Brittany Cartwright on dating, dealing w/ mom guilt, plastic surgery and more on Virtual Reali-Tea

I think a lot of people are like, “Oh, Jack’s pushed you into having a bigger size and all that.” He might have, if I look back and watch that episode, like maybe, but at the same time, I wanted bigger boobs. I wanted that and I still wanted bigger boobs. Virtual reality, baby. Britney Cartrite, we are so excited to be reunited with you over Zoom. I really want this to be IRL soon, but we’ll take a Zoom with Britney Cartrite every single day of the week. Um, you’re promoting your partnership with Clorox, which I am obsessed with because girl, you’ve been through some messy situations, right? You have on camera and off camera. So, what do you love so much about this partnership and why does it make sense? We love to see you get in your bag, by the way. Thank you. Yeah. Um, I think it makes sense for me because I actually use it every single day of my life. I have three dogs, a cat, and a four-year-old son. So, it just makes so much sense for me, and it’s something I use every single day. And now that they have their new scent, it’s amazing. Like, I don’t know. It It just like it felt so right. And being able to work with Heather De was amazing as well. Oh my god. I know. Watching that commercial was so fun. Have you had a lot of interaction? It’s so cute. And Heather, we’ve when we hung out with her, she is such a fun vibe and she loves to gossip and have a time. How was working with Hart? She was so sweet. I I kept telling her I was like, I feel so bad having to yell rotten hand rotten hail fancy pants to her because she was just so sweet. But um yeah, I loved it. I loved it. We had a great day. It was great. The commercial turned out so good. Oh my god. So good. Like literally deserves an Emmy. I don’t know if they give Emmys for commercials, but YouTube deserve. Also, Heather Dro and Britney Cartright. That’s not a combination I would immediately think of. It feels a bit random, but it also feels so right. Was this the first time meeting her? Um, I had met her and her husband one time at Catch in LA. Oh, yeah. And that was that was it. And I don’t even know if she remembers that. Actually, we both are we were with podcast one for our podcast. So, she had like she was in the studio right before I was, so I got to meet her for like a second then, too. But yeah, the commercial was the main thing where we actually got I love too that you saw her at catch because her and Terry out and about. I feel they love to work a room and they’re just like, “Hi, hello, hello.” Like she just is such a hilarious energy. Like I don’t know. There’s something about Heather. Yes. She was great. She was amazing. Also to to have your house being that overfilled with like love and fun, dogs, cats, baby, kid, all the all of the things. How have you been finding time for yourself on top of all this? Mhm. Um, well, I mean, I just did my mom makeover, so I feel like that’s the most me thing I have done in a very long time. And I’m not going to lie, there was a there was a little bit of mom guilt that came with it, which I didn’t expect because, you know, me and Cruz, we’re so like our relationship is very like huggy, lovey, playing all day, him jumping on me because he’s a little boy and, you know, everything else. So, there was a little bit of mom guilt in there that I couldn’t do that. But, I’m getting better every day. I’m I’m finally able to like walk around and, you know, move around and do all these things. And he I feel like he’s he knows that. He noticed that about me. And I also think it’s an important thing, too. Even though, of course, the mom guilt is so real and you can’t escape it. It’s a thing, too. You’re doing this so then you can show up better for him and better for yourself, which their part makes you being able to mom to like a higher degree. You know what I mean? Exactly. Like before my boobs were so big that I couldn’t even like move around like side to side and like different things, you know? And I just I feel so much I still have big boobs cuz I I still wanted big boobs. Like let’s be real. But they are so much smaller and I just feel so much lighter and just my stomach and everything. Like I I finally feel because I’ve grown so much as good on the inside as I do on the outside. Yeah. And you know, I’m still healing and I still have a a while to go, but I just I feel so good and I’m very happy. Yeah. Oh, it’s I mean, you’re beaming right now. Now, Britney, I don’t know if you’ve been tapped into what social media has been saying about your mommy makeover, but it feels like everyone is so happy for you. Like, there was this one Tik Tok where this the caption was like, “How it feels to know that Britney removed the breast implants that Jax bought for her and it was like everyone was like having a party on the rooftop.” What is your reaction to everyone’s very joyous reaction to seeing you do something like that for yourself? I’m I’m so grateful. Like I’ve had so much more support than negative comments. You know, negative comments sometimes speak louder and that sucks. But um the support has been amazing. So many people are like, “Yes, do this for you.” You