‘The Valley’ Star Brittany Cartwright is Recovering After Undergoing Undisclosed Surgical Procedure: “Something I’ve Wanted to Do for Years”

“I already married a huge boob, I don’t need to have two attached to me as well.”

Brittany Cartwright is a step closer to getting her “sparkle” back after revealing this week that she recently went under the knife for an undisclosed surgical procedure. 

The Valley star took to Instagram on Monday with a post-op selfie in which she appeared to be sporting a post-surgery bra, and compression bandages on her midsection with surgical drains attached. 

“When they said ‘remove what no longer serves you,’ I took it literally,” Brittany wrote. “In all seriousness, y’all know I always keep it real – and sooo
I did a thing. Something I’ve wanted to do for years and I finally took the step for me. I couldn’t be happier. Still recovering, but feeling stronger (and lighter) every day. Can’t wait to share more with you soon!”

While the former Vanderpump Rules star didn’t reveal what procedure(s) she had done, many fans are speculating that she may have had her breast implants removed or redone and may have had a tummy tuck, as well.  

As fans may remember, Brittany underwent a breast augmentation on ‘Vanderpump Rules’ shortly after she and then-boyfriend Jax Taylor began dating. (Fans of the show likely remember Jax insisting that Brittany go with a larger implant than she originally planned, arguing that he had a say in the matter because he was footing the bill.)

During a Season 4 episode of ‘Vanderpump Rules,’ Brittany tells her friends she wants a “full C [cup] or small D [cup],” but Jax insisted “she’s getting triple D’s!” 

“If I’m going to help finance this, I want ’em how I want ’em,” Jax said during the episode, before going into detail about the shape he wanted Britt’s implants to be.

If ever a man deserved a frying pan to the head, it was Jax during this scene…

“I don’t like p0rn star boobs. Natural teardrop, naturalness,” he insisted to their shocked friends.

“I’m not going to pay for something I don’t like. Nope. Not,” he said.

Brittany shared on her When Reality Hits podcast back in March that she was thinking about going under the knife again, while acknowledging that she gets comments from people “all the time” regarding the size of her breasts. 

“I get comments and stuff about my breasts all the time and it’s so annoying because I had my boobs done, gosh, it’s probably [been] about 10 years ago,” Brittany told listeners. “It’ll be time to get them redone again soon anyway.” 

“I’m always here if you want any suggestions!”

Brittany also explained on the episode that her weight fluctuates “so bad” and her boobs are one of the first places the weight tends to go. Because of this, she said people have often accused her of undergoing a second breast augmentation, despite the fact that she hadn’t. 

“And I’m like, no, this is still the same one,” she said. “They just got a lot bigger after I had my son. And I don’t love them all the time. It’s hard to get dressed. It’s hard to find clothes that work for me and everything.” 

Brittany and her soon-to-be ex-husband Jax welcomed son Cruz in 2021. After scoring a partnership with the weight-loss company Jenny Craig, Brittany went on to reveal a 45-pound weight loss the following year. Years later, on the series premiere of ‘The Valley,’ Brittany revealed that she had gotten liposuction on her chin after years of being “self-conscious about my double chin.” 

Brittany also admitted last year to getting AirSculpt on her abdomen, telling The Daily Mail she “wanted to get my sparkle back” following her split from Jax. 

“I wanted some help with contouring on my lower abdomen because after I had my son, Cruz, my stomach was never the same,” she said. “Yeah, you can say I wanted a revenge body. I wanted to look good after everything I’ve been through. I wanted to get my sparkle back.” 

While Brittany stated earlier this year that she didn’t want to go under the knife until she was done having children, her recent post suggests that she may have had a change of heart.

  1. I really hope she has her natural body back, and quits drinking while she’s at it. Jax was, and still is, such a low rent doofus.
