Brittany Cartwright's new boyfriend was slammed by his wife for allegedly dating the reality star during their marriage.
The drama erupted after Cartwright, 36, was spotted out with her new love interest Brandon Hanson on a PDA-filled night out on the town.
But when the photos of the outing were posted to TikTok, a woman purporting to be Hanson's wife, Jasina Stanko, claimed he was still married. 'That man is married,' she wrote in the comments section.
Replying to another person commenting, she later added: 'He's my husband!!!'
When a follower quipped if Stanko had 'dated' Hanson too, she responded: 'I married him. You know him?'

Cartwright's new romance comes amid her contentious divorce battle with her estranged husband.
She filed the legal papers to end their marriage in August 2024 after five years of marriage, citing 'irreconcilable differences.'
The former couple share a four-year-old son named Cruz.
Months prior to Cartwright filing for divorce, she had already revealed to the public that they had been living separately for months.
In February 2024, she went on their joint podcast and announced their split.
'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.'
Afterwards, it was revealed that Taylor had been battling a cocaine addiction and mental health issues, going to rehab after their split.
Prior to dating Hanson, Cartwright also had a fling with her ex's friend Julien Sensley and dated Will Gittens. Taylor also had a fling himself with model Paige Woolen.