know, it’s something I’ve wanted to do for years. So it’s not something I just decided on a whim like, “Hey, I’m going to have my my mommy makeover.” It was something that I really thought about and it just seemed like the perfect time and the fact that I’m getting so much support about it is incredible to me. I really appreciate that. I think people saw what I went through and how I was talked to and spoken about for so long that they like really hope just like me that it’s something that’s going to help with my sparkle and everything else that I always talk about. Yeah. And so I’m I’m very grateful. And what do you feel about that Britney from even just like a year ago or a few years ago that was really in the emotional trenches? And I don’t know if this was how you felt in that moment like thinking like how can I get out of this or how can I escape this now seeing like you on the other side? You know what I mean? Like does it feel almost unreal that you’ve been able to have you know like your separation your transformation in all of this and peace? Yeah. I mean it’s amazing. I I felt like last year I was so depressed and sad. And even though I knew it was the right thing, it was still very hard on me because leaving somebody that you still loved is harder than leaving somebody that you don’t give a about anymore. Like it’s a different situation for me because I never thought my I thought I would be with this person for the rest of my life. Like I never doubted that and we could have been that way if he would have acted right. But he did it. So for me now, like the way I used to be compared to now is completely different. Like I used to care about every little thing I saw on social media, every little like headline about him, everything else. Like it it broke my heart whenever I would see it. And now I’m like, “Oh god, like what is happening?” Like these poor girl. Like it’s it’s just a completely different feeling. And you know, he made comments about me that were not great. And you know, I did this mommy makeover for me, but it was in the back of my mind of how I was treated. And you know, I think it shows growth in my part that I’m able to like separate the two and be like, you know what? I’m doing this for me. I’m taking out my old boobs. I’m putting new ones in. I’m paying for it myself. I’m taking what I want. And I love that for me. What would the younger version of yourself think of you ultimately deciding to remove those breast implants when you got those breast implants? Was it something that you truly truly wanted? I definitely wanted like breast implants. It like I think that that was clear. I think a lot of people are like, “Oh, Jack’s pushed you into having a bigger size and all that.” He might have. If I look back and watch that episode like maybe, but at the same time, I wanted bigger boobs. I wanted that. And I still wanted bigger boobs. Like it’s not like something that I’m like, “Oh my god, blah blah blah.” after I had my son and breastfed and my weight fluctuating so much, that’s why my boobs kept getting bigger and bigger and bigger. And I think people don’t realize that. Like when I got them done 10 years ago, they didn’t look like how they did before my mommy makeover. You know what I mean? And a lot of people would like, you know, be like, “You need to get your boobs.” I’m like, “It’s not something you can do overnight. I can’t wake up tomorrow and be like, “Oh, my boobs are smaller today.” You’re welcome, people. you know, and something I had to plan out because I do have a son and I do have a household that I take care of completely by myself. I do have three dogs and a cat. I have like, you know, shows and podcasts and everything else. Like, I’m a busy person. So, I had to find the right time and it takes time to do that kind of stuff. But, I’m very proud of myself because it’s been 10 years. It’s time. Every 10 years, you’re supposed to like redo your boobs anyway. And I’m very swollen right now. I’m still very I’m only two and a half weeks out. So, I can’t Yeah. Oh my goodness. I can’t Yeah. I can’t wait to see like the full day. Yeah. Every single week that passes because I’m going to be swollen for a long time. So every week that passes, every day that passes, every time I take a shower, I cry in the mirror because I’m so happy. A And also, it’s good you did that. Even though you’re a California girl, so you kind of have great seasons all the time. It’s great to have it in the fall cuz then by the summer you’ll be ready for some fun, some bikini, a good little party. If I can wear a bikini, I will freak the f out. Like I never thought that was possible for me ever again. And now it is something that like the my doctors did so amazing. So it it you know I’m very happy. A we’re so happy for you. And we’re also very happy for you because we hear you’re back in your single girl era. How’s that going? Okay. How are we feeling? Yeah. I I I love being single. I I you know I think I just really wanted to be like in a relationship for a little bit and it was somebody that I had known for a long time so I felt like it was good but the long distance and the pressure and everything his obligations it was just too much and I’m glad that I feel