Brittany Cartwright is casually dating musician Will Gittens amid her divorce from Jax Taylor, Page Six is told.
Cartwright and at least one of her “Valley” co-stars attended Gittens’ Los Angeles show late last month.
A video shared on JB Entertainment’s Instagram, the music production studio, shows the R&B singer having a conversation with Cartwright, 36, seemingly at an afterparty.
She smiled as she listened intently to what he was saying.
Gittens appears to be from Trinidad and is a Grammy Award-winning songwriter.
He and Cartwright follow each other on Instagram and have liked many of each other’s posts.
Although she hasn’t mentioned any specific names, the mother of one has recently opened up about entering the dating scene again after her separation from Taylor, 45, with whom she has a 4-year-old son, Cruz.
Last week, Cartwright appeared on her friend and former “Vanderpump Rules” co-star Lala Kent’s podcast, “Give Them Lala,” where she excitedly talked about a mysterious man, who sources from Page Six confirm was Gittens.
Cartwright told Kent she’s “having fun” and has “a crush,” though it’s “nothing serious.”
“We’ll see where it goes,” she teased.
A few minutes later, Kent told her guest, “I like the guy who you fell straight on your ass out of the shower [with], and you guys laughed, and he still wanted to be with you after.”
Cartwright laughed as she let out, “I hate you!”
However, she quickly elaborated on the story, saying, “We were in the shower, butt naked, and it was like I slipped on a banana peel. Like, ‘Whoo!’ I went straight back, and he thought I was gonna hit my head. Oh, it was so embarrassing, but then the way that we laughed about it was so cute.”
The Bravolebrity added that Mr. Wonderful “tried to catch” her, but she was just too mortified to function. “I was like, ‘Don’t look at me!’”
That’s when Kent noted, “I like it. And I like him. He’s talented,” prompting Cartwright to agree, “Yup!”
The mother of two ended that portion of the conversation by saying, “Good for you. I’m gonna move on before I spill way too much!”
Then on Monday’s episode of “The Nikki and Brie Show,” Nikki, who settled her divorce from Artem Chigvintsev in November 2024, asked Cartwright if she’s “started dating” yet.
“A little bit, yeah,” she replied coyly, adding that it’s going “great.”
“I just hadn’t had attention or affection in my marriage for, like, a long time, so I lost a lot of confidence,” she explained. “And being made to feel beautiful again … really helped my confidence come back.”
A source close to Cartwright, however, insists she’s “not dating anyone” and that Gittens is “just a friend.”
Reps for Cartwright and Gittens did not immediately respond to Page Six’s requests for comment.
Cartwright announced her separation from Taylor in February 2024 after nearly five years of marriage.
Shortly after they separated, Page Six revealed that she began secretly hooking up with one of Taylor’s pals, Julian Sensley, which caused Taylor, 45, to go “berserk.”
The fellow “Valley” star then spent the majority of August 2024 at an inpatient facility to tackle what he later admitted was a cocaine addiction.
Upon returning home from the treatment center — where he was diagnosed with bipolar disorder and post-traumatic stress disorder, and learned he’s a narcissist — Taylor was handed divorce papers.
