    Jax Taylor is celebrating 100 days of sobriety

    The former 'Vanderpump Rules' star recently confessed to being a "addict" and Jax has now taken to social media to reveal that he's been sober for 100 days


    Jax, 45 - who has a three-year-old son called Cruz with Brittany Cartwright, his estranged wife - wrote on Instagram: "100 days down and the rest of my life to go."

    The reality TV star's social media post also featured two countdown clocks that show he's lived without alcohol and drugs for 100 days.

    Jax - who split from Brittany in 2024 - previously admitted that he's been battling a cocaine addiction for more than 20 years.

    He said on the 'Hot Mic' podcast: "I have substance issues - primarily with cocaine. It's hard to say out loud. I've been dealing with this on and off since I was 23 and now I'm 45.

    "There was times where I would stop doing it but then there were times where I'd go heavy on it.

    "I just want to let people know this is a really, really tough disease and it's a really tough sickness."

    Brittany subsequently claimed that she spent years trying to help Jax to "get better".

    The TV star said on the 'When Reality Hits' podcast: "No one wants Jax to be better more than I do, let's be real.

    "I tried and tried and tried for years to help this man get better and for us to be a happy family, I was deeply and madly in love with him, there's no one that can ever deny that. You know? My love was real.

    "And I tried very, very hard to make sure that - especially after we had our son - that he was getting the help he needed."