okay like I I’m just like okay that didn’t suit me so I was able to move on like younger Britney would try to hold on and like keep on keep on keep on keep on so I think it shows a lot of growth for me that I was like okay this isn’t working So, let’s let’s And can I say too, I kind of am happy that you’re in your single era because I feel you deserve it right now, too, because you have had we’ve seen you in a relationship for so long. And of course, like if this other one would have worked out, yay. But I feel you need your own time right now and to kind of like take a moment to be like, what do I want? What do I deserve? And like the reminder of that you deserve it. You know what I mean? Like, do you feel you’re kind of now feeling all that for yourself? Oh, I’ I’ve been feeling that for a while. I think people don’t realize in January two January the 24th will be two years for me. So I think a lot of people don’t realize how long I’ve been single. Yeah, that’s crazy. So So whenever they hear like, “Oh, she’s like dating somebody.” And it only lasted like four months, but it’s like, “Oh, she’s dating somebody.” And also like the media took that before I even wanted that to be public or anything. So it wasn’t even like on me. Wasn’t like I was flaunting a relationship. It was I was trying to like have fun and enjoy my life and it kind of got blasted everywhere before I was even ready for that. So I think people forget I’ve been single for two years. Yeah. Wow. Time is crazy. That is really insane how time. And also I feel that’s fun too cuz a single time like a little flirty moment. Like I feel like you could just kind of go out and just like live your best flirting life right now too which is a little fun. Is anybody from are any of your friends from the valley going to help you wingwoman? You know what I mean? Oh, we’re all wingwoman for each other. Like me, Lala, Michelle, we’re all single right now. Oh, hell yeah. So, yeah. Wait, speaking of Lala, real quick, Britney, what are we making of this Lala versus Gina? I I cannot believe it. I’m so sad about it. What are your thoughts? What’s your take on the matter? Uh, I’m really sad about it, too. I hope that they can like talk to each other in person. I think um talking about it publicly instead of talking to each other is hurting them worse. Yeah. So, I hope at some point they can, you know, talk to each other because they’ve been such good friends for such a long time and I know there’s real love there. Um, but yeah, I think they’re both great people. Lala has been amazing friend to me. Not that she has it, but you know, I see Lala all the time and she’s, you know, she’s thriving. She’s doing incredible. And, um, I just hope that they can like talk as real friends. Like my biggest issue is don’t go on podcasts and social media and things like that and deal with it there. Like if you’re real friends, you talk about it with each other. And also, especially they live so close to each other. I’m like, how are they not just bumping into each other to squash this out in person? They do see each other cuz their kids are still in school together. So, they do see each other. I know. That’s the part that freaks me out is that their kids are still friends. And I just don’t want it to be awkward between the girls because those friendships at that age like really mean so much. So, I hope that at least Ocean and Summer are still seeing each other like Oh, I’m Yes, of course. And it’s like, you know, like I said, I feel like it’s something they could talk about within themselves and hopefully maybe someday be okay. But I think a lot of hurt has been said on, you know, publicly. So, we’ll see how that goes. Right. I mean, I feel like throughout your time on reality TV, Britney, you have played Peacemaker a lot. Do you feel like that is still your approach or do you tend to let people fight their own battles now? Both. Yeah. Okay. Yeah. I’m very much a peacemaker, but I’m very much like sometimes it’s like I my cup is full. Uh so, you know, I’m going through a lot 247 with my life. So, sometimes I can’t involve myself with everything, but it doesn’t mean I don’t care. So, you know, it’s a it’s it’s a lot. I’m always in the middle. Oh, you really are. And I feel we saw that so much on Last Day of the Valley, too, where even like me and Danny having drama, you’re like, “Guys, squash it in person.” And then they would get so mad at you about everything. Yeah. And I’m like, why is everyone I’m like, “How did this fight end with everyone being mad at Britney?” I know. I I think it’s because I do try to see the best in people and they’re like, “No, you can’t see the best in this person because I don’t like them.” You know, so I have to deal with that. Oh my god. Do you know what? When it’s too messy, hand them some Clorox wipes and let them handle it. You know what I’m saying? You know, yeah, that’ll be my thing. Oh, Britney, it’s always so fun to catch up and gab. Uh, we just love you so much. We just love you. I know. And we’re so happy that you’re feeling amazing, looking amazing as always, and like you’re doing you because it’s what you deserve. Thank you. I love you guys, too. Always. I’m so glad I got to talk to you.
