The conflict with Eady, which Moore described as a “revenge porn” incident, marked one of the most challenging moments in her reality TV career. Reflecting on her behavior, Moore expressed regret and admitted to mishandling the situation. She explained that while her intentions were to protect herself and her child, her actions escalated the conflict unnecessarily.
“Hindsight is always 50-50,” Moore said during the interview. “If I could do it all over again, I believe the photos were very distasteful, and I elevated the situation. I’ve elevated situations before, and I’ve taken full accountability for the things that I’ve done.”
This change in attitude contrasts with Moore’s initial reaction to the incident, where she had strongly defended her actions. Now, she admits that she went too far and is taking full responsibility for her role in the dispute. She also revealed that her actions were driven by her instinct to protect her child, a situation she had never encountered before.
“But when I felt threatened, I’ve never had a child in a situation like this before. So, that’s why it escalated to the point where I was protecting not only myself, but my child,” Moore explained to Hall.
Ongoing Support from Andy Cohen and Bravo
Despite leaving the show after the conflict, Moore’s relationship with Bravo and its executives remains strong. During her conversation with Hall, Moore shared how supportive Andy Cohen has been during this difficult time.
“Yes, I’ve had some conversations. Do you know who has been such a great support system for me during all this? Andy. Andy Cohen. He has called, he has checked on me, he has given me advice, and I feel like he’s a very good friend, and I just appreciate the support,” Moore said.

She further elaborated on the support she received from the Bravo network. “So many people at the network. That was my family for 12 years. I love them, and I feel like they love me. It was just a really unfortunate situation.”
A Potential Comeback
Although Moore did not confirm any plans to return to The Real Housewives of Atlanta, her connection with the network and continued conversations with Cohen suggest that fans might see her back on the show in the future.
For now, viewers can revisit Moore’s journey by streaming all seasons of The Real Housewives of Atlanta on Peacock. Fans are hopeful that her time on the series isn’t truly over and that she might reclaim her spot in the franchise someday.
Jax Taylor is no stranger to relationship struggles. Known for his dramatic personal life on reality TV, Taylor recently opened up about his divorce from Brittany Cartwright. The couple’s relationship began on Vanderpump Rules and later played out on The Valley.
Fans watched their marriage unravel during Season 1 of the spin-off series. Now, Taylor is sharing more details about their split and his efforts to grow as a person.
Speaking on Bravo’s Hot Mic podcast with host Alex Baskin, Taylor addressed his behavior during the marriage. The couple, who are now divorcing, share custody of their young son, Cruz. During the conversation, Taylor admitted that he had been “verbally abusive” towards Cartwright, and fans will witness this aspect of their relationship in Season 2 of The Valley.
Facing Mental Health Challenges
Taylor revealed that he recently took a significant step by checking himself into a mental health facility, where he was diagnosed with PTSD and bipolar disorder. He explained how he reached a breaking point and what led him to seek help.
“I was coming home from the gym, and my buddies were there and just saying, ‘Listen, it’s time for you to go,’” Taylor recounted on the podcast. He continued, “It was a lot of people, and—not to break the fourth wall or anything—but my manager saw me kind of going a little bit off the rails, and they said, ‘Maybe this is a good move for you.’ So, I honestly have to thank them because I was bad. It was really, really bad.”
The experience at the facility made a profound impact on him. “I don’t know where I would be if I didn’t go to this institution,” Taylor admitted. He also revealed that the difficult period in his life coincided with filming for Season 2 of The Valley, a time when his actions were especially harmful.
“As you’ll see in [Season 2] of The Valley, I was in a really dark, dark place,” Taylor said. “I did some really awful things, and what I mean by awful things is I was verbally abusive ….”
Jax Taylor Is Working on Himself
Since his stay at the mental health facility, Taylor has been making strides toward bettering himself. He explained that starting medication for the first time in his life has been transformative.

“I’ve never been on medication in my entire life until I went through the facility, so I think this is playing a huge role,” Taylor shared. “I was very stubborn [in the past]. This is the first time I’ve gotten help. Ever since I’ve been on this medication, it’s been amazing. I’ve had no outbursts; I haven’t been angry. It’s a game-changer.”
Cartwright has not been silent about the situation either. She took to social media to tease her plans to record a podcast, hinting that she would share her perspective on their split.
Fans of The Valley can expect an emotionally charged Season 2 as Taylor’s personal struggles and their impact on his marriage take center stage. Despite the challenges, Taylor appears committed to his journey of personal growth and becoming a better person for himself and his family.
