He posted the tweet on Wednesday morning, days after revealing the two are open to 'dating other people.'

'You may want to ask Brittany who she's been sleeping with for the past 4 months....' Jax wrote on his Twitteraccount, before quickly deleting the post.

Hours later Jax — who recently stepped out with model Paige Woolen for a lunch date — returned to Twitter to share a snap of their 3-year-old son Cruz sleeping in bed with what appeared to beBrittany next to him.

One confused fan commented: 'Is that what the "ask her who she's been sleeping with for the past 4 months" meant?'

Others assumed Jax meant his deleted post as a joke, writing, 'Now we know who’s she' been sleeping with.'

'Is it you who Brit was sleeping with... or Cruz?' another wondered.

'I saw you posting last night about Brittany dating someone for the last 4 months,'someone else wrote.

'Why’d you delete your post?'

'We all know why you posted this.....you wanted us to start buzzing about Brittany in the bed...your embarrassingly predictable Jax,' another person chimed in.

Cartwright announced the pair's separation after almost five years of marriage.

The Valley star, 44, posted a since-deleted Tweet about Brittany, 35, on Wednesday morning, days after revealing the two are open to 'dating other people'; She is pictured in April

'You may want to ask Brittany who she's been sleeping with for the past 4 months....' Jax wrote on his Twitter account, before quickly deleting the post

In April, Cartwright shared that her 'sexless marriage' with Jax made her hit her 'breaking point' and admitted they've discussed dating other people amid separation, saying 'I don't want to be unhappy for the rest of my life.'

In an interview with Us Weekly, the Vanderpump Rules alum said that her and Taylor's sex life had 'dwindled so much' in recent years and that it began to affect her self esteem.

'I felt like I wasn't good enough. If you start to feel like your partner doesn't want you and they're also being mean to you, it's like, "What am I doing here?" I'm basically living with a roommate. I hit my breaking point,' she explained.

'I don't want to be unhappy for the rest of my life. I don't want to be in a sexless marriage for the rest of my life. I don't want to be arguing with my husband for the rest of my life.'

When she tried to speak to Taylor about their lack of sex, Cartwright claimed that he would tell her was '44 and I'm tired' — an answer that didn't suffice for her.

Earlier this week Jax denied he is dating anyone amid his separation from Brittany, after sparking romance rumors with model Paige.

On Friday's episode of his and Cartwright's When Reality Hits podcast, the reality star revealed he and his spouse are, still, 'trying to exhaust everything' before considering divorcing.

'I am not — I repeat not — dating anybody. I was seen out with someone and it was strictly lunch. Obviously, Brittany and I are separated and have been for a long time. What we are going through right now is tough. Marriage is not easy,' he explained.

The bar owner continued: 'We are trying to figure out a lot of different things: therapy, separation, and maybe, possibly, dating other people.'

The father-of-one said some of the 'different things' they are trying to salvage their relationship are 'therapy, separation, and maybe, possibly, dating other people.'

Hours later he returned to Twitter to share a snap of their 3-year-old son Cruz sleeping in bed with what appeared to be Brittany next to him

'We are trying to exhaust everything before we have to go down the divorce road — if that would be the case,' he told listeners. 'Part of taking some time apart means exploring other people. All marriages are different, but this is what is good for our marriage.'

Taylor said he and Cartwright 'are on the same page' about their current arrangement and 'have a couple of rules with it, but this is what we are exploring.'

Ultimately, the 'most important thing' to the pair is their son, Cruz, who turned three last month.

Taylor also claimed his estranged wife is also 'doing her own thing, too.'

Brittany revealed the reasons why she separated from Jax and moved out of their matrimonial house on Tuesday's season finale of The Valley on Bravo.

'A lot has happened with me and Jax,' Brittany said in a confessional. 'We were already having issues all summer long, but once the cameras stopped rolling, things just seemed like they were getting worse and worse and worse. So about six weeks ago, I separated from Jax. I moved into an AirBnb with Cruz because Jax would not leave the house. '

Brittany said that Jax not moving out showed his selfishness. Brittany said she left with Cruz because the situation at home was toxic. Brittany said Jax would come with a hangover and in the morning would be 'mean as a snake.'

'I just hit this point where I just started noticing everything that he did to me,' Brittany said. 'It just hit me like a ton of bricks.'

Brittany said during their relationship that Jax cheated on her, disrespected her and humiliated her.

'I have been through a lot of pain in this relationship,' Brittany said. 'I just can't deal with it anymore.'

Meanwhile Jax said: 'There were no affairs. There's no cheating. No abuse. There's none of that. I'm so triggered and I'm so, my fuse is this big. '

Jax said they were just not getting along.

Later, Brittany went to her house to pack up her things.

'So what's the plan?' Jax said.

'You are not going to get away for how you treated me all those years,' Brittany said.

On Thursday, Taylor denied that he is in a relationship with Paige Woolenan (seen above), who he was seen having a three-hour lunch with at Granville in Los Angeles over the weekend

The Kentucky native in a flashback with co-stars Kristen Doute and Zack Whickham talked about how Jax mistreated her.

'Does he say, ''I know I treat you like s***. I know I'm mean. I know I've called you fat and I've told you you're f***ing lazy and that you're not going to have any friends if you guys break up?'',' Kristen asked.

'That was one of the main things, him saying I have no friends here in L.A.,' Brittany said of reaching her limit with Jax.

'I wish you all knew the full story of this situation,' he tweeted. 'Its (sic) not what you think.'

The couple previously tied the knot at the Kentucky Castle in the Cartwright's home state in June 2019. They welcomed their first child together in April 2021.
