Cartwright re-posted a video of Taylor announcing he was on Cameo.
“I’d love to help you guys out,” Taylor said in the clip. “Also, you’re helping me out because I’ll be donating my money to cancer research. Esophageal cancer, because obviously that is near and dear to my heart, so hit me up. I’d love to shoot you a message.”
On top of the video, Cartwright exposed her ex, writing she “just realized Jax has this on his cameo and it’s disgusting because he hasn’t donated a dime. FYI @cameo.”

Taylor and Cartwright separated in February, candidly sharing the news with listeners of their “Reality Hits” podcast.
“I made the decision to move into another home to take some space for the sake of my mental health,” Cartwright shared on the podcast on February 29, adding she was uncertain “what the future holds.”
The news of their split wasn’t shocking, as the pair had a ton of tension during the first season of The Valley.
Since production of The Valley’s second season is currently underway, it’s likely a lot of their more recent drama will play out on camera for the world to see. As Bravo says, we’ll have to wait and watch what happens.
