Brittany, 35, and Jax, 44, spent Sunday, June 16, together at the beach in Huntington Beach, California.

In photos obtained by The U.S. Sun, the now-former couple of nine years took their son, Cruz, three, swimming.

The trio hit the sand and taught Cruz how to swim together at the Hilton Waterfront Resort.

Brittany donned a bright blue one-piece swimsuit under a tight, black wetsuit, and all three seemed to get along at the resort pool.

They held onto their son as he splashed around in the shimmering water.

Jax was covered up in a black “Jax’s” hoodie – the name of his L.A. bar – a cap, and shades for the get-together.

The group charged toward the beach, and Cruz looked amped up with his parents laughing and cheering him on.

At another point, Brittany took a moment to herself to check her phone on a deck chair.

The sighting comes just four months after the pair, who married in 2019, announced their separation.

MESSY ACCUSATIONS

The reconciliation also comes just days after Jax – who recently stepped out with model Paige Woolen – accused Brittney of “sleeping with” someone else.

Jax posted the since-deleted tweet on Wednesday morning, days after revealing the two are open to “dating other people,” according to The Daily Mail.

“You may want to ask Brittany who she’s been sleeping with for the past 4 months….” Jax wrote on his X account, before quickly deleting the post.

Hours later Jax returned to X to share a snap of their son sleeping in bed with a woman, and it appeared to be Brittany next to him.

“Is that what the ‘ask her who she’s been sleeping with for the past 4 months’ meant?'” one bewildered fan asked.

Others assumed Jax’s initial post was a joke, “Now we know who’s she’ been sleeping with.”

A third wrote, “I saw you posting last night about Brittany dating someone for the last 4 months.” Why’d you delete your post”

‘We all know why you posted this…..you wanted us to start buzzing about Brittany in the bed…your embarrassingly predictable Jax,” another person chimed in.

Jax also broke his silence on his outing with model Paige after they were spotted grabbing a bite to eat. The lunch date lasted three hours.

They also attended Ariana Madix’s brother Jeremy’s birthday party held at Jax’s bar.

“I am not dating anyone and I wish you all knew the full story of this situation.. its not what you think,” he wrote on X.

CALLING IT QUITS

Jax and Brittany tied the knot in June 2019 and welcomed their first child – Cruz – in April 2021.

In March 2024, the pair announced their decision to call it quits.

The news could not have come at a worse time because shortly after, their comeback Bravo series, The Valley, premiered.

During his time on VPR, Jax was in a relationship with Brittany.

After leaving the show, they’ve now made their big return to reality TV on The Valley.

The show has thus far documented the former couple’s ups and downs.

Brittany said during one episode that she and Jax were struggling in several areas of their marriage, including their finances and sex life.

Both have been outspoken about the split off-screen as well in the months since the news broke.

In April, Brittany also shared that her “sexless marriage” with Jax made her hit her “breaking point.”

She told Us Weekly that they’ve discussed dating other people amid separation.

“I don’t want to be unhappy for the rest of my life. I don’t want to be in a sexless marriage for the rest of my life. I don’t want to be arguing with my husband for the rest of my life.

“Jax and I are taking time apart and I made the decision to move into another home to take some space for the sake of my mental health,” Brittany revealed on her and Jax’s joint podcast.

She also opened up in an interview with the Daily Mail about when she realized it was time to move on from the relationship.

“For me, it was just kind of like taking up for myself. Having a child really woke me up and lifted a veil a little bit of what I deserve and what I am going to put up with for the rest of my life,” she explained.

“It wasn’t because we were on a TV show. It was just because of the way we were interacting with each other time after time after time.

“And I just knew that I had to… figure out what I want to do for my future and make things a super positive living situation for my son. That’s all that I care about,” Brittany continued.

She also further detailed the financial strain the couple has been under since 2020 when they were fired from Bravo, adding that it was the source of a major “shift” in their marriage
