Bravo restarts filming on The Valley after Jax Taylor photos
Developed over time first seen 2 months ago
Bravo has resumed filming season three of "The Valley" to capture the fallout after TMZ published photographs of Jax Taylor on holiday in Mexico with Lori Krebs, the long-time publicist for both him and his ex-wife Brittany Cartwright. The move follows a familiar Bravo pattern of restarting production to document real-life drama, most notably when "Vanderpump Rules" resumed filming its tenth season after Tom Sandoval's affair with Rachel Leviss came to light. Taylor himself left "The Valley" after its second season and has not filmed additional scenes for the new run, meaning the reaction is being captured through his former castmates rather than him directly.
The photographs, shared on Monday, showed Taylor and Krebs embracing in a pool, with witnesses telling TMZ the pair were openly affectionate and made no attempt to hide their closeness. The episode revived a September 2024 blind item alleging a prior encounter between Taylor and Krebs during a work trip to Canada, which Cartwright denied at the time, describing Krebs as a "very, very good friend" and an "amazing publicist"; she is reported to have since dropped Krebs as her publicist. With reunion episodes already filmed before the story broke, the extra footage will be woven into the remainder of the currently airing third season.

The Valley is a Bravo reality programme following a group of friends in Los Angeles as they balance relationships, family life and work. It grew out of Vanderpump Rules and includes former members of that cast, including Jax Taylor and Brittany Cartwright.
Taylor and Cartwright were previously married and share a son, but have separated. Lori Krebs had worked as a publicist for both of them, making the reported relationship particularly notable within their circle.
Bravo programmes often build episodes around events that emerge while filming is under way. Production can be restarted or extended so that cast members’ reactions and later conversations are included in the series.
