00:00How are you feeling? I know you're going through a lot right now. There's been a lot of ups and downs.
00:04Last time we spoke, you were so optimistic. You always have a great attitude, but how are you
00:09feeling tonight? Yeah, I mean, it's definitely been a hard time of my life. Actually, the most
00:14hard time I've ever had in my life, but I feel like I'm trying to stay positive as I always am,
00:21and I'm trying to just like, you know, focus on my son, and he is like the light of my life.
00:28We're having so much fun together, and it's just, it's a lot, but I'm just smiling my way
00:34through it all. You always do, honestly. Speaking of Cruz, how's co-parenting going?
00:39Anything new with Cruz? Any new milestones? But how is the dynamic with co-parenting?
00:45I will say that Jax is a terrible husband, but a great dad, and you know, I know that if I need
00:52something, if I need help with something, Jax would be there in a heartbeat, and that, you know,
00:56I can count on him for things like that. He loves Cruz, so the co-parenting is our main focus,
01:01so we're trying to make sure that we're okay with that. Everything else is, yeah, yeah.
01:08You know, it's funny you say that because Jax said he would be a great ex-husband. What's
01:12your reaction to that? Like, is that something to brag about? Doesn't really feel like that
01:18should be something to brag about. I'm really a great ex-husband, but you know, we'll see.
01:23Were you nervous or had any hesitations about maybe running into him tonight, and how was that
01:28dynamic between you two? I waited until the last minute to get on the carpet so that we weren't
01:32on the carpet at the same time. And then we're going to have a drink inside off the other side
01:38of the room, right? Yes. I love that. You know, obviously, I'm really proud of you. You were the
01:42one to file for divorce this year. What was the final straw? Walk me through that and how you
01:48were feeling. I can't talk about too much. I've been blocked. Everything's going to be on The
01:54Valley season two, because that is my real life, my real friends, my everything. So we will
02:01definitely see what happens on season two. But you know, it's been a lot. He wasn't great to me,
02:07so you'll see. Do you think him getting out of rehab and kind of, you know, being there for
02:12crews, have you seen any improvements, any changes? I hope. Yeah, time will tell. Time will tell.
02:22Right now, you know, 30 days. I can't decide if that's enough, but we'll see. I love that. We're
02:28staying optimistic. Yeah, staying optimistic. I want the best for him, obviously, even though
02:33can't stand him half the time. Still want the best for him. I don't want anything bad. I really want
02:38him to take everything seriously and better himself, because that's what's important. Yeah,
02:44exactly. Are you guys only communicating right now in regards to crews? How are those logistics
02:48going? He told me that he bought a townhome. Are you getting to keep the... Yeah, for the most part.
02:54Yeah. You're in the main house? Oh, yeah. Finally. Last time I talked to you, you were in an Airbnb.
02:59Oh, yeah. I mean, that's been very, that's been public and obvious. I was in Airbnbs for six
03:03months. So, yeah. I'm so happy for you. Yeah, thanks. I'm so excited about season two. I'm
03:08sorry. The Valley, we're honoring reality TV tonight, and The Valley is the best reality TV
03:13show. Thank you. How does it feel to have all that success? I don't know if you know, but Taylor
03:17Swift and Selena Gomez are huge fans. How does that feel? What's your reaction to that? I mean,
03:21that's kind of crazy. I absolutely love it. Actually, Selena Gomez came to TomTom a couple
03:26times, so I knew she liked the show, but hearing that they talk about it, they text about it,
03:31they call about it, that's amazing. Biggest stars in the world. They know who little old
03:37Britney from Kentucky is. That's crazy. That's incredible. Rihanna, too, though. Rihanna on
03:42the fancy carpet, her talking about it was incredible. That's amazing to me. I know we're
03:47going to see a few VPR cast members come over to The Valley. How is it with Lala and Sheena? How's
03:54that dynamic scene? Love them. They're my best friends. It makes sense. They live in The Valley.
03:59It's close. Our kids are in the same class. We are very close. They're OGs. Sheena's an OG.
04:09I think it all makes sense. Totally. Exactly. Who's rallying around you from the cast during
04:15this hard time? Everybody. Everybody from the cast has had my back, and they are being so
04:20supportive. I just love them all. Literally every single person has been there for me,
04:25and I'm so grateful for that. How could they not? You're the sweetest person on earth.
04:29Thank you. There have been some times where I'm like, whoo, this is a lot, but yeah.
04:34I'm sure it's been challenging. Did you feel like people had to pick sides during filming this
04:40season? I definitely didn't want it to be like that because I'm sure there's some times when
04:46people felt that way, but at the same time, I want Jack to have support and get better and do
04:52everything that he needs to actually better himself, so back and forth on that.
