During a recent appearance on E!’s The Daily Pop , Cartwright spoke out about her relationship with Taylor, revealing that she is completely happy with the fun, lighthearted version of her reality star boyfriend.

“My hope for this relationship is that Jax will be the person he is whenever we have so much fun together. I mean, we laugh all night long sometimes. But whenever he goes and acts like an a**hole, that’s not the person I want to be with,” Cartwright explained on the show .

Cartwright also spoke about her relationship with Taylor during an appearance on Watch What Happens Live , telling host Andy Cohen that she decided to take Taylor back, despite his infidelity, because she wanted to follow her heart. She also explained that she is the one who has to live this life and should be free to make her own decisions about who she wants to be with.
