become] really, really good friends one day.’
Jax also recently revealed he had ‘no idea he was a narcissist’ until his 30 day stay at a mental health facility.
He spoke candidly about his treatment as he made an appearance on his When Reality Hits podcast – where he took questions from fans.
When he was asked if he thought he was a ‘textbook narcissist’ the proprietor of Jax’s bar didn’t hesitate in answering ‘yes.’
‘I am a narcissist, yes,’ he continued. ‘I breadcrumb, I love bomb [and also] gaslighting. I’m missing some but I do all these things. I had no idea there were terms for these things.’

He said he would ‘look up the definition’ for various terms only to realize it describes his behavior perfectly.
‘So yes, I have to humble myself and say, “Do you think you’re a narcissist?” And I do,’ he said. “I don’t know how I became one. [But] I do believe I’m a narcissist.’
Taylor and Cartwright first met at a bar while vacationing in Las Vegas in the early part of 2015.
At that time, he was starring in the third season of Vanderpump Rules, while Cartwright worked as a waitress at Hooters.
The pair ended up going Instagram official with their romance with a post on May 25, 2015.

While Cartwright has requested primary legal and physical custody over their child, she is open to allowing him visitations for her estranged husband.
Additionally, Cartwright is seeking to block the ability of the court to award either one of them with spousal support.
Cartwright cited their date of separation as January 24.
She maintains that Taylor cheated on her, disrespected her and humiliated her during their relationship over the years, and that she just had enough.
‘I have been through a lot of pain in this relationship,’ the mother of one said. ‘I just can’t deal with it anymore.’
