Kristen Doute dismisses Jax Taylor’s concerns about her pregnancy plans with Luke Broderick, attributing his comments to deflection from his own issues rather than genuine concern for her. Despite experiencing a miscarriage, Kristen and Luke are continuing their efforts to conceive, maintaining a long-distance relationship while planning for a future together, including marriage and appearing on the reality show “The Valley.”
Kristen Doute dismisses Jax Taylor’s concerns about her pregnancy plans as deflection from his own issues, focusing instead on her and Luke Broderick’s journey to parenthood and their relationship.
Kristen Doute is totally ignoring the peanut gallery when it comes to her pregnancy journey. Seriously, she’s all about that “I do me” vibe.
At the season 1 premiere of *The Valley* last month, Jax Taylor was all up in her grill about her baby-making plans with Luke Broderick. But Kristen? She wasn’t feeling the love. Instead of a “protective brother” vibe, she got a “mind your own beeswax” vibe from Jax.
“I felt like that was just Jax deflecting about his own life,” she spilled the tea to *Us Weekly*. According to her, Jax is the king of telling folks how to live their lives. And really, she doesn’t think his comments were about her baby plans at all. It was more like Jax trying to dodge his own drama.
Before the show kicked off in March, Brittany Cartwright dropped a bombshell. She and Jax, 44, were on a break, and she had moved out. Drama alert! Season 1 of *The Valley* is set to dish all the dirt on their split.
Oh, and speaking of drama, Kristen’s romance with Luke Broderick? It’s like something out of a summer fling turned serious. They met at a wedding, hit it off, and bam! Instant connection.
In a chat with Luke, Jax was all, “You sure about having a kid without being married?” But Luke and Kristen are on the same page. For them, being awesome parents trumps a wedding ring.
Kristen’s stance? Marriage is on the cards, but they’re in no rush. “We’re just happy,” she beams.
Now, their main goal is expanding their family. Despite a heartbreaking loss last year, they’re hopeful about the future. Kristen shared their journey, including a miscarriage, with brutal honesty.
The long-distance thing with Luke? They’re making it work. He’s mostly in California but heads back to Colorado now and then. And if *The Valley* gets a season 2, they’re planning to spend more time in Colorado.
Luke made his Bravo debut on *The Valley* earlier this year. Kristen says filming the show hasn’t really changed their relationship. They support each other, but their bond is way deeper than just reality TV.
To gear up for the premiere, Kristen went through an AirSculpt transformation. She wanted to boost her confidence, especially with the spotlight back on her. “I just wanted to feel more confident,” she admits.
Kristen walked away from the procedure feeling amazing. It was all about feeling good in her own skin.
*The Valley* airs on Bravo, folks. Tune in on Tuesdays at 9 p.m. ET, with episodes streaming the next day on Peacock.
And there you have it, straight from Christina Garibaldi’s reporting.
